Frank is back up on target.com, but hurry!

[toothaction]

As of 9:35 EST:

"Only a few left for shipping"

[palitoy]

dang missed out, I wanted him for a friend so it's not the end of the world.

[toothaction]

Yeah... just noticed a post on FB that the Gorn was around for half a minute, too. Nutty.

[Mary Canary]

I went to look for Gorn for a friend, he was gone already.
Saw Frankenstein was there, but only 3 left in stock?
And then he was gone too.

I don't understand their restock method.
They only put up a case or 2 at a time?
I mean, I have faith that eventually they'll all be on there again.
It just seems weird to me.

More than anything I'd love to speak to someone at Target to explain all of this to me. Not some customer service person, not someone who shops there who thinks they're an expert and definitely not a floor clerk, somebody in logistics that can logically explain that part to me.

Thanks for sharing - I missed it, but appreciate the heads up.

Seriously - if it makes no sense to you, Pali, then wth is Mego's answer for the rest of us?

It's not the same as TRU FUBAR'ing Retro Action, but it's not that far off. At least when Super7 screws the pooch with MOTU releases, there's no middle-man messing it up. It's on them to correct. Mego can't take these matters into their own hands until their allowed to control online sales.

Well crap. At this point I don't think I'll ever get one.

Weird thing is I go to type in 'Frankenstein',the autofill garbage screwed it up. Was spelling it 'Frankknstein'.

Some of it, I have some theories but I'm reluctant to add to the ridiculous amount of bad conspiracies floating around. I will suggest that a lot of this just feels like bad communication. Roll outs are rarely smooth even when micro managed, which this clearly isn't.

The big problem is, I just don't know how the deal is structured and that's probably never going to be publicly revealed, which is not unreasonable.

Damn, missed it!
Ah, well...coming soon to an eBay auction near you, most likely.

I signed up for Target to email me when Frankenstein and The Gorn were back in stock... and the did not email me. :(

Luckily I FINALLY found a Frankenstein at one of my local Targets two days ago, but I still need a Gorn gosh darn it. They did email me about 2 weeks ago when The Gorn went back online very briefly, but they emailed at 10:00 PM, and I didn't see it until around Midnight, and by then it has sold out again.

[Earth 2 Chris]

You would think with its huge Halloween section, Target would have asked for whole cases of Dracula and Frankenstein (and maybe even the Screaming Werewolf) to meet demand during the season. They would have sold like crazy.

I was able to buy one online Sunday night. It said there were only 2 in stock, and by the time I went to post about it here, the other was gone. So yes, they are showing up in small numbers.

[Capt_Kirk]

Dang it! missed again!
