At Lunch today I stopped by a smaller Target and looked ...of course none. So I asked an employee (actualy found one that knew what i was looking for) He said they dont have them yet and he has been waiting for the Star Trek ones himself. He said when he asked his district mgr he was told the Larger volume stores and the websites were getting them first and all the other stores were second. He said he was told they might get them by next week in his store but keep checking. -
Stopped in at one where they're listed as "in stock". Worker said they have them somewhere in the back, won''t be out for at least anther day and "there's 12".
So What does that mean? I haven't seen anyone encounter such a low number yet, and if it's three to a case for 8-inch, how is that even possible? He didn't elaborate, so I'm guessing he either means 12 cases or it's either only the 14-inch they're getting or boxsets. Very odd.
Edit: I just saw Lonnie's pic of the case assortment. So one store will have two cases of 8-inch, since he used a master DPCI. I think I'm beginning to understand their language.Last edited by hedrap; Aug 2, '18, 12:53 PM.Leave a comment:

I went to the local one(again) this morning. they had the end cap up with the price tags and Mego corp. banner on top. no product and the clerk insisted they don't have them yet, even though the website say they are in stock at that store. oh well, considering the last clerk I had check told me they would not get them at all, at least this is a step closer. maybe tomorrow or Saturday they will have them. I am just getting sick of driving all the way over there every damn day(half hour each way). I know I could call, but the clerks on the floor are useless, I always have to pull the product up on my phone for them to even consider looking for it, so I don't have any faith in whoever would answer the phoneLeave a comment:

Found what I needed in SoCal Target. Someone beat me to the display, and I saw someone buying all the Fonzie and Action Jacksons. But I got all the Trek and Dracula I needed (one of each), withs everal Mirror sets, one Drac and one Sulu left behind.
Quality could be better, and Sulus collar sticks up weirdly (one I left behind had black smudges all over the shirt) and I thought it would be fixed when I opened it, but it still sticks up. Everybody's right arm seems wonky. And Kirks hair is really dark, almost black. Still overall happy and looking forward for more, need a new Bones, Scotty and Uhura in classic uniforms.
Nobody was looking at the sitcom figures left behind.Leave a comment:

Found " one " 14 inch Wonder Woman in the back box of Target and snagged it. They only had "one" of each, ZOD, WW, Bats and Harley

I went to the Target site and had them email me if Dracula became available again. A few minutes later I got an email saying he was back in stock but he wasn't. Maybe when Marty said they were going mass, he meant mass confusion.

Checking every day, still no luck. I'm a little bummed but not fretting about it.
I guess because there was nothing I desperately wanted to badly. I do want the Star Trek: Mirror, Mirror set, but the rest I can hold out for. I already have 3 EMCE Chekov's and 3 Sulu's, but would pick them both up if I saw them in a store. I also want Fonzie...but I'll take my chances he'll show up in my local Target.
Now if the Romulan Commander had come out in this wave, I might be panicking!
Maybe enough to cave into the eBay scalpers.

Without mentioning any spoilers, I'm going to recommend you buy that "Mirror" set.Thanks for the tip for the Target website. I wouldn't mind getting the "Mirror" set although if I knew they might do the whole "Mirror" crew that would be even more incentive but with Mego trying mass market again nothing is a sure bet right now. Besides the "Mirror" set and Dracula, Action Jackson is one I would consider buying but he isn't on my "want" list just yet.
