Translation; Look dude, I get $5.15 an hour.  If it's not out, I'm not going to look for it for you.

Seriously some days I hate Target, others I don't.  I try not to overuse my DPCI Karma so I usually stick to exclusives...  I've found if you go to Customer Service they never turn you away though...  It's the stockers that don't want to lend a hand usually.  They're 50/50 I've found though, not all being bad, just frustrating when you get tails when you called heads.

This is a really stupid question. I've never used the DCPI thing so bear with me:

Do you just go to the customer service counter, ask them for the item w/ that number and when they (hopefully) bring it out you just pick through the box for what you want? Is Target the only place this works? Would it work @ TRU with the SKN #?

I'll probably just wait for this wave to hit my Target, I only want one figure- Endor Leia. She looks great loose! Love the Endor General garb under her poncho.

That really isn't a stupid question at all, you just haven't ever used the trick before.  

What I normally do is first enter the DCPI into one of those price scanners to see if they even have it in back. If they don't I figure it isn't worth my time asking. If they do I'll usually ask one of the stockers if they can check it for me. No one has ever said no to that. Most everytime they are nice and will go get it for me. A few times you will get the certain guys that won't because it breaks the "Collecters Item" poloicy they have in place. When that happens I'll usually ask someone in Housewares or the next department over, and they will normally go check.

You can also try it at the Customer Service counter, they are usually the best about it I've found.

OMG, Leia looks wonderful, just what I was hoping for to put in my rebel fleet meeting diorama!!  IG-88's scale looks terrific, but WHY does Hasbro insist on wide stances?!

I called Target today, and they told the street date was today. I went down to get them, but they weren't out. The same lady I spoke to on the phone said they'd be put out over night, and I could get them tomorrow. :P I told a manger what happened, and they put a case out.

I am in love with Bossk. :-* Best thing since VTSC Greedo! 88's pretty cherry too.

Picked these up tonight too, I don't value any one figure over any other-they're all outstanding to me.
