I can see the dust bunnies already forming an orderly line waiting for these to hit the pegs...

I wonder if these will even make it to stores? Every Target around here is clogged with 6 inch Jyns, Cassians, and non-action figure items. The 40th anniversary endcap is just sad, and the rumor is that the DCPI for Black Series stuff is so messed up that the pipeline is filled with cases of Finns and Jyns that will never sell.

Target is going to clearance and discontinue some existing DPCIs for the 6" line. Hopefully that will clear the way for the new stuff for Sept.

Sorry to derail but any chance you have the Target POP! Vader with Tie DPCI, Jayson?

I tried running the 40AC 6" figure DPCI on Brickseek the other day, and NOTHING came back in my area.  I wonder if Target is changing that DPCI, or if they're hip to Brickseek now?

Thanks

And that means it's on the back wall of electronics. Good to know

Star Wars Luke Skywalker The Black Series Centerpiece - $20.98 CLEARANCE

Star Wars Darth Vader The Black Series Centerpiece - $27.19 CLEARANCE


I had already picked up Vader on clearance at Walmart.  But the Target clearance for the Centerpiece edition Luke was too good to pass up.  And I'm really beginning to like this in store pickup option.  Especially when I only buy a single item and I can save on shipping costs!

[Diddly]

These are $15 in Target stores

Those are actually Target.com clearance prices.  I wasn't able to find any of the Lukes in stock in my area.  So that online clearance price worked for me.

Brickseek showed a bunch of stuff on sale at my local Target but when I went there everything was still full price.

Edit: went back and they had just put clearance tags on everything, $15 is a great price for these!

Almost forgot that there was even some Centerpiece news from NYTF...

Linking to Adam's pic of the Kylo Ren Stopping Blaster Bolt scene.

Looks like something that'll maybe translate ok to 3.75" again if not for the footprints in the sand.  If those are ignorable or fillable and I can get the piece for uber clearance, I think it'd look slick for Jakku Jedha or Tatooine for my 3.75" figures. 

Hey, I'm easy.

Surprised they're going forward with this given the performance of the first two. Probably too far along to pull up on it now; I'm interested to see how this and the 6 inch Dewback are presented in April. Will they get any push at all? Drifting here, but also the Class A / Beast assortment - is this a different SKU? Will anyone order these?
