I wonder if they noticed a mistake at launch and pulled back to correct it.

I's 25 minutes past go time....I'm beginning to think this is yet another botched exclusive.

This is ridiculous.  Seeing claims of people had them in their cart and then showed sold out.

I was one.

Same here.

There are zero eBay auctions though, so I'm thinking it's not a bot issue, it's just they haven't loaded the ******* things onto their site. Glad I spent my lunch break doing this, and not something more rewarding, like jacking off or doing my taxes.

Figure is now showing up in search results as preorders sold out.  Stellar job Target/Hasblo!

I wonder if the Fett going out today may be a mistake. Today is the next drop of info for the weekly bounty program which happens at 1pm et. The preorders usually happen the following day at 1pm et so there might be some miscommunication going on there with when Fett was gonna be available?

I have no clue.  The Droids Fett lasted longer than this....it's so odd that this went in under a second.  If it's true that there was no order limit and bots grabbed them all, it would be easy for Target to cancel any preorders that were more than two.  They've cancelled preorders on my at the drop of a hat!

Sounds reasonable, but I wish we could get a clear answer. This is ******* stupid...40 mins of refreshing a page on Target.

Did anyone get one of these?  I'm guessing if nobody got one here, then they've not actually released them for order yet.  I can't believe we're all failures...

FYI, there's a feedback link on the order page.

There's an auction on ebay, so someone got some.  BIN of $90!

From @yak_face twitter:

"Would this be a bad time to say there is ANOTHER (exclusive?) TVC deluxe item for $26.49 in Target’s system?"

If that is the case, it would explain the price mix-up from the press release... doesn't explain the rest of the screwed up ore-order though.

I guess they did drop the price to $20.99 - which is still gouging.

$90 BIN is RIDICULOUS.

This whole situation is ridiculous!

I'm wondering if something just screwed up on the website and it still hasn't gone live.

Maybe someone just needs to build a Bot for the JD community that can just purchase a couple hundred of each of these preorders and then we can all just divide it up later.

$90 BIN is RIDICULOUS.

Whoops!  Make that $99! + $10 shipping.
