Title: 4/30 Target Reset
Post by: Nirvana on April 30, 2006, 08:49 PM
I've heard several reports that Target was supposed to reset today with Skirmish in Senate, Greivous, rereleased vehicles, and VTSC. Mine has with everything stated above. Just a little heads up to all of you who haven't been at Target for a while.

I checked today, they had absolutley nothing. Just the same Derlins, Ice Age 2 Figure Packs, Hoth Vaders, and Sun Facs.

Mine refused to bring anything out.

Mine had two things. Jack and ****.

I suppose they'll be out this week, like around Wednesday, which means I'll have to go every damn day between school and work to check.

I won't be buying the VTSC from Target, since they're three dollars cheaper everywhere else, but I'd like to get a Skirmish set before they all disappear because Target nevers orders enough of their own damn exclusives.

I got my stuff from Target about two weeks before they were suppossed to be out and have heard many others saying the same thing. I can only guess that most Targets are now out of their items that should have gone out today.

Mine was well stocked with both of those items as well.  Looks like our stores follow the same planogram.

Count me in as part of the No Reset club. It's ridiculous that Target refuses to sell/stock things before a certain date, then continues to not sell/stock said items on said date.

Didn't even bother checking today... used the DCPI numbers for the first time ever last week and it worked, though I'm not spending $12 for VSTC figures when Walmart is 2 bucks cheaper.

Mine had Jack & **** as well, however before I got there Jack had just left work.

I only found ****.

I checked both of our Targets this weekend too, looking for the Senate Battle Pack, but neither had it.  The store closest to us did do their reset on Friday, and had the VTSC (as well as newer stuff like Superman Returns and Pirates of the Caribbean figures), but no sign of the Senate Pack.  The other Target across town didn't have anything new - no reset - old news.  I'm hoping I don't miss out on the Senate pack, but with gas prices the way they are I'm not going to drive over there every day either.  Nice to see some new stuff out on the pegs though.  It was nice to see VTSC, although I already bought most of what I want from WM and TRU for $2+ cheaper.  I'd normally rather give the business to Target, but the other stores had them out sooner, in greater quantities (in the case of WM), and a fair amount cheaper.

That's what I was thinking.

Nough said right there.  Ironically that was what I exclaimed to myself yesterday morning at 8:30am in Target.

I stopped by a local Target today for the 1st time in 2 weeks. They had reset and had Grevious out on the pegs, along with 2 VTSC Hans.  The basic figures had gone for 2 columns of figures to one, and they were filled with all BUGS! Ran the numbers and they had figures to bring out in the back but won't til the bugs are done.

As in insects and spiders and the like?

Stopped by a Target earlier... looks like they reset everything BUT Basic Figures.

Still nothing here. Gotta love Target setting a street date and never abiding by it.

I don't care anymore. I've almost lost interest in owning their exclusives, and now, save for some VTSC stuff, I'm caught up finally. I can get the VTSC at WM since they don't give a rip about street dates, plus the figures were cheaper.

Saw the reset.  They scooted the SW section down 4 or 6 feet and put in a Superman section.  Big whoop.

Some stores have a lot of POTC product out now. Wonder how well it'll move. Due to an appointment, I made a big run yesterday hitting all but one of the Target's in my area (6 out of 7) All but one I visted had reset.

Bitch and ye shall receive. I found the exclusives today, and even after my pissy little rant yesterday, I bought them.

They actually had a pretty good number of Skirmish sets, but I doubt I'll get more than the one I have. It'd have been great to have it full of Shockies, but, eh. Still undecided as to what to do with Palpatine and Yoda.

Well, I hadn't been there before April 30th, but there were four Demise of Grievous figures and two VTSC figures... and a handful of basic figures, half of them Bib Fortuna of course.

I'm just happy I got VTSC Han ;)

I'm rather unexcited by the new Target Exclusives and basic figures, but I must say, the TRU CW line has revived my interest in collecting. I'll be watching TRUs, not Targets nor Walmarts, this summer. :)
Title: Re: 4/30 Target Reset
Post by: Nirvana on May 4, 2006, 07:42 PM
Well, I'm starting to lean towards TRU a little, although I know some kids from High School that work there.  :(

I'll probably resort to buying the BP online and hoping to find the CW Gunship in retail.

Target today had about 8 or 9 Senate battle packs and plenty of Hoth Vaders and Gummi Mundis.

Post by: Jesse James on May 5, 2006, 04:49 AM
Mine have gone through the reset finally...  Not much there though.  One Skirmish pack and no VTSC on the pegs.  It's surprising really to see so little after a reset.  I wonder if the VTSC were just all pulled from the back already or what?  No Grievous either...

And a wall of Derlin and Vader on the basic pegs...   How the hell Vader keeps surfacing when he doesn't move THAT fast is beyond me.  He didn't blow out the door last year either...  Especially at WM.  Now Target's got the Vader army to deal with...  Ugh.

My 2 local Targets are pegwarming-central overflowing with Vtsc, SITS and DOGGS stuff ::).

Stores have looked the same with their stock since 4/30 :P
