    Got mine at North Canton.

    Most Targets are rolling them out. 2nd, 7th and 9th. By the 9th, they should be at saturation levels for Target.

    I called them at about 10am and they said they had two cases in the backroom somewhere, not stored in any location yet. So I drove up there and asked straight out. I was told by a floor team member that they were in the back. Guy in the back she asked to get them said they were sold out.

    A lot of stores are waiting to put them out on the upcoming reset.

    I went to the Sawmill Target an hour or two ago and they pulled Rodimus and Optimus out of the back for me. The guy even offered to put one on hold for me until I got there.

    Polaris might just not really be a store that gives a shit.

    BTW- these guys are AWESOME.

    Same as the Legendary Defender Voltron. So, finding these without a visual confirmation is going to be a pain via DPCI.

    Yeah, polaris gave me a reset as the reason and powell target just said they didnt have them. South end sawmill are just out now. I gave up and preordered off of bbts. I just live too far out now for any physical hunting, i will literally save more in gas by paying bbts current prices.

    I know this is a long shot, but if anyone stumbles across a full set of Classic Voltron, and you have no interest, or you found a spare set, please let me know, I'm buying.

    BBTS just asks too much.

    EDIT: Forgot to mention... One pair/case of Leaders at Niles... Even though they told me they didn't have them...

    Two POTP Starscreams at the Lima TRU yesterday, along with Jazz, Swoop, and the Prime Masters themselves. Meijer in Lima had POTP Jazz, Slag, and Swoop, but their toy section was a wreck.

    As of last night, Beavercreek Target only has one POTP Starscream left, Grimlock left with me, both were in the back and I had to give them the DPCI for them to find them.

    Picked up a set of leaders in Canton. I’m sorry but if you are not happy with how a store employee handles your request call the customer service number. Sometimes it’s more just lazy employees or they are new and unsure how to search or what to even do

    Scored a Rodimus at Chapel Hill Target thanks to a kind employee who went back to get me one. Now to hopefully find an Optimus :)

    Will these DPCI numbers work for each class for the entire POTP line or will each wave have there own DPCI number?
    Thanks in advance for the info.

    If Target keeps with the way they did things in the past, those will be for all waves of the different size classes. So the 6020 one should work for all PoTP Leaders.

    Doesn't seem like the Leader Classes have hit Cincy yet, and if so they're sold out. Had an employee check and they said no stores in the area have it, despite Brickseek stating "limited stock" for almost everywhere.

    I'm moreso surprised that these are trickling out to stores before they're available online. Why are Leader classes always behind to get released alongside the rest of the other toys in the wave?

    I have an extra POTP swoop and slug if someone is looking for one. I am near the Dayton Mall TRU


    There is also a 25% off coupon at TRU so its a good deal buying this at TRU

    I had one employee show me the internal code and she said when there is a "t" in front of the location it's set aside to be put out for a reset. When I checked a couple other stores I could see their codes as they pulled them and they all had "t"s...yet those employees just said they didnt have any. My guess is that standard practice is to tell customers to keep checking back but some stores just don't care and let them go.
