    If that's the case does anyone have the DPCI for the Protector sets?

    How exactly is having the DCPI useful? Need to know how to utilize it properly myself.

    At some Targets they have keypads on the price scanners to type in the DCPI and check to see if they're in the back. Other times you give the code to an employee for them to check.

    Ah, alright, thank you! ...The temptation to go to Target today is rising. My mind says no because of traffic, but my heart says yes...

    Also if you're curious about whether nearby stores have them and don't want to call just type in the DPCI here and it'll tell you what stores have them:

    Target Inventory Check

    Also I checked it for accuracy by calling the store after using the search function and sure enough it's spot on.

    I started dialing a few numbers up and 204-00-1015 is the next valid DCPI in the series. I think I'll punch it into a scanner next time I go there and see what it's listed as.

    So...
    The same dude is teasing the ninjago summer set list (something regarding the upcoming video game) and has posted the minecraft one.

    I have a feeling he'll post the bionicle one as the last. Let's hope he doesn't.

    Just started fiddling with Nidhiki for the first time in ages, and he's great fun. There's a whole lot of poses you can pull off with him (well, his upper torso, anyways) ranging from "suave and manipulative" (arms behind his back, or just one while he holds a claw forward to gesture with) to "savage" (leaning forward, arms behind him, claws open). Truth be told, I prefer the look of his toy over his look in the film.

    I wonder if we'll get something similar to him in G2.

    He was one of my first bionicle sets and I still love it.

    So I went to Target just now looking for the Protectors, figured I'd see how they look in person and might pick a few up. But I found something even better, the MASTERS :D 

    Just picked up Kopaka and Tahu at Target, and with that I have the DPCI numbers for them:

    Tahu- 204-00-1472
    Kopaka- 204-00-1473

    So I'm guessing Onua is either 1471 or 1473. No sign of Pohatu, Gali or Lewa yet.

    My bad, typo on Kopaka's DPCI then ^^"

    So if Pohatu is 1474, then the current list should be:

    204-00-1471--Onua (can't see them splitting up the bigger sets in the listings)
    204-00-1472--Tahu
    204-00-1473--Kopaka
    204-00-1474--Pohatu
    204-00-1475--Gali or Lewa
    204-00-1476--Gali or Lewa
