    I stopped at my local Target today in Kokomo, IN and saw that movie Deluxes were now priced at $6.99. There was a "price cut" sign and not a "temporary price cut" sign. I picked one up and the receipt did not have any indication that it was a sale price (iirc Target has arrows next to sale priced items).

    I snapped a pic of the shelf with my camera phone (sorry its such low quality).

    I can post a pic of the receipt later if people need more proof. Hopefully this isn't YMMV.

    Wonder if the Premiums will be included or if they'll have their own SKU. Only looking to add Salvage and Premium Barricade then I'm putting the movie line to bed!

    Maybe they are moving out the products that have been clogging up the pegs to make room for the last wave of deluxes. It's almost May and Animated will officially be out a month later.

    Haha. Well unless there is more than one Kokomo, IN I suppose the answer is yes. I occasionally post in the Indiana Sightings thread, with my local finds as well (although I haven't been out hunting very much the past few months).

    My Targets are always slow with these deals, but thanks for the heads up.

    This will be awesome for the kitbashers

    Would Big Daddy be available at this price?
    He's the only one of those cybertron repaints I want and I doubt he'll ever appear in the UK.

    Big Daddy is a Walmart exclusive, so unless they drop the price at Walmart as well to counter. The answer would be no. Although I think he is pretty much sold out everywhere.

    Saw this price change as well. I think the bigger concern is that what if target is not ordering movie line toys anymore. Glad I ordered the last two waves from HTS

    I just noticed that at my store last night. I guess it's a good time to pick up Cliffjumper.
