I picked up a Jetfire tonight at the Target in Mission, KS. They're out there!

Thanks, JPJB. The old bastard is currently decorating my desk, they had 2 more on display!

Crap. >_< Where in the hell am I going to come up with the dough? Next week, sure. This week? No.

C'mon HTS. Get it in stock. C'mon...

One of our resident Target employees can chime in to confirm, but I believe their policy states that if there are NO items from a particular DPCI on the shelf, they CAN get more from the back. If there are ALREADY items on the shelf from that particular DPCI (i.e., a bunch of Leader Megs or Primes), they will not go find a specific toy from the back. It's always possible you could find someone willing to go dig for Jetfire for you, but policy is against it (assuming I understand the policy correctly).

You are correct sir. Some targets have the policy signs that state we will not search the backroom for particular figures of an assortment.

But honestly, my take on it is this; scalper or collector or child, your money keeps me employed. I may be fair and tell guests there's a limit on certain "collectibles," but that's just me trying to keep shit fair and no official target policy.

also, my level of apathy towards Target has risen in the past 6 months or so, so I go into the back for anything anytime. Mind you, I am the exception to the rule

A litle while before he gets to Canada, which is a good thing. I still need The Fallen,Demolisher, SOundwave, Ironhide, Ratchet, Sideswipe, Rampage, Bumblebee and Leader Megs. Not to mention all the Animated guys I still need....

FYI Im talking about the Voyager and Deluxe guys.

Very cool figure! I can't wait to put this guy with Prime! I won't have any dough until July 3rd though, dammit!

Dude! That is sweet! Especially after seeing him in action during the movie! I actually got my idea from a pic you left on your original review. Now I may have to take this pic into advisement...I swear I MUST find a way to mod his legs somewhat so he is not leaning so far foward tho. I know he's secure but it makes me nervous.
