    Man it's so weird seeing Targets with actual product on the shelves, even moreso current product. Like something from the Twilight Zone.

    Pretty sure that Buzzworthy rerelease of Spark Armor Bee with a recolor of Grimlock's garbage truck armor is news.

    As much as I want to go look around, my local Target is damn strict on street dates. They wouldn’t sell MPM Ratchet to me a day before the street date when he was on shelves.

    January 1st for Kingdom and February 1st for SS86 if I remember correctly. No idea on the Buzzworthy stuff.

    I'm not sure if Buzzworthy stuff is street dated. My Target has them, and I was able to purchase him, no problem. (I know people and you know this), but usually if they have a date, they'll ding the system and you can't buy it, unless someone overrides the system or they have a modded barcode sticker... (like some of the Spectrum packaging for the Lightning Collection PR stuff), at least for the times I've tried. That's not to say they don't, but usually my Target is hardcore on not letting stuff out before the date it's supposed to be released. I've even had them check numbers before and the handheld device they carry state STREET DATED and I've had them take stuff from me at the register that was street dated. Yeah, that's actually happened.

    But they're also in the middle of a reset, so it's easy for some things to slip through. And my store was still stocking, so I'll run back by tonight and look and see if more was put out.

    Yeah I always get a bit irked when stuff gets pulled from me at the register. I don’t know when I’ll hit up Target though. My store is slow after the holiday and usually doesn’t have stuff out until February. But I’ve noticed that stuff is usually streetdated at 9pm on the day before release. So you could possibly go ask or find Kingdom stuff tonight and bring it home before tomorrow’s street date.

    They might be soft-dated. If it was a firm date we'd be running in to a GUOP situation where the scanners would block us from buying it.

    Also, sweet Dino Fury brag. ;)

    Oh, now that in interesting... I'll keep that in mind! I already have Cheetor and Blackarachnia from BBTS.

    Ha! Well, I only got it because I'm going to review it with the RyusoulChanger. Hasbro managed to butcher the Ryusouls, but I had to see for myself HOW bad lol!

    i don\'t mind repaints as some are done well. I don\'t even mind reissues but how many times are they going to use the earthrise prime? he\'s also the same prime in netflix and now he\'s in kingdom. I mean it\'s nice to have options and god knows some store suck at stocking but hasbro/takara you are getting better with your figures, stop milking the heck out of this mold and I think it\'s a great prime

    So far nothing in my area.
    Resets appear to be happening though.

    Keep checking. Some movements at my Target. They had a Kingdom Leader this morning, though not much else.
