    Technically they aren’t set for shelving yet, but places that are getting them in are putting them out. Likely early August is when we’ll really start seeing them being put on the shelves, and they seem to come in batches of eight, so good chance there will be plenty available.

    The price of origin bb seem to vary around the country.
    My PA area is 22.99 like in your pic.
    Some areas are finding 25.99 at checkout.
    One State I saw in sightings last night rang up 28.99.
    With aisle tag to match.
    Had this discrepancy in local target's before.
    One local target had all TF's 1-2 bucks higher than the other local target's.
    Target will price match their own online prices.
    If an online entry can be found.

    I can confirm the insanity of the price. Seriously Hasbro ( and/or Target)?

    It's not Hasbro, it's Target. There's been mixed reports of the prices ranging from $23-$28. It's MSRP is $22.99, so Target is the ones being screwey

    I've seen no stock on shelves yet, but my local Target (Lee County, SW FL) had the shelf/hook tag for Origin Bee @ $22.99. Also had tags for the Buzzworthy Battle Packs (2 pks) @ $41.99 and the Worlds Collide 4pk @ $84.99.

    Found mine at a nearby Target (Camillus NY) and got it for 22.99. About the price of a current deluxe. They have a few if anyone is in the area.

    They had a SKU for the World's collide set, but none available.

    Though I did grabs some MOTU minis, and Hot Wheels Battle Ram to top off the trip.

    Plus, Rescue Bots has been doing it for over a decade, and Cyberverse more recently. It's fine.

    Just grabbed what may have been the last one from the Niles Target.
    App said there were 2.
    I arrived, there was one.
    And now there are none.

    I discovered last night after opening mine that his jetpack is designed specifically to be used for the Cliffjumper mold, as not only is it hollowed out in the exact same shape as the wheels, it has slots for the tabs on that figures back. Features not present on Origin Bee himself.
