    Hey guys, down for the Kings playoffs.

    Sightings from today: We were way out in Simi Valley (Reagan Library). The Target and WM there had zilch.

    Popped-by the 2 Pasadena Targets. The one close to Arclight had only Legends Mirage and SW. Drove 3mi east and found a bunch of newer stuff. Got the last 1 of: Dreadwing, IH. Are these $9.89 everywhere? Grabbed the four Legends ($4.99 sign but scanned wrong). Grabbed Deluxe KO and HS. Why are they $15.29? Price gouge?

    General question: Does Target distinguish different Wave members by DCPI / UPC or does scanning a W1 BB or a W3 KO when it says 'more in storeroom: Yes' not mean much?

    All waves of a size class have the same DCPI/UPC number, like a wave 1 'Bee and wave 3 Hot Shot from the deluxe class. When a scanner says "More in stock room", it won't mean much and could be just some more wave 1, even if you scan a wave 3 figure.

    Yeah, the DPCI is really only useful when a new toyline begins (or new size class in an existing toy line).

    They won't really be helpful for Prime toys again until the Cyberverse vehicles start coming out. Then after that, the Weaponizers and that absolutely ridiculous Optimus basebot.

    Depending which area the Target is, yes some have different prices on them, not just TF, also on other figures as well.

    We usually are some of the last places to get stuff, I haven't even seen a Vehicon or the new wave of Prime voyagers yet.

    Hey, folks...haven't posted in a while. Kinda stopped after DOTM and haven't picked up on Prime series. I've seen BB pretty much everywhere but finally saw OP and Megs Prime at Target West Hollywood. Also saw Deluxe Prime with trailer for $35.00?!?!?! Deluxe figures usually sell for around $12.00 so that means the trailer is $23.00?!?!

    Rick, there are two TRU that he is referring to:
    Bhaalistik is correct that the first one is at the corner of Almaden Expressway and Blossom Hill Blvd. The second is at the Plant which is on the corner of Curtner/Tully (depends on which direction you are coming from) and Monetery Highway.

    Nothing new at the Buena Park WM or TRU or the Anaheim target that's near Phat Collectibles.
