The Target on University Parkway in Sarasota had two Ironhides and a Knockout. I say HAD, as I bought one of the Ironhides, and someone right behind me nabbed the other. Might still have the Knockout, though.
Damn, I knew I should've checked that store this weekend... In Tampa for the next few days. Anyone find anything anywhere?
Yesterday afternoon I picked up the last Bomb Burst from the back at Target in Orange City, and the last Ironhide from the back of Sanford Target. Managed to use the 25% Off one toy offer. In Orange City, all the Core pegs were stuffed and included his case mates, so I asked about Bomb Burst. In Sanford the shelf was stocked to the edge with Galvatron, so I asked about Ironhide. TLDR: It pays to ask!
Walters Crossing had Wave 3 Deluxes on Saturday. They are long gone. Nice to actually find something new though.
Don’t worry I found 3 core soundwave repacks without a Bombburst to show at the other Target to make up for finding him there lol
Walmart on SR7/Hillsboro has a pretty decent stock on some stuff. Four Velocitron Scourge, a few SS86 Sludge, the common Velocitron Deluxes, Junkheaps, BB Soundwave, BB Ironhide, BB Arcee and some more common items in between.
Just found Legacy wave 3 at Target in Pinellas Park took Dead End and Pointblank left Crankcase, had to ask for an employee to bring them out back since I only saw crankcase on shelves and was wondering if they had more in the back. (Worth asking) I can only confirm they have 2x Crankcases 1x Skullgrin? (Might be more) Can’t confirm the other deluxes they had since it said 6+ in the back and he was only able to pull 4 out to look at.
Man every time I ask an employee if they have anymore in the back they just scan the item and say they’re all on shelves. Maybe I’m phrasing/asking in the wrong way
Nothing at any of the 5 Targets in St. Pete/Clearwater except 1 SS85 Ironhide at Park St. and a bunch of SS Sideways and Arcee at Clearwater. I just want Dead End man...
I hear you there. Last time, I asked a guy to look up Pointblank's DPCI and he said they had 5 in the back. He went to get one, came out with a Tarantulas and a Wildrider because, and I quote, "Their SKUs match." They have completely different DPCIs from Pointblank. There's only one person at one Target I know of who knows what they're doing.
I can confirm nothing new at Tampa west. Boot ranch as of yesterday had nothing even ordered to replenish stock either. I was told maybe in a week.
From my understanding, Target tracks their inventory by the DPCI (the 087-__-____ code on the shelf tag), not the individual SKU (barcode) on the box (as opposed to Walmart, who tracks them individually). The DPCI is assigned to the entire subline/size class/case assortment. So every Legacy Deluxe is going to come back to the same DPCI, every SS Voyager has the same DPCI, every SS Leader, etc. (The exception being a Target exclusive, those get a specific DPCI) I'm pretty sure that when you give them an individual barcode to scan, it all goes back to that same DPCI, and that's showing the total inventory, not an individual character. Sounds like there might be some terminology hiccups in the mix. For example, SS86 Sludge is the same DPCI as Coronation Starscream, Legacy Galvatron shares one with Blitzwing, SS86 Ironhide shares it with Galvatron. Hope that helps.
