So maybe it's not based on order time. Maybe it's geography? I think Target uses regional shipping centers, so maybe some areas have them in and others don't yet. Either way, I think we'll get our orders filled. But clearly there's a little anxiety for those of us still on backorder lol Possible but I doubt it. All target stores around me have them in stock , but mine still shows b/o. We should be within the same shipping warehouse. We're not but like an hour or so drive difference.

So my Valentine has shipped but not the other 2 yet? But that’s the one I really want so I guess I’ll wait and see.

I feel horrible for any Target employee near the toys today... They are still having flashbacks of the Marvel Legends Red Hulk and every super limited exclusive Funko Pop ever.

That’s what I was thinking when I seen your post. I’m heading to target in fultondale to check them out, I doubt they have any either.

I went 0-5 at Targets in the Birmingham, AL area today. None of them had them out. Only positive was that one of them had Elite 77’s. Snagged a Fiend, Rude, and Viscera so at least I finally got those.

Picked up this morning in Memphis.
I don't know what your guys method of asking an associate for help, but I find it pretty easy.
Lie, lol. Tell them you call guest services earlier to check the DPCI and they said they were in stock. Tell them your kid's (or kid brother's) birthday is coming up and he's really wanting whatever toy you're looking for... My kid hates wrestling. Tell them your out of towners and any help would be appreciated.
There are several reasons why an associate would be overly willing to help in toys, but because you're an adult toy collector is rarely one of them.
Above all else be kind and courteous. And if you know for sure that you are dealing with a turd of an associate, find someone else and stop going to the same person for help.
Good luck and I hope this helps someone today.

Just drove to 4 Targets with no luck. I give up....It shouldn’t be this hard to give a company money.

I went to 5 Targets today. Wow. I'm a nerd. Found nothing I was looking for. Saw one viscera, one razor ramon, one store had a bunch of aj and ronda. Zero rudes, zero fiends, zero, bobby heenans, zero valentines. I had the dcpi codes, I had the popfindr app. I feel defeated. I was also trying to preorder legends 8 at random times overnight to no luck. So disappointing.

I am going to go back in the morning and see if they somehow make it out. I’m off work for the next few weeks so I should be able to snag anything early.

Went to one, was told they had it but it was on the transition pallet. Told them I drove 40 mins and was told it would be on the floor today when I originally came a few days ago. Told me that it’s been in the back for like a week but they have no way to find it. Called another store and they told me the same thing. So weird. Taking it as a sign I don’t need these. I don’t shop at target as it is so I’m not going to go every day looking for them. Oh well.
