I dropped by 2 Ross stores today and they had a ton of random new figures out at really low prices.Β 

Each had Havok and Vulcans for $6 apiece. They also had Archive Chewbacca, Boussh Leia, and Tarkin plus Lightning Collection MMPR Black Ranger Adam, Zeo Cog, and a blue shark ranger at that price. One had that yellow/red morphed swapped Trini/Jason 2-pack for $12.Β 

There was DC Multiverse Arkham Knight, Duke Batman and The Batman movie Batcycle for $6 apiece, plus Blight, Static Shock, and Zoe for $7.

A Burlington Coat factory had $8 for the entire Bonebreaker wave minus hot claws Wolverine. Weirdly also had Cobra Island Roadblock at that price too.Β 

Targets shelves here got emptied out same-day for the ML clearances last Friday. The stock trackers still make it seem like there wasn’t any sales movement all week so I dunno if they all got moved by vendors or stuck in some back room area with the recent reset. Got a Hawkeye & Skrull set that were misplaced though.Β

Ollie's update - stopped by a store tonight on the way home from a youth football game my daughter was cheering at and found a bunch of MCU Baron Zemo and Stealth Suit Captain Carter that I hadn't seen before.

No good 6-inch Joes but they had the Walmart retro Hiss tank with Rip It for $12.99.

Apparently there are also reports that Ollie's is getting Fortnite Snake Eyes as well.

The Target sale is live, but right now it isn't applying to any Hasbro action figures I could find--not Legends, nor Star Wars Black Series, nor GI Joe, nor Indiana Jones.Β  😳 😬Β  They're not listed as an exclusion in the terms of the sale so I have to assume for now that it's just another screw-up in the long line of screw-ups Target has made over the past year or so.Β  🙄Β

I see it applying to some already-discounted figures from older waves - Disney+ Khonshu wave, Controller, Retro X-Men, etc: https://www.target.com/pl/170179018?facetedValue=5xmps&ignoreBrandExactness=true&moveTo=product-list-grid&Nao=24

None of the more recent stuff though!

Yeah nothing I actually want has the discount offer. Well, the Cho wave but they all showΒ as sold out.

On a side note, the Xmen β€˜97 and D+ Stomper waves have listings on Target now. And the exclusive Wanda is available to purchase

Yeah really not much worth shelling out for even at 25% off imo. I’d go for the Monica/doom set but my local has 4 of those sets in the clearance aisle marked at full price - feels like they’ll be marked down soon so may as well wait a bit

orb, rose, tarantula are just characters I can live without unless they are marked down furtherΒ

Maybe Target finally wised up and set it so the 10/25 off deal only applies to figures that have been out a certain amount of time. It has always been a little too good to be true that you could apply that discount to anything - including preorders. Not too surprised if they finally buttoned it up, though it is disappointing.

You're giving the folks at Target way too much credit.

The new McFarlane stuff qualifies, as does the just released Map Room Indy.

Also, I just checked their site to see if I had the name right on the Indy figure and the searches aren't working. Maybe there's a number of snafus and they're working on it behind the scenes?

Still can't get a search to work on Target's site.

A year ago I would have thought that, but in 2023 their constant snafus RARELY ever get fixed.Β  They're asleep at the wheel most of the time.
