I missed out when RSC had him available, which was dumb on my part.... it's one of my favorite figures yet. So, I got tired of waiting(and its back ordered until Mid-July)...
So i've been searching the web with no luck, until today. Target.com has him and Piper available for 19.99. So I ordered Jericho.
However, when you search 'availability' for Jericho at a local Target. It says he is in stock and available. I went to the local Target, and of course all they have is HHH/HBK. I REALLLLY hope I do not get sent a HHH or HBK!
Has anyone else ordered from Target online?

If you ordered Jericho, I will eat my hat if they send you something other than Jericho.

lol.... well it said he was available in store. So, I went down to the store, showed him the printed out 'Jericho: Available' page with the DPCI, UPC, etc. and he comes out of the backroom with a HHH and HBK. So, you never know.
The Mattel's can get confusing due to the 'Assortments' having all the same numbers.

The same thing happened to me. The Bar Code Target has issued for the EG is the same for all of them, series 1 or two. I did the same thing about 3 weeks ago, and the guy walked up with 2 Reys and a HBK.

Yeah I had A similar problem when I was on Targets website looking for Elite 1 Mysterio and all targets listed they were available in store which ofcourse I later found out that its not the figure or even the series but the entire line of Elite. They should still send you Jericho though, i've never seen A problem with that.

Also- some Targets in my area charge 9.99 for basics, 17.99 for two-packs, and 19.99 for EGs...
While a Target right down the street chargers 10.99 for basics, 20.99 for 2 packs, and 21.99 for EGs...
As good as Target is(as compared to Wal-Mart), their methods with WWE figs are pretty unorganized.

The Mattel's can get confusing due to the 'Assortments' having all the same numbers. That's the exact reason it tells you that the store has it in stock. As long as that Target has got in a previous set it will show everything else as being at your local store even though they may not be. They will send you the correct figure though you have no need to worry. As far as actually being in the retail stores I think the only place people have been spotting them is TRU so far.

If people are just starting to spot them in TRUs, then here in So. Fla we wont be getting them for a while. Seems like we get everything last down here. Wal-Marts still haven't got Basic 3. Doubt they ever will considering they just got RR.

My fiancee worked at TRU for years and what they did was changed all the numbers of figures of the same assortment to one number. Here is an example: Basic WWE is all 1 Elite WWE is all 2 2 Pack are all 3 The ECW, Raw, and Smackdown rings are 4 Entrance Greats are all 5
This was done I think to make inventory easier for all stores instead of having to count Basic series 1, 2, 3, etc. they just count all figures as one series.

I order from there all the time. What you ordered is what you will get.

All the EG are listed with the same DPCI# at Target so they don't know what the store has in stock until you get there. But you should get the one you ordered online. Of course if it was KMart.com I'd say avoid them as they've never once got an order of mine right.
