Hi all,
I think the Target HOF line is excellent! But there's a major problem (at least for those of us in the UK) with this set. We don't have a Target, and have to pay scalper prices on eBay to get a hold of these figures.
My suggestion is that these figures could be released in the UK with one of our retailers. Smyths would probably be the best option.
Thanks!

Won't work if it's a Target exclusive which it looks like the line is then they can't sell the HoF set to another retailer.

The US doesn't have Smyths. That makes it the most logical retailer to stock these sets in the UK without breaching their agreement with Target. |

It doesn't matter if we don't have Smyths in the states and you don't have Targets in the UK. If Target has a contract that they are the only retailer that carries them...then they are the only retailer Mattel can sell them to. |

Mattel distribution really is confusing. One minute the US gets something that we don't, then Canada gets something that the US and UK doesn't get, then the UK gets something that the US and Canada don't get. It's perplexing. |

If only you bought multiple sets of Bearer and Kane, you could have traded for anything you wanted...

Elite sets hit the UK first too, alot of people report them at smyths before American retailers |

It's not only the UK without Targets, though.
And besides, if what I've read is correct, Mattel doesn't decide who gets what. It's the retailers.
