Here's a question: All 4 of my Targets within a 25-mile radius of my home have YET to receive HOF 3. I want HOF Sting, which is HOF 4. Is Target going to be putting out HOF 3 first before HOF 4? Or will they jump past it?
I don't want to keep waiting. I have literally been checking Target everyday because I've been looking for the Heenan Family. I'm just wondering if anyone knows how Target works. One store is sitting on 8 HOF Titos, and just this morning had a HOF Eddie Guerrero for sale. 2 other stores have 3 Titos each, and 1 store has 1 Tito.
Do I keep waiting and hope for the best, or should I enlist the help of people here or should I cave and use an auction site? I guess my main concern can be addressed if someone knows if I have to still wait for Target to put up HOF 3 before I get HOF 4.

My philosophy is that if I see it online for a few dollars more, I jump on it. These stores are not trustworthy most of the time.
They skip waves, or when they finally get waves in, someone swoops in and takes them all. Then they never restock. Plus, where I live, all major stores are about 30 minutes away.
It's a great figure, so I would say go for it!

I'd give anything to find a jerry lawler. But I can skip on the rest.

If u didn't find the Heenan Family at your target yet they won't be getting it. They clearanced them out. My local store still had one a few weeks back for $25 but if u scan it is already no longer in their system.

I just did another Target run ater calling and "confirming" that they had others in the inventory/back. I get there within 5 minutes and they don't know why someone told me that because it's not on the floor. I told them to check the back, they said they can through the DPCI, and nothing is inventory.
They did add another 5 Four Horsemen sets. So that's 10 now.
If anyone wants to help me out and bought one to sell, let me know.

My guess would be the next series will be HOF 4 since most likely that's what's sitting at all the distribution centers right now. You're going to have to wait until it sells down more (maybe less than half the peg capacity) before your Target will receive a new case. Another problem too I've noticed at the Target I work at, the counts always seem to be off. Example, since the toy reset the pegs for the basics had been completely empty I scanned it and it was showing an on hand count of 9. I went ahead and adjusted it to 0 and literally two days later we got a case. But this is an issue at a lot of Targets and it's preventing them from receiving anything new.

I wish the Targets by me had knowledgable people like you. I've had better luck in finding TNF figures at my Walmart which is always bone dry of WWE figures. I have 2 by me, and have found everything I've ever needed at Walmart. |

Why debate My debate was more among the lines of Hope and Pray my Target who currently has 9 Titos gets it or Buy it off an Auction Site. I'd rather help someone on this site, so if someone is selling, let me know. |

I think you might have to cave in man. This Hall of Fame series being exclusive to Target has really been frustrating. I'm blame Tito!

Trust me dude, just pull the trigger and buy it. If it were just another Elite or Basic series, I'd say "way it out", but this is a first of it's kind, premium character figure. I recently had to make the same decision on HOF Macho King... See, I could've easily picked up the Mega Maniacs Mach Elite, or even the TNF one. But I wanted a Macho Man that represented my best memories of him.
I ended up paying $35 for it. Before I got the Macho King in my head I was set to spend that $35 credit on the Bo, Bray, Mike 3 figure deal. Hell, I could've gotten the MM Macho and at least 1 other Flashback Elite! But it's a special line that's not as reliable to find, so I made an "Executive Decision" and haven't regretted it for a second.
So do it.
Do it
Dooooo it
Doooooooooooooooooo EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET
Just do it
do it
do it
do it

Hes a jackass, and I imagine Mandark from Dexters Lab is who is posting all those "ahahas" Im surprised people havnt seen HOF3 still. They hit most places at least a year ago, and we skipped when HOF4 shouldve hit (summer/fall) and now its coming out when 5 wouldve. Im guessing 5 will hit pretty quick, Id guess around May/June. |

I have an extra heenan set MOC if you want, or I can open it and ship loose if you would prefer to save on shipping. Pm me if interested. |

Want to know the worst feeling in the world for a toy collector? Yesterday morning I was having issues sleeping so around 4:30 I checked the tracker and saw the Monroe store still had one HoF left. Now the night before my wife said she wanted to go to Target for something for our daughter...So I figured the figure at Monroe was Sting and seeing I wanted another Sting for my MIB/MoC Mattel Sting collection I woke my wife up at 7 and said we would go to Monroe (because the two closer stores had nothing) Anyway we got there at 8:03 as I walked past the registers I saw a man turn the corner by the cards holding both HOF 2-Packs and the last HOF figure...Sting. And to top it off they did have what my wife wanted to get our daughter either. lol We had to go to one of the other two stores l after in the day.

series 4 has only been out for 1 week. Id say give it a few more weeks before caving in lol
give it a chance to get distributed everywhere before calling it quits. Have you asked any of your stores to check the cycle counts to make sure the inventory count is correct and if a case can be ordered or on the way?
