Woke up this morning to find Popfindr jumped up to 8! Soooo
Happy early birthday to me! Target worker had a box of them unpacked laying on a cart with all of other things he was in the midst of stocking, he asked if I needed anything, I pointed out the box and he cut it open and unearthed Aleister for me. If anyone is in the East Peoria area, popfindr is still reading 7 so go for it.

I don't think you'll ever see drew/black hanging around on pegs lol Lol I can’t even imagine going to target as a casual visit and shockingly see black and Drew, it just doesn’t seem real 😂 |

I'm so happy to be over with this target madness. Got both McIntyre and Black in 2 different trades last week and they were equal trades. None of that scalper crap for sure. Just be patient everyone!

Popfindr shows an increase from 1 to 9. Gonna try my luck at lunchtime... The 1 to 9 jump resulted in Shinsuke, Dawson, and two Rusevs on the pegs.  |

The jump in quantity would be a new case scanned into the system. It wouldn’t be a mix of figures from older series. What’s the quantity say now? Sounds to me like you missed them. |

That’s the game we call “figure hunting”. Worked the same way as it did in the 90’s and 2000’s. Only difference now, if there’s programs/sites that help out a little. |

I assume it's newly arrived and still in the back, but why would the system show 9 instead of 12 if there's four on the pegs? |

Which is my assumption. There’s a few stores in Philly that read numbers higher than they have and some that read lower. One of the stores show that it has, like, 3 on hand. I walk in there and there’s 2 Embers, 4 Rusevs, 1 Roode and 2-3 Romans... confusing. |

Ask anyone who has been looking for Mattel DC Multiverse and Batman Missions figures for the last month or two. Stores are receiving 2-4 pieces from the distribution center instead of full cases. Which makes me think they have low inventory at the Distribution Centers and are trying to get it in as many stores in their district as possible until the distribution center receive their next shipment. |

All it takes is one errant employee with a lack of basic familiarity with any one particular product to throw the whole thing askew, and from there, the process just snowballs as actual on-hands cycle in and out, shrink occurs, etc. Once upon a time, most of these major retailers followed a certain chain of command block where below a certain grade of pay and authority, physical on-hands couldn't be corrected, but as processes became more automated and hand-held devices became more widely distributed for employee use, the process broke down. I was a hardlines department lead for a major retailer for a few years there, and my god, could an indirect hire come in and just make a complete mess of my inventory. |

I am happy that everyone got their Aleister Black, Drew McIntyre, and Ruby Riott figures. I am gonna give up hunting these down, it's not worth the headache and transportation cost and my local Targets kinda suck when it comes to get new crap in and when I went to Target yesterday the employees didn't physically check the backroom if they have any in stock but rellied on a  ing hand handled iPhone looking thing some customer service right.  |

I was literally going to give up the hunt today, but I found Black and Dain today! Yes! Didn’t have McIntyre but he is going to get another elite down the road so I’ll wait for that.
I found them at the Target in Burbank, they have one more Black and Dain and two Riots left.
So my Burbank figure hunters, they are out there!

That hand held tells them what’s in the store and in the back. They type in/search the DPCI and it tells them how many are on the floor and if there’s any inventory in the back. |

Thank you for replying but I am done looking for this set, if it's meant for me to have it I would have had it during my Target runs. |
