So frustrated with this search for Sonya--but only because I've been reliant on trackers that seem to be all messed up.
Saw an increase in one store yesterday. Went. Now, keep in mind they've had series 66 for months now. I go in. They have series 66 and a fresh case of 56?!? WTH?
Last night, I went to bed, and the tracker showed 0 and 1 for two stores about 45 minutes from me (but 20 minutes from work). I wake up, tracker shows a fresh case in each. I get there and am met with "Yeah it says we have 8, with 4 on the floor but 0 in inventory." What does that even mean? Next question, when you have 0 on the floor in spite of what your Target device says, what do you mean? I was the first one there and the only one who went to the toy section.
Finally, the part that really gets my goose, is that even if they find the cases, I have no clue as to what case is there. My stores have been stuck on series 66 and in one case 62 (since January/February/March iirc). I'm going dark on these searches now. No more trackers.

If they're hitting in California, it'll be on the east coast here in a couple days. I would think either Wednesday or Thursday

I would think either Wednesday or Thursday Not that you're wrong (as I know this is always the case), but there are auction listings and IG photos showing them having hit IL and MA (and a few other East Coasts states that I cannot remember). So it's hitting all over the place at the moment. I'm in South Florida so I know it'll take a while.

Just called my Target (spoke with a very helpful associate) and they had crap for Elites, BUT he said they have a shipment coming in on Wednesday. Praying this is it!

Missed liv and Sonya this morning but I was able to get bobby lashley which is the only one I missed for $7 at Walmart so at least it wasn’t a waste.

It means that either there’s 4 figures that were hidden somewhere in the store or stolen. And if the tracker says the store got a case in, but it’s not on their device yet that means the truck hasn’t been unloaded yet or it’s been unloaded but not scanned/accepted into their systems inventory yet. Since January all the Targets around here don’t unload the trucks before opening anymore. Now it’s done once the store opens and usually isn’t finished until noon.

Ok so I definitely understand what you're saying, and I wish I knew about this early. I'm probably going to hit them again tonight. I'm confused as to the first situation though. The one store that had 0 yesterday, now shows as having 8 today. I go in, nothing on the shelves. I ask the guy, he says their device says we have 8 on the floor but nothing in inventory and that they should be there. It would seem it was scanned but not put out yet. that seems odd since at the very least it should show up as being in inventory if it's waiting to be put out.

Did they have any carts/pallets on the floor to be unloaded? They could have been on those. And if there weren’t any carts/pallets out then they were probably still in the back on one of those carts waiting for them to finish unloading the truck to put out. But because they were going to pushed right from the truck there no “back location” to find them at. If you ever look at the pegs there might be a “stopper disc” on them where you can only put a couple figures on them. So what happens is they may get a case or two in, but those stopper discs only allow for 4 figures to fit. So then they put the rest into the back room which then creates the back room location.

That makes perfect sense. Thanks PJ. (I saw some carts out and about with boxes, but didn't think to look since they weren't really "near" the toy section. But its entirely possible they were on them. Just wanted to run in and run out without exploring.

I hope, I really hope I can get that liv figure. I don't know if i will though.
I am not paying scalper bay prices though. So I might have to pass on this without a choice.

Having 8-5/7 work hours makes it near impossible for me to get to the stores early enough in the am if the trackers show a jump of numbers. If the stores unpack at night after close or early AM, then i got a shot
