Makes no sense that they’re doing 3 Cena, 1 Vader. Who tf decides the cases? Don't worry, it's not even true. At least it's not true for all stores. The 6 Targets that I track in my area all received 2 Cenas and 2 Vaders per store. doesn’t matter, i don’t have a target anyway so it’ll have to be online or third party for me un  ingfortunately |

It makes total sense for a mass retail line. yeah it makes sense to put the most wanted figure 1 per case so it can be sold for 5x+ by scalpers Big Van Vader may be the most wanted figure among collectors, but John Cena is the more wanted by collectors, kids and casual buyers. He is packed 2 or 3 per case and still selling out. |

What do you mean by 'out back' ?
Just the term they use for not being on the shelf, i guess the quotation marks were unnecessary. It was just odd that they were showing stock, the shelves were empty, and when pressed she found two right Vaders away but not a new case of figures that just hadn’t been opened
That was my question -- if they weren't on the shelves, how did you get them? I always hate asking at Target -- probably because you still get looks as a 30 year old collector

I'm not sure about that. The Vader figure looks SOO good and is SO toyetic, I could see it selling well even among non-collectors.

Ha, its even worse at 38! The first Target suggested I call the second one, so I did while I on the way, and the woman at guest services obliged. They were waiting for me by the time i arrived |

I thought I'd want that one the most 'cause it matches my old Hasbro, but I like the regular one just fine. I'd have grabbed him if he were $10 online like Warrior was when I got him (they price match in store), but for some reason it was just Warrior and Orndorff. |
