Or a customer went to the store at 8 am and got it before the person assigned to doing the on-line order pickups got to that order. I mean they have more than just figure orders to pull so depending on when they get to that order a customer could have come in and asked an associate to pull it from the back. OR: C - someone (either a customer or an employee) "bought" them before the street-date & scanned a different item; Making their running inventory incorrect and the "3 or 4" shown as in stock were no longer actually there. I know people on here are proud to get these things before the street date, but these are the consequences of doing that. It showed 3 or 4 in stock for each figure so they were not sold before the street date. And Sundays my Target doesn't have morning stockers. I did go out and pick up my Bubba (and it was the chase!) and nothing has changed in the aisles, they still have tags for Muhammed Ali, Sultan, etc, so I am pretty sure someone else has ordered a bunch of these day one. My main interest is to consider how they fill these - if it is first come first serve or some other way. I don't know if you're understanding what I'm suggesting, we've been seeing photos on social media of people buying these all last week; If they "went around" the system, either buy ringing up something different or an employee did some sort of register trickery - the "3 or 4" showing up in the inventory would still appear even though the products left the store. Those figures could have been gone 4-5 days ago and they were essentially stolen, since they weren't rung up properly in the registers. |

Mother Nature called at 2:30AM so I answered. While trying to go back to sleep I hopped on Target's app and it showed "limited stock available for shipping" for Kofi and Roman. Nothing were in my local Targets, but that they were available for shipping tells me that they'll start popping up soon. |

Wow my one of my orders for taker was fulfilled and then canceled 😫😫😫😢😢 hopefully I still am able to get one Lemme tell you how my day went Woke up at 330AM, ordered Taker, went about my day. 9AM it's canceled. I choose the ship for free option. Fulfilled and showed an estimated delivery date of Wednesday. At 7PM, that got canceled due to a "technical issue". Ordered for store pick up for a store 30 minutes out of my way. Canceled at 9PM. I have no options for shipping, picking up in store, etc. I'm happy for those who got it but what a cluster  lol |

My order for shipped is supposedly arriving the 24th, and the shipping label has been printed, but with the way things are going, I'm not going to hold my breath.
For the record, I ordered about 2:06 am EST

Had my initial store order cancelled due to figures being “out of stock”, but was able to order and pick up Hogan and Taker from a different Target. Decided to wait on the Smackdown 4 pack and just pick up Stone Cold from secondary market.

And that is Paul E Dangerously from L18. I could be mistaken, but Brother Love seemed a bit off too..... at least in my area; My pre-order (for delivery) was "delayed"..... so I panicked & tried to buy one at a local Targets and couldn't find it anywhere..... eventually found one while I was on the road for a work meeting, I think in Maryland.... But I don't recall seeing Brother Love around much, other than the one time I found it in Maryland. I cancelled my "delayed" Pre-Order once I found it. I probably stopped looking once I landed mine, though, so I can't say for sure that it wasn't abundant later.... |

I remember buying him early (at MSRP; just like Lou, who was also readily available) thinking may be he would end up like Paul, but he was in clearance abundantly all around me. Picked up a few $8 Loves myself. I also recall seeing hunters I watch on YT finding him at Ollies. |

Picked up a few $8 Loves myself. I also recall seeing hunters I watch on YT finding him at Ollies. Somehow I did luck out & ended up with two Paul E. Dangerously figs.... I did pre-order for delivery..... then I found one (only one) at my local Target before it arrived at my house. The Target one had a slightly damaged box (which I suspect is why it was left un-bought), but I figured I'd open that one & keep the mail-order one MIB (if it should come). And it did come. I rarely buy two of anything anymore but I could see myself getting the MIB Paul E. signed if I ever get that opportunity. I think it would be the only boxed Paul Heyman that I have? |

Scored a bubba and britt on my lunch break today. Definitely wouldn't trust target pick up, I may just be OCD but I had to look at the full pegs of them before finding a decent one. It's crazy how bad QC is in 2024...

I picked up Jamal and Rosie today at the Palisades Center for a friend. I tried to get another Chase Big Bubba for another friend, but unfortunately whoever pulls the store’s pickup orders didn’t update the stock so even though it showed 5 of them in the stockroom they weren’t there according to my guy who went in back for me. And I know he’s not making it up because he’s helped me for years and normally finds what I am looking for in the backroom even if they haven’t been given a backroom spot.
The Spring Valley store has them also, but they weren’t assigned a back room location yet so I told the woman it was ok she didn’t need to go try and find them I’d come back later or tomorrow.
The UE Taker I had to order online and will arrive on the 24th.

Neither my Rosie nor Jamals head stay on. They just roll off with any movement. Rosey also has one of the floppiest chest articulation I've got, and I've gotten some bad ones.

A target employee got the Big Bubba chase out of the back room for me, the only one I'd pay full price for. Waiting on sales to get the others  |
