Please post your DPCI findings here.

I bought Sentinel Prime with this one:

Leader Class 087-06-2294

That should get you any of the Leaders, you just tell them the specifics of which one you want.

I hope that helps someone.

I AM LOOKING FOR THE VOYAGER CLASS DPCI NUMBER SO I CAN GET SHOCKWAVE.

Please let me know if you can help.

Unfortunately, Target is on to us. All the Targets I went to tonight were a bust (4 of them!).

They are getting ready for a reset and are not letting anything out of the stock room. All the Transformers that have been languishing for months have been put on the endcaps and clearanced.

So, looks like I'll be at Target on the 16th at 8AM. Wow, I haven't done that since 2005 for Star Wars!

Be careful about going in with DPCI numbers.

I got nailed at Target and was escorted out of the store for it.

Apparently they're really cracking down on collectors.

Hey, if they want to treat me like a shoplifter and escort me out, there are other stores that will get the toy for me. I'm not worried about it at all, it's just toys for chrissakes. This is the age of information, including getting DPCI's off the Internet.

That's what I thought. I mean I only wanted to know if they had a toy, but treated me like I was a criminal for walking into a store with a ID number for them to find it.

I would talk to the manager about that. If the manager was involved, then talk to the regional director or corporate HQ.

What honestly puzzles me about target stores is as follows: their are red square price scanners all over the store hanging off the walls/post. these price scanners list the price & IF THEIR IS ANY EXTRA MERCHANDISE SITTING IN THE BACK STOCK ROOM. why post if their's stock in the back stock room on the customer scanners,if the employees refuse to get the stuff in the back stock room.

Exactly. Those scanners DISPLAY THE DPCI NUMBER when something is scanned. If they don't want us knowing what is in the stock room location, then it looks like an overhaul of their entire system is in order. So stupid.

Funny story,about a month ago. I was really looking for a RTS Wreckgar at my local target. So I scanned another RTS toy on the price scanners. the scanner said more items were in the back stock room.

I knew the target store employees would not bring anything new out. because I tried asking previoys times & got the same responses. because the pegs were fully stocked. So I grabbed about 25 RTS deluxes & placed them in another aisle behind a few race track sets.

I then got a target store employee & explained I was looking for RTS wreckgar. I further explained the scanner said more were in the back stock room. ofcause the store employees said they could only bring out new stuff if the pegs are empty.

I then explained their were no other RTS deluxes on the shelf & more had to be brought out to fill up the pegs.

Funny,even after all that,I still got a song & a dance. the target employees still refused to bring out a new box to replenses/fill up the RTS deluxe pegs.

Even funnier,I left all the 20 RTS deluxes in the next aisle behind the race track sets. I figured worse scenario they'd be forced to restock the shelves with stuff from the back stockroom. or they'd have to hunt down the missing 20 RTS deluxe figures in the store.
