Since wave 1 of TF's Prime I've kept my eye on Khols inventory at a couple locations waiting to see them put out anything. And just like some other retails stores they too have lingering DOTM figs. So will they eventually get new merch perhaps starting with FOC when they hit or will they most likely not...anyone, anyone? :VEHI:

Market-Six type stores like Kohl's, Meyer's, TJ Maxx etc. are a hit and miss when it comes to toys. They're fine with first releases and cheap overstock, but that's it.

completely agree with this regarding what one can expect
Kohls tends to be more expensive with random bogo sales versus Tjs and Marshalls overall clearance pricing
scored some nice stuff from Tjs on the past, not so much with Kohls

Yeh, Khols is another option to go toy shopping but not a good place to do regular checking since they don't even do regular release. So far only one time Khols mean a lot to me is when I was looking for RTS Jazz and Tracks, Khols is the only place that have them. All others 3 Targets, 2 Walmarts, 3 TRUs around me don't.

There was a time during Universe 2.0 and Animated where Khol's (in my area at least) were often the first to get new figures. I picked up Universe 2.0 Galvatron and Acid Storm there, as well as many Animated figures long before they showed up at Wal-Mart, Target, etc. Lately they've had virtually no TF's.

Weird. My local Kohl's only ever has old figures that were in other stores months previous, and they're always overpriced (like $14.99 for Deluxes).

Hey El nice sig and avitar man! I just figure that Khols isn't a discount store, they carried DOTM (some still) so why not simply carry the next TF's line. Maybe not Prime but perhaps the next Generations line if not FOC... :-?
