My local Ollie's had; Optimus Prime (WFC-E11) and Doubledealer (WFC-E23)
Definitely a deal worth looking into for those that can. Let us know in the forum what you find!

My local Targets have been a barren wasteland since early December. The shelves are usually totally empty. The Buzzworthy figures are the only thing they stock consistently, and while it usually sells, it takes up maybe half the deluxe pegs, and that's it. It totally baffling.
One did recently stock some voyagers, though, and my brother managed to snag a SS86 Hot Rod on sale, so that was nice.

They've definitely been a better seller than the Cyberverse exclusives, which is ironic because the Buzzworthy Cyberverse figures sold really well, too.

If anybody wants to come over to my neck of the woods and clear this stuff out, so hopefully we can get some more SS and Kingdom I'd be much obliged.

Theres no indication that selling the Buzzworthy toys in your area will result in target ordering more of the lines that are not Buzzworthy.

It depends on location but it's clearly not the universal shelfwarmer many fans feared. Bumblebee and Optimus are the faces on the franchise, they sell.

If you have an Ollie's in your state, I suppose that's worth looking into. Not everyone does.

Fair enough. I don't know that you have Ollies in your state, but you might. I was just trying to help.

I appreciate that- really, I'm just jealous that Ollie's isn't available to me , they've had some fantastic deals. Though we are getting a Five Below in my town, which is the first time they've been open in my state. I know they've had Transformers there before.

If you bought him at Target in the last month or so, they will reverse price match sometimes.

But even though it was all done in fun, it does still bring to light the distribution issues and inequality that still exist.

They shouldn't. At least not this soon. Receipt or it didn't happen.

That was my thinking as well, way too soon to show up there if they ever do. I wonder how many poor bastards immediately went checking their nearest Ollies.

Of course, just sharing a good laugh I had. I love the guy's pose too, he made the effort to get a cart and everything, it's all perfect.

Your right, it would be more fair if any toy not sold at primary retail for full price was destroyed like they do for other collectibles.
Did you guys ever see the video of the tons of lootcrate boxes being destroyed?

or failing that, get it right ahead of time. Instead of "Midwest Target" getting 50 Decepticon Clone sets, where fewer people live, and after they dont sell, end up at Ollies to be purchased by scalpers, and sold on eBay, because East Coast/West Coast Targets got 0, how about they spread them out more proportionately - 5 different stores getting-10 each.

That's really something. I've hard numerous stories and seen pictures of Loot Crate figures and video game collector's edition statues showing up at thrift stores/charity shops in bulk in some parts of the country and even other parts of the world. I guess with how many companies make these monthly boxes there's only so much you can give away before it has to be disposed of.
