While Black Friday is still more than a week away, there have been numerous reports of people finding the new Target exclusive G.I Joe, Star Wars and Transformer toys at their local store. While doing my rounds this morning, I found an entire end cap full of them. Along with the Wedge Antilles X-wing fighter, they had two new Star Wars Clone Wars battle packs, the new TIE fighter with updated cockpit and the G.I. Joe Past and Present Rockslide ATAV. On top of that, they had all three of the new Transformers exclusives. Thanks to Computron34 of the TFW2005 boards for the pic.
If your local Target hasn’t put these toys out, you can use the links below to check and see if they have them in stock. Using the DPCI number, you can then have them pulled from the back room.
The Wal-mart exclusive Transformers Masterpiece Skywarp has begun to hit stores across the U.S. While out and about today, I found about 15 of them at my local Wal-mart in Madison, WI. As you can see from the picture, Skywarp is priced at $60.
My local Wal-mart also had the Wal-mart exclusive Blowpipe vs. Sideways set for $27. This set is a total rip off considering you can get two deluxes for $20. Not to mention, the Sideways in this set is no different than the one that has been on the pegs for months.
