Yes, I'm in Special FX. No, this was not done with mirrors!

Did my normal Target recon route today. Found three more of these today, found the first one on Valentine's day. Two of these came from stores that the CS person said they went out on the floor, looked and there were none. Yeah, right. Put the phone on hold, BS for 2~3 minutes then BS the idiot calling for toys. I get it now. I will always go to the stores now, even if they say none in stock.

Take a good look at your Targets. NOW. They all had new release hanging today. Probably been there a day or two...maybe since Valentine's day. Not sure where all the first release peg warmers went. Did not see a lot of them today. Some had duplicates so there were at least two sets put out. If its anything like the last release, I will not be seeing any more of these. Thats how it went last time after finding all my B&W in a three day period.

I'm heading up to Detroit next weekend and will be hitting Targets along the way in KY,OH and MI. I also have family up there searching them out for me. If I get enough I'll spread the love too.

Robert, I'll be without a computer so I may need your phone # while up north.

hey Robert, can you take a picture of the bar code with the numbers and send it to me? I found a friendly employee at target who wants to help me track one down. If you've got a cop car bar code ill take that in addition. Thanks.

Well, went to 2 other Targets today.

One had triplicates of the corvette-means 3 xBs left that store! The other had doubles of one car so there were 2 xBs there also. Oh well, too slow!

Jeff, will PM my cell #, good luck on the hunt!

Matt, tried to shoot the bar code pictures-from my cell phone. Could not get close enough...so blurry. Forgot my digital @ wife's friend's house on Valentines. Gonna try to get it back soon.

The number is:
90159 15975, Same identical from both xBs. Must be for generic All Stars items.

Targets drives me nuts. If they sell it in the store you should be able to get it at their on line store.
