BBI at Target
BBI at Target
No, this is not the first sighting. Sorry if you thought that.
But the stuff should start showing up in the next few days, at least in some stores. That said, please keep an eye out even if modern 1:18 is not your cup of tea. I am sure a lot of us are dying to know what, if any new figures show up, and how much they cost. How much are the vehicles, and do they have new paint jobs? If you do pop by Target please be our LRRP team, and remember any intel is valuable intel.

Gah! That's exactly what I thought!digger wrote:No, this is not the first sighting. Sorry if you thought that.
But, more to the point, I just came from a Target and nothing yet.
I'm checking every day.

The Joe pages and showing a Hasbro "ship date" for the new Joes on June 25. I'm assuming this actually means the "street date" where they will start showing up at Walmarts. Target has also started another round of toy clearance. I guessing an aisle refresh is coming in the next couple weeks, and wouldn't be surprised to see the BBis showing up then.
Sometimes, the mind needs a shovel, rather than a pencil and paper, to express itself.

I noticed today that one of my WalMarts did a reset in the last week, so it appears to be reset time... I'm looking forward to seeing how Target puts BBi into the planogram... sometimes their pegs start to run together after a couple months. and it's not like the Blackhawk and Apache have small boxes.

Hell they shrunk the Star Wars and FOV section down in Target for those crappy movie tie-in Transformers. WM did the same thing with their Star Wars section.Plane Nuts wrote:I noticed today that one of my WalMarts did a reset in the last week, so it appears to be reset time...

ETA is any day now. Products include M1, LAV, Apache, Blackhawk and modern figures. The $50 question is whether the modern figs are the new ones or re-release of the older figs. Can't wait for these to show..

Rumours have been running for a few weeks that Target was starting the latest clearance. This week saw the Back To School start to come in. But today, the bright spot was that one of my Targets went on full massive clearance!!! It will be happening in just a few more weeks.
I think all Mike has mentioned for this load are the figures and Apache and Blackhawk. Keep in mind this is just a trial, and if we buy good, it will mean more!!

No, vehicles too:
"Yes I know I have been MIA...but I'm back now...tell your boys to brace themselves and keep an eye on Target Stores.
Anybody who wants a Blackhawk, Apache, M1-A1, LAV or Humvee will be "over the moon"...plenty of figures too...but Modern fans only. And at prices that I don't believe..."

Modern's fine and dandy by me since any figure at this point is appreciated...
My WM's are loaded up with wave 2 of 21st's D-Day figures and really we need more Wave 1 we got sparingly. But BBI's non-existant at TRU, so any new home is great... Plus a blackhawk and Abrahams would be nice things to have since I never got the last ones.

At least you darn colonials get new stuff! Here in Blighty it takes ages to see anything new, if ever. I've only seen ONE LAV this side of the pond, at that was the day I went and bought the Apache When I went back, the LAV had gone...

A brand spanking new Super Target opened its doors for the first time this afternoon. And yes, bbi was on the shelf. Here is what I found.
There were no repaints of any kind. Sorry guys, same paints as before.
On the back of the boxes there were no pictures of new molds or repaints.
Now on to the details:
