So, I was surfing the Target website for pink desk file folders (there are none, btw), and I came across this little gem: http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/ref...asin=B000RL2E88Jesus on a whole-wheat cracker! Elita. Mrs. Prime! I've checked two stores for this Target exclusive, but no luck. If ANYONE sees this baby at their store, I will pay for the shipping to my office. It should be noted that Arcee is also a Target exclusive. I've seen her at the store before. I'm an idiot for not picking it up when I had the chance. http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/sr=...asin=B000RL4BUMI'm going to try the Target in Tallahassee (my old roommate is being very picky about her Bumblebee figures -- she wants the new Camaro) and I'll check on it then. But if anyone finds one before me, PLEASE e-mail me at jmangelo@ufl.edu and I'll send a check. Cheers, The Jackalope

Click on the "find it at a target store" button and enter in your zip code. It will tell you which stores have them. They have both in stock in the targets here and I don't even live in a real city.

It didn't work. I checked before I headed to the Target stores. I mean, that inventory screen might only be updated in the mornings or something like that.
...hey, doesn't someone here work at Target? PHILLLLL!

You guys rock. I can check my regular e-mail at work, but not the message board. Big big thanks!

I'll look at target when I go there--I'm going in an hour or so before I go to the comic store.

No luck they were changing all the peg/displays so half of the stock was in the back room.

There inventory system doesn't match with their website. Its really a waste not to have it match, the technology is available and the Target by my work has all the right equipment. (I work for the company that supplies all their scanners.) It would be simple to update the website every couple hours or so. Little or no manpower is needed.

Okay, I got one of the Arcee figures through eBay, but I'm not sure if it's the pink or blue version (I want both anyways). That still leaves one Arcee and the pink Elita.

Okay, thanks to eBay, I now have a 'magenta' Arcee (my brother refused to call it 'pink'). And the blue one is on her merry way.
Still no Elita though. And I checked about six Targets between Tampa and Panama City on my vacation...

I saw 3 yesterday--which is weird since he's a short pack. I also noticed that the cobra officer has the cobra trooper card packaging---a future variant I'm sure.

I went to one of the Targets here today and they had nothing. All they had were the voice changing heads and the little five dollar-no one wants-non-transforming-transformers.
I also looked for the G.I. Joe ones and they had nothing. Where are you guys getting these?
