71010 - Minifigures - Series 14 Monsters

[dcdfan]

I stopped at another Target - none out but I asked them to check in back. There were back there, but so was a sign instructing them to not sell until 8/1 - mega bummer. Sounds like I got lucky at the first one.

So you let them know they're almost two weeks late...?

Anyone have the DPCI yet? That sure would be helpful.

[TacoCat]

DPCI # on the receipt is 099090999, which is not a valid one. I gave the toys dept. guy the DPCI for previous minifigures  (204-00-1379) and thats how he found the 60 in the stock room that turned out to be a sealed box of Series 14. So it appears it will be the same DPCI as before.

Oops, meant 9/1

Someone has a full box on ebay for "only" $600obo.  Target here still has series 13 and some simpsons, tied in with a box of random mixels.  No knowledge of Series 14 and nothing in the back warehouse.  I'd love to find a box.

 

[Siddy]

so okay I haven't found an answer to this one yet so I just ask:

where/how can you purchase a full unopened box? do I need to flirt with the manager of my LEGO store or what?

OK I'm a 1X5, but I WILL grit my teeth and flirt with those dorky guys at the Lego store if it will work.

If that doesn't work, I WILL grit my teeth and flirt with those frumpy stockwomen at Target.  Depravity, I love it!

Looks like no pre-orders on this series.  Those would have been out by now.

I'm trying one more local Target tonight. I'm gonna wear something suggestive

"Suggestive" that you're looking for minifigs? I can't imagine what that looks like, but part of me really wants to know.

[Fleck]

Stopped by my Local Target after work..... Rack was empty. So I found an associate... they looked on their scanner and said they were out of stock =(

Also stopped by a Meijer and no luck =(

Got shut down at target due to street date

I was going to start with this

If that doesn't work try a little of this

Last ditch desperation move would be this

and if I'm getting vibe like they're a little freaky then maybe this

I don't recall this being mentioned (apologies, if it has) but the spectre head glows in the dark. Very cool!

[Elkkthunder]

What were you wearing?

polo and shorts-

however 2nd store had 2+ cases out

linked them to the 204-00-1379 at the register with no issues

The kid at target got me ten from the back and said he would go grab me some more. Then he walks out an takes them out of my cart and says he is ruining my day because he cant sell them til the 1st. I am more than welcome to come back then. I just said I wont be back to that target and walked away.

I get the disappointment, but you're not going to go back because they were doing what they were supposed to be doing?

And on another forum somewhere, that kid is writing his "customers suck" story

seems pretty rude to me if he just grabbed them out of the cart.

sounds like he was unprofessional about it.

I think he works at my target.  Did he have this nametag?

Oh, I'm not disagreeing with that.  I figure if the guy is "kid" age, he probably doesn't care if he was rude, or care if jkris shops there or not.  But he'll probably share his story online.

Mid to late twenties. His name tag also said trainer.  Its not that he wouldn't sell them to me. If that was the case he could have said that and I would have taken them out for him. the other part of it is the complete lack of consistency with some buying entire cases and some being told they will have to wait until the official release date.
