When he looked it up, he said "and it's not street dated, so I can sell it to you."
So there you go, folks. Not street dated and can be sold.

For those on the hunt, the DPCI codes end in:
Basilisk - 0657
Dobby - 0654
And, btw, they are glorious!!!!!

Those Dinos were released in CA a week or so ago I think.
I got the same release date from one of the Targets I went to about all three Harry Potter exclusives. Apparently 7/8 is the date for everything. My friend went to one and got a Tom Riddle. He said they had the 10”Dino in stock and that they had 9 with 5 people waiting for them.
Did you put your name down as the 6th?
I had my aunt check there yesterday for the Basilisk since Brickseek said they had "limited stock" but he looked up the DPCI on his handheld thing and said they didn't have any in stock. I went there today myself because they said the T-Rex was "in stock" and asked the guy if they had Basilisk too and he said no, they were supposed to have it and the 10 inch Dobby and Scrooge but he doesn't know why they don't have them yet, but other stores do and he thinks maybe they sent their truck to another storeKaljor wrote:Katers wrote:
AMEN to this. Not going to lie, had success with Target over the weekend, but wow they are making me crazy with different answers both from store to store, and from day to day at the same store!!
Managed to snag Sepia Tom last Thursday - showed in stock on Brickseek, so off I went to get him. They pulled him from the back for me, super helpful, really much appreciated. Fast forward today when a friend and I are hunting minis, and I'm hunting another basilisk and Sepia Tom for an out of state friend. Go to the same friendly, helpful Target, where everything is still showing in stock. Ask electronics, since nothing is out, and am told that from now on they're not retrieving Funko from the back anymore. Say what now?? Also told the 7/8 date. Thanked them and walked away instead of going "SERIOUSLY???" Weirdest experience I've had at Target in awhile, and I've gotten a lot of run-around from Target lately...
Someone on facebook said that the date they show in their system is not a street date, but a set by date, meaning that when there is space on the shelves, they have to put the items out by at least that date. I don't know if that is true or not. We would need a Target employee to verify.
That explanation would make the most sense, because with movies and cds, if you try to buy something that was put out before the RELEASE date, the registers will literally not let the item ring up it up and a manager has to override it.

No. I called and went to 2 stores by me and each associate said it didn't arrive. Brickseek still shows stock but I'll try again tomorrow. Thanks for asking!
If it’s still showing tomorrow then I’d ask a manager to take a look in the back. The stores in Vegas only received 4 Dobbys and 3 basilisks. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were being “held” for friends.

I have the same problem here at my Target in Tucson. They even say it's a mistake in their system and then later it gets zeroed out.

I am fully in support of going in to work late, for just about any reason! This in particular is a good one though!

Was Dobby a free elf?
Avengers74 wrote:I went on the search this morning for Sepia Tom Riddle and found that some of the Targets are saying that the street date for the 3 Harry Potter Exclusives isn’t until 7/8. One store couldn’t find the one Pop and the other told me how there is a new rule that they cannot sell them until the street date, and the third store was selling them so I was able to get one. I wish Target was consistent on this rule. One store back when they were getting in the 10” Thanos told everyone that it wasn’t being sold until a specific date (like a week later) and then turns around and sold theirs the very next day, which was not the date the store manager had told people it would be. If you are going to have a release date all stores should follow it, not pick and choose to follow rules. It is very frustrating when you just want one and the scalpers are grabbing them up to sell.

Best post in this thread, IMO.

Valkyrie wrote:Hi gang, I'm new to the forum but wanted to share with anyone in the Louisville KY area looking for these Target exclusives, I just picked up Dobby, T-Rex, sepia Tom Riddle, and the Basilisk 10 minutes ago at the Target in New Albany. Stalked Brickseek for weeks without luck, checked 3 times this morning already but no stock, checked one more time before running out to lunch and Brickseek showed all in stock. If anyone lives near Louisville Ky and wants to hop across the bridge, it's worth the drive. Dobby, the Basilisk, and T-Rex are truly glorious.

This is the first Target exclusive I'm buying; are their exclusives very limited or do they get more stocks later on? I would hate to think that that's it for this line of Harry Potter.

Depends I have seen some target exclusives sit for a long time but do not count on much for HP ones
