Darth Vader in Tie Fighter Pop! Deluxe

[jaybros82]

Got the last one yesterday orchard park ny target, little box damage which is why I assume someone left him but im oob guy so perfect for me!

[treswright]

Checked Brickseek this morning and man, it was lit up like Christmas! Ran out at lunch to a store that showed 3 (for those in Dallas it was the Medallion Center store on NW Highway). Typical story- looked in electronics and toys and then went to the CS desk and had them look it up. Zero. They said that Cityplace showed 3 in stock though. I ran over there, found 2 on the shelf in electronics. Call me greedy but MrsPlusOne wanted one too so I grabbed them both. I'll take an OOB pic when I get home

By the way, Cityplace showed 4 in stock a few days ago, then zero, then 3 today. So some stores may be getting more than 1 shipment.

Awesome Tres congrats!!!

[HowardTheDuck]

WTG Tres! I wish my brickseek would light up like that. Still 0 over here.

[The Head]

Glad you got him, Tres!! Congrats!

[guidotti]

In Chicagoland, these are going like hotcakes! Two days in a row, I've missed them by minutes. They stock them the night before, but I guess I need to show up right at opening.

[Rgncajun]

Oh man I lucked out with the last one yesterday. Sucked that these are released on a work day ugh

[Lilbrimer23]

I got mine this morning! It's box is cut on the top but I'm #oob4life. Probably the only reason I was able to snag one.

[Tdegbert]

I was able to score one at my local Target. That Pop is outstanding! Good job Funko!

I see you're in Renton as well.. the times I've called they've been out, at least I know they are showing up here finally!

I live in Puyallup but I had to go to Issaquah to get one. I'm pretty sure every store in Western Washington got their shipment last week, everywhere I checked said they got 2 or 4 and sold them within hours. Hopefully they get more.

[Tdegbert]

What does it mean if my brickseek changed to yellow but quantities are still at 0? That maybe they're thinking about getting it but it's not there yet? LOL. It's been red for days now and just turned yellow.

I've experienced that if it says 0 available but "Limited Stock" that means they have one left. I found that when I got Vader and Groot.

[darthfabul0us]

What is the list price on these? I want to get an idea of what the eBay markups are relative to the real price before biting the bullet and just buying one there.

[pop-inandout-9]

what do u think his ppg value will eventually become ?

[Tdegbert]

They were selling for $75 last week and closer to $60 today. There hasn't been a "second wave" yet so stores have either had 0, 2 or 4 (rare). That is EXTREMELY exclusive, it seems even if that second wave comes there won't be a flood of them on the market. They are $30 in store, I think if you can find one in good shape for $55 you should pull the trigger. It is $65 on PPG now and I can't see it going below $50. Even 10 inch Groot is still around $50 and that was sold in the store for the same $30 price tag. Additionally there are WAY more Star Wars collectors out there so the demand for this Pop should stay high basically forever.

[dad2my3]

My Target never stocks exclusives. I've been almost every day. Nothing.

[Moepops]

Having a super hard time finding Vader. Checked brickseek and seen one close to went over there and they said they weren't in store until the next day. Checked brickseek the next day it was red. They did me dirty said they weren't in store and they were damn you target.

Same thing happened to me. Another store was sold out the same day it hit BS. Also my stores are only showing that they received 2 on BS. I'm really hoping this won't be super hard to find

[jimma]

Per @AskTarget twitter they don't expect a re stock https://twitter.com/AskTarget/status/878826563646763008

Luckily my cousin grabbed me one this morning in CT or i'd probably never sniff one for retail

I learned to never trust @AskTarget after the Qui Gon Jinn incident

[Rgncajun]

I've asked a couple of associates from different targets and exclusives are never restocked.

[Funkopoplover91]

That's not completely true. I'm a manager at one, and sometimes they do come back. It just depends on a number of factors. However, this is a special Star Wars 40th release and the DPCI is linked to multiple Pop Rides so it is likely this won't come back. However, not every store has gotten a shipment yet. I would say by the first week of July all of them will probably be sent out. But it is still ACTIVE in the system so it is possible for them to return to stores however it is unlikely.

I have personally seen a couple of Target exclusives restock, but it is rare. It all just depends on the line and what not.

Thanks, for the info. I have been looking at my local Target and never saw it come in , so maybe there is still hope.

[FearlessPhotog]

I hope they do some more restocks, I really want this piece

I think the stores are only getting two. Hopefully they'll go up online soon fingers crossed

I'm losing faith in one of my local Targets. Brickseek showed they had 4 saleable this morning so I stopped by the store around 9am. They looked up the DPCI and said they were all gone already. I've continued watching Brickseek today and noticed the other stores in my area dropping in number to zero while they remain at 4. I don't think this is just a coincidence of Brickseek "not working correctly".

I was in a similar boat - after pretty much all of Saturday showing nothing locally, 3 different stores showed some stock (4, 4, and 2) at 10PM. Since it was late, I figured they be there on Sunday morning. Well, I woke up at 3am to get a drink, and checked my phone. All 10 were gone. Then, same thing yesterday - all day with nothing, and then some showed at night. Good thing the stores by me close a bit earlier on Sunday, which allowed me, and 3 other people, to get there at opening today and grab one.

[Libertyroxx]

Finally showing some available at Target in the NYC area. Which of course means by the time I get off work they will be gone.

[Pmisley]

I was fortunate enough just now to find another store somewhat local that I could quickly get to from work. The gentleman in the Electronics department was nice enough to hold it for me until I got there (~15 mins). Brickseek pretty much immediately showed the change as well.

Thanks guys! Julian, the next day they were all back to zero! Some more showed up in BS this morning, but they were in stores way far away from me. Will keep watching to see if any show up close again, if so I'll try to grab extras for Funatics.

What is the list price on these?

27.99 By the way if any of y'all see some in Brickseek and you go to the store and don't see them, ask CS to check the DPCI. If they tell you none are in stock ask if there are any in other stores (it will show them on the same screen). I've found their info is WAY more accurate than Brickseek, so if they tell you a store has them then you should be golden if you can get there fast enough!

[mactds]

I'm hoping these pop up online soon. I remember when 10" groot was a pain, and now it keeps popping in stock online.

I don't plan on picking up Darth Vader but I'm guessing it wasn't my local Target. The Pop section consisted of 2 Pops (didn't really see which ones... but not DV) and a few of the t shirts... nothing else. It's been slim pickin's at this store for quite a while, unfortunately. Even Michael's Arts & Crafts has more Pops than Target does, around here.

[Dogmatic]

My mother really wants one of these for her Star Wars collection. At this point, it's not looking good...

[racheva]

I actually found one! The Throggs Neck Target in the Bronx said they had two, but there was only one left as per staff. The morning started with 3 at my local target in southern Westchester and 4 at the Bronx one a few miles south of there. They went quick! They had it behind the desk, which is a first for me. I was hoping to get another for a fellow funatic, but that was a fail. I'm glad to see them at least attempting to dissuade flippers.

For the NY/NJ area people, the Paramus store is listing 4 right now. And a few stores in Rockland County seem to have some. Harlem had 4 this morning, but they appear to be gone.

I saw that too, and will be hitting those stores tonight after work. Hopefully the quantities are right, and hopefully they last that long.

It was actually White Plains, NY

All of Rockland was out by the time I even got up here. I'm going to try Paramus after dinner, but since they've been showing 4 all day, I doubt they have any.

None whatsoever. The 4 at Paramus are ghosts. By the time they locate them, they'll probably be clearanced. A few other stores in the BX/Westchester at showing them, but my usual spots in NJ/Rockland have been picked clean.

Had to do a quick Target run at the Spring Valley store yesterday afternoon and they just put out 3 Darth Vaders. Snagged one and put the other 2 in clear sight for others to find more easily. Good luck to the others in the area.

[bokchoy]

Does it come out of the tie fighter?

[Pmisley]

Does it come out of the tie fighter?

Negative. None of the Pop Deluxe come out of their vehicle due to licensing.
