Has anyone seen The Grady twins at target? Would you rather get this online or at the store? Thoughts?

Is there going to be a chase of the twins? I didn't realize that. If so - I'm definitely ordering online

Store exclusive chases suck..... especially when it is target. Best bet is to buy online like other people have suggested

The picture with all the shining pops were from California but I'm not sure if they found them in store. NorCal isn't showing stock yet.

I have a "new guy" question.
I know there is usually one chase in a case of 6. If this is a two pack then they will most likely ship in cases of 3....or so I'm told.
So, does anyone think there is a chance this will be a 1/3 chase? One per case?
Thank you everyone for this awesome community

1/6 chases just refers to the production numbers, which means there is a chance that a case could contain no chases at all. I've had this issue when the rugrat pops hit Target and I found 3 unopened cases containing 0 chases :-/

No problem, this is going to be a hard one for most people to get considering Target's reputation with exclusives so far.

Nightmare scenario.. This and Crota are really going to suck. I have to hope it's the one Target employee who has no idea what Pops are that is around when they release.

I can imagine how much of a pain in the rear end these target chases are going to be. It was already bad during the the whole holo qui gon debacle

When it comes to obtaining pop exclusives at targets, I dont expect too much. It seems at employees at most stores know what pops are now and they're just taking the lions share of pops for themselves

How did you find the cases if I might ask? I asked today at Target about cases and they said they wouldn't check for me. :(

It really depends on the person you ask. The three stores I went to didn't have them out yet but were able to check their devices and saw it was in the back so they brought out the cases. So my advice is to ask multiple employees if you find one who is unwilling to check.

Another "new guy" question. Can't we just order these online? Pre-order? Is this something you need to be right on top of? We don't have Target in Canada anymore so this may be my only option besides ebay.

I have noticed, most target exclusives do go on sale online after in-store but with this having a Chase not quite sure

Target exclusive chases are a nightmare scenario for most of us, I believe. I have three Targets near me and I can pretty much guarantee these won't ever hit the shelves at two of them. There is one store where the employees are very helpful and if I get there on the right day I may have a chance. I would love to see these go online and actually be available (hopefully Target will have enough stock to fulfill orders).

From what I've seen these have not hit my area of Southern California yet.
