What's the DPCI? And how do you get them to hold 1 for you? Do you call or go in person?


DPCI 087-06-0595. I called the store and told the Target Operator I was looking for a GI Joe toy, so she tried to connect me with toys, but the person was upfront helping to cashier. So the Operator took the DCPI and told me they had it, but it wasn't on the sales floor(which I already new), but they could get it from the back, she asked my how many I wanted and I said 2 sets and she said they would be waiting for me at the fitting room.

Don't know if anyone else is having trouble finding these, but they are in the back room. Was in the Denver metro area this weekend and couldn't find them on the shelves. I asked at customer service, and had one out of the back room a few minutes later. The lady at customer service told me that the Target in Thorton had twelve in stock, while they only had four.

Just went to target, and of course there were none on the shelves. Fortunately I had my printout with the product #, found a clerk and he went and found the set in the back. He actually bought a whole stack out, saying that there was a spot for them on the shelf, but no one had stocked it. Or they had been snapped up. Either way, if the website says they have it, they probably do. Just bring the printout with you.

I just opened this set yesterday and also have to herald it as a must-buy. My minor annoyances, both with SE - he came with a droopy visor I had to glue to reset (I ordered mine online without inspecting - it was obvious as soon as I saw the box) and also his scabbard was all bent outta shape.

The Vipers and (Duke) are pretty great, but SE is the best ever (even though mine took some mods out of the pkg.)

I just picked up 2 of them. I needed a set I can tear the background apart and remake...

It's a cool set. My Snake Eyes sword sheath is screwed up and has a bend in the middle. It's made of very cheap material. I need to either remake it or figure out how to fix it. Other than that the set is cool. Great Snake Eyes and the Vipers are cool. Duke needs a new head so he can be someone else.

Mine has the bend too. The sword and scabbard are the only drawbacks to the fig. He should have come with a smaller wakizashi type sword.

I saw a 4 pack at K-Mart that looked almost like this Target set.

I wondering if I might've missed out on the info about a K-Mart exclusive or if someone returned a Target set to K-Mart?

There is a K-Mart exclusive that is very similar to this one. I forget the specifics but its got a Duke, Snake-eyes and a couple other dudes.

My SE scabbard was warped as well. The good thing is the sword is a hard plastic and the warped scabbard doesn't warp the sword. But the material fo the scabbard feels really cheap and flimsy. I'm considering mounting it on the backpack but I might just leave it off and use this...

Got this from Alyosha at Joecon this year. Its just the SE sword and scabbard modified into a wakisashi complete with peg to fit in the belt hole.

Wow, that is nice. I will likely have to get one of those from him as well. I really am not a fan of how long the sword is since it isn't cartoon accurate. Thanks for the pic MS.
