Settle for a Night Specter without Grand Slam?

The impression I got from the Hasbro rep I talked to was that the stores can order more. It's more in question about IF they'll order more. She was going to talk with the store manager, so maybe that's an option. If you haven't seen them or only saw 1 stock of them, maybe the store manager will listen. I'm giving it another few weeks to see if they will stock them and then I'll probably try talking with the store manager myself.



My local Target got them in last week, and they disappeared within a couple of days. I was back in today, and they had a complete restock out after the endcap sitting empty for a couple of days.

So does the night spectre still have the styrofoam block in it like the sharc did?

I found them today at the Burbank Target on Victory. The girlfriend was kind enough to buy me 1 of each (she owed me a B-Day present) so I got 'em. They had about 3 or 4 of each it looked like cuz I left at least 3 Spectres and a couple AWEs but no HISSes. Was wierd that whoever grabbed them only left 1 HISS but most of the others. Not complaining at all, just curious about it.

They aren't spectacular by any means (being all repaints and all) BUT I'm very happy to have some genuine Joe vehicles to go with my 25th figures. Now all I need is the TRU Joe 3-pack and I'll be happy til the next wave comes out.

Picked up the Sharc and the Hiss last night. The sharc I knew I would get because it looked cool at teh Con. Chalk me up as a fan of the A-10 so this one was right up my alley.

The Hiss I had no intention of getting but Justin's review changed my mind. $10 for a figure and a 2001 Hiss that fits both the 25th and the RAH figures was too much to pass up.

I think I read in another thread that a Night Specter owner was going to add styrofoam to his so it will float.

Was in the Target in La Plata Maryland and they have the Vehicles. They are upfront, as they seem to be in most stores, by the checkstands. They had only 2 AWE Strikers, 2 Hisses and a few SHARC remakes. I bought one of each and left the rest.

Haven't decided yet if I am going to open them or not. I might pop them open to remove the 25A figures and then close them back up.

For anyone in Southern Maryland who knows where La Plata is, the Target is on Rte 301/5 in the mall with the La Plata Safeway.

They also had what I am guessing are the Order 66 SW figures I see people discussing. Don't collect SW so I didn't see which ones they had exactly but there were a bunch of them.

There is another Target in Waldorf, about 10 minutes away but as of last night they didn't have any.

I've been able to pick up about 30 of the HISS so far, they started hitting pretty hard in my area (NJ-PA-DE) in the last couple days.

So uh, gonna buy 90 of the hiss that doesn't suck when it comes out? ;)

kidding, so far i've only seen the sharc repaint. and an empty shelf filled with overflow of order 66 figures, will have to try a few different spots tomorrow for the striker & hiss.

I finally saw the rest of them today and bought them. I decided to give it a try at the other Target. The Hasbro rep I talked to didn't know when she'd be stocking that store. so I hoped for it being a weekend stock. I was right. I got my 2 of each like I wanted. I also found 2 of the 3 TRU 3-packs today.

Probably not many, unless I want them for customs. I already have a lot of vintage Black HISS tanks, but I wanted the Target blue one to use with Cobra infantry.
