In case there was any doubt still about Target

By GiraffeandZebra, in X-Wing

It's possible local stores will get the expansions and big box stores get the core sets maybe.

I haven't seen much to indicate that there will be any expansions. Now don't get me wrong, i'd love to see some and be able to play a whole 100 pt game with a few different ships from the First Order and Resistance...but we may not see the SF tie or expansions/new ships for a couple months.

We know there is three missing SKUs. We only know what one is for sure.

We may know what they are and they will be out then but we don't necessarily know when then will be now.

In other words, while the set isn't Target exclusive, I'm sure it's just Target for this print run.

Per one person who got a real answer from his LGS, no it's not. LGS's can start ordering it tomorrow.

Want to save money tonight?

Also starting September 4, Target shoppers can save $10 off any Star Wars purchase of $50 or more, or $25 off your Star Wars purchase of $100 or more.

They're also on target.com. Click the weekly ad button.

Oh and the fine print, not valid on legos

b. different retailers will receive different products which could result in one chain having something the others don't and possibly not even caring or knowing that it was 'exclusive' to them.

If Disney has been paying attention to the video game industry....

I can't really see them releasing other ships right now with the next wave already announced for later this year. We'd have 3 waves released in a 4 month time span.

I'm thinking of checking CSI and MM tonight at midnight to see if they release too. If not, I might be late for work Friday...

By the way, that's $10 off a purchase of $50 or more and $25 off a purchase of $100 or more.

Well, this is a good thing.

3 SKUs are the gap between waves. most likely the other two are individual copies of the ships from the Force Awaken core set.

Well, let's hope the have the other two mystery products.

Well I just found out my Target is not opening at midnight. Will open in the morning. Any word if these core sets will be out at other stores tonight?

My wife just told me she'd swing by Target at 0800 tomorrow morning for me, to check out what's what.

Why do we all think this is a Target Exclusive? My understanding is that the leak seems to have come from Target, and we know Target has carried X-Wing in the past, but is that all? Aside of the Disney store, target, Wal-Mart, and ToysRUs, other stores are going to have new stuff, even if they aren't doing a Midnight Special Event. I was up at Gamestop today and got confirmation that they will have some new stuff, including new Funko POPs.

So is it unrealistic to think that we might see the new core set at Barnes and Noble? Hastings? Amazon? Or some other place? Why do we think nobody will have it BUT Target?

Is there a mouse in your pocket? ^_^

We have multiple leaks that appeared to originate from Target employees, and now confirmation from datamining of Target's inventory system that they will actually have something. We have no data for anywhere else.

That doesn't at all mean it's impossible for the core sets to show up anywhere else. In fact, I hope for FFG's sake that they have it in at least a couple of other stores and Amazon. But it just means that if you (a) you're willing to pay retail prices at a (b) nearby Target that's ( c ) going to be open late tonight, that's the safest bet.

Target is a sure thing. An absolute, if you will. And we like absolutes. Deal us in, Target.

So I was just at target doing some pre-midnight scouting, and found the location of interest.

STWARS XWING SWX2FFG

STAR WARS X WING 2.0

39.99

087 10 1337

2-2-4 1

And no, it's not target exclusive. But I'll be there anyways so its convenient.

I also saw a 29.99 Millenium Falcon next to it, does not say if it's ffg or for the xwing game or not tho (talking about sku/tags at the star wars display at target)

That SWX2FFG is an odd code when SXW36 is printed on the box next to the UPC.
