I tried purchasing them today, but the register wouldn't let them ring up - said there was a October 1 embargo date. I tried to push the manager because they were on display on the shelf, but he would not budge.

A short time later, I found them at Target. I purchased them without a problem there.

Got to love that bear. Have to have at least two (like in Disney's Bears). But now I need momma bear ... from Bricklink.
sjhapke, thanks for the warning that TRU might not allow sale until Oct 1st and that Target might have it. Will be doing a store run tonight.

Very odd, we have had those on the shelves for a few months now, with Series 6 arriving in the next week or so. Maybe a USA/Canada difference since I am in Canada?

Yes, for some reason, U.S. is behind on animals.

Found none at my local Target.

Found them at my local TRU but the cash register would not sell it to me.
The manager tried to override it but she could not.

So she offered to hold it for me and I can pick up on October 1.

Judging by the empty display box on the shelf, quite a few people are doing the same thing.

Picked these up at LEGO KidsFest in Dallas over Labor Day weekend. Cashiers said they hadn't seem them in their stores and it was a 'smart' purchase on my part...
