No Halloween Polybags at Target This Year?
For USA Shoppers: is Target not doing a Halloween Polybag this year? My local Targets have their Halloween stock out now, and I am *not* seeing a spot for a Lego polybag. Granted, the Lego polys always seem to show up a bit later than the other merchandise, but I'm not even seeing a *tag* for a Lego set.
We *did* get sets at Valentine's and Easter this year, so I assumed the theme would continue. There's been a Halloween and Christmas poly for the last 3 or 4 years and I'll be disappointed if it doesn't happen this year, particularly since they tend to be half price or better in the post-Halloween clearance.

I saw the Halloween section at Target and I did not see LEGO. I didn't ask either.

Their probably just waiting for the reset for Thanksgiving and X-mas to come around this year to add Lego.
And this year it's possible at least one polybag will be tied into the new Star Wars movie theme with all the stores.

Went to a local target, I asked an employee and he said that they still had stock coming in, so not to get discouraged.

Re: No Halloween Polybags at Target This Year?
Always possible. Target typically has two polybags at Halloween, a "boy" and a "girl" option. They don't strictly call it that, but..come on.
I am hoping that one of them will be the Friends Andrea pop star stage back, since the only way you could get that to date was a $50 purchase at the Lego Store. What polys have been solicited but not seen yet this year?

Re: No Halloween Polybags at Target This Year?
At the Target closest to me, they had the series 14 minifigures in the Halloween section. Maybe they are this years substitute....so maybe after Halloween they'll be clearanced? No, probably not, since Target puts all the minifigures under the same DCPI.

I saw a Joker Bumper car and SW Rebels Tie Fighter poly bag at Target today.

^ Thanks for the heads-up. Was that the Halloween section, toy aisle, or front registers?

Nuts. I got both the Joker and the TIE at TRU in the last few weeks. I was hoping Target might have something like the elusive A-Wing or the Friends Pop Star set. Well, there's always Christmas.
Re: No Halloween Polybags at Target This Year?
To answer my own question... I checked the registers, Halloween section, and main LEGO aisle with no luck. Finally found the Joker poly on a separate endcap in the toy aisle along with other holiday stuff like the advent calendars. No TIE that I could find anywhere.Morgan19 wrote:^ Thanks for the heads-up. Was that the Halloween section, toy aisle, or front registers?
I'm not sure if the Joker poly shares its DPCI with any other item, but in case anyone wants to try looking it up in their area, the DPCI on my receipt is 204-000-479.

Newly remodeled Mountain View, Calif. Target has no Halloween goodies section but they have Polybags 30275 Advanced Tie Fighter and 30256 Chima Ice Bear Mech at the Check Out Lanes.

Re: No Halloween Polybags at Target This Year?
I really wish I understood the polybag distribution system. Some of them seem exclusive to TRU, Target, or the Lego Stores, and then some of those seem to inevitably make their way to the other stores regardless. And sometimes they randomly show up at Wal-Mart. I'm glad for anybody who couldn't get the Joker or the TIE since they rapidly vanished from TRU, though I do wish we had an opportunity to get something new. Well, there's always Christmas.
There never seems to be a shortage of Friends polys, though, so I'm shocked and chagrined that the Andrea Stage poly was briefly limited to the Lego Store and I'm hoping it will reappear at Christmas.
