Does anyone have the ACTUAL UPC from the box for the Mater’s Cousins set or the Showgirls set?

DPCI alone is misleading, as they clump last years stuff in with the new.

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

(MET: UPC won’t help because Target has no listings under UPC).

Just a question, I was able to find a scanner at Target that I could punch in the DPCI numbers. Does anyone have any new DPCI’S I could check on?

This is one great iPhone app! Saves me having to talk to the employees, although Ben has been incredibly helpful. Checked all the numbers I was interested in and they were all available, even the ones that I had been told werent in the system.

Think the signs are still up in most stores. Reason being is because hardcore collectors… and I mean Collectors go each morning when the store opens and look for Hotwheels. Many complained and that’s where you get those signs. Sucks because most hardcore hotwheels collector’s don’t care for Cars at all. But if its a holiday item like MSC, you shouldn’t have a problem because that’s seasonal items and not Toys.

Speaking of MSC most stores should have them up. My store just put them up today. It seems each store only got 4 MSC boxsets ($29.99) & 12 MSC singles ($5.99). I could be wrong but that what each store around me had in stock. I only bought MSC boxset (Also want singles but not right now)… now I only need Sarge’s Boot Camp…

There is NO Target stores here but, when we lived down state ALL the Target stores had signs posted all over the toy department -

“Employees are NOT allowed to bring out items from the backroom. Do NOT ask employees to search for specific collectables”.

I find it very hard to believe that Target stores have changed? They were the rudest and most stuck-up employees and managers our family ever dealt with!
Target never had their own exclusives in stock.

Target stores were the only stores that actually went out of their way to NOT sell you something!

Finally, today was able to score the box set! It was probably the hardest to remove from package that I’ve dealt with so far, the little twisty ties from hades were on so hard that I had to cut then carefully pull. I probably would have cried if after driving to a Target an hour away, only to get it home and break off a wheel removing the twisty ties!

Mater rocks, his wheels feel rubbery to me. Anyone else notice this?
My son also said, cool Mater is a monster truck reindeer.

Yeah have you seen the latest Verizon andriod ads basically slamming the iPhone, so I am not sure if we will ever see a Verizon iPhone

(MET: Verizon is CDMA and ATT (and 95%) of world is GSM so until Verizon gets the next gen up (LTE) & running – launching next year but not full coverage for 2 years, don’t expect the see the iPhone until then).
