I agree... hunting is fun to a point. However, going to work and coming home and finding Jade Flashwing on my doorstep! Is awesome!

I was going back and forth about if I wanted to get Jade... at first I wanted it... then, when it was available online I was like... I don't know if I want it that much... then it sold out online and I was like oh well...
But then they had a target here that showed it available so i was like.. why not...
so figure this... it's around 9:30pm.. 30 minutes before closing and they had 2 left...
so i got 1...

does anyone else look at the packaging and get the one that has no creases or anything even if they know they are going to just open it up and throw the packaging away? smilie

Beat up packaging indicates it has been handled roughly. Even opening it I want one that hasn't been banged around.

Was able to get 2 at the Target in Woodinville, WA. They have about 60 in the back and he put a few out on the pegs. Had to convince him. Originally he told me he wasn't supposed to, but I convinced him

they'll have plenty Hexin...don't sweat it. It's gonna be same availability as Molten Hot Dog was. Granite Crusher was limited moreso because it was a Giant and was half the availability of the regular figures.

Great news that Jade is out via Target.com.
There will be a LOT of Jades on the shelf in mid-march, so if you don't want to order one now, just wait a couple weeks. You'll have no problem finding them, and Target will also have a hot promotion for figures and accessories the week of March 17th AND the week of March 24th.
So if you need MULTIPLE Skylanders, or want more than one Jade, it will pay to wait until then. smilie


Thanks for these comments guys! I guess I'll just keep a stern eye on Target's availability tracker.

Yes, but keep in mind I grade comics--all of those creases and dents makes a difference in grade (and hence value)

I do "grade" the backboard..but only for ones I want to keep in my collection. I also pick the worse one condition wise to open for my son. I'm sure this is a disease, but it's the condition based collector in me that does it.

Went to 3 Targets today in Northern Ohio to see. I gave each of them the DCPI number and a print out of the page on target's website. Here's what I was told.

@ Aurora, OH: The lady said someone called yesterday and reserved (?) 5 of them, and they didn't have them. Anyone at Target know if we CAN actually reserve them now there?

@Streetsboro, OH: The lady said that the figure was not in their system at all. She checked the number as well as searching for the name. Part of me thinks she was looking at the wrong number though...

@Macedonia, OH: The guy looked up the figure on the system and said the same thing- it's not in the system at all. He was actually kind enough to go into the back and look for me though. The guy back there said he hadn't heard of it at all.

So..... Ohio must have not gotten the shipment yet or something. Maybe they got wise and pulled it from the system?

I don't think you can reserve them....

I don't think it would get pulled from the system. They may just not have been looking for the right thing.

After driving 3 and half hours. I got 4 jades at a target in Harisburg, pa. Now to get food. Also the bixes do say wave 4 on them as others mentioned. They had them at the electronic counter with a sticky note saying to leave them there as ppl are calling looking for them. I took pics but i cant figureout how to upload them with this kindle

She probably meant that the lady put them on hold. You can have Target put an item or items on hold for no more than 24 hours. Sadly most employees are oblivious to scalpers and don't limit what is on hold.

And as I said earlier in this thread. The Jade Flashwing does show in the system. It might show 0 on hand and that might be what they meant. But it shows up as "Skylanders Jade Flashwing - TGT" on any PDA and register when searching with that DPCI.

Also a tip to everyone when asking. If the employee is searching with a PDA make sure you ask them to use "Item Search" and give them the DPCI with the number "49" before the DPCI. So ask them to search for "49-207-00-1147"
That will take them straight to the item instead of them having to go through menu options to find it.

FWIW - My sister picked up the last one at the Target in Destin, Florida. She called this morning and they said they had 20 and when she stopped by after work, there was one left on the "Hold/Return" counter with no name so the sales clerk let her buy it.

Nothing will ship until Monday. And every store in our area is still "Out of Stock". I'm pretty sure we will be getting them around or before the store will, and the bonus is we don't have to convince people to ignore the Sell Date. smilie

Showing out of stock still for those 2 stores, try this link and just click on find in store. I bet it starts popping up more and more in other stores in the area in the next few days.

Just picked up 4 Jade Flashwings at a local Target here in Oklahoma City. They're the only store that shows stock. I doubt I can cancel my online order, so when it arrives, I am just sending it back or will return it to the store.

I just bought one in Tigard, OR. this morning. They don't have them out on the shelves but on the website they said they have them" in stock". So I called before I went. They said they did not have them and then he checked in his computer for me and could not find any. Then he ask me if I the DPCI # I told him the # and he found and put one on hold for me. When I got there they still did not have any on the shelf. It is pretty awsome looking and my daughter has another girl skylander. They have them "in stock" in OR and WA on the website but only a few of the stores.

Not on the East Coast, but for anyone interested - I was refreshing the website multiple times yesterday to see if they'd come back in stock. Also, did the in-store locator a few times, since I was on the page anyway. Sometime in the late night, one of the three stores I was checking shows "In Stock". Drove to it this morning - nothing on the pegs. Asked the guy, gave him the DCPI, told him the website said it was in-stock, he punched the number into his handheld and went right to the back and got me one. Then, I sent him back for two more. smilie

Cleveland OH here. The Target in Fairlawn had one left on the shelf. I asked the guy, but he said it says they had 19 in store, but not in the back? (I didn't argue with him or have him go into the back to check so..)

Seems like they're starting to filter out into stores more. I don't think we'll have any problems finding her. (Not on Molten Hot Dog level, but probably not as uncommon as Granite Crusher was)
