Marvel Legends Series Gamerverse Psylocke vs. Thanos

A: Because there are scalpers that work at Target.

A: Allowing scalpers and bots to snatch up these products and keep collectors from paying the regular price is a bad practice. I can't stand to see Target or Walmart get hasbro exclusives!

A: Hope they are going to do a better job of making this widely available. Ms. Marvel Warbird, 80th anniversary Wolverine, and Venompool never hit shelves here in Denver. If you're going to get exclusives, they need to be as numerous as the Savage Land Professor Xs I'm finding everywhere.

A: Everyone gotta stop acting like addicts and boycott the figures until they fix these issues and quality control

A: Harbor put out the wrong release time on their Livestream.

A: It wasn't, was sold out exactly 8 minutes. Thanks Target 🎯

A: 1000+ cap and venom sold and still in stock and available. 300+ psylocke and Thanos sold and out of stock and no longer available....? It seems like they're trying to create fomo so they can raise the price through their own scalpers 🤷🏾‍♂️

A: I agree. Scalpers using bots are able to purchase beyond the limit imposed by Target. That’s the whole point of bots. Anything Target exclusive for Marvel Legends is a struggle for customers (never enough product). Any marvel legends fan knew Psylocke was a hot commodity. They should have opened this up to all retailers.

A: Target is the worst for exclusives. All the items are out of stock even before they hit the date so you know it’s an inside job.

A: They had a limit of 2

A: I have called target corporate before and they’re aware they have no practices or policies in place to stop scalpers or employees from taking advantage of the system and fudging stock numbers to then be able to claim out of stock when they never even went into stock. Then Target employees sell them for double or triple profit on secondhand market after buying them with employee discounts. Makes me very happy to know this information obviously

A: Nah bro, as laid out by Hasbro it was to go live at 1pm, Friday 06.06.2025. Many were left empty handed when we went to add it to our carts at the minute and it was OUT. Target fails AGAIN.

A: It went live at 9am and sold out in like 5 minutes

A: Apparently it went live around 5 in the morning and sold out immediately

A: Limiting amounts that buyers can purchase doesn't stop bots online. In store it doesn't stop someone from bringing family or friends to each purchase one, & many stores won't bother enforcing the limit to begin with. So limiting how many you can buy doesn't really work.

A: Do what I did and simply get a job at Target so you can be a scalper as well. If you can't beat them you might as well join them 🤷🏾‍♂️

A: Target could just limit it 1 per customer. Again an easy fix.

A: Never, all you have to do is get a job at Target in the toy department unloading the trucks. And you can work one day a week. Problem solved

A: When Hasbro/Others wake up and sees that they're a garbage business partner. I can't tell you how many times I've been jipped on something I wanted for my kids because of Target's incompetence.

A: Blame Hasbro. There's nothing requiring them to make this specific set a Target exclusive. They consistently look at items they know all collectors would want and based upon that offer certain ones to big box stores under an ongoing exclusivity agreement. They could easily make excess for future orders to be replenished on time so that locations can resupply quicker but they fail to do that at well. Target can only put what they get on shelves from each vendor once received. Hasbro continues to not have its logistics right so done places will never receive this set due to low stock nationwide. It's easy to fix but Target's system is mostly automated so supply has to be greater in order for this issue to stop happening each and every time.

A: Dude Target pays to get the exclusives Hasbro doesn't just decide randomly who gets what Mr Florids. Called capitalism.

A: Probably never... It's been an issue for a long long time.

A: Pre-order + Order pick up = stock in store, but unavailable. Items arrive at store mere days before release, at best. But are then unavailable to stock on shelves and are used to fulfill store pick up orders.

A: Go to the help section under store experience and call the 1-800 number. Everyone that’s reading this should call and tell them about all of these issues. Time to complain LOUD people.

A: Absolutely not. Target doesn't care about their customers. Never have. Never will.

A: This has been happening with Target Exclusives for years, and Target has done absolutely NOTHING to stop it or even address it with customers. And they wonder why many demographics of their customer base have abandoned them.

A: Check back on Sunday, July 20th. That is the street date, and it should become available again then. At the very least, you should be able to see then which stores had it in stock that morning.

A: My store only had 3 on hand. 2 guys ahead of me got 2 out of 3. There was another guy who came after us, & I knew he wanted one as well but didn't know that they only had enough for us 3 :(

A: Never! Ever! We make more money doing business with scalpers like Flipper Frank.

A: Corporations aren't gonna care one way or the other as long as they got paid.

A: This is it right here. Or have ties (with friends, family) running their own businesses selling the items. It’s what it is. Just go to SoCal to a place called Frank n Sons. Maybe some of these folks actually receive merchandise directly from Hasbro, etc. (B2B wholesale account) But when you see full cases of items that looked like they were picked right from the Target or Walmart store backroom/warehouse that’s highly suspect.
