NECA @ TARGET
Beginning August 3rd!

On August 3, NECA is coming to @target!

We’re very excited to announce the arrival of the NECA section in all Target stores nationwide. Fans can find the new NECA section of action figures and collectibles in the entertainment area at their local store. Selection will vary by location, but expect to see both the latest and the greatest toys from NECA. New items will pop up on a regular basis, and there may even be the occasional surprise in store, so stay tuned!

So this fall try Target for your NECA TMNT stuff

Yesss, I can finally use this target gift card I've been saving.

Target has been positioning itself to be big in toys, especially with the demise of Toys R' Us.

Quote:

“We’re playing to win in toys,” Cornell told reporters in November a couple of months after Toys R Us filed for bankruptcy but before its announcement earlier this month that it would liquidate all of its U.S. stores. “We think there’s opportunity to expand share.”

They won’t be selling Henson figs nor will the Gamestop’s exclusive be anything to write home about. SDCC exclusive buyers unite!

Do we even know if they're offering additional TMNT stuff?

they can sell the 1/4th Henson in retail just not the 7 inch ones. You haven't even seen the supposed "gamestop Exclusive" ones so how can you tell they won't be anything to write home about?

This preemptive elitism is laughably pitiful.

Lol. I see it as extreme premature buyers-remorse. It’s possible he is right, but it’s not a good look at all.

Turnstone · 07-19-2018, 01:13 AM

No buyer’s remorse at all. The SDCC box sets will hold their value based off their AMAZING packaging alone. I do hope everyone gets a chance to get these eventually whether it be a bare bone exclusive or SDCC set. I am just thrilled to get mine next week! Sorry, Powder.

*Candy Kappa* · 07-19-2018, 02:38 AM

Thread being in the TMNT section gave me some false hope for new NECA TMNT stuff, not just that NECA itself will have a presence in Target.

But I guess that's cool for those who have a target

SilverNinja · 07-19-2018, 10:05 AM

While I immediately got giddy at the thought of a NECA wall/isle in Target, I also got a rush of sadness, as this was my absolute favorite area in Toys R Us. I would go about once a week to check out the offerings.

Still, this is pretty good news and I'm excited to have that ability to purchase great NECA products in a store. There's just something special about rummaging through the products to find the one you want to take home instead of ordering off a site.

*Autbot_Benz* · 07-19-2018, 10:13 AM

If you watched Pixel Dan's review Randy did say there is chance of Retail Turtles stuff in 2019-2020 of the Video Game and Cartoon Variety

It’s just that you’ve made it perfectly clear that you want the SDCC set to be superior to any other releases of the small scale Henson figures.

How else can we interpret that? Why wouldn’t you want everyone to get a chance at the best set?
Well, logic implies it’s because you’ve already paid a good deal for your set and you don’t want to feel cheated or gimped if the set becomes more easily available and at a cheaper price.

It’s undersrandable but comes across as seriously petty.

Neca will be sold in Target's... what, exactly? Stores? Website? Bordellos? Unfinished sentences make my head hurt.

Target's "entertainment" section near the DVDs and Video Games

*wpugh2424* · 07-19-2018, 08:24 PM

Too bad I just moved further away from a target

I hope the sets make their way everywhere now.

Turnstone · 07-20-2018, 05:16 AM

I hope they do, too. I really do. I hope everyone can eventually get a set and the line continues and evolves. I am just a sucker for exclusive packaging so it’s one of the big reason I want them as that VHS box exclusive is just damn cool. Stupid I know but I already have all the figs in 1/4 scale so this is just a cherry on the top kind of thing. Really a great time to be a turtle fan.
