Was in MI for Xmas, so I took the opportunity to stop by a Target to see if they had anything they didn't have here in AZ. Mostly found GAW, IE, & JA, but I also found 1 ROTS booster and 1 A&E booster for $6.99 each. So, I took a chance and bought both of them since I've not been able to get either in AZ and it's always fun to open boosters. The Force was with me...
ROTS VR = AT-RT (can always use more of those) A&E VR = Jawa on Ronto (which is one of the few I still needed form the set).

I bought two LotF tonight. Mostly junk but I did pull the RCTS and Mando Gunslinger, which I wanted for customising.
Extra Deliah Blue, Marasiah Fel & commons for trade.

3 GAW
Nahdar Kit Fisto Cody Battle Droid x2 That huge Super Battle Droid thing R7 x2 501st x2 BD Sarge
I was hoping a bit for a Cad Bane (wasn't hoping too hard, I used up all my luck back when BH came out), but I love the GAW C/UC so it was a win/win

Dark Times has arrived at my local Target. I'm a sucker for Dark Times, so I picked up one and a JA. Apparently my luck is changing, as I pulled a Vodo and a Jas Dennir. Not to bad, and some of the C/U I wanted more of.

Have they come down in price yet?

So yeah, went to Target today and saw the Clone Wars boosters with thre 4.99 tag on them, so I get to the register and boom they ring up at .49 I was like Holy Smokes, and I bought out their entire collection of CW.
Got Kybuck, STAP, Padme, and Holo plus a smattering of regular Rares. It's funny cuz my roommate needed a Kybuck, Padme, and Holo to complete the set.
Just needs Durge now.

Have they come down in price yet? They have here, they had the "Super Savings" sticker on them. Though, my Target just restocked on SWM, so it is possible that if your store had Dark Times before the sale, they won't mark them down soon.

yeah man same deal for me 3 days ago. I saw a target from the highway I've never been to on my way to the dentist. on the way back I stopped at it and got Rex... sure beats another Gha Nacht... that things even terrible for customs lol. I keep hoping for seeing some KOTOR or Legacy boosters that everyone mentions. the 2 sets I have the least from.

Boosters are starting to get slim here in OKC. So far I can still find a few of the $7.49 and up boosters except the FU ones. Those have been sold out for awhile. I Have one target I need to check again to see if they got restocked on the RotS ones. SInce this craze started I've pulled 3 AT-RT's and a couple of Destroyer droids pluse other goodies for my kiddoes that they liked.

I have two within normal driving distance, one north of me and one south of me. I've been bouncing back and forth on a weekly basis. Since CW was down to $4.99 I've been buying those up, they only put them like 4 at a time. My surprise came last week when I looked at the reciept ( because I was actually there buying something else, lol) and found they were down to the said $0.49 I don't know, I can't remember if said $1.20 for both or 1, but i was ecstatic. I returned and grabbed the other two, and then went down south to get 3 that remained there, plus some Dark Times that wer 50% off (Even though advertised at $14.99).
The biggest momen was when I oppened the second CW and found some robot dude weilding 3 lightsabers and a gun. WOOT! That made the whole effort worth while. Finally I have the best Grievous and can put away my Scourge of the Jedi. Managed to pull a chameleon droid in the next pack, which I didn't have, but all in all most of my CW were dupes, except for Anakin on a STAP. Which was nice to have, but 'meh' other than that.
Of my 3 Dark Times it managed to be a bouty hunter day. One Zuckuss and one Dengar Hired killer. No Chewbacca fearless scout.

Checked my Target to see if they had any CW, and they didn't, but they did have about 5 LotF boosters (which is new for this Target) and 5 Dark Times boosters marked as 50% off. The DT boosters actually rang up as IE boosters, and I bought all 5. My pulls were pretty crappy (Merumeru, Veers, 4-LOM, Boushh, Jennir), but I got some good UC/C (EG-05, 3 501st Stormies, 3 Mando Jedi Hunters, 1 Kota's, 1 Kota's Elite). I wonder if they'll ever have any MotF?

my target looks like they put up a whole case of JA, just days ago they only had GAW maybe 2 of them. I didn't count the JA boosters but it was either a case or close to it. But after 3 Leia Skywalkers I am way too sketchy about anymore of that.. heh
I keep hoping to see some KOTOR, Legacy or some of that ROTS even
MOTF would be kinda cool too. can't ait to hear if anyone sees some of that.

I have a coupole questions myself...: 1) Can you ask Target to order in SWM boosters (and as far as that goes; ask for specific ones)? 2) WHERE ARE YOU PEOPLE FINDING KOTOR; LOTF; DT; and especially ROTS???? Ive searched literally 6 targets and 3 bestbuys and NONE of the above were there...

I had the same question about ROTS until last week when several turned up at my local Target in Portland OR. We've always had the other sets you mentioned, though.

Generally no, as Minis, like everything else in the trading cards section, are handled by outside vendors (like how Frito-Lay and Pepsi work), not through the store's standard distribution.
