Target just
did a major restock on the TCG shelf at my local
store and I saw THREE new Pokemon gift sets! The
smaller two sets were both the carded pack
sort--3 ex boosters, one foil promo and one
collectible coin. One of the sets featured older
ex boosters (called "classic" on the price
sticker, $8.99); the other included 2 Crystal
Guardians packs. The promos I noticed appeared
to be Pidgeot, Tauros, Sceptile and Swampert, I
believe. Now the drum roll... The BIG gift set
was a Target exclusive! It included TWO sealed
preconstructed ex decks, three ex boosters, TWO
foil promo cards (um, I think Mew and poss.
Typhosion-?) and a collectible coin. $19.99.
Everything I've mentioned was stamped from
Pokemon USA on the outside packaging--none of
that 3rd party repackaged stuff, so, I'm
guessing the risk of "good" boosters being
weighed and snatched is low... :)
Additionally, Bandai
has updated their product page. I found new
figures at the Japanese market this week; I
snared a Manaphy: Finally some scans of the floating wind-up toys I found some weeks ago: http://www.bandai.co.jp/candy/products/2006/36689.htmlAnd the key chains I found even before that... http://www.bandai.co.jp/candy/products/2006/33234.htmlThis is the directory you want to bookmark to keep up with the releases: http://www.bandai.co.jp/candy/products/main_pokemon.htmlAnd a sneak peek of the upcoming movie (that is already out in Japan!)! http://www.bandai.co.jp/candy/products/2006/36668.htmlSometimes, the products show up on the shelves before you will see them on the page. This is why you'll find me driving to the market every week! :) Loretta
