So I have been to 5 Targets so far, I have yet to find any of the Madballs Minis but I have found 4 out 6 so far of the original size. I also have two extras of Oculus Orbus, In case anyone happens to have a Horn Head, or Slobulus to trade.

I know nothing of this...got any links or info? Why Target as well? Are they exclusive to that store only?

[cloning007]

So American Greetings released the 3 inch style and also a Mini 1.5" Madball figures.

I believe they have a exclusive rights with target but i am not sure.

We have one case pack of 20 mini figures at my Target. But I can't buy any because they're not sold at my store yet. I'll keep on it until they are.

Can just order them off Kidrobot site!  

[cloning007]

they are different fromt he kid robot ones,

[Sixthwizard]

Yep, I knew that hahahaha.... I don't even know what I was thinking!  haha....

[plasticfiend]

they are different fromt he kid robot ones,

 

AKA: Reasonably priced

[Sixthwizard]

Because they are big at 6" or something like that.  The minis are 8.99 each.  and there are 20 minis?  Am I in the right mind yet?  haha....

[fisheye]

The minis are $4 each. I can get the case if anyone is interested in buying from me.

I really want to get my hands on those minis. I had no idea they were going to make minis too, until I saw someone post them a couple days ago on Instagram. My local Targets of course had nothing over the weekend.

The minis are $4 each. I can get the case if anyone is interested in buying from me.

I was referring to the Kidrobot ones- and they're 9.99 through his site- not 8.99 like I thought.....BOOOO on those prices haha!

[fisheye]

I went ahead and picked up the 20 that came in the case. One of my bosses gave me the go ahead. Said it was alright since they're not street date. The planogram for the figure to hit the shelves goes active next week. So maybe that's when other Targets will start setting them also. 

 

Just to put this out there, I'm looking to sell these for what I paid for them at $4 a piece plus shipping.($1.50 NA and $4 over seas) I'm not into the series. I bought them to sell to whoever wants to buy them from here.(If these are in fact a Target exclusive toy)

 

Let me know if I need to make an official "Got Toys" thread for it.

Im not feeling these- they seem "toned down" when compared to the vintage ones and even the 2000s re-releases. That Occulus Orbus is awful- just give me a big eyeball he doesnt need a mouth!

[Strontium Dog]

These are great, I am way more interested in the Target Madballs (big and small) than I am in the KidRipoff ones. A widescale commercial release seems far more in keeping with the Madballs tradition as a spinoff from a greetings card company than overpriced and artificially scarce designer vinyl.

I don't like the bigger Target ones- they seem too toned down- Like ya said, Fisheye.  Seems Playskooly or FisherPricey.  

 

I do like the minis- yes I know they are the same, just smaller-  They seem more acceptable because the detail of being toned down is tighter and hidden more (because smaller obviously)

 

Probably won't pick any up though...
