Dawn of War Target Deal (Honored of the Chapter)

[twopounder]

Just discovered this and was able to grab one today - https://www.target.com/p/games-workshop-dawn-of-war-onslaught-board-game/-/A-94739548#lnk=sametab

 

It has a heroes of the chapter sprue ($170) in a $50 box. Only catch is that they seem to be very limited. It was the last one on the shelf when I grabbed it and another guy got there a few seconds after me and asked if it was the last one. We looked around and didn't see any else. The store only started with 4 in stock. When I got up to checkout, the girl literally said "oh, are you the one that keeps calling about this?" Apparently its so hot that even random cashiers know the box by name. I checked stock online and there was nothing left within 100 miles of me.

As a bit of a funny side story, I told her I only wanted the sprue and was going to toss the rest, since I don't care about it (I mean, its Blood Ravens). She asked if I'd give it to her instead. I was surprised and told her its basically just a bunch of cardboard, but she insisted she wanted it. I pulled the sprues and gave her the rest of the game. Maybe it will get her into 40k at some point.

Not sure if this is US only, but it seems to be a Target and Barnes and Nobles exclusive.

Well, I guess I'm driving 40 minutes to pick a box up tomorrow.

Good luck.  I’ve been twice when the website has said it’s in stock but it’s not there.

Why would you jinx me like that?

If you're not going to the one in Augusta, GA, you're probably OK.  It's the only Target I've ever been in that felt like going in Walmart.

According to the Internet (which never lies), there were four on the shelf at my Target this morning. There are no longer any on the shelf. I guess there's no point going now.

Sadly they seemed to go very fast

In my experience as a Canadian who enlisted a US friend to try to find one of the earlier Target sets, Target stores will say they're in stock and they probably are but they can be scattered all over the store. So he had a lot of trouble finding them until later, when they popped up as available for pick up.  The listings in Des Moines did not, so, I wasn't surprised when he couldn't find them this week. I don't think Target is going to have a single wave of these anyway, I do not believe they make deals with GW without a certain target for volume.

 

Also fwiw B&N's listing has it at $40, though I have a feeling that will be much lower volume.
