@Glewisorg: Thanks, I had actually used that to narrow down my search earlier today, and was excited to see that a store near me in Aliso Viejo, CA had it "Available", but when I got to the store, there were none on the shelves or on the sides of any of the aisles near or around the toy dept.

I ended up visiting two Targets to no avail. Debating driving a little further tomorrow to try stores that have it flagged as "Limited Availability".

That's too bad. One store I went to had it clearly marked on the clearance endcap, but at another store it was mixed in with sets of the same box size, either the City Truck or the Passenger Plane.

I got a Clone Battle pack (With the Clone Walker) for a nice $5.98. It rang up for nothing, but they gave me half-off.

My Target had a City Corner, but it rang up full price. I'm probably late on checking this set anyways as it's been awhile since they had the reduced priced sets.

My store still has a bunch of Galactic Enforcers but they actually took off the clearance stickers on them and they ring up full price. How odd.

Playing with LEGO when I can. Where does the time go?

Thanks. I was able to find a store with one through your link. What path are you taking at target.com to search availability? I can't seem to figure it out.

@Timetempest: I can't speak for Glewisorg, but how I stumbled upon that was by realizing that Target uses Amazon's inventory system for their items.

So what you can do is find the item on amazon.com, and copy the ASIN (Amazon Standard Identification Number) that's listed under Product Details. Take that number and replace the ASIN number in the link Glewisorg provided and browse to that page to access target.com's Find in Store functionality without actually being able to find that item via target.com's search functionality.

Hope that helps!

Which Target was this?
This was at the Anaheim Hills Target. But they have none left. BUT WAIT!!!

I saw a boat load of the same set at the Target on Harbor just south of Disney Land. This was about 3 weeks ago, but prior to them going on clearance. They may have some left there. It might be worth a shot.

Yeah that! I used to have another link that used target's dpci number, but that seems to have stopped working.

On an end cap at the Target here there were three sets at 39.99. One of them was a Star Wars set. I think the most this takes off each set is 10 dollars. The Galactic Enforcer was there too. There were actually about 10 of them. I was excited and brought one to the scanner and it said 69.99. So much for everything under the sign being that price. But this is a heads up if you live nearby- some nice sets cheaper.

As of today Target in Mountain View, Calif. has Buzz's Spaceship (7593) at half off. (now $15) There were 7 left hidden away near the back corner on an end cap in the Toy section.
