The Toys-R-Us said they had a release date of Tuesday, but one of the Targets had a Loki on the shelf, so I know Target has been selling them.

I FOUND ARES!!! I ended up stopping at the Target closest to me and, while they didn't have an Ares in stock, they had a couple others and the guy was able to give me the DPCI number. I checked and it said a Target a few towns away had 3, so I called. The guy said they didn't have any on the shelf, and said that meant they didn't have any. I apologized in advance and then hounded him to check in the back for me. He was adamant that they didn't have any, but he found some. Of course "Ares" isn't on the front of the package for some stupid reason, so I had to describe the figure to him, and he ended up finding it! He was really cool and put it aside for me so I ran down and grabbed it. Definitely above and beyond in my opinion, and I'm really stoked to have this figure.

They must have put the other two on the shelf once they found them in the back because there was a movie Thor and a young Thor on the shelf when I got there. I wasn't looking for them, but hopefully someone else who is looking, but wouldn't have thought to have them check in back, will be able to find them now.

For anyone looking, the DPCI is 087069264.
