I missed ordering Supergirl from Target originally. In the old days of usenet and rec.toys.actionfigures it was easy being on the torch list of good traders to get one at cost plus shipping, or I could get one through the 1 to 1 club. I figured my only option was ebay, so I have been waiting for the prices to drop a bit...lo and behold I check one final time with the Target app and my store has one left at $15 (on sale even). I ordered it for pick up and I got my Supergirl. Beautiful figure. Might have to repaint the legs a flesh tone, but it is beautiful. Man I love the internet.

Reminds me of the Toys R Us story where Kenner Aliens figures were being test marketed at ToysRUs in Cincinnati, Ohio. Not being in that city or state I figured my chances of getting them to be less than zero percent. Called the local ToysRUs, got a number for a TRU in Cincinnati, and as dumb as I'm sure it sounded, I live in another state and another city and I would just like to buy a complete set of your test market figures and have them shipped to me many many states over. Yeah, it worked.
