UPDATE
Collecticon has dropped us a line to let us know he used the DCPI snipe tactic.
They provided
a full rundown of how they pulled it off, but in short, the DCPI code is how Target keeps track of their stock numbers information may be found on the respective store's website.
For example, Sentinel Prime's DCPI code is 087-06-2294 and is found in the "Shipping and Additional Information" tab on the
product page.
It should be noted that your success depends on how many people have tried this at a particular store at any given day and the workers that you encounter at said store (i.e., how much they care about street dates).

ORIGINAL POST
Transformers Dark of the Moon toys are out, at least in a Chicago, IL Target store.
With a little over three weeks before the official May 16, 2011 launch of the toyline, our friends at
Collecticon stopped by their local Chicago area Target store tonight and picked up leader class Bumblebee and Sentinel Prime.
Just in case we did not believe them, they provided an image as proof.

We asked them which specific store they went to and will provide the location when we get it.
