Well there's your money maker right there.

Legend of Zelda, partly painted black


The gold cart shells were black plastic instead of gray like normal ones. More likely that is where the gold has been scraped off.

Success! At my Target there was no clearance end cap and I found one set still sitting with the other novelty pint glasses. The clearance sticker on them still says $9.98 which I would have happily paid anyway since I'd considered them at $20 anyway, but they rang up $4.98 at the register. :mrgreen:

I think I'll ask my parents to check their Target anyway if they're going anytime soon and get a second set.

@ sbk THANKYOU!!!
$4.98 at Target.


Second Target store only had one set, a remote search only showed one more set at another Target in the whole county. Too far away, so I settled for the slightly damaged box. Since these were already a clearance item at $9.98, very likely at the clearance end cap or buried in receiving.

I'm a firm believer of breaking the seal on video games, but in this case the rum and coke can go in another glass. Keeping these CIB on display at the wall unit. :D

Couldn't find it on the web site, but there are others:

Here is the info in case anyone else needs a set:
Target Store SKU: 200 02 2195
Manufacturer UPC: 6 74449 08946 1

Yea that skew number is what we call the DCPI number and if you have that number they can directly pull up how many they have in that store and every other store in the nereby areas.

And your all welcome :mrgreen:


Also @ S1mplehumar I did pick up an extra one and I can probably still gab some more. How much Do you think it would cost to ship them where they are well protected? I can pick some more up if people want to pay the 5 bucks for them and shipping cost. I'll check back on my lunch at work so just message me and we can see what we can do.
