Another year, another
Haulathon prematurely spoiled by
Target, with new action figures that haven't even been announced yet already appearing in some stores around the country. Scalpers are already buying the new sets and putting them on ebay, collectors in Facebook groups are showing severe symptoms of FOMO, which can only mean one thing:
Spring has arrived! ToyFarce investigated...
After 3 or 4 years of the
exact same thing happening before every Haulathon (products showing up on shelves weeks before the event is even announced), we sat down with some experts to explain what the cause is: "
The Target Haulathon seems to always happen around March. Do you know what also happen during that time? We set the clocks an hour forward (or "lose" an hour), for Daylight Saving Time or DST (not to be confused with Diamond Select Toys). During the first few weeks of Daylight Saving Time, people are usually tired, less productive and make more mistakes, such as putting products from an upcoming event too early on the shelves! The Target employees probably got confused about how much time they did 'spring forward', and thought it was already time for the event."
That's right, folks! It was
DST all along! (
again, not to be confused with Diamond Select Toys). Now you know, and you know what they say about knowing: it's half the battle! (
what's the other half?!)
What are you going to (
try to) grab during the
Target Haulathon? Let us know in the comments!
