I feel a little shy asking as it's a bit of a long shot, but I thought I'd ask anyway (since it never ever hurts to ask :). I'm wondering if a really kind person might be able to try and nab me something on Y!J that finishes in a few hours?
Naturally I would of course do it myself, but my SMJ account isn't authorised yet and I can't ;_; I do have

If you don't mind me asking, are you in the U.S. by any chance? I've always wondered if it's possible to get zukans here in the states, cuz apparently they don't sell kids here =\

I'll be buying more though, so if I get any doubles, I'll probably sell them on here if I'm allowed :D
I'm actually in Australia! Which is even more surprising, because we really do get bugger-all Pokemon stuff out here on the best of days nowadays (at least here in Sydney, our Jakks Pacific D/P line toys can best be described as 'Leftovers'), so it was a bit of a shock to find zukans in a department store D:

But, yea, I don't make it too much of a regular thing to travel out to Little Tokyo. I end up spending money, after all. XD; Thank goodness for the Metro Rail, though. :3 I don't have to drive all the way out to L.A. to get Poke goods. :)
What state do you live in, btw?

As far as I know, anything 'store-specific', such as the Target 10th Anniversary figures, and the TRU Jumbo Dialga/Palkia are US-only, or US/UK-only. Our local Target hasn't had Pokemon items at all for months as it is D: I plan to make a trip to the TRU some time this week so I can double-check about the D/P figures, since it seems we've just recently received the D/P lines out here, but we've not had the store-exclusive figures here before and I'm pretty sure we still don't get them.
You guys also get Pokemon hand-outs, like Darkrai just recently :D We get them extremely rarely; a store chain had Manaphy this year as an Easter promotion, however, so maybe we're finally getting into gear with heck, the rest of the world XD I could very likely be wrong, but I think the last hand-out here before Manaphy was the R/B/Y Mew ( ... )

but YES! I like the events, guess I kinda took them for granted. Aw, maybe in the future hopefully? =]

Oh yea... perhaps Target and TRU has a few US only items...? *shrugs* Were you talking about the jumbo Dialga/Palkia figures or plush? As far as Southern Califirnia goes, we haven't gotten the huge plushes to my utter dismay. ;_; I've always wanted a big Dialga, but the import is always around $60 and I don't wanna spend that much on one plush. ^^;
Yea, but the hand-out downloads are just mirrored from Japan. ^^; So, I'd hardly call them "exclusive." ^^; They are out for a limited time only, so maybe THAT can be viewed as "exclusive"? XD; We are JUST getting Deoxys for download while the UK got them years ago, I believe. ^^; I got mine yesterday at Gamestop. :3
haha! One would hope. ^^ I think it's also to make money off of the people who can't access country exclusive items. XD;

Ahh, you're lucky you get to do even that much. XD I'm all the way on the other side of the country in WV...know of any places for poke merch around here? I know there's always NYC but even that's a little far from here...especially with the crazyyy gas prices now and whatnot. bleh.

Um... not too familiar with stuff out in West Virginia. Sorry. ;_; Perhaps you could google toy stores out there with the word "Pokemon" included and see what you come up with. :)
You're lucky you live somewhat close to NYC. I've always wanted to visit the now Nintendo World. I just wanna buy some decently priced Poke plush. XD; I have a friend who lives close to NYC, as well. She lives in Maine. But I couldn't ask her to go all the way down there to get me Poke goods. ^^;;
Can you maybe get there by bus or train? Would that be cheaper? ^^
