Barnabas, no they were not on the floor, but I will check on that immediately!!
UPDATE: thanks for the heads up Barnabas!
I asked the manager and he put them out, and said it shouldn't be long for the catwoman figure.
I snagged a couple to share-
Congrats on Penguin. Best I can tell from the photos, the face sculpt looks great.

Here they are
Awesome! Glad you were able to snag these Jimmy. Out of interest, are these showing as in stock online in the store that you grabbed them from? Or was this trial and error running into different stores?
Trail and error, same store. Online availability does not match what is in stock. Some figures say out of stock, unavailable and I know there are some. Others say in stock, but i know there is not any. I go there almost every day.

Just got the notice that the shipping date for all of this wave is March 25th-- so the sell on date has been corrected, at least online.
Thanks Andy, I will check on those catwoman(s) today.

fyi, I got my shipping notice, too, which is atypical as I usually get a cancellation notice for a Target online pre-order (weeks or months after the pre-order) and then the merchandise arrives in stores 1-2 weeks later.

I am not seeing Catwoman on the Target page, does that mean they sold out them?
I noticed that the Catwoman figure is not searchable via Target.com as of this morning. That being said, it was still showing up at the bottom of the page where it shows things that you have recently searched. Clicking through, the product page is still active and it actually shows Catwoman as "in stock" at my nearest store. Going to scope it out this afternoon...

Update:
I ran down and managed to grab a couple.
This might be my new favorite, at least until the Julie is released. I would REALLY love a Lee, she is my favorite, but I realize that is unlikely. I assume we would have gotten wind of that here.
Any hoo- Ben, if you went down I won't leave you on the hook. I will still trade if you like.

FYI- I just noticed the Boxing Riddler on Ebay
I appreciate that Jimbo, but i'm going to keep looking for a little while - thrill of the chase and all that
I went to my nearest store last night having seen that both Catwoman and Penguin were listed online as "In Stock" albeit not available for pick-up or delivery. Sure enough they were not on the pegs in the collectors section (nor the regular toy aisle, which by mistake the previous figures in this line have sometimes been stocked over there in certain Target stores i've visited). Anyhow, I asked a member of staff and she looked it up on her handheld. Interestingly, she told me that they had none on the floor, none in the back but 6 on hand... She genuinely didn't know what that meant, likewise I don't have a clue what that could mean either. Like I said, no sign on the pegs in either section. I think it's fair to say that these figures aren't quite "out" just yet, but with the pre-order notification emails stating 25th March, i'm guessing we'll see a full roll-out in the coming week or two.
For Catwoman I had to show the employee the barcode- which I luckily had a picture of- and he scanned that with his device. "No problem, I can grab that from the back for you."
Maybe this will help.
I scored one of each in-store this morning! Really, really dig these two likenesses. An umbrella and Cigarette holder with Penguin would have taken this figure to another level.
The Eartha figure is even more charming in person IMHO, so pleased we got her in this line!

Ben,
Is it easier to find/buy these figures here or in the UK?
Hey Lou, I actually live in California now, I moved permanently at the start of this year. I grabbed all of my figures from regular Target stores in my area here in the Valley.
