You may know all about how great Target toy sales are, but let me introduce you to the not-as-well-known Target toy collectibles section.

If you have a passion for collecting unique toys, games, trading cards, and replicas, The Collectorā€™s Spot on Target.com is THE place to go for all your favorite collectibles ā€” aka items you wonā€™t always find in the regular toy section. This is where youā€™ll find special edition toys ā€” like discontinued cards and board games, retro comics and graphic novels, unique car collectibles, and more. Youā€™ll be able to preorder these items as soon as theyā€™re released online for a delivery date in the next three to five months.

And, like just about everything else Target sells, you can save 5% on toy collectibles from Target when you pay with your RedCard.

Here weā€™ll tell you everything you need to know about Target toy collectibles. Donā€™t forget to download The Krazy Coupon Lady app to stay on top of all the latest Target deals.

Returning Target toy collectibles is easy (and free), but there are a few exceptions.

You can return most toy collectibles to Target for free. But there are a few exceptions in the Target return policy to know about before you buy.

First, you canā€™t return trading cards or trading card accessories. This goes for collectibles like Pokemon cards, sports cards, or trading card binders.

Second, Target wonā€™t accept open or defective collectibles. So before you rip open your latest purchase out of excitement, think twice. If youā€™re not 100% sure you love it, keep the item packaged up until you decide.
