I wonder if like the throws there will be subtle differences between the clothing that's available now and what was originally sold.
Do you think if I close my eyes and wish really hard, the B&W sweater coat will magically become available?
Also, some things never change - I just recd a delay notice for the bath towels I ordered Wed. even tho they're still available on the website. The hand towel and throw pillow have "shipped" (well, not really. Target sent me a tracking number that doesn't really exist yet!), but the bath towels haven't

Welcome back, this thread is resurrected! I broke down and ordered the gold space dye cardigan and shell because the fabric is so nice. And just when I was sure I was done.
The colore chevron platter is back in stock. I bought so many of those as gifts last time it came back in stock. I couldn't resist and bought one more for my cousin.
Well, I received my umbrella and men's scarf today shockingly fast for Target! (est. date of arrival was Monday of next week!) No complaints there, however, I will say that the Q4 men's scarf is definitely lighter and not as tightly woven as the Q2 men's scarf that I bought for DH! The colors are still vibrant but there is an obvious difference in the weight of the scarf. I don't think I would have paid full price if I had seen it first, but I was using my DH's scarf as my reference! I may be returning? We'll see. I hope the brown cardi isn't lacking in quality because I won't be happy about that at all.I wonder if like the throws there will be subtle differences between the clothing that's available now and what was originally sold.

even though I've been eyeing the items for a long time.
Of course you ladies beat me to it! I was just logging on to let you all know that nearly everything is back in stock.
It actually makes me a little sick, the way I ran to get everything and now it's just readily available... sigh...

I wonder if these are returns or a second round of manufacturing? I got the cardigan for the hubby and a hand towel for the powder room

I'm curious about the brown cardi as well. The original is nice and thick and soft, but it piles very easily and mine has tons of fuzzies all over it. I know it's meant to look fuzzy to a degree, but it does get worse the more you wash and wear it (and I don't dry mine - I hang everything). The black sweater also piles after a few washes and wears but not as much as the brown. I can snip the fuzzies from the B&W cardi and it still looks new. If the newer ones aren't made the same as the originals I think these could look crappy over time.
I think Missoni is taking a big risk by allowing Target to rerelease these things at a lower quality. One of the most common things I heard about the MfT line was how nice the quality was. I know I've bought a lot of designer for Target items over the years and the quality of the Missoni items was far superior to anything I've bought in the past. That had to be a really good thing for both Missoni and Target, but if the quality of the new stuff is far below the original stuff and the stuff starts to fall apart or looks lousy after a few washings, that could come back to bite them in the a$$.

I'm pretty sure it's a second round of manufacturing. The throw blankets that were available last month had tags that said Q4 underneath the Missoni for Target tag, while the original ones said Q3. There were also differences in the colors, the thickness and weight of the blankets bought now compared to the ones bought in September.
There's also far too many clothing items available now for them to all be returns. They must have rushed another production through in order to meet the demand.
This could also explain why returns at the store are being salvaged rather than put back on the sales floor - most of the things on the website are still being sold at full price while the stores clearanced whatever they had left. They probably don't want people buying things at full price online and then returning them and buying them back at a reduced price in the store (which was happening A LOT).
