Target Will Sell Science Museum Hoodie Seen On 'Stranger Things'

MINNEAPOLIS, MN — The popular "Brontosaurus" hoodie that made an appearance in the Netflix hit "Stranger Things" will soon be available at a Target store near you. The hoodie — originally sold in the early 80s in the Science Museum of Minnesota's gift shop — rose to fame when it was worn by character Dustin Henderson in Stranger Things.

"We’ve teamed up with the museum — a beloved Minnesota institution that’s just minutes from our headquarters — to carry the original dino-stamped hoodie," the Minneapolis-based company announced Monday.

The hoodie will be available in sizes XS through XXL in stores only starting later this month. The purple hoodie features a rendering of a long-necked dinosaur and reads "Brontosaurus, 'Thunder Lizard.'"

A social media follower tipped off the Science Museum to the sweatshirt's appearance in the show Oct. 27, the day the second season of Stranger Things was released. The museum was flooded with phone calls, emails, and social media posts from fans anxious to get their hands on the vintage sweatshirt.

If you can't wait for Target's rollout of the new merchandise, the museum currently sells the hoodies on its website.
