It could be due to restocking that I am not seeing - but at this point, it seems everything is pegging

The Bullpen / Re: Marvel Universe

Just after writing the above post yesterday I did get some luck.
at TRU in Mishawaka, Indiana I grabbed: MJ, Iron Patriot and Winter Soldier (short hair). Someone beat me to the other 3 in that wave.
At Target I nabbed the Wolverine with the nice head sculpt. Also noticed that Walmart had them too.
But still, on a discouraging note - Target now has a full peg of the Silver/Red Iron Man, a full peg of House of M Spidey, and I think a full peg of Cap Americas. So I am not really thinking I will see anything new in a while. I do try and help the cause whenever I go there by moving some of the peg warmers to the end cap that has figures on it now - in hopes that some kids will have their parents impulse buy them.

If that is true, and it is in scale, and despite the fact that I really don't know much about Star Tours itself (having never been to it), I will buy it.

I have only seen 4 of the Spiderman/Goblin sets and 1 of the Wolverine/Ninja Set. I was mildly interested in the Black Panther set, and slightly more interested in the Punisher set - but having not seen them yet I am guessing I will be forced to pass.
On a slightly discouraging note, people are finding the Skrull wave and the Mystique wave already and all I have seen is the Juggie wave.
Nice to hear the newer comic packs are showing up - pretty certain I will be grabbing one of each in the in upcomming comic pack wave. I am pretty sure I am not interested in the Cap/Wolvie pack and Thor/Iron Man pack from the following wave.

I got my first free Rex helmet in the mail today. Pretty shocked when it got here - a $40 product for nothing - not even paying shipping. pretty great!

The Clone Wars '08-'13 / Re: Recent Clone Wars Finds/Purchases
« on: August 9, 2010, 09:57 AM »Went back to Target this morning and picked up the RC Hailfire Droid. Not sure if I will open this or not, but at that price I'm not buying more than one.
Hit up Wal-Mart too, they were in mid-reset, no figures up yet, but they had a couple of Force Battlers. No Jabba.
Still no Jodo #$%^&* Kast at K-Mart. MAN, I cannot wait to stop frequenting those stores.
You had better plan to open that Hailfire. It is such a fun toy! Banthaskull.com has a pretty good review of this with a neat video of the toy in action.
And your Wal-Mart is clearly doing better than mine. There is no reset in sight.
thanks for the video link, I had been waiting to see it in action (can't believe hasbro didn't showcase it more). It didn't look all that fast to me, but I did like the missle firing. I would also like to see how it runs on carpet.

Joe Defender / Re: G.I. Joe Pursuit of Cobra (POC)
« on: August 9, 2010, 09:41 AM »POC figs were $6.97 at my nearby WM this weekend... I thought I'd read $9.99 prices or something? If I'm wrong though, sorry, just figured I'd post the cost I saw on the one POC figure I saw.
they were, they adjusted them back down the other day

yeah CC has a new head.
I saw these for the first time at WM last night and yeah they were $10 each. I did grab CC since supposedly he is going to be rare - but I have a feeling he wont really be that hard to find and I can take back my $10 version...

I am not 100% certain, but I am pretty sure that the Iron Man in that pack has more accurate paint apps than it its single carded release. I think it has the same apps as the Hall of Armor Target exclusive verion.

I pre-ordered those 4 EE exclusive comic sets - do you think a receipt from that showing my order # would work for this?
edit: just read all the fine print and you guys certainly are right. It does not say anywehre anything about one per household. And it also does not say anything about pre-orders not being eligible - they just want an order #
