Ha, we're even.

Not that I can promise anything, but does anyone down south need help with NHL11?  I've had notoriously bad luck with the Canadian only series, so I see no reason for it not to continue (lots of extra scalpers on these series).  That and I used my luck up on NBA Legends already.

Brent, you scored a Nets Doctor J?  If you score another I would definitely consider trading my She-Hulk to you.

Yeah, I scored one.  I'll hunt for another for sure. 

Mmmm, green...

Hey Brent - The only NHL 11 I want is the regular Kiprusoff and a chase Nieuwendyk (blue Leafs uni.)  LMK if you spot one and I'm an opener so the only thing I care about is the paint job.

Mark Weber confirmed yesterday that there is NO Jovanovski chase in this series.  This is by far one of the weakest series of any sport to date.

Kipper should be no problem.  I'll see what I can do about the chase Nieuwy.

The vultures are severely circling on this one.  Everybody's panties get in a huge bunch for the Canadian only series as their eyes glaze over with dreams of ebay glory ::)

The only thing I want is a regular and a chase of Khabibulin, because I can pretty much guarantee it will be the last WInnipeg Jets figure they ever make.  I guess if they ever made a Numminen figure for the Coyotes they could do a Jets chase, or maybe a Hawerchuk in the Legends line, but I doubt legends will last that long ;)

They aren't out in Winnipeg yet, even though they're in most markets already.  Hoping to see them on Monday or thereabouts.  Should have Kipper by the end of the week.  I guess Nieuwendyk too if I'm going to get my hands on one.

I've arranged for your Kipper thus far but no luck with Nieuwy.  Yet.  I'll get him. 

Funny thing happened today.  Box arrived on my desk about the right size for a McFarlane fig.  Didn't make any trades, but I recognized the name on the front.  Open it up and inside is a nice, white Khabibulin :o  Totally unsolicited from a guy named Brew who some of you know from snowtroopers.ca and others know from spawn.com.  Way cool start to the week 8)

Also found a white Walton, one genuinely butt ugly figure. :P

Figures, I arrange a trade to get a white Bird and I find one in the store tonight.  Walmart, 9 pm.  Weird :-\  Only chase I haven't found in this line is the Chamberlain.  Also weird.

Have a nice Kiprusoff for you right now.  Just having no luck yet on the chase.  Only one retailer left, so I should know in a day or two whether I'll stumble into a Nieuwendyk for you. 

I actually found my first regular Khabibulin today at retail.  It's been unreal around town, tons of everything but.  Apparently one of the flea market guys has about 40 on a table ::)

So I go to Walmart and after picking up a Clone 3-pack I walk thru the aisles.  I notice some basketball SPs and low and behold its a new case of series 7 on the peg.  I picked up the red Carter, but I'm thinking to myself are they just putting out series 7 now?  This is the first time I saw this series at this Walamrt, so I guess so.  Anyone's Walmart doing the samething?

7?? :o  Wow, that's old.  Only one I found from that series was a red Carter as well.  Pretty funny to find it too.  I picked it up at TRU, where I've found precisely three variants in four years and it was at 10:30 in the morning.  Found a ton of LOTR for a buddy at the same time.  I was dropping stuff left and right on the floor, sort of embarassing but lots of fun.
