Hi McMetal.

Did you pick up the Building Set of Dale's RV?

Hi McMetal.

Did you pick up the Building Set of Dale's RV? I am tempted, but telling myself I need that money for the 4th............

You know, I was going to but held off initially when I saw it at Walmart for $50. Then by the time I got around to picking it up, I suddenly couldn't find any at ANY Walmart around here. Very odd. I have no interest in paying $10 more for this at TRU either, so it is on the back burner for now.

I did find the brand new Upper and Lower Prison Cells at Walmart last week and bought both of those. They are excellent. I have heard the Boiler Room set is out also but have yet to see that anywhere.

Also, on a slightly different note, I am seeing multiple reports of people finding the Walgreens exclusive Deputy Rick @ Walmart of all places. I have looked all over and only found 1 store that even carried WD figures but they only had the Daryl and Chopper Sets and the last TV wave. I'm going nuts trying to find that stupid thing...it's the only WD figure I've never seen at a store. (yet)

Just an FYI I've seen the RV at some of the Targets around me for $50

Thanks for the tip! I actually found the RV set at a local a Target tonight, along with the Boiler Room set. I ended up only buying the latter, but will definitely be going back for the RV soon.

Picked up Dale's RV from Target Friday night and finished putting it together last night. Fun build. I really need a better space to display these things though.

Still can't find the Walgreens exclusive Deputy Rick figure either.  >:(

Amidst all the hustle and bustle of MM, one of the surprising bright spots for me was finding the oh-so elusive Deputy Rick exclusive at Walmart, finally.

So happy I held out and did not resort to the secondary market. The collection is now complete again.  ;D

I found the exclusive Grave Digger Daryl figure at Walgreens this morning. I had heard he was making his way east, so I'm glad I made the effort to get out. Very nice figure!

Picked up the Prison Catwalk set and a bunch of brand new Series 3 blind bags @ TRU last night. Psyched!

Aw yeah! TV Series 8 in da house!!  ;D
 
Picked up Rick, Bob, Dale, and Morgan @ TRU over lunch today. No sign of Eugene - I have heard there are case assortments with and without him though so maybe he's more of a "chase" figure at this point.  The other 4 look outstanding though, really the best they have done yet, IMO. Great paint apps, great sculpts.

Also snagged the Deluxe Morgan versus Walker Boxed Set or whatever...$29.99, good stuff in there too.

Great toy day overall today!

A trip to the crosstown TRU paid off and I was lucky enough to find a lone Eugene on the pegs. Hell yeah!

I'm good now til terminus Carol and bloody Tyreese exclusives come out...

I love getting new figures right before the TV season launches!

Picked up the Woodbury Assault Vehicle building set on Friday.  :)

Also read that the exclusive Tyreese figure is starting to hit now at Target. Definitely need to keep an eye out for that!

I bought the new 10" Michonne @ TRU today...$10 cheaper than GameStop. Nice figure.

After quite a bit of cyber and in person stalking, I was finally able to snag the GameStop Exclusive Carol today. What a great figure...amazing likeness too.

Still on the hunt for Tyreese...

I got the Daryl/Merle walker arena building set Friday at a local comic shop. Still no sign of the Hospital Doors set though. I did spy a bunch of the new GoT sets at TRU the other day but had to just walk away.

That Target exclusive Tyreese figure is starting to piss me off too. Our local stores suck.

2015 was a great year for this line, keep up the good work next year!
