Captain America Wave 2

I agree.. I enjoyed reading that one. That was a great one-shot. Crossbones is one bad mother--

Now I'm hoping that Hasbro would release him in his classic sleeveless look with a crossbones logo on the chest.

So I broke down and got myself BuckyCap and Red Skull after finding them in Walmart today, after saying i was probably gonna wait for the Two-Packs. Could'nt help it. No Crossbones though.

Funny story...my girlfriend didnt beleive me when i told her how stock-boys hide certain figures all over the store for others to come retrive them later. I told her the tale of maybe they might do it for a freind, or to make a few extra bucks, and how they come in and clean out a certain figure from the shelves and sell it on Ebay. And thats just the way the collector world is...its like a chase. Always gotta be one step ahead. So to demonstrate i pulled out from the bottom rack a few Cap shields and there lay a Giant Man/ Ragnarok set. That just seemed to set her off on some sort of derranged easter egg hunt! She just tore through the isle trying to find other hidden little gems. Thats when she found Red Skull...hidden behind some ugly Green Latern figs =D Anywho...she uncovered a whole bunch of stuff stashed away...some Transformers, some MU, some Beyblade (WTF said I?) and she was so happy! Now she wants to come hunting with me all the time. It was an awesome day!

Sir, she is a keeper! Happy future hunting, and good luck! =D

Slap a ring on her before I do!

eva00kai · 06-02-2011, 11:57 PM

Haha thats how my wife is. At first she was indifferent to my addiction, but now she is just like that, she knows what im looking for even.

save some for the rest of us!

I owe a set to a friend for a birthday when my hasbro case shipped me my 0 crossbones case.

And now I finally have a sealed pair for myself since I couldn't wait to open my first 2!

However, if he already has a set, which I should find out today whenever he gets back to me (he lives in Georgia currently) then first one to call dibs on the pair on here can have them at cost + shipping!

Redlantern161 · 06-03-2011, 10:58 AM

Victory!!! Nabbed one red skull today before i headed to school!!!!!!! & tomorrow that crossbones is mine baby!!!!!!!!!

kostej · 06-03-2011, 11:06 AM

Dibs!

Ronin11 · 06-03-2011, 12:07 PM

While on a toy safari yesterday, I found the elusive Red Skull and Crossbones in the wild. I went to a Disney store and saw they had W2 on the pegs no RS or CB. I asked an employee if they had anymore, he went into the back and brought out an unopened case of W2. Score.

They cost a little more than average ($9.50), but they're mine.

Haloid1177 · 06-03-2011, 01:21 PM

Got the Bucky Cap today. Amazing figure. Probably my favorite Marvel figure I own. It just looks great, and mine has a perfectly centered "A" on the head and generally good paint apps.

Symbiote · 06-03-2011, 01:54 PM

Thanks to you guys, I finally found red skull, crossbones and movie cap at the disney store. Its always a great moment finding stuff on pegs at retail price.

afgoosett · 06-03-2011, 03:30 PM

Too bad the disney store in my area has been closed down. It sucks too becausse it's starting to seem like that's where all the little hidden gems are stashed away. I've pretty much given up hope on stores in my area I still haven't found a Cable yet (if anyone could help it'd be amazing) or seen any of wave 13 for that matter. Maybe I think I'm just going to start preordering cases from bbts I might have to pay a little extra but I think it's worth it because then I'm guaranteed my figures and I can pay two more bucks for near perfect paint apps.

Jason Abbadon · 06-03-2011, 05:37 PM

Must...find..disney...store...

Colder Soldier · 06-05-2011, 07:37 AM

Just found a deluxe Hydra Trooper at my TRU. I'm I the first?

Pic when I get home. This site ain't letting me upload it from my phone.

They have the same prices as TRU unfortunately but somehow they get the best paint apps I guess the Disney store is cool with Hasbro so they are thankful enough to give better painted figures to them & even rarer MU figures

Damn all of u with your awesome finds... I have 2 sources for toys a walmart and a zellers, I spoke to a rep at both and said they can't see getting any Cap figures. There's new transformers and Green lantern figs starting to cover the pegs, I was lucky to snag some new 6'' IM figures, but no titanium man, someone cherry picked him! I will probably go back and pick up the gold/back suitcase armour, but I left it for now, not as nice looking as the red, IMO, and we have no disney store, I have no visa to order from BBTS, frustation sets in,... I will be broke after getting some bills taken care of, paycheck after I'm hoping my luck changes... not to mention this stupid mail strike doesn't help any!

Redlantern161 · 06-05-2011, 11:22 AM

Well If anybody wants anything in the disney store just PM me & I can see if I can find you any spiderman, some MU, & Cap figures

miketime · 06-05-2011, 12:06 PM

I too had luck whilst food shopping at good ol Walmart. Red Skull, Cross Bones, Us Agent, Cable, & Cyclops. Only missing a few MU figs.

Tiberius · 06-05-2011, 12:18 PM

Very nice pictures, Mike! Just need that Red Guardian for my Russian mafia. Is that the Alexi Shostakov Red Guardian?

To be honest with you IDK. Its the K-mart 3 pack & I threw away the package.

Tiberius · 06-05-2011, 12:27 PM

No K-Mart for me, sadly. Only need the RG anyways. Maybe ebay will have some good deals sooner or later.
