Chicago Toy Show at Kane County Fairgrounds this weekend, recurring regularly thereafter: Chicago Toy Show Home

Arkham Asylum figures are at the Graham Crackers comic shop in naperville. I picked up Bane, that dude is huge!

[hrothgars]

Yeah, Brainstorm in Wicker Park carries a decent selection of DC Classics (Wave 18), Blackest Night, Brightest Day (Firestorm, Martian Manhunter, Hawkgirl) Arkham Asylum, and a few Marvel Select (Grey Hulk + 1 or 2 others) figures with only a slight mark-up ($19.99-$21.99).

The Exchange carries various action figures from various lines, but sometimes they have some unrealistic pricing. A Marvel Legends Series 3 Wolverine with obvious paint app issues was priced at $30 when I was there within the last week.

[77kustoms]

Target in Wheaton has the new 6" Bat Man and Joker figs I forget the name of the line. Also the Two pack Arkham city Prototype Batsuit/ Gordon and BatMan / Two Face

GI JOE Skystriker and Ultimate OP

Thanks,
Larry

Seen what?

[larryw3158]

Sorry, I put it in the title but it didn't show up. I was asking about the Wal-Mart Exclusive 6" Thor, Nick Fury and Captain America movie figures.

Its cool, I forgot about these so thanks for reminding me!

[hrothgars]

I have not yet seen these either. They were front pages a few months ago, but I haven't heard much about them since.

The gap between the Thor & Captain America movies and Avengers is going to be longer than it might seem (approx. 2 years) so they may be intended to fill the space in between the end of the earlier toy lines and the beginning of the Avengers toy line.

Just a guess...

I will be sure to post here if I should see them sooner.

[77kustoms]

1 Catman legacy figure at the tru on 75th in Woodridge. Sucks I missed Batgirl as its the only wave 2 figure I want. No sign of new Arkham City.

[77kustoms]

I found the latest wave of Joes at the Oswego wmart. I didn't get Stalker, im just not sold on him. Anyone know who the coming soon figs are? Were those supposed to be the renegades figs?

[77kustoms]

1 batgirl and 2 catman left at the batavia wmart on kirk rd.

[DogFashionDisco]

Found two stretch strike venom figures at the Disney store in downtown chicago.

[77kustoms]

I found the full Gi Joe Renegades wave at the walmart in oswego on Orchard 1 set left.

Also found x23, Steve Rogers and ultron at the tru in north aurora 1on Steve and 2 ultron left.

[77kustoms]

Has anyone seen Heimdall and Sif from the movie Thor line? They are all I Need to complete my movie line!

Huh?
There is no Walmart in Oswego on Orchard. There is one on Ogden/Rt34.
The WM on Orchard is in Montgomery.
Toys R Us in North Aurora??? Where??? Is it a Toys R Us Express?
There is only a Target in North Aurora.

I haven't seen any Sif or Heimdall anywhere. I had to trade for Sif. I'm still looking for a Heimdall.

My bad I thought the wmart on orchard was in oswego, a member of another board said it was oswego. As for the tru I guess I meant target, I usually type in a hurry and was possibly thinking of my next stop....I don't recall what was going on that day , stupid thing is that where I work is a block away. Either way the orchard/ Randall targets and wmarts are pretty much up to speed...aside from sif and heimdall.

[77kustoms]

Montgomery wmart had all 6" exclusives out and in abundance as of 10am.

Chicago Toy Show at Kane County Fairgrounds this Sunday, 10/23/2011: Chicago Toy Show Home

[transformer8448]

Target Crystal Lake - Couple of TF Universe Scourge and Sergeant Kup, Some of the new G.I Joes, (the Destro figure looked so damn cool, but I refrained from buying it as I don't collect Joes)

Toys R Us Crystal Lake - Amazing stock of MU/TF Crossovers, regular Thor movie 3.75" line,

Target McHenry - MU Imperius Rex Namors by the boatload, Darkhawks, X-23, Falcons, and the lone Gladiator remaining

New Super Walmart McHenry - Super stock of most TF DOTM including Shockwave, Good collection of Captain America movie line, same for Thor.

If any of you are looking for something specific, I could go over and take a look.

I'll be hitting Algonquin tomorrow all day and scoping out Kohl's, Super Target, Toys R Us, and Super Walmart there (all in one line). Will update with what I find there.

Can you let me know if any of the TRUs have the DCUC Mad Love Joker/Harley Quinn 2-pack? Also, any DCUC figs are of interest to me. I can swing through that way when I head up to my folks' house this weekend in western Kenosha County.

Thanks!

[transformer8448]

Kohl's Algonquin - major dud.

Super Target Algonquin - Some good stuff there. Still carrying quite a few MU figures from previous lines, including Moon Knight, Doom, Falcon, Thanos, Skaar, World War Hulk, Darkhawk etc. Regular figures of TF DOTM, TFU, TF Generations. Decent DCUC collection and awesome stock of Batman Legacy Collection.

Toys R Us Algonquin - Good variety of DCUC, MU, TF DOTM, but not too much from other TF lines. Awesome collection of The Walking Dead, WWE, Halo. This is one extremely well stocked TRU.

Super Walmart Algonquin - nothing of note here, regular popular stock of TF DOTM, MU, WWE. Poor stock of DCUC, although I did spot the DCUC Crime Syndicate of America 5-pack. I was very tempted to pick it up as it looked spectacular sitting there, but then I remembered that I don't collect DC stuff.

Surprise package was the TJMaxx right next to TRU. They had GIJoe ROC 3.75" figures for $4 each. There was a Rex The Doctor, Cobra Commander (disfigured head), and a few Storm Shadows in various stages of a$$ whooping.

@ hrothgars - I didn't see that Mad Love 2-pack anywhere. Sorry mate. But you might still want to check out the Super Target and TRU at Algonquin for their decent stock.
