The "Look At What I Just Got!" Thread

megajonzero · 09-04-2012, 10:17 PM

Thanks, I got lucky, wasn't planning on stopping at toysrus but my gf said we should and that's where I found Kang She hulk and punisher. There was no Scarlet Witch or Spiderman and the ones I bought weren't coming up in the system. They made us wait even though I told them it was 9.99 like all of the other MUs but the manager(I think) kept ignoring it saying well its not coming up on file so she had
to keep searching her computers for it magically appear. After 10 minutes of nothing but laziness and attitude she decided to go look for them in the aisles and she couldn't even do that right. My gf found a Magneto for her and told her to just scan it 3 times because they are the same price. The lady was trying to imply she wasn't going to sell them to us so we said that other figures from the same wave were sold already. She was like oh no it doesn't work that way, they don't always come in at the same time. Bullshit! They come in a case not individually shipped haha. Either way we got them but wow was it annoying.

Sorry for the long rant but I hate how managers in stores try to take advantage or think that i don't know what I'm talking about because I look young.

How much is that Thundercracker?

Recycled Parts · 09-05-2012, 02:23 PM

Just managed to pick up a Thundercracker at the Times Sq TRU in NYC for $76 with tax (8.875% in NYC). Not sure what the policy had been in previous days, but as of today, there was a limit of 1 per customer. As of 1:15 p.m., there were no more Thundercrackers left there. These are getting mighty hard to find.

Are these exclusives or something?

I think they have a TRU sticker on them.

Ah, good eye. So why would they limit it one to a customer? Never seen TRU do that before.

Probably because scalpers are buying most of them up. It's going for $120 on Ebay right now.

That has never stopped TRU before, they usually don't care.

Should of got one when I saw them last week. I could of utilized that snazzy lay-a-way they keep promoting and gone back when I got paid. I was on my MU grind that week. Oh well, I'm sure I'll find him, Grimlock and Rodimus were not a problem for me.

M3T4L V1KING · 09-05-2012, 05:52 PM

Why wasn't I told there was going to be a Masterpiece Thundercracker!?

Any difference between him and Skywarp or Starscream? I'd imagine Starscream comes with more swag.

Now she is the master...just watch out for the inevitible lightsaber duel- you'll totally lose.

FancyPants · 09-05-2012, 06:56 PM

Shout outs to Lord Marvel for red hulk

DogFashionDisco · 09-05-2012, 07:50 PM

I saw both of them along with Penguin the other day - they all look quite nice in person.

I'm hoping you weren't implying that you were pissed at me. It was 8 days between the time I posted about what was at that walmart and when you actually went there. If you were expecting that some of the newest MU figures to still be there after all that time then you're just silly.

Nah no way man. Think of it this way, you told me about the place. My wife found my punisher. The trip was worth it on that alone
