Also between Saturday and Sunday, I picked up 10 of the 16 new Simpsons Lego Minifigs, with only one dupe so far. I got Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, Maggie, Nelson, Milhouse, Ralph, Itchy and Scratchy. The others should be fairly easy to pick out, as they all have tell-tale unique pieces.

Where'd you find the Simpsons mini figs? Walmart?

[Il Cattivo]

found falcon at target.

Target. I had also looked for them at TRU on Sunday, but the CSR said they had just sold out of them the day before.

Walmart took forever to get in the Lego Movie series and I think the same thing will happen with the Simpsons series. Eventually they will show up, but I'll have already completed my set by then.

Damn, I wish I had a Ross near me. That version of CC is the only one out of that wave I still need to pick up. Maybe a strategic stop at Marshall's is in order (the closest TJ Maxx by me was closed ).

Every time I see one of those, I have to combat the urge to impulse buy. That's such a nice-looking figure, taste my envy!

[cidman911]

We finally got some new stuff. (^_____^ )



I grabbed an extra XForce set if anyone wants to trade it for something. Saw a bunch of GOTG sets as well.

[Il Cattivo]

finally found thanos at retail. *ric flair voice* wooooo!

[Kernel]

Picked up darkseid and darth on Tuesday afternoon at Tuesday morning.

[Kernel]

This too.

[cidman911]

Darkseid is a great figure, it's just been pegwarming forever at my comic shop because they want like $27 plush tax on it...ridiculous.

[PROVOST]

Today's trade haul -

Same here. I've been tempted to get it a few times but just can't shell out for the overpricing.

^Nice stormtrooper and haul Provost!

They had like 8 Darkseids there. I thought about picking up one for my brother in law who is a big new 52 fan but I left them. I think he is on a MOTUC body and should be in scale with my 3.75" figs with how big they are making Darkseid in comics now. I'm always amazed at how much Mattel charges for their figures with shipping. If you guys want one I can pick them up at cost + shipping. Just PM me.

The final revision case has one Mysterio in it. Pretty good casepack for people didn't find the last few waves.

Supposedly Lego can't because Hasbro threatened to sue them. Hasbro claimed that the minifigs would be considered action figures if sold individually and Lego would then be violating Hasbro's licensing agreement with Lucasfilm.

I'm very curious to find out the source of this figure as well.

.....F U Hasbro!!! lol you know how much Lego could make off that shit if they could sell them tho! I know a couple of them I would buy off hand too lol

[salsa4datass]

yeah f u hasblow!!! my son would go crazy if they sold only the mini figures. the thing i don't get is that they are allowed to give them away as promotional figures but are not allowed to sell them...

[Goldengreg]

Safely arrived in Miami and after getting unlucky with several Rosses, I decided to go to toysrus and hit a nice score.
The Eaglehawk price dropped from 44$ to 18$ but it's not indicated anywhere; good thing I looked at hisstank forum before going !
The store lady also just refilled the marvel aisle in front of me, allowing me to score an Aurora! There was a rhino, cloak, dagger, colossus and Thanos left.
I also scored 4 of the fabled cryo tubes for 0.50 a piece. These will be very useful in a future diorama I'm sure
Now I have 8 days in Orlando to find an xforce set and a retaliation ninja jeep at Ross to feel totally satisfied

[Trivial Psychic]

Decided to try my luck today with Ross, and ended up scoring the MU X-force box set, and after what seemed like an agonizing wait, finally received my X-Force Deadpool Marvel Legends in the mail. (From an Ebay seller who not only took more than a week to ship, but then managed to get my address wrong on the package, which caused further delays. And packaged it horribly to boot. Thank goodness I didn't take out a mortgage on this one, and that I could care less about MOC...) Thank you to all of the people who contributed to my Deadpool knock off thread, which helped steer me in the right direction!

LEGO is giving away this minifig when you purchase $75.00 worth of Star Wars LEGO sets during their May 4th promo. It will go fast so if you want one, you better order them as soon as the sale starts. They normally do not distribute individual SW figs like this.
