Ooh could you snag me a Shockwave next time you go and see him? He's the only one that I really want because he looks like his G1 counterpart.

Dont yell at me guys, but even at 7 bucks a piece I passed on a fresh case of gi joe retaliation figs at Toysrus. They had every character(plus both black and blue CC's) but no zartan. I did see the new turtles figs and more FOC toys. I hate being on a budget lol(my figure money is all going towards future MU). The only thing i bought today was a vintage carded Darth Maul cause you guys recommended him a while back.

D00MTR0N · 07-13-2012, 12:23 PM

passed on all of wave 1 FOC minus shockwave,he is awesome and looks very G1,worth the price for him.

D00MTR0N · 07-15-2012, 06:23 PM

tons of old TF's prime stuff.

Iceman · 07-15-2012, 07:30 PM

Passed on a Prime Soundwave.

trebleshot · 07-17-2012, 06:51 AM

Passed on a $15 FOC Jazz, but am really regretting it now. I figured I'd eventually get him later at Walmart or Target for less.

Of course, if I had even seen an FOC Shockwave....

bmorr · 07-17-2012, 07:06 AM

Dont worry. Walmart will overorder on TF's like usual. the only one im worried about is Shockwave, as he would be more collectible to CHUG collectors.

That's what I'm hoping.

...and that's what has me anxious. Especially since he's one-per-case on top of that.

Optimus Vader · 07-20-2012, 12:21 PM

I'm one of the Classics collectors you guys are talking about. I bought one and left the other.

Passed on Avengers Hawkeye, ML Drax, and Avengers 6 inch figures. Also passed on ML Fantomex which hurt me greatly. Sadly I was in a Batman frame of mind(fresh off watching TDKR), and couldn't afford to get ole Fanty with the Batman swag I bought.

Forgot to mention this in my earlier post...should I be regretting the fact that I didn't buy the Captain America/Klaw MU comic pack?

bmorr · 07-21-2012, 04:19 PM

i ended up buying klaw from a chinese seller to avoid buying another cap.

kdawg01970 · 07-21-2012, 06:54 PM

Passed on 2 shockwaves today only because i forgot my wallet at home. Needless to say i stashed them so i could grab them in the morning. Fingers crossed!

Roxxstar · 07-21-2012, 10:46 PM

I passed on the X-Factor multi-pack, it was hard
Also had 6 Avengers super skrulls

Edit: sorry for the broke image link, works on my phone app....

Edit: Fixed

Edit:... Forgot, these are $45, had 5 of them at the Dublin, CA TRU

No worries. On the bright side, I was able to finally get Jazz at another TRU but he was the only FOC left. Both of my TRU's got hit hard for FOC and TMNT figures. Only Krang is left at either store.

Oh and passed on Movie Hawkeye and some Skrulls. Just not interested anymore, especially now that I have Prime and FOC to collect.

shortysben · 07-24-2012, 11:30 AM

Just saw and passed on FOC Shockwave...I thought about getting it and trading it to one of yous guys...

Also, picked up a MALGUS (dont collect star wars but figured I could trade it to someone here)...

drew2kew · 07-24-2012, 12:07 PM

Saw the Mega Blocks WoW single figs at TRU today. Pretty neat I thought. They were $8.99. Did not see any big sets yet.

drew2kew · 07-24-2012, 12:13 PM

Saw the FF Spidey/Dr Doom and Rhino/Spidey comic packs also. Passed on them. They were $19.99 each. Don't know what I was doing in TRU really....lol wait, I remember, I was looking to see if they had the new Kreon single transformers yet!

trebleshot · 07-25-2012, 05:57 AM

Passed on TFP Leader Bumblebee, a Bot Shots multi-pack (2 launchers, 4 bots) and a single Skrull at a Target. At another Target, I passed on a TFP Soundwave. Again.

Alchemist559 · 07-25-2012, 06:45 PM

Passed up all this stuff at Walmart, Because I already have it, Picked up a FF 3-Pack though.
