Saw the wave 2 asst. on the Monster High Gloom and Bloom Dolls at Target.

AH, the 2 packs. I have been seeing a lot of the single cards at TRU and Targets.

Oh wow, somehow, that Party Wagon completely slipped in under my radar!
I don't even remember seeing pics or anything of it from the TMNT panel at SDCC!
Is that how their van looks now in the new animated series (I'm waaaay behind on that show), or is Playmates just being really really cool and doing something to appeal to us older fans ?

I don't think the van was mentioned anywhere, and some of the figures that are featured on the back of the packaging of the Mystic Turtles wave (such as Napoleon Bonafrog and Atilla the Frog, check the TMNT thread as I recently posted pictures...) were not discussed either. Just like Hasbro as of late with the Marvel Legends waves on the horizon, it appears Playmates has some secrets up their sleeves as well.

As for the new van, I'm really not sure if that's what they're using in the cartoon. Truthfully, I've only seen two or three complete episodes (I hardly watch ANY television) so I wouldn't be able to give an honest answer. I prefer the look of the movie Party Wagon over this one honestly, but it is a nice piece of fan service if the vehicle isn't featured in the new cartoon.

[Bradsdadg]

I have not seen all of the cartoon episodes, but for the most part they use this vehicle. Unless it has changed in the newest epis

It belongs to April O'neils dad. They evacuated NYC in it after the Krang invasion. So far to my watching the four turtles have yet to convert the old VW van into the party wagon. The last episode I watched was the Croaking.

Too bad I'm not interested in Beast Hunters, these were heavily discounted at -60% in my Hypermarket... the boxes suffered much though...

[Phantomcrow]

Saw the Hulk Hogan Defining Moments figure at TRU and 5$ less than the 30$ at K-mart. I really want to get this at some point.



Also saw the McFarlane Walking Dead building sets at Wal mart. They had the separated Prison Tower and Fence sets that are exclusive to Wal Mart.

They've got these sweet ass star wars cars in the mainline that are the normal hotwheels price as opposed to those expensive ones. The card backs even look like the movie posters.

notice how Walmart separated the prison tower and the gates...smart move by them I say but when you add it all up you actually paying $10 more than going to TRU and getting it(at least until the price increase happen)> Might hafta add some more gates around my prison yet

Thought the same thing, buy a couple of the TRU set then just buy like 4-5 more of the fence at WM and you could make a killer display if you had the room. If it would not cost a fortune, I would get a bunch of the fence to go around my gijoe Kre-o Terrordrome.

Ran into Arkham Knight while hunting for Legends at Target yesterday. Hush is also in the line, but there weren't any on the pegs, so I'm unsure as to whether he is out yet.

[Phantomcrow]

Spotted the new wave of Pac Rim figures. I don't really want the damaged Gypsy but I would like the arm cannon since the figure comes with a replacement normal arm also behind the label.



Also saw a lot of Avangers AoU stuff at TRU

[decepticon_mark]

Looks like the Odin wave or at least some of it has begun to peg warm around these parts. Saw Iron Fist,Sentry,and multiple Hawkeyes on the pegs at the local Target.

[Frank Richards]

I stupidly deleted the pic before confirming that it had uploaded to Photobucket, but I saw a case of the ca. 2011 Pursuit of Cobra GI Joes at my local TRU today.
Not sure if someone found a case in the back of the store, or if Hasbro is clearing out their warehouses, but I was surprised to see those.
I only saw 2 Hawks, 2 Cobra Commanders, 2 Blowtorches, and most notably, 2 Jungle BATS. None of these are anything that you wouldn't see at your local CVS, with the exception on the Jungle BATS.
The BATS were tempting, but I left them for a bigger GI Joe fan (and hopefully not a scalper) to find.

Also, I know a lot of people have been looking for Sabine, so here's proof that she's showing up at Target. She was tempting, but I just couldn't bring myself to buy these 5 PoA figures. Here's hoping we see some better Rebels figures at Toy Fair this month.

Sabine...Nooooooo!

Gotta double down my efforts for her.

Thanks for the heads up on the Joes. Gotta start checking my local CVS now...

[Frank Richards]

Finding the Retro Entertainment Hot Wheels in my area can be very difficult at times, and this was the first time that I've seen so many of the rarer/in-demand ones in one location, but I still had to pass on The Homer and the Bond Lotus submarine.





Oddly enough, I've never even seen this many of the main line Homers out in the wild.

I have been seeing a lot of the Sabine SW figure in the last couple weeks at Targets also. She has not been going anywhere.

Finally saw the Odin wave of ML at a local Walmart. Also saw the DC multiverse sets with Clay face and Grundy at the same Walmart.

Glad to see that they finally got the color scheme on Kane's mask correct on that attire, Mattel has got it wrong every time they attempted that outfit until now. That definitely makes him a must get for me. The stats on the back of the packaging are laughable though...Kane is way bigger than 6'1" and 212 lbs.

Classic "Cain the Undertaker" is cool too. They really nailed the likeness down on him it seems. Too bad that they forgot his grey necktie. I have the Taker with the purple gloves and "phantom" mask...so this one is also on the list to track down.

Good spot dude. Glad to see that I'm not the only one into WWE on the boards!

[Phantomcrow]

The Kane and Undertaker were at TRU and 19.99$ They had a whole fresh case. I may pick up the Kane just cause it is old school. I still need to pick up a Hogan Defining Moments. I really would like to see Junk Yard Dog in stores and the new Doink the Clown. I'm really only into the guys I grew up with like the Sgt Slaughter I picked up recently. And I will want my Sting Crow when it comes out.

[Phantomcrow]

Saw the new Halo figures at Target.



Whole fresh case of 3.75 in Marvel at Target



The new TRU exclusive Monster High 2 pack



and new 3 pack
