Which TRU is that? The Brockton one is hit or miss but I did find the last few IM2 figs their and they currently have a decent MU selection. The Attleboro one is too popular and can get picked over quick but they are a bigger store and put out a lot more product. Those are the only 2 I got to. I have yet to see anything at a TRU Express I didn't already have in 2 years. I am extremely disappointed at the pre and post X-mas toy selection this year. MU 2 packs are none existent in a few stores around me. Why arn't the stores putting out these 2 packs?

Here's a new MU Shelf Pic.

Anyone have a spare Magneto head for sale?
I'm looking to make a custom of him on a better body, but not sure which one to use. I have the Captain Britain one from the 2-pack, it seems a tad massive, BUT it will eliminate paint rub. In a perfect world I'd use the Daredevil base from the 2-pack but he's impossible to find. So is the body from Cap Britain a good size for Magneto or too big?

That's probably true. Sunday is the day that Target always does new sales and what not...Ah well glad I have my new "gals" :P

Just back to my apartment after visiting my family for Christmas and had a couple of parcels waiting for me - Shocker and Comic Iron Monger from Canada and Frost Giant from the US. Awesome stuff.

Happy New Year to everyone on the Western side of the Pacific!

I used MU Sunfire. He's a med build, not too big, and mostly red. Swapped out his lower arms and legs to match it up. Only had to paint the chest.

bmorr · 12-31-2011, 10:45 AM

The picture of the Electro post on TRU though is the regular one.

wolverine2281 · 12-31-2011, 11:25 AM

TRU doesn't ever show the variants for their stock photos.

usagent27 · 12-31-2011, 11:53 AM

On that day, I learned that most St.Louis toy hunters are either poor, pathetic pieces of shit, pieces of shit, assholes, cunts, douchebags, or just generally useless.

You must be a really popular guy with that attitude. Thanks for generalizing the entire St. Louis toy collecting community based on one shitty experience. <3 DFD

Found Patriot and Thor at Target. They weren't in the system for whatever reason, management came over and gave the checker the price of....$4.99!

Also just ordered Electro from tru (thanks for the tip)

Anyone have a Shocker?

As usual nice haul.

Here's what I picked. I passed on the Cyclops though. But so happy that I finally found the Electro revision. Last Target that I visited as well on the way home. A great start to a New Year in hunting if I do say so myself :P

A great start to a New Year in hunting if I do say so myself :P Almost missed them too, they were a few pegs away and not with the other MU figures that Target had displayed. I did see the Marvel stand that Lord Marvel posted as well.
