I don't know where you'd be able to find SDCC exclusives, as I've never been there after SDCC. You might wanna check the neat booth though. They still have some compound hulks, and those were exclusives, I think, so there's some chance they get exclusives.

If you're into Joes, the guy with the disorganized booth had a whole deep bin full of joes. I don't collect, so I don't know if they were anything special.

Let me know if you find anything good! Good luck!

Oh, awesome! Thanks for the much needed info!

Last year, the neater booth had an okay portion of 2011 SDCC stuff like the ML Thor, MOTUC Queen Marlena and the G.I. Joe stuff I was talkin' about earlier. So I'm hoping that he/they got this year's stuff in.

Anything in particular that you're looking for? I don't think I'd be able to pick anything up though (wish I could

), 'cause I'll definitely be broke as heck after....

Best I could do for you is take some pics or something.

When was this? And ouch, I'd pay no more than $50-ish for that set. I have to make this trip count since I only go there about twice a year. So if he hasn't gotten them in by the time I go, I'm screwed.

SquirtleSquad7 · 07-18-2012, 03:47 PM

Nah, I only live like 10 minutes away from the flea, so I go when I can, plus, none of the exclusives are especially interesting to me. Thanks though. :]
Living in CT, going there once is really a hit or miss then, I hope you find what you're looking for.

And, last time I looked, MOE was going for like 55 on Amazon, so there's another option for you guys looking.

I might end up going to the Grafton one on Sunday.

Also. Sightings. I saw a fresh restock for the first time in a year at the Bellingham Toysrus. Bought a Gray Hulk I always skipped on since he first appeared. My LCS had that sick new Mr. Freeze for 30 bucks.

Happt Birthday.

tlasjr · 07-19-2012, 08:44 PM

TRU in peabody had a few TMNT figures.

MegaPrime33 · 07-20-2012, 11:51 AM

Anybody see the TMNT Classic figs?

bmorr · 07-20-2012, 05:28 PM

the attleboro tru had a ton of them last week. im going there tommorrow so ill take another look to see whats left.

SquirtleSquad7 · 07-20-2012, 06:18 PM

Did they have the regular toyline turtles in Attleboro? That's my go-to TRU in terms of distance.

MegaPrime33 · 07-21-2012, 04:42 AM

Oh good so they are in our area. I'll check my local soon. Are they TRU exclusive?

SquirtleSquad7 · 07-21-2012, 12:49 PM

My girlfriend just got me tickets for Rhode Island comic con for an early birthday present before tomorrow

Anyone ever been?

bmorr · 07-21-2012, 04:17 PM

theres a ri comic con? since when?

SquirtleSquad7 · 07-21-2012, 06:11 PM

It's actually the first one!

I'm super pumped, Chewbacca's actor is going to be there, and I'm mostly excited to try to meet Jason David Frank, who's going to be attending.

It's at the Rhode Island Convention Center.

SquirtleSquad7 · 07-21-2012, 06:34 PM

Here's the website if you're interested! I'm pumped.

Rhode Island Comic Con

tlasjr · 07-21-2012, 08:26 PM

Wow. I usually go to Framingham and meet celebs there but I'm kinda geked about this. Strabuck, Apollo and Buck Rogers?

Question, if the GL series from DC Collectibles is convention only does this count as one of the conventions?

SquirtleSquad7 · 07-21-2012, 08:34 PM

I'm really not sure. E-mail them and ask? There isn't much info out about this because it's the first con.

bmorr · 07-22-2012, 06:09 AM

shit i kinda wanna go now. Its easier for me to drive to providence than in to boston. I smell an Arker Meetup!

oh and wish me luck at the grafton flea market. me and the old man are gonna try it out today.

Tarooster · 07-22-2012, 06:10 AM

Good to know Bellingham finally restocked, that store never had any MU period. At this point I'm not really hunting for much until the new waves hit. There's some figures I still need but I'll never get them at retail unless they pop up in a revision.

bmorr · 07-22-2012, 06:16 AM

yeah i went to attleboro and guess what! jack shit! their turtles were wiped out of course. n osign of restocking of anything at any store I went to...

SquirtleSquad7 · 07-22-2012, 06:27 AM

I'm thinking of heading to a TRU sometime next weekend, hopefully they'll at least have turtles.

Good luck flea hunting. I'd like to go today, but I'm not sure if it'll happen.

Tarooster · 07-22-2012, 06:40 AM

TRU sucks for MU around here bad, and I'd doubt Attleboro will get those new 2 packs since they haveso many first class packs still. When the new waves hit I wouldn't even bother with TRU unless I couldn't find them at Wally or target where they're cheaper and always better stocked.

SquirtleSquad7 · 07-22-2012, 06:47 AM

I actually still want a first class pack.. So that'll work out for me! lol

I didn't think they'd let me because it'd be a weird way to spend my birthday, but I'm heading to the Raynham flea market today. I'll let you guys know if I find anything of interest! Hopefully none of you will beat me to the good stuff this time! :P

SquirtleSquad7 · 07-22-2012, 12:44 PM

If anyone's looking for a translucent iron spider, there's one at Raynham Walmart. Also a Havok, steve rogers, absorbing man, and union jack. I picked up an iron patriot and Steve Rogers, just to have.

SquirtleSquad7 · 07-23-2012, 11:29 AM

Does anyone know a TRU, walmart, target or something that has movie masters catwoman? I went to get the only one I ever saw at my mall's FYE after watching it on friday, and it was gone. I'm sad. lol

bmorr · 07-25-2012, 10:15 AM

bellingham toysrus has 2 helicarriers.
