LOL,we will have to rename him the "cub" jew.bucky is tiny

True maybe Namor then he's pretty big. I guess Bucky would be the Little Man to Cap's Apache, which really makes me want to see Zemo as the Jew Hunter.

I just had a theory I wonder about testing for anyone living in a place with multiple Targets, Walmarts, or TRUs that have pegwarmers just sitting around.

Here's the idea. What if you were to go to Target for example that had like 10 Gladiators, you were to buy all of them, then return them to another Target. Would the 1st Target now emptied of its MU pegwarmers be more likely to order more MUs? I mean, the POS should register as it finally being all sold out, right?

Just curious if this would at all be something worth trying out (assuming someone had the money to shell out for the original purchase).

I have heard of people doing this. Makes since that it would work. I have spent the last year thinking about doing this with the seven Gladiators at my WM. It's all they have had for a year and as long as the seven are sitting there it is apparently all they will have.

Yes, this does work, although most people are hesitant to do this, as you do have to buy all the product, and then wait for the refund. But if you buy all the product their system will reorder things, be careful thou as most will ,ost likely just get revision cases to fill the pegs

kylactus · 03-05-2013, 06:34 PM

or worse yet the space will probably be devoured by some other crappy shelf packing product.

JanSolo · 03-05-2013, 06:39 PM

I don't know how I feel about that Then you're guaranteeing one store will be lousy with peg warmers. Also it'd be pretty awkward returning 15 Gladiators 'It was my Birthday and everyone got me the same thing. Can you believe it?'. I'd be cooler with an over a period of time operation spreading them out while emptying one store's pegs to be hopefully refiled by something different. That would also suck if you did all that and it didn't work out.

True, I think it'd work reasonably in a place where there are alot of the store. I live in LA and the trip to work I pass about 6 Targets. Just thinking in theory if all those Gladiators and Falcons were at least consolidated, I might see some new product.

Then again, out here with scalpers, I'd still probably never see any. lol

Funny,because its the likes of you guys,the guys who were here when i first joined that inspired me to make an effort,and the payback for me is when you guys appreciate the pics i post.likewise with everyone else that contributes in the places we frequent i really appreciate the work and effort everyone else puts into their photo dios and collection shots.

Scythe · 03-08-2013, 06:11 AM
