12/2 found Marvel Universe She-Hulk and Kang at Target in Wake Forest, but didn't get...I'm going to just get MU that I do not have as ML unless it's severely different(like the white-suit Fantastic Four set was a must-get).

8 days of silence=maddening.
has anyone found the new Power Rangers Mega Force figures? there was absolutely NOTHING new at Wal-Mart in Wake Forest on Saturday. I had to haul my old tires home, so I couldn't stop at Target or Kohl's or whatever.

TRU in Cary has the PR Megaforce figures. They have Gosei Great Megazord, vehicles with headers, 6" figures, blaster, and robo morpher for the Robo Knight (Gosei Knight). Picked up Gosei Great, pretty cool even compared to the Japanese original just more cheaply made and smaller. Still haven't seen the Hot Wheels for Megaforce yet.

Thanks. I went to Kohl's and Target today and nothing.
I did get the Transformers Prime Zoids Blue Liger dude at Target, and if anyone is STILL looking, they have at least 3 of the TFP troop builder black car guy...name?

Oh, and my Target (WF) has plenty of new MU figures, She-Hulk, etc...but no need'ems(i have the 6" of them all)

Just came back from Walmart & TRU next to Triangle Town Center. TRU had the new Megaforce toys, but Walmart had the 2 motorcycles for the legs of the Gosei Ground Megazord. Read online that Walmart is supposed to also get the black lion zord and the 4" figures.

Falconhood · 12-12-2012, 03:57 AM

Thanks! I found all 5 rangers at Target, but no baddies, and no basic figures at the TRU, but they have the Megazord.
Vehicons are also now plentiful around the N.Raleigh area.

jetsandheels · 12-15-2012, 11:37 AM

I was at Brier Creek Target last weekend and they had 7 Vehicons on the pegs. I can't remember seeing that many in one place ever before.

Falconhood · 12-16-2012, 07:22 PM

If you are looking for MU Beta Ray Bill or She-Hulk, I saw them today at the Wake Forest Target.
If you are into Imaginext, I saw two new ones:
Knight and little Dragon at Target $7ish.
Dino-Riders Raptor at Wal-Mart $7ish.

mj3141x · 12-18-2012, 04:52 PM

Wow. Wedge Antilles at 5 Below for $4.

Falconhood · 12-19-2012, 03:46 AM

Went to TRU yesterday, and the aisles are getting bare.
I finally snagged a SPACE GHOST figure!
nothing really NEW that I could see, except LEGO stuff, the space bug series.
And the K-Mart is PACKED with Hobbit figures, they have their own cardboard-mod in the aisle before toys.

jetsandheels · 12-20-2012, 07:29 AM

Has anyone spotted the new Fall of Cybertron Voyagers? I'm referring to Soundwave and Soundblaster.

Falconhood · 12-20-2012, 05:56 PM

OMG...ROSS has the Voyager TF Prime figures for like $12 I think, and the deluxes for about $6...including VEHICONS! That's a slap in my face, but lucky for those who have held out. I just saw them today.
I saw Voyager Ultra Magnus, Deluxe ...almost EVERYTHING of the last wave! grrr....I paid $15 for that blue car and etc.
Well, All I bought there was a TERMINATOR Best Blox set..crappy blocks...I'm trying to build them right now, but they hurt my fingers since they don't go together easy.

nccollector · 12-21-2012, 06:00 PM

Finally found the Spider-Man Movie version Walmart exclusive 6" figure with the backpack and interchangable head at the Walmart in Morrisville.

Superquad7 · 12-22-2012, 02:32 AM

I actually bought a Rick Grimes figure and some of the Neca Terminator figures. Honestly, I have little clue what's going on outside of TFs.

Awesome! I've been looking for him, so I'm glad to know he is actually out.

He's easy to spot, because you can see his textured hair. That seperates him from the other figures on the pegs.

mj3141x · 12-24-2012, 12:43 PM

Not really a local sighting but I received the first two GI Joe Collectors Club subscription figures in the mail today.

Falconhood · 12-24-2012, 04:34 PM

I saw the Peter Parker Spider-Man at the Wal-Mart in GSO today.
Also the 4 different Transformers Playskool ENERGIZE figure 2-packs.

pacozord · 12-26-2012, 01:21 PM

Just saw the SHIELD Helicarrier for $44 at Walmart, Morrisville.

Falconhood · 12-27-2012, 05:31 AM

I've seen a few Batman TDK The Bat vehicle for 4" figures at Ross that I never saw before Dec 26th, for whatever reasons, priced at $16.99, then at Target I saw the same thing on clearance for $15.xx. It was tempting, except for the weird rubber-head Batman figure included, but I can just use the Hot Wheels $1 version I have instead. Just an FYI if you were looking.
Also, one of the Hero Factory figures, the green guy with red shield and dual sword, he's plentiful at the Ross in High Point for $8.99 and possibly all Ross stores.

Was the Marvel Select Venom the new "Flash Thompson" the one that is also part of the fearsome foes pack? Figures, I was there Friday afternoon and the 4 pack was not on sale yet.

nccollector · 01-02-2013, 10:18 AM

Okay, called first thing this morning to the Disney Store at Crabtree and they only had one of the Flash Thompson Venoms left, so i picked it up at lunch. Debated hard about getting the Fearsome Foursome set because of the price. If we didn't already have the Spiderman and Goblin figs I probably would have gotten it.....still feel like i should have gotten it. They do have one Lizard fig left.

The cashier told me they received the notice from disney store online that tuesday morning. dont really know when or what but basically if disneystore the online store are on sale then they will sale them also. They are just following what the online is doing. For what she told me although they are the same retail prices, the fearsome foes box set, captain america, thor and hawkeye are the one on sale. The unleashed hulk, lizard, movie spiderman and the pre extremis iron man are not on sale. And hoping will see more individual piece of the new flash venom.

I know sir, but to think for the new flash venom, lizard. A decent goblin. And old release spiderman if they dont have that its a good price rather than paying 90$. Although i passed it out also. Cant complain about almost half the price of the thor and cap cause i wont buy them in retail price.

Maybe we can wait for a month or two, and they will surely clearance there new selects. Cause there is like maybe 15 unleahed hulks, 15 spiderman movie version unmasked, 10 iron man, 2 lizard..

c2close · 01-02-2013, 04:00 PM

Try Suncoast at cary. Although there no disney exclusive there. Pretty sure they get stock of those new selects. Or the game stop for kids at the triangle town in capital boulevard they are just probably like open 2-3months. And they got marvel selects. And if you asked them they can preorder stuffa and be able to get stocks. Although last time i check they were all movie select hulk, lizard. Daredevil, cyclops, wolverine. Chitauri
