I'm honestly not a fan of the screaming head. Like the Weapon X version, it seems more like Logan is terribly bored. I do have the Patch head that came with the Riders figure, and I like how it looks with the black shirt of the Cowboy Logan.

I found Emma a while back...but have yet to run into her again since. Many of my Walgreens have dried up Legend wise...as I have not seen any new figures in stores since the Caliban wave dropped.

The only Captain Marvel figure from her movie wave that really wasn't good was the one in the jacket because the face sculpt looked more like Amy Poehler than Brie Larson. In terms of pegwarming, I mostly see Grey Gargoyle and Genis Veil. Though lately I've been seeing Starforce Carol pegwarming since Target seems to have found all the ones that were missing earlier in the year. I'd really appreciate it if they released a Starforce troop builder pack that had heads for Korath, At-Lass, and the blue viking looking guy to round out the entire Starforce team. Maybe even release an Accuser pack to cover Ronan and that other guy.

As for Black Widow... I rarely see her on shelves unless it's the comic version of her. Which is a shame because I wanted to get an IW Widow, remove the vest and pop on an Endgame head Quantum Realm 2-packs.

I can see your criticism with the eyes, but I've already found two angles that are very satisfying and see the potential for more. Most emotive heads are as one-note as their neutral counterparts, but I'll take any expressive noggin they send my way. Not only do I prefer even clumsy attempts at breathing life into these figures, but I consider these extra heads accessorized rewards for buying yet one more redeco - this helps me feel less dirty when I turn my eye away from the increasingly cavalier manner in which Hasbro throws repaints at us.

Hey check your Walmart’s! Some stores have already clearanced the 80th stuff, I saw Iron man Caps and Thor for $15 each and the Juggernaut Pack is $35. The korg And Ghost packs are $30 which ain’t terrible.

Damn I feel like that's got to be a mistake. It's barely been a month since they landed.

MeLikeJinx 09-09-2019 11:43 PM

IMO Walmart is always super YMMV though with their clearance... it is entirely up to the discretion of that particular store manager I think... unlike Target and Gamestop which all follow the same national/regional clearance schedule. Not that it would matter where I am at... all the 80th stuff except for the Ghost 2 pack and Hela 2 pack are gone... everywhere... Walmart, Target and Gamestop... all sold through in my area.

nice score, huge congratulations. Now I must get to walgreens this morning before work, and then after work again LOL.

Dr Kain 09-10-2019 06:40 AM

I haven't decided yet if I want to bother with the New Mutants sort of trio or not. They're not the costumes I prefer.

I thought the same but it can’t be. Only reason I checked mine Is because I saw online someone else’s store did the same. But 3/5 of my Walmart’s in my town have them on clearance for some damn reason. The worst part is I’m broke at the moment so I couldn’t pick shiiiit up haha

I can understand that. Do you have any particular desire to have a figure of any of them? Like for instance, I have some ideas for some team line ups I'd like to get set up and have had this in mind for several years. I have figures of 27 of the 28 figures in those line ups, having Moonstar will complete it, which is why I've been hankering to see her released so badly. Meanwhile I'd like a Karma figure, so I definitely do want 2 eventually. If I see a third I'll get it to complete Wolfsbane and a 4th for Magik, but I'm not actively going to trouble myself for more than 2.

Spyne98 09-10-2019 07:56 AM

The New Mutants 3 in one is hitting? Crap. I haven't found Emma yet! I need 3 of the New Mutants one. Not to mention the Transformers Exclusive Ratchet that they have. A Rite Aide by my apartment just turned into a Walgreens. I keep checking there but no luck. There's one close to the radio station I broadcast out of too, but they haven't gotten anything new in months. Ugh!

Still no Emma here either. I had a conversation with the assistant manager at the Walgreens I stopped at, she says that if a store is in a not so nice part of town, they're less likely to get the exclusive figures due to the rate of theft, not sure if that's all Walgreens or just this area

Captain Nash 09-10-2019 08:13 AM

Humorously I just got an email from Walgreens "Find everything you need". Not likely I thought, and of course they lied. :p

My area is pretty similar, only the MCU two packs remain. I was also a little surprised to see on Saturday that my local Walmart has sold almost all of the Binary Carols, I originally figured they'd gotten too many to move this swiftly.

I already got my main wants from the 80th line at full price with no regrets but if they're still on clearance this weekend I'd definitely pick up the Korg set for only $30, if not then I'm sure they'll drop to that price again by winter.

I agree. In "real life" (God, what am I even talking about) he could never retract those claws without destroying his hands and arms. It's cool they lock into his hands well. but Hasbro went overboard on the blade profile. Maybe we'll get a version that splits the diff.

Forgot to mention that the Retro X men wave is $11 as well. But the only 80th set I need is the Korg one as well. Don’t really need another Grandmaster(Ken Basically Gave me his) just want that Korg.

That's interesting. I wouldn't think I'm in bad areas. But I don't know what theft numbers are like in stores. Maybe I live around some scumbags. Who knows!

Boy Blunder 09-10-2019 09:52 AM

I think that might be just the area, because Walgreens exclusives (that aren't Medusa) have been harder to find out here, and I go to numerous stores in the county, all of which are in neighborhoods of varying "quality" in that regard.

One of the things that sucks about Walgreens is that they don't get "standard" cases the way other stores do. Sure, they do end up getting full waves a lot, but just as often, they'll get a case of eight random figures. I don't remember if this is also the case with their exclusives, though. (Been a long time since I talked to the woman in charge of ordering, since she moved from our store to one across the county).

Well the area I live in is pretty good but the neighborhood the nearest Walgreens is in is kinda sketchy

Captain Nash 09-10-2019 12:11 PM

I'm wondering too, in addition to "sketch factor", do the Walgreens sometimes alternate exclusive orders as of this past year? For instance, the nearest ones, had plenty of Iron Dooms, no Mystiques. Plenty of Magiks. They also had a handful of Silver Surfers and Mr. Fantastic, but no Things, though that last may just be due to the inherent popularity of the character.

I'm wondering the same now too. I remember one local one had like 12 Agent Venoms when he came out. But I never saw Punisher. Plenty of Invisible Women and Human Torches, but no Things of Mr. Fantastics. No Mystiques, but a ton of Magiks. It's almost like it skips some releases. I know I missed a few in there, just listing what I can remember off the top of my head.

I don't know about that but she confirmed that all the exclusives share skus

That could actually tie into then. They look at the sku and say "we have enough of [12345678] and we have sold this many and haven't needed to order since [date]". therefore, they end up inadvertently skipping figures because to their system, it's all the same figure.
