The first few years up here I hardly ever saw anything "good" except we got those 3.75" Shockers. Wholes waves didn't ship up here and hardly ever anything past wave 1 of limited lines. The past year or so has been pretty darn with being able to easily find some figures that others say they never see. Karma perhaps?

Those new Godzilla toys hit my Toys R Us (finally). They look... decent, but definitely too expensive. Though I am tempted by that "atomic roar" one where the plume of blue flame pops out of his mouth when you tilt him forward. I mean, that's just a good, fun toy right there! :D

Oh wow, I had forgotten about the Alfred figure from Dark Knight Movie Masters line !!! I spotted a handful of those right when the Movie Masters began hitting stores around here, but once the movie opened, all of those disappeared, and I never saw another. I was lucky enough to find the Selina Kyle variant, but I only saw one JGL "Robin" (lol) figure, and only one Ducard figure (and that was at Best Buy, around the holidays, of all places/times :p ).
I've always wondered if those Movie Masters were hard to find, or if my area just got shorted on the later waves.

From my experience, most of the retailers around me got a glut of wave one that sat on the pegs and kept the later waves from being ordered until it was too late to make much of a difference. So the later waves ended up being scarce by default.

I'm just glad I didn't collect them and have to worry about it.

In other news, I recently passed on the new YotS redecos of Supreme Starscream and MP-10 at TRU over the weekend. I'm kind of regretting the second one since I don't currently own any version of MP-10, but I would prefer a re-release of the first version instead of this redeco (if at all).

There were a few Marvel Legends at TJ Maxx, Arnim Zola wave I think, they were around $10.

Local Walmart. I might get an RVD if I see it for cheaper. I doubt current kids remember who he is. He was last relevant to them back in 2006-ish but he'll always be "The Whole F'n Show" to me. *blows whistle like Bill Alfonso*

And then this week, I saw Marvel Legends at ROSS, BAF Terrax wave. I was tempted to get Hope and Ghost Rider but they aren't my scale. Oh, they were only $6.99 too.

I need to keep checking the Ross in my area! I'd love to finish Terrax, but I just couldn't bring myself to pay $15 for so many of the figures in that wave.

WOW...I HATE THE NEW FLICKR!!!!

Played "catch and release" with another Darth Plagueis tonight at another Walgreens. I still can't believe that this is the third Plagueis I've found, while I've only seen a single Mara Jade :(

cidman911, That is a nice selection from your TRU, I wish the local one here had the Pac Rim figures, and more of the Star Wars Black...

Local Ross on my way to work.

Wish my Ross in my area were that well stocked! I checked some over the weekend and TJ Maxx, pretty barren. Only saw like 1 ML on the peg at both TJ's that I checked, they must have been bought up already ugh.
Man that must be a well stocked TRU!

If anyone needs something I'd be happy to help.

Just pay price, tax and shipping. I can provide receipts for everything...just don't flake on me. There's plenty of post offices on my way to work.

I'm crying when I see all your ROSS pics, cause I know that when I'll be in the US next month there won't be anything left... :(

I wish we had a ross in ct but nada. closest one is in jersey...
would love to get my son those mega blok power ranger and halo sets as well as the joes...

Hey cidman, any Marvel Legends at your Ross? I could use some help with those. LA is too crowded with scalpers and resellers.

I'll check what they have tomorrow. I see them often there's a Ross in my area nobody goes to because its a bad area of town.

Like I said, I can help you get the stuff and ship it just Paypal me what I spent in total before I ship.

If you see ML Viper and Madam Masque that would be great if you could help me get them. Thanks!

can you get me a list of what they have for mega bloks halo and power rangers with prices? I need to have an idea of how much it would be or what he needs/wants...

Not much at Ross today.

Saw the new animal set for all the Minecraft people out there.

Also saw Venom and Falcon Marvel Mashers at a few Targets

I think it is great that Venom's tongue is an accessory :-)
All the way in the bottom of the package.

And have been seeing a lot of TF Voyagers of Whirl, Rhinox, and Double Dealer showing up at TRU. But still cheaper at HTS.

http://i1058.photobucket.com/albums/...ps9327e2ed.jpg

That's not even with an HTS code as well! Those are going to shelf warm like crazy I'm betting...making the next voyagers even later..what a domino effect that is. Also who here even buys the hero smashers? They look cool and all, def for kids but even still I'm not seeing these fly off the pegs.

I've never seen Neca at retail lately, no pacific rim or anything sucks.
