I don't get it?!?
 

I've search this forums for any news on new MU and/or ML figures hitting the stores. So far I have not seen anything new on two TRGT stores nor two TRU stores in the greater Miami-Dade county, (I have not checked WM) and I mean nothing new as far as Star Wars, TF, Halo, the WWE/WWF figures, even DC!! A sh_t load of peg warmers from the Xmas season but that's it!
The trgt I work at placed a new display for some of the MU 17 figres, Iron Fist (white), DD (black/ the hand), spylocke, Storm (astonishing xmen), and Thor. This were a limited number of figures though.
Any one knows of anything?!?

Northern Palm Beach County is dead too, nothing new.

Same over here,.except for the WWE stuff, but my area went from Elite series 9 to.series 12.

all i've seen put out are the "new" star wars stuff with the new darth maul cardbacks. no new MU but a couple revision cases. prolly wont even see the psylocke wave in my area for a few months if at all.

Wave 17 never hit Florida- I know people in Orlando looking for them too and...nothing.

Maaaan...I sure hope that's not the case for wave 18!
Strange that no one hs that up for preorder yet.

I was just thinking the same thing. Totally dead up in Nor Cal, especially with regards to MU.

yeah, my buddy and i were just talking about that yesterday cuz we were thinking of splitting a case only... nothing's listed.

Here in SoCal, it's pretty damn barren. And I mean, there's not even any pegwarmers left.

Only means one thing guys...2012 IS the end of the world! aghhhhhhh!!!

Yeah, I've been tooting the horn for a while, but getting a bit worried here too. Hopefully we get an explanation at Toy Fair in a week?

only new shit i seen in 6 walmarts was star wars stuff, ben 10, armor of omens and a panthro with robot arms. bradenton/sarasota areas.

only time i saw wave 17 was at my local comics shop, which, thank god, i bought. Star Wars and Thundercats are the only new toys ive seen. Oh and I saw the new joe wave exactly once. Frankly it was smooth sailing all Fall, we had a wave out like every month. Now its back to the old shit, producing waves every four. Remember the Thanos wave fiasco? I didnt see any of that until later revision waves.

Well you can skip Wal Mart because I heard they suck.

theres usually a drout of new product between christmas and march. its why wave 1 of every Marvel Universe set comes out in december and wave 2 not till march.
The reasoning for this is because they come out full force during the holidays and now they are recooperating. After ToyFair this coming weekend, We'll have a ton of new Preorder information and more.

December may be the holiday season, but January is the Month of Returns and February is the Month of Inventory.

January is the month of doo doo.

Agreed. This drought is an annual occurence in all toy lines. Nothing to worry about. You'll see restocking and shelf resetting throughout this month. I'm already seeing it at my area Targets and TRU.

I saw the zombie viper wave at walgreens, passed as they were 10.99 as it was too high to army build. I saw one store with an iron first, AoT thor and Patriot. A week later Patriot is still there.
I think it will get better this week when the target sale ends. I think they are holding new material for the post sale period.

That being said I have serious concerns over how long some of these lines will last. I think it goes deeper this year than in years past.
Look at the numbers. The Avangers have no new charecters in their line up. They have 15 charecters and all of them have been covered previously. The last gi joe movie flooded stores. This time we know of a single case and major charecters are sdcc exclusives,

Saw ML over the weekend and snagged a few, but that's it only seen MU 17 at LCS and one Patriot during the holidays in LA.
I'm thinking end of Feb/March we'll see it up, in Asia of course :P

I've been hunting Prime's recently...and did a Better offer on Ebay. Here's some Scalper's response.
"thanks for cancelling your order for $35 cliffjumper and buying one for $45 where you are paying more postage!!! I ma glad I did not accept the cheap offer!"
I responded "sorry I don't support scalper's."
The one I bought was through an international seller is why it's more $$...rather pay a little more for the international side due cause of the higher shipping cost but cheaper fig than a scalper...

I love when people on eBay need to chime in with stupid comments/insults like that. Either accept it or decline it. Over the weekend I made an offer on a loose MU Sinister (offered $18 including shipping since that's what the cp will cost me and I already have Gambit) and the guy countered with a buck off his buy it now price and told me that's the best price I'm going to find--I bought one an hour later for $15 shipped. Im not sure why some people get so hurt over things like that.

Totally agree with you on that!!! It's like um ok...Had one accept my offer, but than put in the comment that the lowest they could go was 2 bucks more than my offer and said I'm getting free shipping. I was like uh ok:P?

Hahaha silly eBay people. I agree, just decline and move on. No need for comments of any kind. But I will be an asshole and buy all the FE Prime figures I see, if I see any to support my DC/Marve/Star Wars buying habits.

Thanks to my tip right:P Good luck trying to find them though...I'm pretty sure they stopped distributing the FE one's. Although if you do find one lucky you =)

I think I have only seen Arcee for the FE ones. Anything Transformers here is bare [unless it is movie...]

You want to know what I don't get? This bs in the pic below. Can you REALLY not afford to collect this? If so, you're in the wrong hobby. Nonetheless, at least they figure swapped the right people..
