South-Central Texas, we usually see dry-spells at these grocery stores (HEB) but as of late I've been pretty lucky with 'em (this same store got the Space Venom wave back in September). I'm speculating that what happened here goes back to when the Absorbing Man wave was new because when that wave was new this grocery store didn't get it in going in favor of the Cap Red-Onslaught wave. So I'm figuring that maybe they did get it in and have just now all this time later actually decided to open it up. When I went to check the single toy aisle I saw the pegs were full and it was the entire case except for Gwen. I did a little bit of searching though and found the Gwen on the bottom shelf sort of hidden behind some other toys so naturally I gathered that some other person, clearly out of the kindness of their soul, had hidden it down there for me to find like an Easter-egg hunt.
This is far from the first time I've found a toy that some other person had apparently tried to hide. It just always seems like such an odd practice to me where somebody takes the effort to "hide" a figure they want to come back for later when they should realize that it's very possible for other people to find it. Especially at a local grocery store where you can have the store hold an item for you as long you return before closing.
