Precisely. While some people feasted on the Cobra Island exclusives, I only ever saw Beachhead and Roadblock all but one time apiece...in which I picked them up. Never again afterwards. I never even once ran into a trooper or Baroness, and I was checking multiple stores a day up to 3 times a week. Daily searches on Popfindr were fruitless and if their results were to believed...southern AZ Targets received a whopping total of four (TOTAL) spread out amongst 5 or 6 stores we have. I had no choice but to head to ebay for Baroness and said to hell with the trooper altogether.

Neca distribution has been equally as bad down here. I've gotten lucky and haven't had to resort to scalpers with that thank goodness, but my workplace puts me in multiple stores throughout the course of a day, so I'm able to hunt more easily for stuff than say the average collector who might only get out to hunt once a week...in which in that case are likely to be screwed.

My local Targets are now drowning with Storm and Old Man Logan sets, with DP and Magneto sets being a bit more scarce. Hopefully when this next go around of Joe exclusives drops, Target won't shit the bed with the order and have larger amounts like the Storm sets, and less like whatever stupidity they were doing before.

I would assume so...I found that box set at my local Gamestop yesterday...but have yet to see it anywhere else.
