That's pretty much the size of a rinky dink shack in the poorest of poorest neighborhoods here in Colorado. I just don't get how anyone can buy a house ever if even having a combined income of $100K a year can't get us a house. So now we're back to the drawing board on what we want to do because we've outgrown our current apartment, but there are no apartments big enough to allow me to have a full on figure room with the diorama plan.

Keep the faith. Housing markets heat up and crash all the time. If you can be in strong financial situation to take advantage when the market dips down, you might end up with something close to what you want. My place lost nearly 50% of its value 3 years after I purchased it. It took 15 years for the value to climb above what I paid. NOVA area house prices are beyond crazy as well.
Back to toys, saw Thor Love & Thunder at 2 Walmarts in the past week. Hopefully anyone who needs the figures will be able to find them. I see a few Dr. Strange figures still on the shelf at the Walmarts. No ML at local Targets. Plenty of other lines. Target is putting on clearance He-Man figures including their exclusive King Greyskull. He just came out recently like Dr Strange Defenders exclusive. Curious if they have clearance prices uploaded in their system right item setup process. Very odd to have a short shelf life. The buying team might be under pressure to increase inventory turns.
