Do you see what I see?

This was taken at my local Target in Alhambra, CA (Alhambra is South of Pasadena and East of Los Angeles. It's still technically Los Angeles County). Aside from the obvious lack of MU figures (all the pegs to the right of the MLs are supposed to be MU. I found a solitary Storm fig hiding behind some Amazing Spidey figs), there is a Wave 3 Neo Classic Armor Iron Man on the middle peg! There's also another one behind Steve. When I first saw this, I thought to myself "wtf? Wave 3 has hit retail already?" Then I took IM and Steve over to a scanner - both scanned as the same UPC. After some contemplation and a conversation with king1026, we came to the conclusion that someone probably bought a case or two and returned these to Target. Some scalper kept all the high demand figs and returned IM. I personally like that figure a lot. He's pretty bulky in comparison to Extremis IM and the paint job is pretty spot on. I guess they can't scalp them for much like the rest of the figs in that wave...

If anyone's wondering, the rest of the figs are: 1 Thor, a few Extremis IMs, 3 or 4 Klaw figs, a ton of Bucky Caps and 2 or 3 Drax's...
