[Lazer]

I will add though, that I don't rely on the internet anymore to buy my figures. When the Spiderman Classics series blew through the stores and I missed most of the og figures in early 2000's I did ebay a couple of them...for a markup of course (same goes for a few early Black Series that I still want).

But I find that patience is on my side. Example was this weekend.

My town has way more Wal Mart's than any town should have, none of them are all that good at stocking anything at launch that isn't Power Rangers or Ninja Turtles, so this was an unusually good weekend for finds.

The TMNT 2 Secret of the Ooze figures hit shelves, only one case per store mind you, and with it came some random Black Series and Marvel Legends appearances on the shelf.

We've been sitting on that last bulk wave of Kylo/Poe/Phasma/Guavian since April, I saw old Han Solo and a Flametrooper in a Wal Mart once but other that rare sighting our Wally Worlds just don't stock Star Wars figures much at all (Target and Wallgreens seem to be consistent though). And the Allfather BAF Marvel Legends wave has been on clearance for just as long.

I didn't plan to find anything, which is basic routine nowadays in the figure hunt, but the first Wal Mart I hit last Friday had just stocked the new Marvel Legends Giant Man series and they do in fact short pack Black Panther. There were doubles of every figure but only one Black Panther. And not to brag, the second Wal Mart had pallets of recently opened boxes so I checked the Star Wars figs and right on the outer pegs were a single ANH Luke, Asohka Tano, Jango Fett, and that ever sought after Flametrooper...No Kanan oddly enough.

Black Panther went to my nephew, that was his favorite character from Civil War, the Luke and Tano went on figure stands and I feel I can relax until Force Friday II...
