What's a fair price to pay for Mandarin?

CLASSIFIED · 09-12-2011, 02:55 PM

I went into a Tuesday Mornings one time, it smelled kinda funny.

They had some GI Joe vehicles that never made it into major retailers.

I didn't buy them because I already paid too much for a set I bought off ebay.

Kind of like what happened with the Mandarin.

Not even close. More like a Ross or TJ Maxx, but with more home and toy items and less clothes.

Yeah that is what I was about to say. Not sure where Family Dollar came from lol

bmorr · 09-12-2011, 04:27 PM

it just sounded like a store that is really cheap, like family dollar. haha they dont even sell any thing there for a dollar. Its above a dollar tree but below a big lots.

edit: so i found their website and theres apparently three that are over 40 mins away. huh....I might have to check out the one near boston then

I checked Tuesday Morning today and no Mandarins, but I did see Advanced Armor and Guardsman, which are the first two IM2 figures I've seen at any discount stores. I'll have to try and get to the other one that's near me soon...

felks22us · 09-12-2011, 05:10 PM

I just order the whole wave on BBTS. for the lasted IM2 wave . its the only way to get Mandarin and the other 3 hard to find . Its so nuts that wally would still carry IM2 wave and not the latest wave ... 4 pegs full of the older wave but no new wave . they should clearance those 4 pegs and bring back MU . come on . Its smart money . If i say so.

Robogeek28 · 09-12-2011, 05:25 PM

I preordered the wave at BBTS as well. I already have Whiplash, but if getting that whole wave is my only means of securing a Mandarin so be it.

Tuesday Morning
They are not as bad as dollar stores.
That is where I found Ultimate Iron Man & comic Whiplash for $5.99 each.
I posted in the Iron Man thread about them. http://www.toyark.com/iron-man-2-man...e-64882-page2/
Will trade for a Sif!

felks22us · 09-12-2011, 07:28 PM

man I believe Sif will be that White Buffalo I keep on talking about . man that will be a hard hunt to find

quinten182 · 09-13-2011, 08:12 AM

All these weird store names! I guess I should go check buffalo wild wings for a mandarin figure at this point!

I don't believe you will find him there but you will find delicious chicken and a great deal on their $.50 boneless wing nights

Did you just quote yourself, and agree with yourself?

quinten182 · 09-13-2011, 02:19 PM

Those 4 figures for $50 was the best deal ever. They were only 44.99 when I picked them up though long ago. So worth it.

No, I was agreeing with bmorr about Tuesday Morning sounding like Family Dollar because they both smell funny.

KingLouie731 · 09-14-2011, 06:47 PM

semi random question: aren't we to expect the Mandarin for the villain in the 3rd Iron man movie? They hinted at the 10 rings in the first one and while it was a terror cell I think they could easily incorporate that into the set up for Mandy. With that reasoning in mind couldn't we just expect another Mandarin figure then?

This is Hasbro, they never do what you expect them to.

Amalberga81 · 09-14-2011, 09:08 PM

i think from BBTS is very best price, if you buy a set, you dont have to pay like 20-30 just for 1pcs of mandarin
but my opinion for this, because its very hard for me to get, i can face it for the price $30 ++ (i already buy it last month frm BBTS for a sets and thats is very good figure buddy)
