IM2 WarMachine & Ultimate IM @ ROSS $4.99

BigHanksCustoms · 10-06-2011, 06:30 AM

Hey gang, not sure if this is the right place, or if it's even common knowledge or not but I have found those harder to find IM2 Comic series figures at Ross. Picked up War Machine with Rhodey's open face and Ultimate IM. On an earlier trip I picked up Comic series Whiplash. Can't beat 'em for $4.99! Great looking figures.

Happy huntin'-----BH

Welcome to the forum! Dont really need a thread for this as Mandarin's also been found at Ross and posted on other threads. Good finds nevertheless, im hoping to pick up Mandarin for 10 bucks or so if someone can pick me one up.

Thanks for the welcome! I've been here since the beginning but my email account got hacked so I had to make this one. Anywhoo I've seen Mandarin at Albertsons grocery stores a few times for $9.99. These I bought at Ross must be an international card-no bio on the back but tri lingual packaging. The Mandarins I've seen at Albertsons are US card with bios. Maybe that lead will pan out for you.

Same Ross? ..they "restocked?"

I found a Mandarin at Ross earlier in the week, but that was it. Just curious if stopping at that shit hole again would be worth it or not. I figured they must of had that wave out and Mandarin was all that was left. Maybe they have some more in the back.

No it was a different Ross. There's like 5-6 near me. I'm actually hitting one today I'll pick up any extras I see for board members.

ricemaster76 · 10-06-2011, 07:08 AM

How's it going Big Hank!!! I found an ultimate iron man @ ross yesterday also. It also had the tri lingual packing. I also found a war machine, or should i say, i found the packing with no war machine in it.

Do Boy · 10-06-2011, 07:16 AM

Nice find and welcome back. Yeah didn't really need a thread for this.

DarkestKnight · 10-06-2011, 09:16 AM

Nice pick-up! Wish I had one of these in my area.

Ok, good. I hated the 15 minutes of my life that I was in that store for.

RexLewis85 · 10-06-2011, 09:41 AM

The only one I'm really interested in is Comic Series Whiplash...something tells me I'll never find him though. Good finds though! It's awesome when Ross actually pays off for ya.

Tyjos Azari · 10-06-2011, 09:43 AM

Nice Pickup there!

DogFashionDisco · 10-06-2011, 09:54 AM

I wouldn't mind finding that War Machine, it has a decent head sculpt.

Poison Shadow · 10-06-2011, 10:15 AM

Awesome finds!

I definitely wouldn't mind getting that War Machine, a Mandarin, or a Comic Series Whiplash. Let me know if you find extras, please!

Do Boy · 10-06-2011, 10:22 AM

I just picked up an U Iron man at Ross

omega145 · 10-06-2011, 11:16 AM

Id highly suggest this War Machine, my favorite 3.75" War Machine so far.

Optimus Vader · 10-06-2011, 11:59 AM

That's the comic version with the two heads? ^^

Fortune · 10-06-2011, 12:14 PM

Darn it. I always pass on Ross when toy hunting.

I use to as well. But they were actually pics of this wave here and lots of sightings. Unlike the Giant Man box set where people were just saying they saw them and had no actual pics.

Yep, the same one posted right above this and the extra head can be used with the GI Joe 25th BATS.

Here's the War Machine I found at Ross at lunch:

Only two Ross' left to check, each one 30 minutes away in different directions.

is that the clear variant?

Peteparker · 10-06-2011, 01:21 PM

Ha! Or the Sue Storm variant!

RexLewis85 · 10-06-2011, 01:23 PM

Yowza...it must be pretty easy to steal for Ross, not that I'd ever do that. What's worse is the fact that the craptastic employess left that on the shelf.

Peteparker · 10-06-2011, 01:25 PM

I was a good Samaritan and gave it to customer service, while asking if they had more of course. I was hoping that they'd help a good Samaritan out, lol.
