The "Attack on the PIT" 5-pack and the 3-packs seem to be easily found now too.
The Ross store next to that TRU had two of the older SRO sets - the Wild Bill one and the Arctic one - for $7.99 each. They also had a set of troops and a set of Crimson Guardsmen for $12.99 each. I was tempted to buy the CGs but then I saw how long their line was and it wasn't worth it.
Target in Burbank had nothing, and the TRU in Burbank was the same stuff clogging the racks - though I did find DVD sets 3 and 4 if people are still looking (and yes, Dusty had his web gear).
Target in Burbank had some of the newer Marvel Universe figs, too. The paint apps are pretty terrible. I did get Guardian, but the new Sub-Mariner just looked awful. Also - the price: $9.29 for a figure without accessories to speak of! And here I thought G.I. Joe prices were bad... in my travels I found more of the Secret Wars 2-packs also, and some - especially the Spider-Woman - also suffer from the bad paint affliction.
I agree. I want the green hulk head sculpt from the 2-pack to go with my red hulk (the original green and grey hulks are bad), but the cyclops paint job is T.E.R.R.I.B.L.E !
