No need for any more drones for me. I picked mine up on ebay months ago. Probably would have done the same for Whiplash if I hadn't run across one at CVS.

Unless I'm forgetting something the only things left from the line that I want are Black Widow (yay, yet another three pack I'll be buying for just one of the thee figures), the new concept or whatever they're calling the non movie drone, and the mythical not actually coming out as far as I know final battle Armored Whiplash.

While I'd like Black Widow and the movie Armored Whiplash, I really want the Mandarin figure that is so hard to find right now. The rest of the figs in that wave are pretty sweet - expect Mandarin is no different.

I've only been buying from the movie line. So far the only comic figure I've even considered getting is the Arctic Armor and even then only if I see it at retail and like the color enough in person. Same would go for others like comic Whiplash and Mandarin, but considering all the stores around here have ever stocked past the initial release stuff is the Hulkbuster wave.

I'd get a second Target three pack to get a second one of the drone since I have two of the drone from the TRU Fury 4 pack, but then I'd have to get another of each of the 2 single card drones to go with them and I probably won't see those until they start showing up at Marshell's/TJmaxx 6 months or a year from now.

It's like what I have been saying, when figures (like wave 4 comic) start showing up in Alaska and no where else, or worse Canada, it's a sure sign that the particular line died and/or the distrubtion centers have given up.

In other words, just like civilization and culture, toy lines go to Alaska to die.

My closest Walmart only had a ton of IM2 Movie Iron Man figures at the red sticker $3.00 price. I don't see them putting the Mandarin wave on pegs at this point since its not Hasbro's fault that the stores only wanted to over order the same cases that only offered one character. I saw Comic Wave 3 two times at one Walmart back here in September and that was supposed to be released in July.

It seems its a done deal 4 now unless other Targets in my area choose to carry it on throughout to the Armored Avenger 2011 toyline. I got a feeling that TJMaxx will start getting them in by February in droves....

I got two target 3 packs for $4.98 about a month ago, when I scanned them at the scanner it rang up as $0.00 but then some target guy came and said the lowest it went before $0 was 4.98 so that's what they gave them to me for, so keep holding out for $5!

When I worked there, Our inventory system would place some really expensive stuff down 95% like lamps, stereos, end tables and pictures and when I would question it, my supervisor would tell me if that is the price then thats what the customer pays. If it was in system for too long and never got sold I think its something that automatically happens.

Besides that, good haul on that, all of the Targets around me have zero IM2 3.75" figures somehow.

I worked there during grad school. That's a product that should have been pulled and sent to Goodwill or destroyed. They have zeroed it out. If it does not get removed and is scanned it will show two prices on the PDA's used by the floor staff - $0.00 and whatever the last clearance price was. Target is supposed to sell it to you for the last clearance price (so your store got it right). Some less then helpful cashiers just will not sell it to you - they only get a message that the price can't be found or it isn't in the system. If you ever get that and you want a product make the cashier call a manager b/c you probably are going to get that cheap 95%-75% off price.

This line was great in the beginning but the hype has dissipated. I'm going to solely concentrate on comic version figures of the Thor and Cap line. I think I learned a valuable lesson to the IM2 line. :)

They haven't had any IM2 figures since The end of November. They didn't even bother to restock right before Christmas which was really weird for a film that was a summer blockbuster. I think if anything they are making room for the 6" IM Armored Avengers line coming this Spring but as far as getting more 3.75" figures its a mystery and most unlikely at this point when they need to clear out 2010 inventory.

Hopefully those Tron: legacy toys get clearanced out soon too. At $10 and $15 a figure they aren't moving at all.

Jmacq1
01-11-2011, 08:58 AM
Actually the 3.75" Tron stuff is moving pretty well in my neck of the woods, has been ever since the movie came out. The -rest- of the stuff is pretty much peg/shelfwarming, but the figures and the "modern" light cycles (and light runner) do all right. Flynn's light cycle definitely shelfwarms, though.

Iron Man 2 stuff is scarce at Target, but plentiful at Wal-Marts and TRUs, and none of the retailers look to be reducing the shelf space for IM2 much. The scarcity of product on shelves is likely a by-product of stores doing inventories and post-Christmas resets.

Hasbro or the stores, I don't really care who's fault it is. I've been figure collecting for years and I'm used to having to work a bit to find that one really popular figure from a wave. I was OK with that. Nothing wrong with having to put a little work into the collection. Its nothing like that now though. Distribution is so messed up for most lines there's no way to keep a collection going without over paying for stuff online.

I want to know if anyone that works at TJ Maxx has a way of knowing whats coming to their store pretty soon.

I dunno..there arent any waves that werent released other than the movie star 3 pack. If anything we might see that, but I wouldnt be surprised if a lot of the stuff gets taken back by Hasbro ( the little thats still on the shelf) and repackaged with the new card art.

Not that I know of, just the 50 million various Iron Man armors fighting each other in some remake of the Armor Wars storyline.
