Well I just got back from the mild madness (Not many sales at all) Found about 3 pegs worth of wave 2 and 3 at Target (Got me a fixed crotch Beachhead!)

and just to annoy a few people I found out something interesting to me at least. There were 2 Zartans with the newest production code 72882, both had the color change logo on them!

I can feel everyone's headaches coming on now ;)

I just got back from target while in VA - found a whole mess of wave 2 and 3. I wasn't the first one there but plenty was left. I didn't see any Zartans, but I was able to get a trooper, a red ninja, and a retooled Beach Head.

I got lucky at target in VA as well. Found 3 flints, 7 troopers and picked up some others as well.

Well I snagged myself a Sgma six edition R.O.C.C. from the local ROSS dept. store for $9.99!! Wal-mart I picked up some transformers 2 packs for my son, as well as some old sigma six peg warmer dukes (power suit, parachute and attack quad all on clearance for $5.00!!!! I hit big Lots and picked up a few World peacekeepers for my son (a humvee, the A-10, and the bridge). For myself I picked up another set of wave 2&3 from wal-mart and I shamelessly ad matched them for 2.00 (I'm so ashamed but my local paper had Valor Vs. Venom figures listed at the Dollar General for 2.00 so Wal-Mart ad matched without a second thought, ut I cleaned out the entire assortment so they have to reorder now!!!!! (the things I do for low prices!

Damn, I wish I didn't have to work today. I'd be out there on the retail battlefield trying to find any Joes.

My Wal*Mart doesn't even have pegs for the 25th Anniversary figures so I doubt I would find any there.

KBToys have treated me well though.

i went out today however at a civil hour and stopped at all the usual places in germantown, gaithersburg, md (target, k mart, walmart, toyrus) and found gobs of legion packs and maybe 4 carded ninjas total:( collecting these in maryland has been an enormous pain in the ass.

Compulsive Collector · 11-23-2007, 06:16 PM

I found some wave 2 and 3 figures at a couple of stores today, and bought a Cobra Commander and a Red Ninja to drop off with Toys For Tots. I was hoping to find a couple of Snake-Eyes figures to go with them, but you know what? I haven't seen one carded Snake-Eyes or Storm Shadow figure in several stops at TRU, KB Toys, Wal-Mart, or Target. Wasn't someone trying to convince me about oversaturation a couple of days ago? :p

If you want carded Snake-Eyes, just take a drive up to Northern VA. I went out today to see what, if anything, stores had put out. Mostly I found Snake-Eyes (and bought him to toss in the ToT bin, along with SS) though there were signs of Wave 2&3 at a Target (retooled Beachhead and Firefly, 1 each).
