and the restocking paper that tell the employees where to put certain toy brands on the peg, hasnt been updated in a month(its dated 1/14/08)
I even looked around the other toy isles to see if some collector/scalper hid a single/comic pack, no where in sight.
at least they have no problem restocking Transformer movie toys.

those "paper" don't do jack shizzle. they don't even tell you if they have it on stock or not.
it's "outdated" coz the layout of the section doesn't any changes, unless there's a new item like a new toy line that will be introduced. then that's the time to update those layout, meaning moving this and that, and update the stuff.
best way to check if your target or wal-mart or tru, is to ask (if you can) an associate to look it up in their system, if they have it or not, or even when they'll have.... if they want to tell you. now the most challenging part is to get an associate to actually do that for you. meaning if he or she is willing to do so.... if all else fail tie em up. LOL!!!!

Honestly I think they are waiting for March to hit so they can restock the shelves.

I have been finding alot of figures at k mart lately. Target would be second and wal mart would be third. Even though tru has finally got figures in now, i have never bought any from them... |

In the last few weeks, they finally got wave 3 comic packs and wave 4 singles and nothing new since. Target was good for wave 5, but as with WM, it's been wave 4 singles and wave 3 comic packs, although nothing new the past 2 weeks. 1 KM, has a good stock of wave 3 revision wave, but the other 2 KM's are worthless. |
