Ok so I checked the site last night at like 10 and it said no stock anywhere except Bidd. I check it before I head to bed, same thing. I get up at 7 and check it and it says Topsham is available. I get cleaned up and out the door, I hit a little traffic but get to the store at just after 8. Get to the isle and the shelf for them is empty, but the grey dot is still on the label. I wander around looking for help then I see everyone is in a meeting, I kind of hover then I get some help. I told him there were none on the shelf and the dot was up but the website said they had it. He checks the stock at a register and it said 2, he checks with the back room stock guy who was standing at the meeting and he checks his gun and it says none available. So I left, annoyed as hell, but they had a bat and 2 snow serpents so I took one each to at least have something.

No Topsham is a sham I even called back later today to see if they magically had them in stock like Biddeford did yesterday, no dice.

The upcoming UBP looks awesome. I hate that the Star Wars Sarlaac one comes out around the same time because I want both.
I have a Mobat, I think it was released in 1998, though it's incomplete. The Mobat is part of the reason I want the set so I can have a second one. The Red H.I.S.S. looks awesome in it and if I get the set I might just buy the Crimson Guard set to put on it. I think one of the best parts of the whole set is the packaging they do with the UBPs, they are so easy to reuse for dioramas. I'm going to have to clear some space on a shelf to put it up with a battle going on inside of it like I did with the Endor UBP. I hope they will do more UBPs, and with the way they sell I think they will. It'd be a good way to get some of the smaller vehicles out like the watch tower and Cobra Bunker. I think they're finally figuring out how to do it with the $20 Battlepacks, at least for Star Wars as they look much deeper. Yesterday I got my sister's camera and finally got pictures of my collection taken. If you guys are interested in seeing it just check out my albums. I got my G.I. Joe collection uploaded, and a portion of my Star Wars collection. I have way too many Star Wars toys to take pictures of them.

I got a Rattler yesterday in a trade over on Fwoosh for 2 marvel figures I found. Today looks like Augusta and Topsham have them listed in stock. I called over to Augusta to check and they have 2, had them reserve the conquest for me. Yay.

Congrats on getting one, Fingers.
The Auburn Wal-Mart has new revision figures in. They had a v30 Snake Eyes, a Crimson Guard, and Spirit Iron-Knife. Auburn Mall KB Toys as normal didn't have anything beyond it's 3 troopers and Serpentor. I didn't get to K-Mart though.

Falmouth WM had those revisions in as well. I get the x-30 home and find the rear landing gear is broken off, both pegs sheared off where the screws hold them in. Im trying to fix it since they have been so hard to come by I dont know If Ill be able to find a replacement.
