Found 2 entire sets of the newest wave of MU (Skaar, Dr. Doom, Falcon, Dr. Strange, Scarlet Spider) at Christiana Target (along with 1 case of 12" Joes). Bought 1 each of Skaar, Falcon, and Strange.

Newark/Christiana TRU has the MU Sentinel, plus a refresh of a bunch of older, HTF MU figs - grey Hulk, Moon Knight, Skrull Soldier, Iron Spider Man, etc. Also all the Thundercats stuff, which I just don't have any interest in.

New Thundercats cartoon is awesome! Have you seen it? I don't really buy any other line other than GI Joe, my wallet is angry enough with me for that habit. I just moved back to the Newark area does Blue Hen carry 3.75" Joes? That's cool about the Sideshow 12"s I love that line but haven't got any. My friend has SE, SS and Firefly and man they are choice!

New Castle, here. No water coming in yet (never had any leaks in 3 years here). In fact, it's not even raining here at the moment.

So I went to TRU just now and got some disappointing news... Went to see if they had gotten any 30th Joes and I found the 3 pegs of Duke, Arctic Destro and Jungle Vipers gone! Not just the figures but the pegs too! Star Wars Vintage figures and pegs were gone too! I spoke to the manager and he said that the corporate initiative is to get away from adult collector toys and focus on little kids and movie tie-in lines. He said that GI Joe and Star Wars Vintage have been cut from TRU indefinitely. He said with the 2nd movie coming out they will pick up the line again but POC and 30th will not be stocked!!! SMH... Sad news indeed...

I totally agree but I can tell you that I saw for my own eyes the pegs for GI Joe and Star Wars Vintage were gone and replaced. So it may not be a "Corporate" decision across the board but our TRU definitely has dropped both lines for the time being... Boo!!!

He did say that multiple people every day come in asking for GI Joe and he agrees that they would sell if they stocked them but he said it wasn't their decision and that the company was moving away from adult collector oriented lines to focus on more kid oriented and movie lines...
