Hasbro has sacrificed quality for quantity. I no longer care for getting most the stuff they're making available from now through 2010. Hopefully, they'll offer more characters and larger vehicles as time goes by but from whats coming out; its just no worth hunting for.
Today I ventured up to Cockeysville, MD to check for CS SE, SORRY!!! no sightings at all of Waves 4 -5 at the Target and Super Walmart in this area. I saw the latest MU Wolverine and Spider Man and debating whether they were worth getting. Overall, the MU line suffers from poor character/figure modeling and molding, horrible paint apps and a sky high price point that can't be justified for such a small figure scale. I put back the House of M Spidey on shelves and left Target. I didn't see any WM exclusive Battle Stations at the Super Walmart across the street either. Today's search was a waste.

Finally saw the Dragonhawk and Hydra at WM yesterday. That was my first sighting of it at a WM. Based on the packaging, I could not justify $25 for that Dhawk and the fig with the Hydra just didn't cut it for me.
They are finally selling through their singles but still only waves 1-3.

Heh - I think you've rung me out before. I was in there months ago and checked out in electronics, and the cashier was all excited that I was buying Joes.

Yeah, wasn't you then. No idea what the guy's name was - I might be able to pick him out if he was at the store, but that'd be about it.

I picked up the Resolute Roadblock Battle Station from Walmart today for $15.96 in Towson, MD. I missed out on Wave 4 from TRU in Columbia today. It's a shame because I have this $10 gift card for TRU and I expect to spend on the 2 for $9.99 sale this weekend :( . Anyways it's good to hear about new sightings regardless. Today while I was in Walmart I saw a Helix figure with a pretty decent head swap ( the head looked remarkably good on the Helix figure btw) repackaged and placed on front of the pegs. I paid it no mind and walked around the other side of the aisle to look for some new stuff. When I came back I saw that a phat MILF picked up that repacked figure and was still in the aisle. I helped her by telling her that it was a repackaged toy. She was appreciative since she had no idea if she was getting the right figures. A good deed always makes me feel good at the end of the day.
