Found the X-Men Origins: Wolverine figures tonight... Sunnyvale TRU. I honestly think I want the peg-warmers, and not the rest of this series.
I picked up Tiger Stripe Wolvie, "Logan" Wolvie (tank top and Jeans) and the Weapon X Wolverine. There's at least one or two of each left, plus a Sabretooth or 2, and the Commando Wolverine. I saw the Deadpool last week, and Maverick, but their scale seems weird or something. I'm not a huge fan of them. Surprisingly, the best head sculpt I've found for the 3-3/4" Wolverine is the Logan head, which looked the worst in the press pics. I found one with great eyes, not all of them have good paint on them. I'm a little miffed about my Weapon X, his shin has the foot peg torn through... Doesn't seem that section of the leg is that thick, and the peg either wore through when assembled, or there was a pit in the mold to begin with. Anyone else found that to be a problem? |

Hello Nor cal hunters. I am located in the North Bay. If there is something someone needs badly, let me know. I don't seem to have trouble finding things in the Santa Rosa area. I'll be glad to pick up a treasure hunt for you. This worked well for me with a friend. Most of my collection is complete from networking with friends. The trouble in completeing a collection is getting a jump on the scalpers.

Oh and I sometimes work weekends in SF and have family in Grass Valley, so hooking up with fellow collectors shoudn't be an issue.

I have not been able to see a Cap in any of the stores(the only stores that I've found them in is TRU and Walmart). Some of the figures seem to be going fast, I was hoping to go back and pick up the Deadpool and the Silver Surfer at TRU but no luck.

I found Deadpool at SJ Monterey walmart and others, but I cannot find Gambit nor Capt. America. I guess we will see more sometimes in April.

If anyone is in the Sunnyvale TRU, check out the "Ultimate Repaint" DVD pack... One set has a Duke with half his hair painted. QC awesomeness!
