I was in Laredo today and the TRU has the vehicles, motorcycles and the swords and stuff. I bought the only ghost hawk II they had. No figures that I could see. There was no official display and they were actually scattered in two different aisles.
I posted this in the southern thread as well. I have never liked that Texas sightings are split. Last edited by PrimeOQZ; 05-26-2012 at 01:35 AM.. |

Originally, there was one single Texas sightings thread but people weren't happy with posts not coming close to their region so they got the mods to split us up (so much for uniting as fans). I would have prefered one thread as I still check all 3 because I find it helpful to see what people are finding in any area of Texas so I can start looking in my area.

It's like Soundwavempl said, it helps to know when other areas of Texas are getting product so we know when to start looking.

TRU on Parmer & I-35 in Austin has a few Prime Voyager Bulkheads and Starscreams as well as some older deluxe figures. There were a couple of GI Joe Retaliation figures and some non-movie figures like a regular Cobra Trooper, a couple of Renegades Cobra Troopers, Techno Vipers, a Hazard Viper and some peg-warmers. There were some MU light up base figures including Black Widow, Black Panther, Cap, Bucky Cap, Thor and of course IM.

After a disappointing toy run yesterday in my area, I had a great toy hunt today in the Navasota/Conroe/Woodlands area.
Navasota Walmart - has an Avengers Ultimate Hawkeye, left it there. Lake Conroe Walmart - has Avengers Ultimate Hawkeye and the 3 3/4" Avengers Comic Pack Collection 4-packs - one has Iron Man, Loki, Hawkeye, and Hulk and the other has Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and Black Widow. Only 1 of each and I left both. Conroe Walmart - had a full case of wave 1 Retaliation figures, I got the black Cobra Commander and Red Ninja and left the rest. This Walmart also has the new Spider-man figures and Dark Knight Rises figures out as well. I found a complete set of the GI Joe discount line at 1 of the 4 Dollar Generals in the Conroe area. The other 3 Dollar Generals didn't have them. Conroe Target - got MU Gambit & Mr. Sinister and Thanos & Adam Warlock Comic Packs, still 1 Thanos & Adam Warlock set left. This Target also had 6 Skystrikers for $25.00 and single carded figures for $7.48 (1 Airtight, 1 Renegades Cobra Trooper, a couple Ripcords and Scarletts mainly). Woodlands Walmart - had new Spider-man figures out, has 1 Mr. Sinister & Gambit and 3 Thanos & Adam Warlock comic packs, and has 2 POC Desert Battle Dukes for $5.00 (I left everything there) Woodlands ToysRUs - has a good amount of 30th/Renegades leftovers, mainly Scarletts, Ripcord, Tunnel Rat, Cobra Commander, Techno Vipers, Cobra Renegade Troopers, a Hazard Viper, and a regular Cobra Trooper Woodlands Target - 4 Renegade Cobra Commanders for $5.48 each.

Another great toy run today in the Porter/Kingwood/Humble/Atascocita area, here is the details:
Porter Dollar General - had a set of Joes minus Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow, I left Cobra Commander and got the Cobra Trooper, Duke, and Shipwreck. Porter Walmart - nothing Humble and Atascocita Dollar Generals - nothing Humble Target - nothing other than more Gambit/Mr.Sinister and Thanos/Adam Warlock comic packs Humble Toys R Us - using the BOGO 50% sale, I got another 30th Techno Viper and Renegades Cobra Trooper (they still have another Techno Viper, 3 Renegades Cobra Trooper, 1 Hazard Viper, and Scarletts and Ripcords). I also got Retaliation Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow, Red Ninja, and Cobra Trooper. Duke was at that was left. I also got the last Cobra Fangboat. Still 2 Snake Eyes AWE Strikers and 1 Ghost Hawk left as well as plenty of the motorcycle figures. Atascocita Walmart - Got Black Widow and Hawkeye, left the other Hawkeye, both Skrulls, and the rest of the case (Hulk, Loki, etc). Also has Gambit/Mr.Sinister and Thanos/Adam Warlock comic packs Atascocita Target - found 5 Skystrikers for $17.48. I went ahead and got them all. I still have 2 unspoken for that are up for grabs and I will bring to Taterbot's meetup if that is still a go and no one else wants them. There were 2 Arctic Destros, Renegades CC and Firefly for $5.48 there as well. Humble Tuesday Morning - picked up a ROC Paris Pursuit Baroness for $4.00 for the heck of it. I haven't had a good toy haul like this in a long time!
