I ran into a group a couple weeks ago, the guy was about to have a heart attack cause he beat the other guy to the white lightning cars, or something like that.. one guy ran to one side, the other to the other and he was just going at it talking about how he couldn't believe he lucked out and how he was shaking cause he was soooooo excited, lol...
I guess I should start playing up the "WWWWOOOOAAAHHH.. I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY HAVE THE SUPER RARE HEAVY DUTY FIGURE!!!! ONE TO A CASE, I'M GONNA MAKE A FORTUNE OFF IT!!!!" |

I'm so pissed, I went to Walmart in Addison and they got 3 cases of MU too bad they were the old wave, same thing with Target.
On a lighter note, I ran into 2 women looking for Zuzu pets what ever that was..They were asking me what I was looking for. |

Ha, ha! I actually was doing something similar. I grabbed all of the new multipacks they had and was carrying them around like they were the holy grail. They were REALLY interested in what I was carrying. Then I acted like I left my money in the car and set them down. Yes, it was dumb but I must admit I like to mess with people...especially scalpers. ;-)
BTW, it was the first time I saw those new desert camo movie multipacks and I was very disappointed. I definitely won't be picking them up until they're on clearance and then they'll only be used for fodder. Quote:
Fake them out by gushing over the peg-warmers and saying how much you wish you had the cash to pick up all of these 'extremely popular' figures. Make sure to mention that you sold the wave 1 Baroness, Destro, or Viper on Ebay for $30 because nobody can find these anywhere else in the country.

I saw a Star Wars scalper a couple of weekends ago at a local Target and then again at the Wal Mart next door. He was literally consulting his printed list and carefully scrutinizing the Slave Leia and Ewok figures from the two cases they had just put out. I've never seen someone look them over that closely before.
I half expected to see him whip out a jeweler's magnifying eye piece like something out of an old Bugs Bunny cartoon...

Sorry for asking such a question to you guys, but since I'm a noob to Joe collecting... I was wondering how many of you guys have the SDCC Destro 2-pack, and what was your opinoin of it. I'm tempted to pull the trigger and order it from HTS since it's only $24.99 there and like $54.99 everywhere else.
