[QUOTE=RikkiTikki;105728]SWEET!! Man, it's great to meet someone local! How have your raids on the Wal-marts have been? They are pretty bare bones when I see them. Mostly just Scarlet and CC hanging there, Buzzer occasionally.
The TRU in Fairview has been alright. Picked up two more Cobra Troopers and a Beach-Head tonight. Left a SS v. RN five-pack, several Comic packs, a Lady Jaye, two Buzzers, Serpentor, CC and...frak, I can't remember the other fig. S6 they had 1 CC, 3 Zartans, 2 SS, and 1 SE. No 3-packs. Have you gotten your Target vehicles? Had some problems getting them over here, but I finally got them in Missouri by my work last week. It's been pretty dry over at the Edwardsville and Collisnville Wal-Mart but they did recently get two cases in each. E-ville got two wave 4 cases and Collinsville one wave 4 and one wave 2 revision. Target in Shiloh is just pathetic while the E-ville one occasionally restocks. I had to get my Target exclusives from my brother up in Springfield, IL. Is there anything in particular you need? |

Man, I went into East Belleville Wal-Mart by SWIC and WOW! That's the fullest I've ever seen them. 5-IG Destros, 2-CGs, 4-Torpedos, 3-BACC, 4-R&Rs, 6-Snow Jobs, 7-Cobra Troopers and 4-Cobra Air Troopers. I about flipped my lid. If you're looking for any of those, as of 9:45 pm Tuesday...that's what they had.
I agree, the Shiloh Target is just pathetic. The Belleville one has been okay. But they are kind of dry too. Now, the Target next to my work in Missouri has been really good to me. That's where I got my vehicles at. After hitting Wal-Mart tonight, now I'm just looking for Flash, Flint, Snake-Eyes w/Timber, and a Cobra Officer. How about you?

I went to the Carbondale/Marion area this past weekend and they didn't have anything, except for a few Wave 4 stragglers.

Welcome, Amy!!
Every DuPage County Target has had HISS Tanks & Sharcs, but no Strikers - which sucks, because although I don't want another jeep, I need another Crankcase for a custom!! T_T" The Wheaton Target also had a Rock'N'Roll & Torpedo, along with a black mask/silver logo Cobra Trooper, and the St. Charles store had the new revision case (grabbed the last, 2-peg stand Lady Jaye, sorry - my first LJ!!). Forgot to check if Beachhead had the fixed crotch, darnit. No Flint. I'm a saaaaaaad panda. T_T" Still no TRU 3-packs anywhere, either. T_T" Last edited by TENIME_art; 04-16-2008 at 01:34 PM.. |

So today has been a great day.....first we get confirmation of a bunch of new figs.
Now we get a Fan Wave...I hope some of the winners are popular army builders...BATS, Snow Serpents, EELs, and a few favs Destro, Storm Shadow, Zartan. Finally is it true??? Could I possibly be seeing another of my fav l80s ines updated??? The figure first known as MASK is now confirmed by Hasbro as Specialist Trakker?? I just have to say...as a die hard Joe and MASK fan, I wouldnt have a problem with this. Plus the similarities are just too close. First it was MASK, not Mask in the walmart system. Now it has been replaced and confirmed by Hasbro as Specialist Trakker. First off Matt Trakker was the leader of MASK, his name is the only name that has ever taken that spelling of Trakker. Secondly Matt Tracker was known as a computer specialist and referred to as a specialist all the time in the show. Im not getting my hopes up, but I would be very surprised if this isnt Matt Trakker and hopefully a shot at the rebirth of MASK. Even if it isnt a rebirth, Id love to have just a single MASK figure, except Id love a Miles Mayhem figure too -Checked the Walmart on Route 53 & Butterfield, as usual, they had nothing.

Heatviper! Damn it's good to here from you! How have you been?
Let me know what you need on the TRU exclusives and I will help you out any way I can. Last time I checked the Fairview TRU they had none in stock. Welcome back! |

Eric, Heatviper,
Let me know what you need from TRU, I work St. Louis right next to one, and can easily change my route home to hit a second one. I'm more than happy to help you guys out! |
