I'm beginning to wonder... most of my local walmarts have these huge end cap displays with hundreds of Joe figures on the shelf and nothing more recent then the Helix/Hawk wave on them, they probably have the more recent stuff but don't have the floor space to put it out. I've spent way too much gas looking for the PP Baroness and Duke, but stores are catching up with TF releases now and the new stuff is getting easier to find so I guess I'm back to collecting ROTF again.
I think its still too early for wave 4 on GA shelves just yet, so I haven't been looking for it. California just received them, so would imagine that we need to give it another week or two. I'm okay waiting personally b/c I am anticipating wave 5 more b/c of the Resolute SE. Admittedly, it may be based on my own personal interests, but I don't imagine that we'll get inundated again until November/December when the polar sharc sub, mini-battle stations, and POC waves begin to peek thru. |

I think we're actually in a mini-lull for ROC right now. I have been able to get everything I could afford so far through waves 1, 2, and 3 at my local TRU. My local Targets and Walmarts have had everything at one time or another except C1 W3, but I got those at TRU. I have seen the exclusives at both WM and TRGT and newer vehicles except for the Sky Sweeper wave (bravo wave 3) and Alpha wave 2s.

Going to pick up another Jetfire and some rare earth magnets this weekend so I can make some removable Jetfire armour for my powered up Prime project. |

Found the WM 2-packs at the Perimeter Store, scored the Gung-ho set. Also picked up a Firefly VS Green Shirts 5-pack at the Ross down the street. The package had been opened and it looks like one of the rifles is missing. doesn't matter as the whole set is going to be used as parts for customs and the clerk reduced it by 10%..

Went on a run today to several places. Went to TRU in Buford, Target and Walmart in Buford, plus Target in Flowery Branch. Didn't find squat. Well, actually I found Accelerator Suit Duke at TRU but that was it.
You know, I'm starting to remember why I gave up on DCUC figures there for a while and concentrated on ROC stuff. Because with the ROC stuff I could actually find SOMETHING!! Arg! I had decided after DragonCon to focus on super heroes again but for the life of me can't find wave 9 and 8. All there seems to be are wave 2 blue Supes, some wave 6 and 7 leftovers and Cyborg. GAH!! I really, really want to find a blue wave 9 Wildcat and Black Canary. and I really need the atom smasher torso piece that came with the wave 7 aquaman.

I was in Albany's Wal-Mart yesterday looking for the 2 packs. They don't have 'em and there's no shelf space. The girl who works that department gave me the usual "all that we have is already on the shelves". Maybe they'll show up by the end of the month, but I'm not holding my breath.
Anybody else here from the non-Atlanta area parts of Georgia? The Atlanta area counts as it's own seperate place to everyone who doesn't live there. It's nothing like the rest of the state... which is 2-20 years behind modern progress. I HATE Albany!

Well, I'm from the Warner Robins area, and I believe JCross is from the Milledgeville area. Most of the active posters in the GA Sightings are from the Atlanta area, though.
