Wow. I just came back from Mechahawaii (8/31) and somebody bought the Joe Resolute set and the loose Joe section is pretty much wiped out now. Somebody bought ALL the loose ROC stuff and all the good loose 25th stuff too. Must have been on Saturday because everything was still there last Thrusday and had been pegwarming for forever.

(8/31) Salt Lake Target: No Poc. No MU Endcap display anymore (replaced by IM2, no sea drone sets yet) Actually they don't have MU anywhere and no pegs either... not good. They only have the MU Target 2 packs left... Punisher/Iron Man x2 and Spidey/Green Goblin x5 (8/31) Stadium K-mart: Nothing new; no new IM2 stuff... somebody bought all the exclusive SW Jodo Kast (probably scalper). They did have POC mechs though and cleared out all the ROC figs, so maybe our K-marts will be carrying POC after all. The Punisher set is really tempting me, but I would be paying $15 just for Punisher. Although the IM color scheme is nice I have zero use for it... That stadium Kmart is probably the best one on the entire island, I mean seriously, the Waikele Kmart is only good for SW's which I don't collect, everything else hasn't even been updated for like a year or two. |

Totally know how you feel; I just basically spent $15 for my Target 2 pack Tiger Stripe Wolvie, but I am used to it already since EVERY MU fig I bought was between $11-$15 at comic or specialty shops.

Salt Lake Target never even restocked once either, but since all the mainland Targets are getting Wave 2 it is pretty much a certainty that either this week or next week our Targets will also get wave 2 instead of a Wave 1 restock. I am probably just going to buy 2 Jungle Vipers and that's it for me... maybe Recondo since he will be so hard to find since he's 1 per case.

Damn man now I feel bad for complaining lol. I thought me spending $8-9 on POC was harsh. If I ever see Ghost Rider for $15 I'd have a seriously hard time not buying it... The Juggernauts for 25 were already tempting me before I just got pissed off at that price lol. |

Juggernaut is getting re-released with the Ghost Rider revision wave; we just need Walmart to start carrying MU more like how some of the mainland Walmarts are. Pearl City Jelly's is like MU scalper central; I saw Juggs there for $20.

Yah, but I buy like 1 MU fig a month so it is not that bad for me; if I were buying multiple figs I couldn't/wouldn't pay mark up.

Pearl City Jelly's is like MU scalper central; I saw Juggs there for $20. Yeah that's definitely not going to happen last time a Wal-Mart did that is when X-force Wolvie was still out lol. That's $5 better than Collector Maniacs, I thought the guys price would have lowered since he had so many the last time I went but nope, a whole peg full, the most of any single figure in the store and still $25. |

Was at the Salt Lake Target yesterday afternoon during my lunch break (09/02) and they had some POC wave 2s up. No Jungle Vipers or Recondos of course. Picked up a Dusty and Zartan however.

Salt Lake Target (9/3) No JVs, Recondo x1, Dusty x2, bunch of Destro, Zartan, & SE. Didn't buy anything.
TRU (9/3) No POC. Honestly; I am glad they didn't have any Jungle Vipers... removes temptation; except for Wave 3 SE and Wave 4 Low-Light I think I am done with Joes. And for MU the only thing I want is Jim Lee Cyclops... I am probably done hunting until December at least.

I am tempted to go out for those but knowing my luck and those quantities I'll just be wasting my time and will probably be staring at a tornado kick SE...

If senorvandal saw them yesterday too it means they restocked 1 case today... I wonder if that means they will also restock 1 case tomorrow too. Looks like from that wave only the Jungle Vipers get picked clean and sometimes Recondo... the rest sit for a while though. *shrugs*
