If you're gonna toss the cardboard ping pong table, I'll take it!

A little off topic, but does anyone in the Greensboro area know if any theaters are having a midnight showing of ROC? I haven't found one that is doing a midnight showing yet.
Thanks |

It may be a little early to find out just yet. I checked yahoo Movies yesterday and the only places that even have it listed thus far are:
Regal Palladium Cinemas 14 (High Point) Starts on Thu, Aug 6 Cinemark Brassfield Cinema 10 (GSO) Starts on Fri, Aug 7 I'm sure that if the Brassfield is gonna have it, then the Carousel, Grand18, Carmike or Friendly Center will have it too I'll probably try for the Grand 18 by the mall |

I prefer the 18 by the mall also, right now I'm seeing an 11:20 or so start on Friday morning. I guess that will be the earliest I can see it. I'm starting to get a little impatient for Aug. 7!

Picked up Helix, the Elite Viper, and the Pit Commando at the Pineville Target tonight. I saw Hawk in Gastonia last weekend, but I didn't buy him. He was the only figure from that wave they had, and I figured I'd grab him when I found the rest of the wave. Someone had already grabbed Hawk and Flash when I found these tonight, though, so I kinda wished I'd picked him up when I had the chance. I'm thinking this Pit Commando might end up making for a better Law with Order from that forthcoming desert pack.
Still no Dragonhawks on the south or east sides of town. Only one store (Pineville) had additional Bravo Class vehicles in the stockroom, and a kid who worked there was kind enough to go check for me. More Gunships and Hummers. Since the chopper made a couple of appearances in Virginia over the last day or two, it shouldn't be too much longer now. |

Dragonhawk is at (or was)at the big Target in downtown Charlotte. They also had the crimson jet.

Two Targets today in GSO were doing their Toy Aisle reset and I saw all of the Collection 2 Wave 3 figures (only saw 1 each of Helix and Pit Commando) there were 2-3 of each figure at both stores (except for Helix and Pit Commando)
Also saw a new knock off line of figures kinda like GI Joe or the Corps. It's made by Unimax (the same guys that do the Bravo Force toyline) There are single figures for $1.99 and 4 packs for $9.99 (the 4 packs have more accessories and a small vehicle? hovercraft? It's a platform with fans. The figures look interesting and are constructed like the Joe Vs Cobra figures (T-crotch but everything else is older Joe articulation) I'll probably grab a few when I get paid on Friday (I didn't even have enough to get all the Wave 3 figures) |

Ha! I went there this morning for something else and found it before seeing your post, but many thanks for the info. They also have two cases worth of C2 W3. I picked up the Hawk and Flash figures I still needed, the Dragonhawk, and a set of the Secret Wars comic packs. I am officially done with Big Box retail until C1 W3 figures start showing up around here.

Target on Dave Lyle in Rock Hill had several new figures tonight when I stopped in. Picked up one Elite Viper, EEL, Crimson Neo-Viper and Helix.
CC, you found the new MU Secret Wars comic packs already? And here I thought I would have a little time for my wallet to recover!
