Fair Play! Lord knows with this line whether or not we'll even see the figures again if we pass on them. Posting a sighting is an act of kindness for fellow collectors, but if you snooze on the hunt, you lose and it's nobody else's fault.

Plus, army builders clean up the extras from the new cases so more can come in. I think Hasbro is getting the idea too. Notice the extras in the new cases (2008 cases) are more army builders and fewer Shipwrecks, Stalkers, Serpentors and Lady Jayes. Not to mention dedicated army builder exclusives for TRU... |

I checked the tru in woodbridge this weekend only to find a wave 6 c.c. tucked back on the top shelf under the shelving flap. since they only had a few figures on the aisle pegs, i can only assume someone had hidden it. luckily, i know this happens to i check around and got luck this time.

The Target in Greenbrier had Duke, Roadblock and Gung-Ho which I picked up, along with the original CC, cobra soldier and Snow Job, the usual comic packs and a Tomax/Xamot comic pack. The Target in Hickory had 1 Snow Job and nothing else.

If you still need any 2 packs, go to the Walmart off Cedar Rd in Chesapeake, they had tons of each one.
However, they only had Serpentor and the cobra soldier with the jetpack for singles.
