She is right. Good things come to those who wait.

I've never found bludd at retail. I have some from HTS. But, I read this thread at work, then left to the groccery store, and what do you no. One lonely Major Bludd warming the peg. It was in great shape so I picked it up.

I do not want to be patient. I'll admit that I eventually found all the figures and comic packs up to wave 6... but after that it's been really hard to find figures.
Perhaps it's the fact that there are tons of comic packs here in Utah and I can understand why stores don't want to add the new sets of comic packs to the pegs if they're clogged with the old ones... but come on!!! Me want! Every time I find a store with wave 7 and 8, those two pesky figures, Major Bludd and Hiss Tank Driver are no where to be seen... were they forgotten? Did someone else get them? I'm usually pretty lucky when I go shopping... I get there when they've restocked... but so far not one Bludd or Hiss Tank Driver. I'm driving my wife bonkers complaining about it, lolol. She keeps saying, "You were so worried you'd never find Torpedo and you eventually found him." I want to believe that eventually I'll find the figures I'm missing... but it's gonna suck if I miss the boat on Major Bludd and Hiss Tank Driver. I'm really worried about the BAT too. I guess if worse came to worse, I'll pay a bit more for those figures on BBTS or Smalljoes... but it's hard to pay extra for stuff I've been pretty fortunate to find on the pegs. Rant over... gotta go play with my wife now.

I'm cheap so I will wait for Walmart to get them, at least until my stimulas check arrives, then I will ebay order wave 9 or at least Hawk, Bazooka, and Barbecue.

Xerofall - I will be flying to SLC in a week and half or so, How many Bludds do you want? Also I have some extra wave 7 & 8...what do you need? Sell them to you at retail plus tax...if you can wait that long, no shipping, although you will have to pick them up from me at the hotel.

i probably worse than you xero.........i think i will find nothing.
im so bad that when the first two box sets were announced way back when......i seriously doubted id ever see them. i dont know why im like that, cuz ive found every figure so far. and its not just joes......its practically everything i see that i want. my theory is that ever since the internet....i find out about stuff so far in advance that the wait seems eternal...and that makes it more difficult when im reading of someone anywhere im not, finding figures. remember the old days when you went to the store and there were new joes....guys you didnt know were coming....guys who you didnt know they were. and the only indications of more coming were the card backs and the little catalogues you got with vehicles and other non-carded figure joe toys. the mystique of holding a guy like airtight and when you held him, it was the first time youd ever even seen him! great times. great times indeed. (and there was no Ebay F'ing shit up either) |

So Thursday night my wife wants some soda so at about 10 pm we go to Wal-mart and what do you know??
Wave 9!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yay! No BATs however. My wife says, "Get two of each." So I do. I drive her home and she tells me that I should drive to every Walmart in Salt Lake City to find the BATs, Bludds or Hiss Drivers. So I'm out for about two hours hitting evey store, finding plenty of wave 9, but no BATs, Bludds or Hiss Drivers, hahaha. Finally, the last Wal-Mart I go to... they were re-vamping their toy section, it was all torn apart but I squeeze by and find 2 BATs and 2 Hiss Drivers, hehehe!!!! So in one night, right after I post this rant, I find all of wave 9 and the Hiss Driver. I got two of each so I can open one and keep one MOC. Yeah, I know... be patient.
