I like Walmart price better than Target. And I still find it hard to believe that the Pit are selling.
The freakin thing has no appeal to me. However, if it goes on clearance for llike $30- bucks then sure, why not. |

While there is build up of the same figures, a bigger problem is some Target stores that haven't been sent stock since late August. Half the stores I stop at have plenty of room for 6 or more cases of figures and no one is sending these stores more figures. Only one Target put out a single case past Wave 3, but it was the same Wave 5 Rev. 1 every WM in town has been stocking steadily for a month.
We have our Wave 2 finally and I'm happy for that. Some made more room while others just swapped out the Wave 1 stock for the new Wave 2. Getting a SNAKE was difficult due to a severe army builder (or maybe this jerk is a scalper, but I've seen him buy 14 now between several stores), yet I do finally have the one I wanted. I can pick up a 2nd for myself next year, as long as I got my one for now.

I haven't been to my local Target since Black Friday so I don't know about what they have on the shelf but the WM closest to me has stock five W5 cases in the last week. I picked up the last CSSE they had Thursday, went back yesterday and they had three more. So the ROC figures have to be moving pretty good because the pegs are almost full but not as full as they would be if they just kept putting figures out.

We ended up on the same patrol path that day (each store was under 10mins from the last one) so I would run into him just as he was walking out of the aisle or almost to the register each time. I've had that happen with several collectors & scalpers over the years. Usually SW people. lol.

Yeah, the 2 Targets by me have nothing past wave 3.
Dukes, Destro, Baroness, Neo Vipers, and Heavy Duty. |

If Joes are really selling at a 3:4 ratio to SW Clone figures, that's awesome, and bodes very well for the future of the line!

Same here. I don't even bother with Target. Every time I go in there it's exactly the same. The only thing they ever restock are the Star Wars figures. And Toys R Us is a hundred times worse. That shitty store hasn't restocked in 6+ months. They had that 2 for $9.99 sale a couple weeks ago & never restocked anything since. |
