Hi everyone...this is my first post here. I've been following the Toy Fair news all weekend and I saw there was a thread just for Ohio, so I registered so I could get in on this thread!!
The guys at Rebelscum have a pretty good network for Ohio guys collecting Star Wars, but they're not very helpful for Joes, so that's why I'm here! I'm in Stow, pretty close to Akron. I hit up the Wal Marts and Targets in Stow, Streetsboro, Macedonia, Cuyhoga Falls, etc. I've had some luck, but lately I'm coming up empty!! I am desperately searching for just two more figures so I can call it quits for now....a Wave 1 '08 all black Snake Eyes...I haven't seen it ANYWHERE! I actually managed to find a Crimson Guard at the Streetsboro wal mart a few weeks ago, which shocked me since he's the army builder, but no others from that wave....not a trace! I really want that Snake Eyes! And the other is the Wave 4 Storm Shadow, the single carded version of the Cobra 5 pack. I never ever saw these and didn't even think they got released in Ohio until last week when I found the remnants of the wave at Wal mart in Stow. A Gung Ho and a Roadblock. Man, this is my current Holy Grail....I just want a Stormy to leave MOC and one to open, and I fear I'll never find the damn thing!! I'm always one step too late!! If anyone spots these in my area, PLEASE let me know!! I appreciate your help!! Thanks!! |

I scored ONE single carded Storm Shadow at a Target today!! It was all they had...I didn't mind paying the 5.99 as opposed to wal mart's 4.88....I just wanted the damn thing! They still had a few other wave 4s if anyone needs them....the Stow Kent Target on 59!
Still looking for wave 5 Snake Eyes! And an extra Stormy! But I'm very close to my goal!! |

After much searching, at long last, I have the Wave 3 comic packs! These were my holy grail, and now that I have finally found them, I am a happy camper! The store? Target, in Grove City of all places. I looked high and low in Columbus, with a multitude of Wal-Marts that had bare pegs for these packs, and with so many members here and on Joe Sightings finding them there, I never thought that I would find them at a Target first! Oh well, I guess it just goes to show that you can't take any store for granted. Now I just need to find them again, so I can get another Twins pack, as the one I have has figures that are not painted as well as I would have liked... but I'm still happy!

I can tell you though, I also collect Star Wars avidly and there are a group of Hot Wheels collectors that are huge scalpers in the Canton area. I used to hit Walmart at the Strip, Target, and TRU, and have seen those guys each morning. The battle is them, not the stores. I have a hard time beliving that nothing is being stocked, I really think these jerks keep buying everything up. If anyone in this area wants to work together and get the figs we want contact me with a PM and we can figure out the details. Last edited by Cor407; 02-21-2008 at 01:43 AM.. |
