There are a couple of RO 3 packs, and a Ninja 5 pack, but this store hasn't gotten in any single cards (to my knowledge) since early April. Anybody confirm or deny this?

i was there today,and thats what they had indeed...

Does anybody know if those packs will ever go on sale? I think they were $25 at Walmart and Targot. But they've been gone for a year now and TRU's packs are just sitting there collecting dust....

they are currently $12 each at ROSS cloths store

For all you guys in my area and I know there are a few of you.

Good news and bad...

Good news first...

Target in stroudsburg, PA, RTE 611 had two of each single carded figure

barbecue
gen hawk
ninja-ku
bazooka
1 BAT
torpedo
wild bill

Bad news...

A friggin' card bender got to ALL of the single carded figures. And the BAT was even mashed on his bubble so badly, causing paint wear on his sculpt.

But if you want figures to open to display, they are fully stocked as of 10pm the 7th. The BAT paint scheme can be fixed as I looked it over.

Secondary good news....

Also, all currently released DVD battle packs, MIB. 3 of each set, MIB.

All vehicles, MIB.

All the new comic packs, a ton of them, but no Variant Destro, all MOC.

So if you are out this way, drain them of their stock, because I called ahead, as I was running late to see if they had any figures, and the guy said NO. I'm getting to know this dude, and he speaks barely any English, and doesn't understand a word you say.

So he prob says no to everything because he has no clue, and probably cannot read. He's very hard to talk to in person as well, and seems completely puzzled by every word I have said to him face-to-face as well.

Basically he prob didn't want customers coming in close to closing. But I chanced it.

They were there though. If you guys drain the stock, they will order more singles, that will hopefully be nicely carded next time.

Unless that bitch card bender shows up and messes up the works.

I got the last Nemesis pack, apparently. Nothing else in the area. I took a trip east to my parents - 5 Walmarts and several counties, and nothing. Found a lot of stuff as early as wave 2, and a whole mess of Vipers and comic packs wave 1-3. One of them had about 8 DVD packs. Plenty of wave 9, but not a single BAT or Snow Serpent.
