the flea market I was refering to, is at the Iowa State Fairgrounds in the 4-H building. The guy has lots of vintage stuff and some VvV stuff, but not much. I dont think he as anything of the 25th. The guy also sells vintage transformers, star wars, wrestling and various other figures and vehicles. He's reasonably priced, but his stuff isn't always complete. but what he does have is in good condition. He's usually towards the back...

I really hope to see some wave 7 figures here in Des Moines soon. I might have to travel to some other towns to see whats happening there, just in case!

Hey guys,
Yesterday at around 5pm, the 8th Street Wal-Mart in Des Moines had about four cases of the Wave 7 as well as a few leftovers from earlier waves. The four to six pegs they were on were completely full/overflowing. I grabbed one set for myself, but figured I'd give you guys a heads up, hopefully before the scalpers buy them all up! They also had two full pegs worth of every one of the comic packs currently available. Good luck! |

Well, here I sit in my house at 9:15pm anxiously awaiting the moment I can go get some of my own bright and early tomorrow morning. Hope they still have a few. . . probably not.

By 11:00 am 5-2-08 they're all gone. None at 8th St, Mills Civic, Altoona, or Ankeny. Wasn't able to check SE14th, so, who knows maybe tonight I will and I'll get lucky. Or, maybe I'll just have to wait some more.
Keep posting. OUT!!!

Thanks for the heads up on the flea market. Got some awesome pieces plus found a new resource for completing my collection that does not involve tons of shipping or exorbitant prices.

yeah, he usually brings alot more... but appearantly he's selling more stuff on Ebay now, because he hasn't had the luck of moving it through the flea market... but he does have alot of stuff at his house. i've bought a ton of stuff from him in the past. and he's always been really fair and reasonable (and like you said, you don't have to pay shipping!!!)
Any luck on some of that wave 7 stuff yet? I still haven't seen them anywhere else. |
