I like the TRU exclusives. QK is definitely the weaker of the two. The only thing that I don't like about Spirit is the gun he comes with. It seems out of scale. Maybe that's because I have the Marauders version, which is more accurate I think.

I was wondering if Target in Warwick has anything worth driving up there for. I am looking for the 75% off stuff, and POC CC, Beachhead, and Alley Viper. Think I am gonna pass on the rest. Also, looking for Star Wars Vintage Collection figs. I have some money set aside for them, though not as much as I had hoped as I bought a new car this week. After not having one for 4 years, its nice to be able to hunt whenever I want. So anyways, is it worth me driving up there today?

The warwick target only had a couple of the roc deluxe air vipers and wetsuits left, so I doubt it would be worth a trip, they might not even be there anymore. They had some Prince of Persia stuff left too, but those you can probably find at any target (I picked up the double sword one for $2). The mall target doesn't have much clearance since they were closed from the flood and only stocked new stuff when it reopened (so they did have sw vintage, but just remnants left now).
Oh forgot to mention, smithfield target had the new TF Human Alliance Jazz on Friday. Smithfield tjmaxx had some DC Infinite Heroes Parallax 3pks for $6, does anyone here collect that line? I don't (except for deathstroke after seeing his pic in all the JohnnyAngel posts). If anyone can help me out, I'm currently looking for MU Archangel (regular version) and Colossus. I read that some targets have gotten endcap cardboard shipper trays with MU (like walmart had around xmas last year). So if you come across them, can you please maybe stash 1 of each for me and PM me. Thanks.

Target in warwick did not do their reset and the not so friendly manager told me they do not follow what the other stores do and it will be at least a week til it happens.
Myname here I think we are looking prob for the same MU figures I don't go out as much anymore but I will def keep you in mind. If anyone sees the little red cobra zip car, clearenced at target for 3 dollars could you stash and pm thxs. For those finding the poc figures already what do you think? |

And that is why I'm not a huge fan of that target, not many personable employees there.
Grabbed a Doom Cycle the other day, as a side note not too bad could have been way worse. Now my kids have a bike to play with their joes with. |

It's always been tough to meet all of your Joe needs in RI. The majority of my collection has been bought online.
Atomsmasher, I've never bought a case of figures lol. I get 1 of each figure and some extras of troopers, but that's it really. |

just got back from a toy hunt. I hit Walmart in Wickford. Nothing. Walmart in Coventry, More nothing. Actually it was kind of depressing. That Walmart is usually pretty good. But 20 feet of literally nothing on the shelves? Weird. And what the hell is wrong with that store. Did they forget to pay the electric bill or something. It was so dark I could barely see, and the lights were on. On to TRU. No POC, but they had about 12 Attack on the Pit playsets for $2.00 off. WOW, thanks for the discount TRU. They had tons of the new Star Wars, but come on Hasbro. What were they thinking when they made those. Some were really good, others terrible. C-3PO I'm looking at you! After seeing them in person, I decided I am only buying the figures they didn't release in 2004-05 VOTC. On to both Targets. Mall had some SW, so I grabbed Dak Ralter and the new Darth Maul. I also grabbed the Doom Cycle, but passed on the Ghost Hawk. I think 5 originals is good enough. BH rd. I grabbed Prince of Persia playset for $5. I think its good for dios. By the way, were one of you there at about 11:15. Someone came down the ailse looking for Joes and left as dissapointed as I was. Anyways if so, I was the guy in the blue volunteer shirt. Last stop was FD in Hope Valley. I grabbed all the troop builders they had, which weren't many. 1 Snow trooper, 2 Bats, 2 soldiers, and a BA CC, plus 2 Star Trek figures just for the chairs.

It wasn't me that you saw.
That Doom Cycle and Ghost Hawk set had been there since Friday morning. |
