Well, I'm back in CA now, but thanks a ton guys for letting me share your hunting grounds for a few weeks! Haha.
On December 29th, I drove from Raleigh to Gastonia, and stopped at at least 90% of the Targets and Wal-Marts along I-40/I-85: TRU Crossroads in Cary Target Crossroads in Cary Wal-Mart on Glendwood Target on Glenwood Target at Brier Creek Wal-Mart at Brier Creek Target at South Point Wal-Mart at 15/501 Wal-Mart in Greensboro Wal-Mart in Thomasville Wal-Mart in Lexington Wal-Mart in Salisbury K-Mart in Salisbury Wal-Mart in Kannapolis Wal-Mart in Concord Wal-Mart in Gastonia The farther you get from Raleigh, the shittier the store's stock, I found. Haha. I found plenty of Vipers, which are rare in CA. The only thing I managed to get was the Wave 7 CPs, 1 set of each, but I did manage to get ahold of SidDarth, who is a standup guy. I regret not being able to meet him, but I just placed a solid order with him that should get me ALMOST caught up minus the newest vehicles. It was a blast being back in NC guys!

Interesting stuff at the High Point Target. First they had remannts of the wave 13 case (no resolute or blowtorch), and the new Mighty Muggs.
There's also a new generic military 4" line. The figures aren't very good, BUT the vehicle they had was great! AND it was marked down to $2.46! It's a Navy Seal Desert Striker type vehicle (think Awe-Striker). It had a markdown sticker on it because it's not on file. Strange. |

^^^^This was at Target?
Hey guys, I'm heading to Durham on Sunday for a week. Any stores in the area that are convenient to Duke Medical Center? If so, are they worth a shit?

There is a WalMart across the street that is hit or miss. I know I haven't hit it in weeks. May be ripe for the picking.

Holy crap. I went to the University Target, you know, the one that only ever has 4 Wild Williams. They've reset the Joe section, moved it to the opposite side of the aisle, and what did I behold? A bunch of wave 1 and 2 foil cards! They were either returns or they were sitting on them in the back. I picked up w1 Officer and w2 Trooper (SUPER AWESOME COLLECTOR JOY! I didn't have these yet.) They still have a Major Bludd, Viper, IG Destro and Wild Bill all on foil cards, also w6 CPs. Oh, and one UBP on clearance for $38.58.

Monroe WM had a Sting Raider and a FireBat. I took the SR and left the FireBat. They had a few other vehicles too. Tons of Combat Heroes.

Just got back from meeting with SidDarth at the toy show at the State Fairgrounds today. I bought all of wave 12 as well as the Shockwave/Destro and Tunnel Rat/Storm Shadow comic packs. As is always the case, The Outer Rim Collectibles towers over all other dealers at these Raleigh shows. Incredible selection, unbeatable prices, and a hell of a nice guy running the business. (And I'm not even being compensated to say all of these things!)
