No luck here in Greensboro either. Last weekend I was staying in Surry County and hit up a few Dollar Generals there, but all I found were restocks of the regular wave.

Woud anyone happen to know if the Durham and/or Cary TRUs have the Pursuit of Cobra Mechs? I heard they are on clearance, and I would love to pick up a couple of the Cobra Mechs.

BTW I just moved to Raleigh from Charlotte and look forward to see you all while I am out hunting. Do we have any folks out there in the area that help each other with finding figures and such?

No idea why, but Durham TRU has MANY (maybe 8-9 of each?) Crimson HISS tanks and Black Dragon VTOLs.

I got Flint, Dark Ninja, and Firefly at Kmart on Capital Blvd in Raleigh today. I left a Wave 2 Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes. I saw the bike that comes with Flint at Kmart and Walmart today as well.

Target in Wake Forest had the Colton Wave this morning. I picked up Lady Jaye, Firefly, and the army builders. I left Colton, Roadblocks, a Snake Eyes, and Flint. I'm pretty sure everything else was wave 1.

The Lawndale Target in Greensboro had the wave 1, 2, and 2.5 figures out yesterday, as well as the HISS and the Ninja Combat Cruiser (VAMP retool). I picked up Lady Jaye, Joe Colton, and the G.I. Joe Trooper, but I left all the other 2.5 army builders.
