Target- Madison Heights- John R south of 14 Mile:
A couple Wave 1 comic packs
1 Buzzer

Don't waste the gas!

[Crimson Guard]

Wal-Mart in Canton had one of each of the Tomax/Xamot two pack, a Dreadnok two pack and a CG/Scarface two pack as of midnight last night.

For any of you Power Ranger fans, they also had a Lord Zedd Super Legends figure, but no Green Ranger. I must have that Green Ranger.

Wal*Mart - Corunna Road; Flint

Wave 2 & 3 Comic Packs. NO single cards. Why is this an issue? This is the Wal*Mart that I always said "time forgot". Just a few days prior they had an ample supply of waves 3R - 5. The 2 wave 6 figures they had I purchased to swap out for the ones I had with less-than-perfect cards. So for them to have nothing all of a sudden means to me that someone walked in and wiped them out. Looks like I have more competition in town. Great. This should make Target Exclusive hunt Fun! Speaking of which...


Target - Miller Road; Flint

Wave 3 Revision mostly. A few wave 5 stragglers (hooded CC, Shipwreck). No exclusives...yet.


Toys'R'Us - Linden Road; Flint

STILL no 5 packs, WTF?! Is the same person that cleaned out Wal*Mart doing the same to TRU? If so, finding the 3 packs should prove interesting.

All in all, looks like there's either a new Hunter in the area, or someone has really stepped up their game. Looks like I'm going to have to wake up earlier in the morning ;)

actually that one had about 5 5packs for about a week and no one was touching them. I got mine from that TRU about 4 days ago and there were two sitting there for a couple days. If you run across any Lady Jayes or Gung Hos in our area, let me know.

I missed you guys and with that said...back to the HUNT! We have TRU and Target exclusives arriving soon. Wave 7 should be making an appearance shortly. Be sharp and swift! Dismissed!!!

[Nathan92]

You know what, I've never even seen wave 5 yet. I can't believe it.

New member here: TRU at Hall and Schoenherr, Lakeside area, had the 5 packs. They had both the Night Watch Troopers and the Snake Eyes vs, Red Ninjas. Can't seem to find single carded figs. What's the deal??? I see straglers here and there. Any body here from Macomb county???

Rumor has it, there's going to be a huge push in April to start promoting the hell out of these figs for the movie. Walmart in particular is going to add a whole lot more pegs allegedly. I think production hasn't caught up and they're holding back figs just to be able to fill those pegs when they become available.

While they obviously aren't making the sales now, the more filled pegs covering the space, the more it will do for marketing. Right now 3 pegs of singles look like any other fig in the aisle. Double or triple that and you sell the line and promote the line even more to the adults who buy for their kids.

I am! The only Joes I haven't found retail are Flint, Lady Jaye, & Flash.
My normal haunts are the Targets on 16 Mile, Van Dyke, John R, Dequindre & Crooks. I've had the most luck with singles at the Van Dyke & Dequindre locations. I've slowed down the past few weeks because I have most of what I want. I also go out of state a lot for work, & try to hit up every Target, TRU, & Walmart along the way.

I too am from macomb county. I don't bother with b&m though, unless it changes to serve the supply and demand.
