man i baught a cadillac sts in 2006 and paid 11,500 for it, i live in flint and drove to detroit in dearborn heights to pick it up, well the guy totally shafted me because like a week after having it the whole engine seized up and went to shit, the electrical system in my car where the alternator charges your battery is screwed and my car wouldnt start again. there was 5 tv's in the car and whoever hooked them up was a idiot and didnt do it right so i had to take them all out to figure out why i was getting shorts. anyway i got ripped off for about 5 grand, kinda like being stolen from in the sense the guy lied to me about everything in the car. i had to replace everything and after labor and parts my 98 sts is now worth close to 20 thousand dollars, atleast thats what ive invested into it. i called the guy and he told me his wife had poured sugar into the gas tank but the macanic who fixed my car said that if sugar would of been pored in the car would of never started in the first place so who knows what originally happened to my car, all i can say is there is some shady people out there.

Had another good day of finds. Went to the Wal-Mart on Court Street and they had waves 6 and 7 of the comic packs and the new wave of vehicles. I picked up a Beachead and Mainframe and a Gung-Ho and Cobra Commander and also the Water Mocassin with Copperhead. They still had the Sky Hawk with Lift Ticket, 2 IG and Viper sets, 1 Hard Master and Snake Eyes, and 1 Gung Ho and Cobra Commander. For anyone out there who collects Star Wars they had many Legacy wave 4 figures and wave 3 of the Clone Wars. They did not have any Assaj Ventress', but they did have two Commander Cody's.

I picked up a Ghost Hawk & a "Water Mocassin" in Indiana today

I did find the following on my way home:

Coldwater Walmart: IG/Viper COmic Pack, Deep6/Rock & Roll CP, & Beachhead/Mainframe CP.

Jackson Walmart: full set of Wave 10, & ASA & POD DVD set's

I gave into my inner compulsive toy hunter and ran out to the Lake Lansing WM and Okemos Target, WM, TRU and Meijer (whaaaat?) Only sign of new stuff was at Okemos Target, which had 2 Cobra Flints. Hopefully it was Watson or somebody else here who scored the other wave 11 figs.

yeah it was me...i had to snag up the last eel. i think they are going to be pretty hot since it was replaced in the rev. case.

Monroe, MI Walmart had no new vehicles/figures still. Hitting Target again tomorrow, nabbing any Eels left.

Okay update time.

Just got back, it's just about 1am. Walmarts in Livonia and Canton have nothing new to stock Joe wise form their trucks. This isn't cool.

I went out this afternoon and found that the Walmart in Commerce Twp. had wave 11 cases. No Airborne figures.

Target stores in Commerce Twp. also had wave 11. Again, no Airborne. In fact each store I went to today that had wave 11 on it's shelf, did not have any Airborne figures. What gives? I did finally snag a Fang/Claw pack there.

Target in Livonia at 8mile was out completely for single Joes. Now have a good bit of Battle Packs warming shelves.

Toys R Us in Westland was JAMMED full of wave 10. An army of B.A.T.S. was present. NO series 2 SRO 3 packs. Also had DCU 2 packs.

TRU in Novi didn't have much at all. No wave 10 even.

TRU in Livonia was weak too. Nothing good at all.

May go out tomorrow, but I don't know. :(

Target in Okemos had 3 snow serpents, two pilot scarletts,a croc master,and a wraith.
Walmart had nothing new but should have new vehicles in soon there wasn't any.
Toysrus was a waste of time ,and only 2 pegs of single figs, no vehicles,and and the old sro sets

I don't even bother with toys r us or meijer anymore, they are both equally worthless
