Those "Dollar Store" figures are better than the Retaliation ones. Hopefully more solid information will be released on how and when these figures will be available. If a case becomes available, I'd buy one.
I'll buy Retaliation figures based on seeing them in person. No need to pre-order as these will be plentiful and nothing is crucial for my collection. |

I was there on Sunday. I hate crowds and based on the numbers they pull in on Saturdays I stayed home to get some yardwork done. Much more elbow room on Sunday mornings. The show has grown over the years into a premier convention. Definitely the best in New England. I got autographs from Steve Epting, Ed McGuinness, Herb Trimpe, Jim Cheung, Kevin Maguire, Tom Raney, and Ivan Reis.
The show was short on toy deals but it's great for comic collectors. Only one guy had some carded 25th Joes (Artic Snake Eyes, Wraith, BAT, Mutt and Junkyard were some notables). I didn't even bother to ask the price. Most carded figures were overpriced. there was another guy I cleanded out of reactive armor figs and city strike dukes (talked him down to 4 bucks a pop) Herb Trimpe was really cool! he remembered our conversation from Atlanta Joecon, and did a quick sketch for my son...

Lol.....so I received a call that Shock Troopers were stocked at Target at South Bay, it was a God damn blizzard so I wasn't driving that far. I hop into my XTerra and head over to Somerville and voila, there they be. I grab 4 of the 6 and haul butt when a grizzly snow covered man passes me, sees my haul and looks like I just killed his cat. It was another Tanker and I did not know it at the time, got to it before him. I am yet to see this Snow Creature since

I remember that storm, I went out during it as well. It was the day after Christmas in 2010, and I arrived at Stoughton Target just in time to find a fully-stocked endcap waiting for me.

Holy crap, I remember that storm as well. I didn't have any intel at the time, but do recall picking up figs from that wave that day too.
