Yeah, I have yet to see Sif or King Laufey. I don't want them but I will grab them if folks here want them. I have 2 King Lokis. Only looking to for Black Destroyers.

If I see another destroyer in the wild, i'll let you know

Dedham TRU got in another case of wave 3 joes (with Renegades Storm Shadow, Techno vipers, etc.) Someone else grabbed the SS, but I could care less- I have 3 already.

Also, there are at least 3 COMPLETE CASES of the lost wave of SW figures, and by that I mean on both vintage cards and blue cards. I think I saw 4-5 vaders, leias, jar jars, and troopers galore. They also had 9 sets of Ewoks and 9 sets of Yavin pilots. Apparently Hasbro must have wised up that these would be big sellers, but I wasn't expecting nearly this many of them. The sleazy bastards also jacked the price up from $39.99 to $43.99.

I love how I paid $99.99 for the regular boxed AT-AT in July of 2010, and then a week after I bought it, they restocked it- this time for $109.99. Now the EXACT same AT-AT in the SAME normal (non-vintage) box is $143.99.

That's right, you read that correctly. Somehow, the AT-AT went up FORTY FOUR DOLLARS in 2 years, almost 150% of its original cost. And at the same normal retail store.

Whoa....was tempted back when they were 100 but 145.00......that is waaaaay too much. That must be a jackup with the hope of putting it to a normal 115 for Christmas and making it feel like a "steal". Thank God I haven't gotten into Star Wars with the Joe lull.

That's because ToysRus is playing the ol' see how far we can raise the prices until people stop buying stuff game. They're looking for the maximum prices they can sell their items at, regardless of what the suggested price is. Fuckers.

Also, how does Dedham keep getting wave 3? Bring that down my way.

Does anyone need any of the glow-in-the-dark Loki and Thor figures or the MU purple/blue sentinel?
