With the Pats getting smoked, I decided to end my misery in exchange for a little joy and I went and picked it up tonight.

Moral of the story... if someone can't help you with a telzon, call ahead and have the front desk pull it for you.

Yeah i just went to someone with one of the gun things. I just gave him a piece of paper with the dcpi, told him i called earlier, and off he went out back. A few mins later he came back with two of em fresh in the box. The computer said they had 17 in the back fyi. So just go to the Danvers store they def should have at least 16 in stock.

Sooooooo.... Ultimate Battle Pack story at Target.
Yesterday I called Millbury Target 1st thing in the morning. The guest desk Girl calls the stock & they say they have 7. I asked if she could hold one, she says yes, & I tell her I'll be there in an hour.
When I arrive I go to the desk & the rollypolly sharp teethed girl tells me that 2 minutes after I called that the stockroom called her back & said they could not release them untill 11/23. I'm like are you serious I just drove all the way here, she apologized & said that their was nothing they could do. Mad that I had lost out to a presale at the other Target the day before, I left & stormed down to Worcester Target, put on my best face, & sweet talked the Sevice Desk woman there with the DCPI & she said they had 1 in back & they would go get it & bring it to the desk for me... 10 minutes later and...
BEHOLD!!



So 2 different days 2 losses & 3 Targets but I got my pack... ended the day with DIR EN GREY concert & signing in NYC... brutally AWESOME!!

Well the Kmart in north attleboro has a whole bunch of new vehicle packs and a few figures. I really wanted to buy the AWE with leatherneck but I was 4$ short. I'm pretty angry.

Gobbled a battle pack at Target in Watertown, but if you want one you have to ask for it(they have many in their warehouse but won't bring them to the shelves...too big, take up too much space). Got it the next day, the dude was very helpful. The tank looks like the old one, keeping mine closed for display.

Target Plainville has a case of the new vehicles out... Firebat, Brown AWE Striker and Fang/CLAW all present and accounted for at $17.59 a piece.

Also, check your Kohls for the latest comic packs... nothing new in Milford (they had the last wave), but the East Walpole (Mall) store had two cases worth out... 4 full sets... picked up a set for myself, left the rest. They're priced 12.99 but there must be a 20% off sale because they rang up $10.39 a piece, which was fine by me.

Got the other two new comic packs today at Target. They had the Awe Striker on the shelf, and more vehicles in the back, which led me to ask them to check for the Fang/Claw, as I showed them the picture on the back, they refused, I got into a HUGE argument with them! It was actually kinda fun. I guess they've never heard the phrase "the customer is always right?" They claimed they cant check the back even if it says they are in stock on the scanner. My point to them was, why have a sign that reads need help finding something? and a phone that helps you find an associate, if they cant help you find what you need. Anyways, Target in Danvers kinda sucks.

Saw the Ultimate Battle Pack on the shelf at the Target on Lincoln St in Worcester but I passed. I really don't know if I can justify paying 63 bucks for this. I've broken it down that... yes, I would pay about 25-30 for the Mobat with Steeler, 7 for Short Fuze and 7 for the Cobra driver. I like the Trouble Bubble and kind of like the HISS tank but I mean, come on, how many of those do I need?

I'll probably end up getting it... I just wish there wasn't so much rehashed crap in it. I'd rather a BAT over Destro... if they made that one change I'd probably feel different...

Also... the craziest thing I saw on the night... went to That's Entertainment in Worcester and they had a HUGE amount of vintage vehicles in the box. Lots of Tiger Force stuff. Tiger Cat, Tiger Shark, Tiger Paw even a Tiger Fly. They were all in the $40 range except the Tiger Fly was closer to $100. They literally had a crapload of other stuff too, in and out of the box. Worth checking out...

What's That's Entertainment? A collector store?
