GO GET THEM!!!!!!!

2 sets. Probably no overstock either.

Well I guess if every Target in the Louisville area gets 2 sets every week then that means that with 6 area targets, 12 fans per week can get a complete Wave 2. Of course there are hundreds of fans in the area so some of us are simply f@cked.

Thanks, Hasbro.

This kind of weak distribution may finally push this 34 year old to end his decades of collecting. It just ain't fun any more.

The MP's were on an end cap on the back side of the Joe/Wrestling Figure aisle, near the board games. There's maybe 10 or so Primes and only the three Starscreams. I bought two and handed the other over to a guy who was digging around in the Movie and Primus Figures. I don't know that he bought it though. But yeah they're finally around this area.

My Wave 2 case came in from BBTS yesterday, I have to assume its a new batch of figures given the production numbers [72532], the Beachhead in there did have the new crotch piece.

It might be even less than that, man. I was at the Clarksville Target, Thursday morning. They had the 2 usual shelf-warmers, SE and SS, a Buzzer and Serpentor. With only having 1 each of SE and SS, I deduce they only got 1 case.

It's funny how the distribution works nowadays compared to the 80's when a case of Joes was 32 figs.

At least with the MP Starscream out, I feel better about having to get up early in the morning and having something to look for other than Joes.

Well, I got some news today. I went to Walmart on Shelbyville Rd. on my lunch break. I saw empty pegs as usual, but I finally got to talk to the head of the toy department. She told me that she placed an order a month ago and still haven't received it yet, bummer! The good news is the size of the order........240 figures! = 30 cases!!!!!! She said she's gonna do a Joe display out in the floor area instead of the isle.

They're coming guys, just need to be patient!

Well I'll be darned if i didn't find Lady Jaye, Serpentor and Beach Head @ the Dixie target this evening after work. I thinks God himself may tire of my bitching sometimes and throw me a bone.

On a down note- my first 25th Anniversary casualty of war. Right after opening my one and only Zartan, his arm broke right off when i had the audacity to attemt to pose it. Grrrr like little Toybiz Marvel Legends... Oh well, only trouble I've had so far. But now I needta findem again...:eek: :(
