I was thinking last night if we hit the stores like a swat team, we could buy the items we need, everyone gets what they need, and take the extras back...?? Just an idea that would probably never work, but had to much time on my hands last night....

More coordination between us makes sense, especially if we're talking about meeting up and trading. I think if we were able to designate certain zones that we would cover that might work.

Today I found the revision wave with Flint, SE V2, BA CC, Snow Job at the Wal-Mart on 40th St. and Thomas. There was no Flint. I bought SE for my son. I was surprised to find anything new since the pegs are getting crammed there. But they've been getting new figures at least once a week.

I also spotted a Major Bludd at the Fry's Mkt Place on Tatum and Shea.

No wave 10s on my Joe run today but I did get the Snake Eyes w/ Timber and Armored CC revisions along with the Firebat and FANG/CLAW vehicles.

DANG!!! The Claw and Fang are out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm gonna have to do some hunting tonight!!!

[Roadblock Recall]

Yes, it appears they are out. I found this guy at Dysart Walmart today. They didn't have any fang/claw packs though.



And you know what? The head isn't so bad. I don't think Gung-Ho when I look at it. It actually looks like Leatherneck to me! The hat seems like they rounded it more and took away gung-ho's sharp corners of the hat.

And I'm not complaining, but is it right for you to go to the store, pick up a figure for say, 7 bucks. Come here and put it on the board for 11? I look at it as saving gas money, whatever, but I know on Rebelscum.com you can't put figures that are currently at retail on the boards for more than retail. I was curious about that, I just read a thread on there where a guy got flak from a lot of people because he asked over retail price for a figure.

Thats still scalping to me. I'd rather you leave it on the peg and at least give me a chance of finding it for $7. Better yet, stashing is a great idea! You can then let everyone on the board know you have a stash at Walmart X street/x road. And the first person that expresses and interest, you can private message them the location.

I know I'm new to Hisstank but I am a regular over in the AZ Rebelscum board. I've gotten to know a lot of members over there and we've had group lunches to get to know eachother and trade. We've even organized group trips to Comic Con the last two years. I think everyone over there does not think highly of scalpers and we try to help eachother out, by picking stuff up for others, or stashing it. Most of us have each others phone numbers and can call to give a heads up when new product has been found. I just recently became aware of this forum and was suprised to see how active the AZ thread is. I'm hoping this is or will become as helpful a place as the RS group. I usually check at least one Target, Walmart and TRU daily but you can't be everywhere at once.

I too am interest in wave 10 and the new vehicles. I'm taking my girlfriend out tonight but hopefully I can hunt in the morning.
