guys listen to this,i went to wally world and to my surprise,there they were,wave 9 in all their glory,this particular store has been barren for at least a month,well,i actually found a bat and snow serpy,but i decide on the bat,but one problem,stupid me forgot my money at home,i live 5 minutes from the store,so,i hid the bat only, leaving the rest on the pegs,run home,grab the loot and bolt right back up there,and they were ALL gone,except for my hidden bat,wow,these things are going like crazy,although,as i was looking through the pegs i noticed a guy come around the corner,spot me and turn right back around over to the hulk stuff or whatever was in the next aisle over,i suspect he was the one to clean house when i left,so a good score for the two of us,but again,wow,has anyone else seen this?

Yeah...I scoped out 4 walmarts today...had a meeting in Delaware and drove from salisbury md, to milford, De and hit all the marts in between....no bats and one serp....The walmart in Milford, had all the boxes being unpacked on the floor and I found 4 cases of Wave 5 2008....and guess what....they were put back under the celephane..spelling? and each case was missing TWO figures...Hmmmm smalled like an inside job...when I asked the lady about them, she said they were probably opened up last night, cause that is how she found them...LOL... I am kinda bothered by it, but you gotta figure...that's the perfect job if you are a collector...dont worry...I am scanning the Ebay waves for serpents and bats sold out of the Delaware area...LOL...

probably cuz people are selling them on ebay for OTT prices-and apart from trading here its my only way to buy them :(

How is it people are seeing Torpedo peg warming and I have never even seen one on a shelf. Lame.

[EricCamper]

Oh....ok....is torpedo wave 8....he isnt even on the back....confused...Reissue?

Selling these on ebay just doesnt seem worth it to me.atleast from a nonreseller point of view.
lets see. cost of bat from wally world.i'll use my wm price. 6.96.so call it 7.50.
cost to list on ebay 35 cents?
time to take pics.i'd call it a dollar.
final value fee. seems the bat is around 10-12 bucks now.so about another 1.00+
gas to store,gas to PO. call it 2 bucks.add in line time(surprised sellers arent charging for that yet)
looks like abunch of BS to make a dollar or two.


cant wait for wave 10 and the great BAT hype of 08 to die.

wild bill and torpedo are rereleased in wave 9 on comic cards
