I feel your pain....
It's fun going out to the stores to see if they have anything new but here in Maryland we have scalpers,stealers and repackers galore. Since Hasbro has stepped up by giving us three good waves back to back with six good comic packs and vehicles the hysteria around collecting these joes are phenomenal... I ALWAYS have luck finding new things early Monday mornings after I drop my girlfriend off at work around 8:00 - 9:30. The last two times I simply was fortunate to find things when I make my rounds to about four or five Targets, TRUs and Wal-Marts. NEVER look for figures after work or after 2:00. There are fools out here that hit the stores when they open seven days a week and buy everything new and sell it on ebay a.k.a Scalpers. Most of us tankers have resorted to hasbrotoyshop and bbts for sales while I personally have slowed down on hunting and willing to wait another two or three months for waves 11 to 13 to flood the aisles at a decent price. |

Airborne is a peg warmer in KC, I have 6 now and have left 10 or more behind. I saw 3 cases of Resolute figures at 9pm on the 26th. Walmart isn't getting anything new, but they are clogged with a 100 of the older waves like Snow Serpent, BBQ, etc. Target has all the new stuff and they have it every time I stop in there before work at 9pm. Maybe Target stocks just prior to close or something like that. All I know is the last 6wks has been Joe overload.
