Two days ago, my youngest brother lost a tooth (while he was sleeping). He woke up yesterday w/ $10.00 under his pillow. We were walking through the store, and my dad said, "out of the goodness of my heart, I'm giving you $5.00." My middle brother and I were both exited. So, we went to Walmart, expecting to see the wave w/ City Strike Duke, Snake Eyes, Desert Viper, ect.
The only toys Walmart had were wave 1-3 figs. My brother who lost the tooth had been looking forward to getting Night Adder and another Joe, but to his disappointment...no NA. :( So, I searched through the HUGE piles of Joes, and he was very upset. Finally, I gave him The Doctor and Arctic "Dead" Storm Shadow. He was hesitant. So, my middle brother found a normal Snake Eyes. He told my youngest brother that he could reinact the final ninja battle scene. My brother accepted. He and my dad walked away, leaving me and my middle brother to search. I found, surprisingly, a Paris Pursuit Baroness. So, I gave that to my very excited middle brother, and got myself The Doctor. So, I didn't get what I was expecting, but it was still SWEET. And I have to say, The Doctor is cool. Except for when his hair falls off.

Nice find! PP Baroness is an awesome figure. I just wish you could take off her glasses like the AoP Baroness.
