Well, there isn't much going on really. Most of the Family Dollars have been hit, and all the B.A.T.s are gone. Some of the stores have some Snow Serpents/Armored CC/Tripwire/Bazookas/Paravipers though if those float your boat. There are no wave 13s at any store.
I haven't found any of the Lego minifigures in town. TJ Maxx/Marshalls did get some wave 9 figures, but no clear wraith. They have a lot of comic packs though. Target restocked on the deluxe figures, and they have a ton of Storm Shadow w/ motorcycle, and Neo-Viper w/ Snake Armor. They have absolutely no single figures left, unless they got a freak shipment in on Saturday (I checked Friday afternoon). No new Iron Man 2 figures anywhere. Target is supposed to "refresh" their toys this coming week. Is there anything you're looking for? Oh, the Avatar: The Last Airbender toys are out at Target/TRU. I passed, but some of them look pretty good. EDIT: I also got the Fantasy Flight Games version LOTR board game at the Goodwill store for $5. That's a $100 game, booya!

not looking for anything really in particular, just some more cheap fodder and maybe something just different. I know TRU had the A-Team, New Batman figs (Two Face, Batman, Joker, etc), Prince of Persia figs as well as some others. I just ordered the new joes but Would love to find Alley Viper and maybe some of the new wave of Marvel Universe as well as Whiplash from IM2. Guess just ready for some new stuff and some deals you know
I haven't been able to talk myself into the A-Team, or PoP figures. I have a hard enough time keeping up with Joes/Star Wars/Transformers/Marvel. I'm gonna go back to Family Dollar tomorrow, and talk to one of the managers to see if they will order me a couple of cases of wave 13. I'm also going to talk to my uncle to see if he can order them at his Dollar General store. |

Well, I have NOT checked Big Lots this week, but the last time I was there I picked up one of those Secret Saturday jets. My plan is to paint it, and put Joes in it. I know it will fit one, but I hear it'll fit up to two.

I'd be interested in a case or 2. thanks again. and ohhh I'll be out hitting stores this week, and a friend said his wife found 2 clear wraiths at the TJ Maxx she works at and asked her to set them aside for me. If one card is mint I'll pack it up and send it out to you. |

some TJ Maxx in b'ham. I think over by Carrabba's Italian grill. I may be wrong of the exact location but in that general area. I'm not really good with directions but once I been to a place I can drive there with no problem.

well did my run today after work since I needed to go to Sam's and get more cleaning supplies. went by the TJ Maxx on Westbury Square (is there another one?) and found a wraith, B.A.T. and picked up Iron grenadier/Viper 2pack (needed some parts). Wraith wasn't clear one but still not too bad I guess. Didn't see nada I needed at either Target or WMs. Lots of Toy Story and PoP though

Have any of you guys tried Marshall's? I haven't been there since they got in the net exclusive Transformers classics. Dragstrip/Overkill/Optimus Prime and Megatron boxes.
I know they're kind of like Ross/TJ Maxx and Tuesday morning. Maybe they have some GI Joe items. I know I'm kicking myself for NOT getting that Defense of Cobra Island set from Ross's in Decatur now. If any of you guys see another set let me know. I want a few figures out of it for customs and whatnot. On a side note. I went to a Walmart the other day and found some intersting vehicles I thought about picking up to fix up and wanted some opinions. !st I found an atv looking AVATAR vehicle for $13 clearance that looked kind of like something I could use for a Merc set I'm currently working on. Also I found some spiffy looking The Corps vehicles. One I can only decrive as a hybrid Hum-v/Assault vehicle cast in tanish plastic, and another was a bitchin looking tank that would have to have some serious inner modding to properly have Joes ride in and stand in, there is basically no seats or stands for them. They were both $13, I also seen a helicopter but it really didn't do anything for me. My question is would these 3 vehicles be good to buy/mod and paint up real nice or are they a pass-on-by type toy and I should not give them another thought.

Thanks http://saturdaymorningcentral.com/wp...atar_toys2.jpg got my 2 year old the Corps tanish hum-v/assault vehicle you mentioned Google Image Result for http://www.smythstoys.com/product_images/G13229_S.jpg after ripping the missles off so he could play with it, it is still in one piece after his beatings lol, however it has seats so it may not be the one you are talking about but it was on clearance for $5 and he picked it up and wanted it so I couldn't say no. He puts his corps guys and cobra commander in it and pushes it down the hall lol kinda fun actually Last edited by nort; 06-20-2010 at 06:32 PM.. |
