So at 5:00 I did Pulse, Walmart, then Target in that order. Scored the deluxe snake eyes and Zartan from pulse, rather quickly and seamlessly. Picked up two Scarlett's from Walmart.com next (ships next year? WTF). Then hit Target and of course the Viper and firefly were gone by then, because F Target. Oh well, I did pretty well and I'm happy with what I was show to preorder.
Slim pickings in the actual stores today. I hit 3 Walgreens, 3 targets, 2 Ross, 1 GameStop, and 1 Walmart. Nothing good in GameStop or Ross or Walmart. One wants had a couple Classified counts commanders, nothing at the other 2 Walgreens. One of the three targets had all those Galaxy edge droids, but I already have them. It also had 50% off vintage collection....syke, they all scan full price. Grrrr, not a Target fan today. Awesome man, glad to hear it. Seems like fate you were making brisket, because that is probably what that sauce is best on.

Also, I’ve used REN Scarlett arms on my Lady Jaye custom before, and sometimes the choices are simply limited. We have to make do, or simply do without.

Morning guys! Man I slept in late. Managed to score a Zartan and Infantry trooper yesterday. I don’t care too much for the new retro line but when I see them in stores I’ll buy them like I did with retro SE. Target was of course sold out so I didn’t get anything there

If you’re being serious, I’m sorry that came across as such. You made it work on your custom, and I thought I had acknowledged that—but those initial small/grainier photos of the new Scarlett didn’t make that torso look like a very good choice.

Ha...
We put higher standards on Hasbro because they have the ability to create NEW molds; hence the complaints when something seems forced. I don’t complain much at all, especially in this scenario, where I really AM happy with getting 4” offerings alongside 6”. I give the 4” offerings so far a B+ and I could stretch it to an A-, knowing the bulk of the budget is going to 6”. Side note: I’m really curious to see a shrunken Classified Duke head on their new offering; I think it has potential.

I know several members of the LNC are sitting out the classified line... For various reasons, which is fine. But that Zartan figure is nice (as is snake eyes). I think, if you pass on Zartan now, you may regret it a few years down the road. Just saying.....

I feel like i will regret not getting them for sure. I'll have to get Zartan since he is one of my favs....the only one I have is Gung-Ho and I'm just like ugh I'll go broke for sure but some of these look really nice. I'll pick up Beachhead if I see him. I wanted to go straight good guys, so now I guess good guy and the Noks. Love me some Dreadnoks. When wee Itch played Joes, the Dradnoks were badasses like in the comics not foils like the cartoon.

I’m passing, buuut...you may be very well right. Did you guys know that Zartan’s skin will change color in the sunlight like the original?!
