  1. So, how is everyone sweet talking the Target employees? I have only one Target in my area and they have the ASM2 figures in the stockroom but say they can't sell them until their reset in a couple weeks.

    I don't know if it's a matter of jive, sweet, cahwfee talkin but it just takes that one lone employee who rises above & beyond the usual give a shiii song & dance.....I stopped by the Terget near my work & got lucky, the redshirt cracked open a fresh case for me & I snagged up the droids I was looking for...Aim & Hydra Trooper, she didn't seem to happy about it but still she did make a fat man happy so I'm done w/Caps for now & moving onto Spidey....he's been a bit harder to secure as I just now pulled my head outta my nether region & got the Item # for a lookup......I tried 3 stores today 1 was closing & isn't getting new stock, the other 2 gave me brush off so maybe tomorrow I'll strike plastic gold.....I have methods to follow....Jedi Mind Trick, Flash my Man-Boobs w/a lowcut number, or fake some tears & make a story up about how these figs will save my life.....

  2. Found this at Toy Specialty Shop just before Xmas last week...paid $40 for him it was good enough considering how expensive they really are nowadays

    Then last week I ordered some more stuff from amazon & snagged up the Destroyer....he has limited Articulation but I just love the look of this guy...he's grown on me & I was able to add-on a couple of extra figs due to the after xmas clearance clarence sale.....I picked up MU Colossus, Iron Spider & Black & Blue Ironman....they were almost $3 bux apiece w/the add-on deal....cept Punisher I had to pay $7 for him.....

  3. Stan Lee?! Seriously?! Horrible idea. May as well make BAFs of the damn interns at Marvel.

     

    tarot is surely correct about the larger scale figures being off the table, but setting that aside...SURTUR.

    :laugh::laugh::laugh:

    Damn....Surtur is an awesome idea....I need my nerd-badge revoked I haven't read comics in years & since my collection is somebody else's now I haven't been able to read up on anything......nothing upstairs but Cobwebs & memories of reading comics at one time.....I forgot alllll about Surtur.....

  4.  

    I say this to people but forget the 16" baf FOR A LONG WHILE. the toy economy can't support them at the moment.

    1. Thanos
    2. Lockjaw
    3. Kree Sentry
    4. Nimrod

    I forgot allll about Nimrod & Sauron.....great picks.....Four Horseman pack would be coolio too

  5. Just joined the group and I want to thank those that posted the Target DCPI for the Cap Legends. I was able to find a complete case on Saturday at one of my local Targets in Laredo, TX. I bought the whole case and sold the duplicates to a friend in town who also collects. Don't worry I sold them to him at retail, I'm not a scalper. Not to brag but in the attempt to find another Cap case for the same friend at the other local Target I did a search for the New Spiderman Legends on one of the price scanners and luckily they had a case in stock. Thanks to Marvelous News and all its members because I also became aware of the Target DCPI for that wave on this site. I am happy to say that I was able to find both Infinite Series waves for the Captain America and Spiderman Legends movie line in the same city. Laredo only has two Targets and is not that big of a city compared to other cities in Texas.

  6. I saw the new 3.75 Cap figs.....I was under-whelmed by them.....I gotta have another look at em'....I'm kinda havin to choose which line I'm gonna go w/as the holidays have left my wallet & Credit cards hemorrhaging & so far the 6" line is winning hands down.....I've seen 3 A-bombs at target but no sign atall of Abomination....my gf's son gave me Abomination for Xmas, Crom bless him.....I haven't even spotted "Black Knight" but I'm holding onto hope for him...at least I snagged up Cloak & Dagger....Cloak from TRU & Dagger from Target......Walmart-nada, I even snagged up a FF Spider man but would've preferred Brown Bag Spiderman but I'm lucky I just found something.....oh & I finally found Kraven the other day too.....good luck hunters

  7. Okay I hit 2 Tergets today & at one store I showed the guy my receipt from when I purchased the 3 figs I found....redshirt looked it up, viola there's a few in the back......he goes in the back & then a few minutes later calls one of the other employees near me to ask what I'm looking for.....I tell him the Green Guy or the Yellow Guy (haha) or both....he then tells me "we have 6 Captain Murricas & one Hydra Agent".....the guy relating this to me even says "dude why don't you just bring them all out?"....I ask them why all the mystery too? so the guy in the back brings me out Red Skull & I say "no Dice man" I have that one already....the other guy says you might want to check back after the toy reset in a bout a week or two.....So I thank them & start to wander off....the guy who brought up the Red Skull want's to know what's so special about the Green & Yellow guys & I just shrug....anyway....I'm a conspiracy guy & I used to work retail....I worked at TRU for a lil bit & dudes would hook me up w/figs I was looking for specially cause I worked there, it was just common courtesy...granted I never thought about re-selling stuff....but it seems kinda odd they would pack 6 Caps & one Red Skull in a case?? I know Cap is the big show & he will be overpacked at a nauseating rate....buttt cmon maann...what happened to the rest of the missing figs...its the man on the grassy knoll buying them up I just know it.....all right tomorrow I'm hoping to get lucky at the terget near my workplace....oh & incidentally the other Target the redshirt asked me why I wanted another figure if I had purchased 3 already...& then asked me if I brought the products w/me??....I brought the receipt w/the item# on it.....he just told me check the aisle again I prolly missed them.....he's crawling up the step-stool to store manager I feel, I thanked him for his time & apathy.....

  8. So far at one Terget yesterday I was able to snag up Zemo, Red Skull & New & Improved Cap.....I left behind 40's Cap....had to conserve some $ cause I needs some Aim & Hydra soldiers in mah life right now.....speaking of which they're nowhere to be found so I know its gonna be a pain in my a@$ to find these but maybe for now its just to early for the release date.....I'm kinda hopin that the price won't climb on these figs at retail.....I haven't checked Evilbay yet but I'm sure the "sellers" have been feeding on the aisles already......I went by at least 12 Tergets in the last 4 days & only 1 store had these on the shelves so I'm hoping the figs just haven't been put out yet....& great find Americaah, its a 50/50 to see if an employee will bust open an case for lil big me....usually they don't & they send me 10 miles down the road to some other Location that has em.....but that never really pans out for me....so I'm going back to work after the lonnnng holiday so I'll check around my work area tomorrow.....crossing my fingers & toes to find some EraserHeads & Green Guys....

  9. Stopped by a local Terget nadda there but the Cap A figs are on sale, whewww! (sarcastic whew) only a dollar less for all 3 3/4 figs. Buttt I did stop by the Ross and found a War Maahcheen (Iron Man 2) w/removable heads-Rhodie/cyborg & reg IM head, the paint job is slightly off greenish gray its got four different languages in on packaging sooo its exotic. I saw the same WM at Tuesday morning for 6 bux but at Ross it was 5! kewl so I hadda snag him up. On the back of the card were the rest of figs for that wave, they looked very awkward and overly cartoon especially Whiplash, so the ToY GoDs were good to me....
