I like your thinking Doc.  There have been no changes here in NW Indiana, in Walmart, Target, Meijer, or Toys R Us.  I'm looking for only a couple of figures, because for the most part, I'm out of the figure collecting business, but they should have been released LONG ago for cryin out loud.  I have no need for the Spacetrooper, Han or Luke in Stormtrooper disguise, or ROTS Anakin or Obi-Wan.

Well, here we are stuck with Yarna's & Ak Rev's in the Legacy line and C3POs and IG-86's in CW.  Oh, and the CW pegs were almost empty 3 days ago.  Now, DanOfTheDead over on Yak/RS has given me an idea of how to (ab)use those CW 3POs and I might could use ONE Yarna to go along with them - but C'MON!!!  Do you refuse to stock an artist's newest CD just because you still have some of his old stuff on the shelf?

JTA has a blurb up about Walmart suddenly jacking up the price of the CW 2-packs to $16.97. Yikes! That's more than buying 2 figures individually!

WTF would prompt an arbitrary hike like that? I got mine for around $12 each when they first came out.

Bastages!

[Update: when I made rounds earlier today all the WM 2 packs were still priced at $12.96 so not sure what's up with the JTA report]

I was at the local Walmart here in Green Bay and the 2 packs were still 12.97, nothing new as I was hoping for the ATST, maybe tomorrow, I'll hit it early since the toy manager or whatever she is called is there and is usually very helpfull.

Uh.... here we sold out of two packs within 2 days of putting them out. I got one of each ;).
And they had the new CW wave out Wednesday. I didnt get Luminara, but did get Argyus and a Spacesuit Obi Wan for my son.
No new comic packs or ships.
They did have the BAD wave with Holo Sidius and Rum Sleg and Clegg Holdfast and the Jawa and The Gungan Warrior and Queen Padme figs making the L8-L9 droid, which I had to get.
No real complaints about the figs, and they are opened already.

Is that the Jawa with Security Droid??  I want to get one of those, too.  So, I guess about half this wave?  Rum, Jawa, and Clegg - as I have the mutterings of an idea for the Clegg figure...

They repacked that one??  Excellent!  I only have two tredwells... or is it three?  But another shot at a tredwell with a new BAD part - that's a sure bet I'll get a new BAD part!

Found some of those the other day at a Walmart here in Mo but I have heard that cw wave 7 has been found here in Mo, also.
I too, am still hunting.

To quote the late great Mitch Hedberg, "Dude, you got to let me know"  ;D

Which ones did you find?

I hit 3 WM's and a Target at lunch and there were none. Their pegs are still bloated with the old stuff, and it's even worse now since they've condensed the space to one vertical row for CW figs.

I've got at least 3 more Wally's scheduled for tonight and after work, so we'll see.


Ahhh, Mitch. . . .we miss ya brother.



Toy report incoming. . .
