new stuff found

[big friggin darth]

Left a generic title on the thread -

Target had all of the new stuff out. Pretty cool to see but the tools only put out 1 case of TVC. No Cloud Car in the vehicle case either, WTF is up with that.

Anyway got a Boba Fett, can wait on anything else.

Boba still eludes me,he's the only one i really want.I saw the new AT-AT,it looks pretty cool,its heavy.Just don't have the 100 bones for it right now.
Oh wait your in Lee's Summit,thats the Target i looked at.Although Indy Target had alot more Vintage figures,but still no Boba.

[big friggin darth]

If you look at other forums its not encouraging that one case of TVC per store seems to be the norm.The rest of the figures I expect to hang around a while more, but right now all the vintage figures will sell out quick.

[Larsfan28]

Yeah i'm just a casual Star Wars collector anymore,but i collect alot of other crap so i'm always looking.I still have a corner of my mancave devoted to Star Wars

Lee's Summit was sold out this morning. I'm curious to see how long it takes for a restock, since I have little faith in Walmart resetting before next weekend. They look like they're in no hurry.

Looked like the Target in Liberty had nearly a case worth of Vintage figures out this afternoon. The only one I didn't see was Boba Fett. I picked up Luke, Han, another Leia & another 3PO and left the rest. Also picked up the Prince of Persia Alamut Gate Playset for $5 and the A-Team Van for $12.50 on clearance! I figured I could use the Playset with my Indy figures and I'm planning on turning the A-Team van into a custom Fanboys Van! I also went by the Target at Chouteau Trafficway and they only had empty pegs in the SW section.

The Olathe TRU got hit with vintage cases one week and they were gone pretty week. I think they only got in 4 cases and they haven't been re-shipped again. I'm sure with the holiday season soon approaching, more will likely show up.

Finally the Wal-Mart in Gladstone got some new shit in. I got there this morning and there was a bunch of Saga Legends and Clone Wars. There also looked like there was 2 cases of Vintage figures at one point, because there were 2 Bobas. I picked up the only Luke, 3PO and one of the Boba Fetts. The real kicker is that they had 4 pegs for Vintage figures with price tags for $7.00 and 4 pegs for Saga Legends with yellow & red tags that read $4.50. The Clone Wars were marked $7.96. So I grabbed a few Vintage and a couple of troopbuilder Legends figures and when I got to the register they all rang up for $7.96. I told the cashier what the price tags on the shelves said and she walked back to the toys section with me to see for herself. There was another woman there stocking shelves and and she said that the price tags on the pegs were wrong, but they agreed to sell the figures to me at the price on the pegs. So I got 2 Legends Snowtroopers for $4.50 each and a dollar off each of the 3 Vintage figures I bought. Pretty Sweet! Unfortunately, the woman in the Toy Dept. immediately fixed the error. Who knows, maybe there are other Wal-Marts out there with fucked up price tags and you can find a deal. Good luck everybody!

Hit Shawnee Mission Pkwy Walmart today.....nothing new. What the fucking point of having a special "Don't Stock Until Date" if you're not going to stock on that date? Pretty much only looking for Jabba though. He'll show up.

Liberty WM has some new stuff, Vintage and Clone Wars.

[big friggin darth]

Stopped in a couple WM's yesterday and the $7.96 price for CW and TLC was in place. Too bad there was nothing to pick from. I'd like to pick up the IG-88 & Snowtrooper repaints, haven't read anywhere about the 2nd asst of TLC showing up.

And it would be good if Vintage would start being a regular sight at WM. I'm with Gus, these fucking on shelf dates are utter BS if nothing gets put out. Starting to annoy me as much as TRU's fiasco with the EU wave.

Found a vintage Fett at the Ottawa Wal Mart last night, they had a Cloud Car pilot and a General Veers when I left

[Larsfan28]

Found one Vintage Boba Fett at Raymore Wal Mart this morning,they still had most of the others left.Also the Belton Target had a few VTC figures this morning,but no Boba.

[Jedi Jester]

Went to the Mission Target today and they had a bunch of Vintage stuff. They had all the OT minus Fett/Luke. The only Prequel Trilogy piece I remember seeing was Gen G. This question has probably already been asked but, how many of these are actually new?

[Jedi Jester]

Nevermind I just looked it up on RS. Does anyone have the TAC 4-LOM that this is a repack of that they want to sell (loose is fine)?

[O.G.Trilogy]

Didn't know where else to post this. Last night at Wally World I got to looking at the Boba Fett Roleplay Helmet and when I pressed the buttons on the side all the phrases it said were in a goofy Australian accent. Maybe it just sounded that way because the batteries were almost dead or something, but I just thought it was hilarious. Who knew Boba Fett came from the land down under?

[Darth Skywalker]

I havent heard the voice yet on the helmet but I believe its supposed to be Dee Bradley Baker, the voice of the Clones as Boba is more or less a Clone. I know he is doing the voice of Boba Fett in Force Unleashed 2.

Has anyone found a Jodo Kast? I'm looking for two of them.

Hey Dave,
The KM here had them last week. LMK and I'll go by there tomorrow and check again if you want.

K-Mart on Metcalf had about 6-8 of them around 3:00 today (Wednesday). I stashed one of them on the shelf underneath the figures behind some Clone Wars vehicle things.

[dxdave]

Thanks, Pat and Mark/Bryan. I think the last time I went into the K-Mart on Met-Calf was during a drunken stupor and a stop at Denny's on the way home years and years ago.......

Yeah, Pat....pm sent....we can work out a deal with the shipping for a Jodo Kast or two and a difference if any.

Lee's Summit Target had alot of vintage figures this morning,inc. 2 Boba's.Don't know if anybodys still looking for them,or if supply has caught up to demand.

[Gus Hound]

Tons of vintage ESB today. I have the feeling that wave is going to cause peg warming issues for the far superior ROTS and ROTJ waves.

When I saw it Sunday evening it was already down to a few 3-PO's and Dengars. Independence and BS stores are about the same. All the CW figures you never wanted though. They're already filling the empty vintage pegs with CW & Legends, I knew it would happen.

[O.G.Trilogy]

I made the rounds this morning at I-29, Gladstone & Liberty WM's looking for a Saga Legends IG-88. No luck finding IG-88 at any of those places, but I did find a Vintage Boba Fett hidden behind some stuff on the bottom shelf. So I stuck him right in front on one of the Vintage pegs. Big Friggin' Darth is right though, In true Hasbro fashion the pegs are being overwhelmed by Saga Legends & Clone Wars figures. I guess we'll be seeing Ewok Throne 3PO & the grey armored Clone Wars Cop for many months to come.

[dxdave]

3rd quarter is winding down and the Saga Legends waves are shipping in quantities again, too. More of the same crap for the kiddies to have at Xmas, forget the collectors. I would imagine a push of the new stuff will come and we will have our elusive wave again that we will all be wanting in 2011 and hunting for with hiked up Ebay prices. Same ol', same ol'.
