**Son of Keldor** · May 1, 2005, 04:17pm

quick question for jimmy or darrel. is tc a black guy? (the guy that darrell always talks about w/ the dvd's) b/c i think i was talking w/ him 2 toy con this morning???

=)

**JimmyPSHayes** · May 1, 2005, 04:18pm

Dennis-I saw a new classic Superstars 3-pack today. At least it was new to me. It have Brett Hart,the Rock and Shawn Michaels. Let me know if you want one and I can grab one for you!
-Why is it that only Leo can find new Star Wars figures? I found NOTHING today!
SOK-Yes,he is. He has a shaved head and a gotee is is short(ish). He's shorter than me anyway. How was toycon?

**Son of Keldor** · May 1, 2005, 04:50pm

jimmy- i hope things go ok for you buddy!

toy con was good if you liked star wars, hot wheels, & marvel legends. the prices for new star wars figs weren't bad w/ the lowest being $8 and the highest $12. marvel chase figs were going for $15 to $25 depending on the fig. that guy tc had alot of stuff but his prices are way out there, i mean $100 for a c3 vader, $100 for dark phoenix,
$40 for namor or deadpool, but he did have the spectreman tv series i've been looking for 4 like forever so i might pick that up from him next time around. i asked him if he knew darrel and he was baffled???

i thought they were homies???

NC had its OWN toy show today that I just happened to stumble into! I had a pretty good haul on my toy run today:

First off, proving that fat people like me can be heroes too, I found the counterpart to my chunky Superman -- fat Robin!

Next up, something I picked up especially for Darrell:

Next, podunk Target get a boatload of the new figs in -- I grabbed 5 (4 clone commanders and 1 pilot dude), but there were at least 10 more of the clone commander and the pilot guy:

Next, the new Target Exclusive Clone Trooper:

You may want to grab them -- these were the only two left out of all the Targets in my area (like 7 Targets). I managed to grab these two seconds before another guy saw them. He tried to say 1 per person, but my friend (who hates toys) said, "The other is for me!"

Bwa ha ha..

Hope you guys had good hauls today too!!

-Dan

**Son of Keldor** · May 1, 2005, 08:59pm

haha! that guy was probably ****ed dan! oh well you snooze you lose.

skullface- any word on these babies yet???

=)

**air7walk** · May 1, 2005, 09:06pm

He was like, "HEY, where'd you get those? I need one!" I said, "I got the last two.."

yeah, he was mad

I'm guessing the clone commanders and clone pilot aren't that hard to find anymore, right? I figured I'd yank a few off the shelves because I know some peeps that are looking for them..

**Son of Keldor** · May 1, 2005, 09:25pm

yeah like me right?

=)

**JimmyPSHayes** · May 1, 2005, 11:35pm

Hey gang-Mysterio from Spidey Classics is out! If you see it, please grab one for me!

**Son of Keldor** · May 2, 2005, 07:59am

damn it i saw a bunch of them yesterday for like $8 i coulda grabbed you one but i'm sure brad could hook you up!

=)

**Skullface** · May 2, 2005, 01:10pm

I'm pretty sure it'll be a while before we get any Mysterio cases in stock. We just started carrying the regular Spidey Classics cases again, and the case we got last week was a Sandman/Venom/Lizard case. With all the Spideys in the assortment, I'm sure it'll be a while before they sell down enough to where we get re-stocked. But I'll keep my eyes open for ya! We still carry the seperate villains-only cases, but they are still the 1st assortment w/Ultimate Rhino, Scorpion, Ultimate Lizard, Carnage & *I think* Morbius.

I haven't been at work since Thursday evening, so I'll try to find out about the Clone Troopers when I go in tonight. More info posted LATE tonight.....

**Mystical Musician** · May 2, 2005, 01:16pm

Has anyone found any "Target Exclusive" clone troopers in the Chicagoland area? If you find a few, could someone hold one for me? I think the official release date is May 8th but I've heard that they've been popping up around town.

**air7walk** · May 2, 2005, 03:01pm

The general consensus at Target around here is that they put them out whenever they got them in stock (some a week ago). There are some Target employees that don't even know an exclusive is coming (and it's already gone). Just keep an eye out, because these are going quick!

And how come you guys are only talking about the clone trooper? Fat Robin is MAD!

"Grrrrrrrrrrrrr"

Fat Robin is about to kill the clone troopers!

**Son of Keldor** · May 2, 2005, 03:29pm

i had those toys when i was a kid. they are bathtub toys, right?

=)

**Mystical Musician** · May 2, 2005, 07:42pm

I just contacted two Target's by me, and they both said that the item is out of stock. I gave them the DPCI number for them to look up. Does anyone know if that means that the shipment has not arrived, or if the item has already sold out as stated on the LRT?

**Mystical Musician** · May 2, 2005, 10:43pm

Just wanted to give you all an update about the Target "exclusive" clone troopers.....I found them!

I picked up three. One for myself, and two for fellow .orgers. If you guys need one, just send me a PM and I will sell it to you for exactly what it cost me. (First come first serve).

As of 11:00PM, Both of my extra clone trooper figures have been sold.

**Skullface** · May 3, 2005, 02:04pm

Jimmy/Gabe/Compuman/gamera8 - CHECK YOUR PM BOX ASAP!!!!

**Son of Keldor** · May 3, 2005, 03:01pm

check!

=)

**air7walk** · May 3, 2005, 11:56pm

Jimmy:

I sent you a PM, but I'll go ahead and try the shotgun approach..

Darrell and I chatted last night and he mentioned wanting a 400% Kubrick Smurf toy and that it'd probably cost $300 -- I found an eBay auction for one for $56 + $30 shipping.. can somebody pleeeeeeeeeeeease call him tomorrow and give him this link??

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...sPageName=WDVW

I'm in meetings all morning *and* afternoon or I would! I don't want him to miss out on this!!

-Dan

**Skullface** · May 4, 2005, 01:46am

Managed to score ROTS figures #39 & #40 tonight at work. Nothing else really of note, except we finally got re-stocked on WWE Classics with ANOTHER case of Wave 4.

Hopefully this means we won't get any Wave 5, and go right to Wave 6 when it's released.....

Out of the ML9 case we got the other day, all we have left is 1 Nightcrawler. We even sold one of the remaining Beasts! We've only got 2 ML figs left, so hopefully Wave 10 will hit soon so we can get some of that, and not anymore of 9....

EDIT: Had a little luck this morning, and found three #6 Clone Troopers at Wal-Mart. Stopped at my K-Mart on the way home, and found 2 of the 3 new Galactic Hero sets! (Chewie/Clone Trooper & Super Battle Droid/R2) I'll be going out again later today, so hopefully I can score the Mace/Kit Fisto GH 2-pack, along with some of the other ROTS figures I'm seeking.....

Oh, and I missed Jimmy's Mysterio figure at Wally World.

They had the Spidey(s) from that wave, but old Mysty was gone..... I'll keep looking!

**air7walk** · May 4, 2005, 10:10am

I've seen like a blue million #6 clone troopers.. let me know if you guys need me to pick any up.
