    Got them off the peg today

    Found them first look at the central east coast of FL. Shame they didn't have GA. Was to cool to see them on the peg!

    Glad to see that you didn't have to travel much to find them.

    My son and I bought a Superman tonight. He's been fighting a bad cold and was a bit down in the dumps, so this picked him up a bit.
    It's all good!

      Yeah they have finally arrived in FLA. Got Supes and GL yesterday. Will pick up the foes in a week or so. They seem to be pegwarmers elsewhere, so hopefully here too.

        GA? no chance of that

        seems like folks are going right for supes 1st then GL... either that or those behind the scenes are grabbing the GL's 1st!
        as there are equal amounts of figures in shipping cases

            oops I meant GL. He was gone. So I got the other three. That only left one more set of three. The guy said they had some more coming in. I asked who was doing the buying and he said mostly collectors.

                Finally found some at the TRU's in Huntington Beach CA. I was on my way to pick up some tables and decided to try again, and finally paid off!!! Got a couple of Supes. They have them all but Lex.

                  Went out today on Friday as soon as TRU in Hurst, Tx. opened and was able to get Supes and GL. Looked like they had plenty on the pegs but one of the clerks said they wouldnt last long! (I know, this is my third visit to complete my set). Just happy to get'em, even with the ooze still present!

                          I returned three figures today, Sinestro, Superman and Lex. Sinestro and Supes had just too much goo for me and I wanted a Lex with stitching.

                          I also wanted to get this better set at a better price.. $17.49 each (I had a $10 off TRU coupon from Sunday's paper).

                          When I went to the aisle they had two sets there. The GL's had the new black ring logo, so I got another GL (my only dupe) to open, and better condition goo-less figures of Supes and Sinestro. Superman was also arched in his back a bit, so his nose was NOT touching the plastic shell, as his head pointed up slightly.. a good thing. I also found a Lex with the stitching. So at last, I think I'm all good.

                          I'm much happier now, and the price of $17.49 each is a bit better to live with too.
