    I just found some Wave 2 figures. What have YOU seen in stores?

    I hit three Target stores today while I was on the road. I wanted to get a Hendrix before I missed my chance. They're already sold out at the stores near me, so I thought I should take a look at other Targets when I'm in a different area. I didn't find Hendrix in either of the first two stores I visited, but I found one left in the third store for $12.99, so I now have all of the figures that I wanted from wave 1!

    Two of the stores were sold out of Dracula, but one store had FOUR Dracula figures, the most I've seen at one time, and they all had pretty good paint application on the faces (I've seen several with bad paint applications warming the pegs of the Target stores near me).

    One store had five wave 2 figures: 2 Greg Brady, 2 of the 2nd wave Charmed girl, and 1 Spock. I picked up the Spock for $12.99. Actually, all of the single carded figures I saw today (wave 1 and 2) were $12.99 at all three stores.


    I've seen several images of the wave 2 figures, but I'm curious which figures have you guys actually seen in the stores at Target?

    I saw the WOZ set today in Birmingham, AL but no other wave 2 figures.

      Oh, cool! Which character or characters did you see?

        Target in Hoover has the WOZ set, plus a full complement of wave one. They also have Zod and Batman of the larger figures.

          Which characters are included in the Wizard of Oz set? I've seen a photo of Dorothy, but I don't recall any other Oz characters for the new Mego line.

            Dorothy comes packaged with the Wicked Witch.

              Very cool! I didn't know that was going to be a 2-pack!

                Between Maine and New Hampshire all I've seen so far is the Full House two-pack. I check regularly.

                I've learned patience though...they're coming.

                  I don't suppose anyone knows if wave 2 has hit the Niagara/Buffalo area yet? I feel like a road trip is in my future.

                    I haven't heard anything and I have friends who normally let it be known. I've been really tempted to border hop but that's a Loooooong drive for potentially nothing.

                      Nothing yet, but I will be passing a couple of Targets on my way home today.

                        Oh, I didn't even know Full House was going to be in wave 2!

                        With as much as I travel around, I'm sure I'll be able to find all of the figures that I want from wave 2 eventually. I'm just curious about what's out there.

                          Found the 14" DC Wave 2 figures at Target. I checked there Saturday and they only had Jo from Wave 2. Today they had these and Samantha from Bewitched. I couldn't resist Superman and Batgirl. I was tempted by the other two, particularly GL, but I decided I wanted to stay married, since we have an expensive vacation coming up in less than two weeks.

                            I've been posting ebay auctions of the new figures. If you want to see what's been released early so far, you can go to the auction watch section and find a lot.

                              I just got the Wizard of Oz two pack from the Mall 205 Target in Portland, Oregon. They have three left. One is numbered 345 I do believe.
