    I went to a TJ Maxx in Beaverton, OR and didn't find anything. But there was a Toy R Us Express next door, so I bought another Aquaman so I wouldn't go home empty handed. At the TRU Express they still had 2 Batman, 2 Aquaman, a Two-Face but no Black Manta.

      I'm after a cheap black manta. Tried our TJ maxx, but just ended up with 10 minutes of sugar-coated jazzy x-mas tunes while I dug through every nook and cranny. I'm sure they are out there somewhere though. It did look just like Marshalls.
      I'm still kicking myself for not buying the 12" scale giant ghostrider cycle that was at Marshalls a couple years ago. It cost less than the current postage for it nowadays.

      Reminds me of digging through BIGLOTS! stores as well.
      A disorganized crap fest, but if you dig long enough you might find something you can use for a custom figure.
      Cheers,

              Just got back from checking another TJM 10 mins from my office. Found 3 Bats, 1 Supes, 1 Aquaman, and 1 Black Manta. Picked up the AM and BM and left the rest. Still am dumfounded how easy it was to find Wave 2 the past two days vs nothing in TRU the past three months.

              Also picked up DVD copy of 'Doctor Detroit' for $3.99...the lady at the checkout counter said "hmmm, I haven't seen that version of Dr. Doolittle before"

                  only $12 in gas for me. I check other stores on the way, too.

                    Meh. For some of us that's half the fun...to see them hanging on a peg.

                    What's funny is the TJ Maxx price sticker says "Compare at $18.00"...I wonder where they are being sold for $18.00??

                      So if they can sell them for 10 bucks and make a profit why are they twice that at TRU?

                        Because they buy them from TRU for 2$ each. lol

                            In central Ohio, Marshall's on Rt 23 North in Lewis Center has 3 or so of Aquaman and Batman, and one of Two Face.

                              I found 1 Aquaman at TJ in Monroe Mich he was laying on the floor no other signs of any other figure but he is the one I wanted so I was happy for 9.99 you cant beat it. Thanks for the heads up!!!!!!!!!!

                              I just wanted everyone to know I think this figure is great sure it could have been better but I was in awe opening him.
