    That'll teach me to blab my mouth about the Lego situation before I actually buy. I totally jinxed myself. All the Wal-Marts on my side of town sold off all their SW TFA sets, good thing I have Targets to wait for eventual clearance.

    With Wal-Marts I understand each store can vary and not every store is going to match up with clearance items as those are entirely discretionary. I have a neighbor who has worked at WM for 20 years in Loss Prevention so I get inside scoop tips from her now and then. I had to jump ship from her store as my go-to for Lego deals and find a substitute location because her store typically marked down their Lego quite often (plus sales tax is 2% less than anywhere else in town,) but the Lego mark downs ceased when the General Manager was replaced. (This weekend, at my WM replacement store, I'm planning to buy Lego Kylo Ren Lego ship for $90 and Death Star Battle Luke vs. Darth for $50.)

    I lost what I typed up hours ago on my phone. Basically just wanted to mention no news about further sales.
    I did find a seller on eBay selling Nemo new for $12.xx (other folks are selling at outrageous prices.)
    I bought that and Sam Flynn. I'm relived the hunt for figures is over and can resume trying to play catch-up with retro cloth figures, while buying Legos whenever I can.

    Was able to nab an Alice from a WM on the other side of town so I just need Sam and Nemo to complete the figures.
    The Star Wars Racing Toy Box is holding the line at $11 and I don't see it in every store, I'll probably want that.
    Nemo was sorely under produced. I only saw one instance of Nemo on the shelves when it came out and the secondary market is taking full advantage of the scarce figure. With Sam, I'm less worried about not finding him. Sure he's not on the shelves anymore where I live--even at TRU!--but I've no doubt I can find him easy at a pawn shop one of these days. Plus, I can buy him at SRP online still. I kind of wonder if additional quantities of johnny-come-lately figures will ever show up at the stores like Big Lots, etc. Maybe that's it. Maybe all the figures that were made already showed up.
    Despite the fire sales I've seen no evidence of Target or Walmart taking advantage of the open space, it's weird. I wonder what they're waiting for.

    Found singles at Meijer for $5. Still need the Asoka/Annakin pair but they were all still full price.

    Walmart had them for $11.96. Target was $6 I think but all they had left was Ulton, Vader and Yoda. My son is still looking for a few Marvels.

    Thanks for the tip on Target. Will try to hit one this weekend, as the closest one is about an hour away.

    I have indeed seen Rebels on the shelves at Targets and Wal-Marts as I needed all but Sabine to complete my collection. Sabine was my first 3.0 figure when 3.0 originally came out. I bought her before I even had a 3.0 playset and game disc.

    Matter of fact, I have seen all the characters in stores recently where I live but sometimes you have to hit up more than one store because the stores are getting picked over pretty good. Sure is a bummer they never made Hera. I'm the type of person that if there are multiples of any figure I spend the time trying to get ones with the best paint apps. You're right, the figures look great as display pieces.

    Target is still selling at $6.99 each while Wal-Mart cotinues with their Rollback. It won't be long now unless the big box stores get inventory onto the pegs. I need to hit up TRU to pick up the remaining 3 I lack. I rarely go to TRU so I don't know how well picked over that outlet is. TRU sure love to keep old inventory on the shelves unlike Target. I need to repurchase the Mezco Lion-o Thundercats because Snarf is now included and also wrap up my collection by getting Tygra. Wish I'd see more TRU deals when it comes to plunking down $40 per figure. The Rewards program isn't cutting it.
