    Current pegwarmers?

    What are the current pegwarmers in your area? And for fun let's eliminate the obvious, like leftover Green Lantern movie figures, and Playmates Star Trek movie figures that will still be on hanging on shelves when the 23rd century actually gets here.

    The TRU in Lexington, KY has only one 4" Young Justice figure, Captain Atom. But they have about 20 of them!!! Even marked down to $5.98, he ain't gonna move. They still have about 3 Retro-Action Sinestros still at full price. Time to mark him down folks.

    There are still quite a few Captain America and Thor movie figures hanging around, but the one Cap I see keeping pegs cozy more than others is the desert cammo version.

    A Wal-Mart I visited a month or so back had no DCUC EXCEPT about 10 Kamandi figures for $7!

      At Zellers (soon to be Target...booya!) there are 20 Revenge of the Fallen toys, all of them the same silver car.

      I've never seen Batman Legacy in a store...I never expected to. Stupid Mattel.

              ... I dunno..., Everything ?
              All My Retail Stores, they always Have the Same Crap, a Day, A Week, 2 Weeks, Month ..., It's always just the Same. Perhaps I am so Disgusted with Retail these days or just don't like the stuff that is there , but it really seems as if Nothing Moves, at all.

              It takes me like atleast 6 trips over the course of a Month to a Store to Even Find anything New. Unless of course I take The Boy ..., then there is always a New Transformer he doesn't Have.

              Unwanted Movie Toys have Destroyed Retail.

                Scarlett from the G.I. Joe Renegades cartoon seems to be sitting in every store I go to. I go to Target,she's there. I go to Wal-Mart,she's there. And it's always just one lone figure. I think it's the same figure,they just pass her from store to store.

                  ^Yes, she's another one. She is everywhere. Oddly enough, you could never find Scarlett back in the original RAH line.

                          There is a rake of stuff warming the pegs here in the UK,mostly the new Phantom Menace stuff,Clone Wars,Thundercats,Thor,Transformers etc,even the Dr Who stuff does not seem to be moving.

                          Like BK and KW said,i too make endless trips just to find the same old stuff staring at me on the pegs,it's like deja vu or groundhog day.

                          Never stand behind a cow when it sneezes.
