    DC Total Heroes showing up at K-Mart

    I should have posted this earlier, but my son and I found 3 of the 4 wave 1 Total Heroes figures at K-Mart last week. Superman, Batman and Aquaman. Flash was gone. I decided to pass on these and live vicariously through him. They are simple and stylized compared to DCUC, but the uniform design is kind of nice. And you can't argue with the price, getting a 6" figure and some accessories (except for Supes) for $9.99 these days.

    I know K-Mart is often overlooked in our toy hunting, so I thought I'd point out that you may find them there.

    I saw them at our Canadian Walmart the other day. Perfect kid-friendly, primary colour toys at a good price point.
    That's what it's all about at the end of the day, not how much it looks like so-and-so actor or how many paint apps it has.

      and did anyone think we'd eventually be back to mass market retail with clean shaven, orange shirted Aquaman someday? Nary facial hair nor hook hand in sight?

        I've only seen one Flash at our TRU. And we don't have a Kmart any more. I do dig the Aquaman. Nice, bright colors.

          I picked up a Superman at Toys R Us the other day. I was kind of shocked they are charging $9.99... same price as Walmart. Usually, Toys R Us is more expensive.

          Anyone know anything about the card variants? Superman is available on two different cards: one with the figure from the New 52 Action #1 (the goofy workboots and red cape one), and the other with a Jim Lee Superman. All I've seen locally is the Action #1 version, and I was wondering if the variant was a direct market/mass market change or just something random.

              I picked up Flash Aquaman and Batman. I passed on Superman, even though I am a HUGE Superman fan I was bummed with how supes came out. the other 3 are really nice though

                    I get these for my grandson and he loves them. His favorite right now is the Flash.

                      I saw a Sinestro, Superman, and Batman at TRU in FL yesterday I started to buy Bats even though Sinestro looked way cooler, I didn't buy any at all. If they had Aquaman I would have gotten him.

                        I made the 30 mile trip this morning to the closet Kmart to me. Nothing.

                            Walmart has these now as well, $8.97... I just don't care for them though, not a fan of this chunky style everyone is using, and the choices for package art are odd as well, particularly on Superman and Batman. I haven't seen Flash or Sinestro though.

                              Went to the local kmart in florence, al. No luck. They only had the Superman and after seeing this thread I really wanted the Aquaman. Kinda bummed.
