My walmart has reaction figures!

[LordMudd]

In case I have not mentioned it here, I number my stores based on the frequency with which I can access them. Thus Walmart #1 is where I normally shop, and all others follow suit. That said, I made it out to Walmart #2 tonight and found Dracula, Frankenstein, and the Bride. They also had Rocketeer, Kane (Alien), and something else I didn't pay much attention to. Will be hitting more Walmarts now.

I checked that tonight, not even an empty peg for them.

Guess my original assessment of Walmart stands.

They are in a large Reaction figure display box on the top self of all the Walmarts I've been to.

I saw these at Target the other day as well, in the toy section on pegs on an end cap with no Reaction figure display box.

The FYE by me just got in the Pulp Fiction and Buffy figures...guess they're all out now

[kerowack]

The pulp fiction ones lost me because the box art isn't of the characters and the head sculpts are continuing the tradition of iffy human faces. Like an episode of Daria.

I just didn't care for the property at all...just seemed weird in this scale and style to me...Anyway, My local TRU had the Predators and I was able to score this guy...



I also heard rumors that the Clear Invisible Man is showing up at Barnes and Nobles....

Walmart #3 was as bad as #1, clueless. I have 7 more I can check. Looking for 1 of the pulp fiction figures. Might consider the guys in the suits if they look good enough to go with my MiB figures.

I know it's fun to hunt these down, but almost all are available from Amazon with free 2-day shipping if you're a Prime member.

The cards ARE of the characters, except for the "bloody" variants that only have the movie poster on them. The head sculpts are goofy though, as they are on many of the ReAction lines.

EDIT: Actually, I realized that the card art I'm remembering is from Amazon's site, and may not be how they ended up. I can't remember now what the ones I've seen in person have on them, so you're probably correct.

Here are the 3 I found, and also next to their Remco and fast food counterparts for comparison.

The cards are definitely the movie posters. I passed on all of them at Barnes and Noble because of the heads on the figures, but would have caved if they were the characters on the card.

Found a large selection of these at Barnes and Noble.

Word on the street is that playsets, larger scaled creatures/monsters and MAYBE vehicles are at least being discussed and looked into for the future. Its also been mentioned that classic PoTA is something they are very interested in doing, but dont take that as a sign that they will anytime soon. We know of Classic Star Trek and possibly ST:TNG figures for next year. There have been rumors that X Files and Big Trouble in Little China may also be on tap, but its unconfirmed. Also of note, the second wave of Pulp Fiction has apparently been pushed back until Feb. 2015, for those who are wondering where their carded gimp or Wolf figures are.

[LordMudd]

Again, I would like to see more added to the UM line, like Metaluna Mutant, Igor, Vampire Bride, Mr. Hyde, maybe Maria from Metropolis...

Any word on the possibility of this?

2 classics I just thought of: Forbidden Planet and Day the Earth Stood Still.

FP: Robby (been done to death but not as an action figure, usually as a wind up), Altara, Morbius, Space ship guys (especially the cook!) and the car would be really cool.

DtESS: Gort, Klaatu, seamless saucer.
