Went to another of Toledo's TRU's today and walked out with a Two Face. They were stocking today and must have unpacked a case no long before I got there. They had 1 Supes, 3 Bats, 2 Aquas, 1 2face and 1BManta. There were 2 Sinestros as well.
Two Face is the one I really had to have of series 2, so now I can relax. I'll probably pick up a Batman Friday if they still have them.

I havent been to TRU in a while. Are the same old scams still going on where scalpers return stuff they horde and can't sell? MOnths if not years later?Leave a comment:

I was very disapointed in the prices of TRU toys. We stopped off at target to get a couple of the Star Wars vintage carded figures at 6.99, but they didn't have vader, so we went to TRU across the street andthe figures were 9.99! Priced the new
AT-AT, I was thinking 60 to 70, no over 100 bucks! They don't run the stuff of sale like target and wal-mart. How are they staying in business???
They had exactly one figure...a Darth Vader on a card creased across the middle. Still $9.99 with a big old empty space 360 degrees all around. No one is going to buy that for that price and no one who works there seems to get that. It will probably just hang there at the SRP while they all dig their collective butts wondering, "Hmmmm....you'd think Vader would have sold out first."????Leave a comment:

We only have 1 TRU in my town so I'm kinda at it's mercy on what's stocked. The next closest one is 90 miles away. Like I said I would have bought those Lexs just to empty the peg. Just amazed it was Wave 1 that was added.Leave a comment:

There are couple within driving distance of me here and I had to go out for another reason so I stopped by the Baltimore county one and they only had the Lex, GL, and Sinestro that have been there for some time. The other TRU that we normally go to stocked up on Wave 1 about a month ago and not much change has happened there.Leave a comment:

Atleast you finally got a fresh case of wave one.From the looks of things here these are the same cases that have been here since I started looking at them.

I stopped at out TRU today just to check. They have had the same 2 Lex's for months now. If I had a job I would have bought them by now. So today they added another case of Wave 1 (2 Supes, 2 GLs, 2 Sins, 2 Lexs). Amazing.Leave a comment:

I checked out TRU on line yesterday to. Wave 1 is listed, but Nothing at all for wave 2. I hate it when companies plays games with people.Leave a comment:

Nothing in OKC, yet. (I didn't make a special trip...I just happened to be across the street from TRU. I went in to look, but to have found them would have been a major surprise.)
Last go around, we got them pretty quick...on the day they hit the website. They are way overdue based on the Wave 1 precedent. Nothing on the website as of now. Almost three weeks late, at this point.
I fully realize I could order these from any number of sources, but part of the excitement was the walking into a major retailer and seeing them on a peg. Wave 1, I got straight from the stockroom on the day they arrived.
I'm grousing, but walking in and seeing them on the peg was going to be the experience for me. Why Mattel didn't expand to include Wal-Mart, Target, K-Mart....well, I'm sure those reasons are beyond me, but a TRU exclusive falls short of what could have made it fun.
It boils down to this, for me....I can overlook the flaws in the line if you can give me something that comes close to the experience. Take away that experience and you have nothing for me.Leave a comment:
