      I went to a Toys R US Express that just opened up here. I found a full set, plus 2 batman, 1 Aquaman, and 1 Superman. I grabbed them while I could. I left 1 Batman and the Superman behind.

          At TRU-X grabbed 2 each of Bats and 2-face and 1 Aquaman. No Manta. No Supes.

          Left 4 Batmen and 2 Aquamen on the pegs.

                        Just a thought.....Someone mentioned earlier that TRU orders off of a trigger point in their point of sale software. WHAT IF?!?!! You went in and bought the peg warmers.......which would trigger the re order point and then take them back and return them for the new wave once they arrive in the store??

                        Again just a thought I was thinking about the other day. I have not tried this myself. So I really have no idea if it would work or not. Either way I would imagine you could take them back and get your money refunded as long as you keep the receipt and are well within the guide lines of TRU's return policy.

                        For those that want to purchase them from the store and see them first hand I was just thinking of a way you guys could maybe get some of the newer figures to your stores sooner.

                          They were all sold out in Media, Pa a few days ago, so hopefully they'll be getting more to fill the empty pegs. I also heard they were at the South Philly one several weeks ago, so you might try there.

                          Don't bother with Christiana, though. Unless you need some Luthors or Sinestros.

                            I found a full WAVE 2 assortment at Toys-R-Us EXPRESS in Beaverton, OR. The guy there explained that the seasonal shipments were getting to them while the WAVE 1 figs were gathering dust at the main retail stores. If you know of a TRU EXPRESS, I'd recommend trying there first.

                              Richard,

                              When did that one become an Express? Has it always been? I recall going there and it just being a regular TRU. Or maybe I just didn't pay attention. LOL

                                A Toys R Us Express just opened up the road from me in Plainview NY and it has
                                a case of wave 2 on the pegs.

                                I keep wanting to buy them all, but then my wife reminds me that I still have
                                cases in the dining room that I got from Amok Time.
