    Tru Boo Boo

    I went to TRU today and they had the Twilight Zone and Ventura Bros. for 9.99 each. I don't really want those but got a Gremlin for the parts (how can you make the fur white without bleaching it? I don't want to ruin it. I'm off subject d@mn ADD) Anyway, when I got up to counter they were 18.99. The law is if you have a sign you have to sell it for that. Luckily they didn't even give me a hard time and just did a price check and I got it for 9.99. So, hit those TRU's and look at the price on the peg, if it's company wide it's a deal until the fix it.

        at 9.99, I would've nabbed the batch. That is less than wholesale. I am sure they fixed it after you left.

          You give retail people WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY to much credit. I'm suggesting that everyone head on down to the local TRU, those stickers were home office made and like lemmings they just stick em on the peg sign.

            I'll save anyone in the Austin TX area some time. I was there today taking a gander at the BBP items and they were all correctly priced. Like I said, if'n they were marked at 10 bucks I would've had started a new collection.

              I'm looking back wishing I had grabbed all 4 , but I just needed the gremlin suit for a screen acurate Mugato, and I figured I'd use the body with a kirk head painted black and white for nightmare at 20,000 ft which is funny since I'm taking my only TZ figure to make a custom TZ figure. Somebody stop me!!

                From the thread title, anyone else mistakenly thought that there might be EMCE Yogi Bear and Boo Boo figures coming to TRU?

                    More TRU boo-boos

                    I was at a TRU tonight, which had Twilight Zone and Venture Bros. I bought some of the TZ figz (marked as $18.99 on the peg sticker), but they rang up at the cash register for $19.99. I pointed out the "error," and they made an immediate markdown to $18.99.
