    I just picked up another Batman and Aquaman at TJ Maxx. They also had Superman and Black Manta, but I left those. I was hoping for Two Face, but no such luck.
    Looking for:
    Lincoln Phantom of the Opera

      My Dad found a Superman for me at a TJ Maxx in Milwaukee this week. (I also found 2 Aquaman figures this week in Oshkosh.)

      Still need to track down a Black Manta. (I'll be using an amazon gift card for that one if I don't find it soon.)

        Went to the 2 TJMs in my area again over the past week and actually had luck. Found Batman, Aquaman and Two-Face and saw Superman, another Aquaman and 3 Batmans. Now if I can just find a Black Manta I'd be all set. Still haven't seen any at our TRU.

        If I had a job I would have bought them all. I think the suits, head and boots are worth the $10 bucks.

          Some folks having some great luck finding these marked down. I haven't seen ONE in any of the Marshall or TJ Maxx stores here in Louisville.

                  Anyone find these at Marshalls or Ross? Looks like TJ Maxx is the one? We only have Ross and TJM in my area and nothing.

                    Nothing at Ross. There wasn't much toy wise anyway when I checked one Thursday.

                        My wife stopped in at TJM in my neck of the woods and said there weren't any retro style figures on the shelf. She said it was insane how busy and messy the store was. Customers are buying up everything in the store as there were hardly any toys of any kind compared to when she last was at the same store location just a week prior.

                        I'm still hoping to find a Superman, Two-face, and Black Manta. I worry that maybe Mattel has exhuasted its inventory as this line hit the discount stores across the country earlier in the month. If that's true perhaps some of the retro figures will reappear back on the shelves after Christmas when certain folks return choose to return their gifts. Otherwise I'm getting desparate now and had I the money or option to buy figures I already own I would buy them in the hopes I may be able to trade for ones I don't have.

                            Nothing out here either. TJM stores are looking a little wiped out as Christmas gets closer. Probably won't find these unless they keep hitting after the holiday.

                              Found an Aquaman at the TJ MAXX in Morgantown, WV. Didn't buy him, though, because I hate Aquaman...

                              (They had a bunch of rarer Transformers Animated toys as well, like Wreck-Gar.)
