So is Wave 3 Retro Action heros showing up at TRU yet??

[LOU]

I'm headed out to TRU today to see what they have in stock. I'll report back later with their current inventory.

[LOU]

TRU today only had Lex and Sinestro, 2 of each. They sold off some Sinestro and Lex figures though because there was 5 of Lex and 6 of Sinestro when I was last there a couple weeks ago. So that's good to see. Maybe the line got some press somewhere recently.

Nothing yet at the lone TRU in Madison, WI. (But, I may give it another try this afternoon...)

Looks like you can get Wave 3, other than Wonder Woman, at TRU online.

Captain Cold - DC Universe World Us

"Chetah" [sic] - DC Universe World Us

Flash - DC Universe World Us

Well that saves me the trouble of driving to Madison. I was getting them at the Johnson Creek TRU but they closed down last month.
Glad to see another Wisconsiner on here!

Got my Wonder Woman & Cheetah from the comic shop today, same place I got Flash (so-so) & Capt Cold (the best of the 1st 3 waves)
I'm 50/50 on Wonder Woman. The red above the gold on her chest really bugs me. Accessories are nice, face is kinda weird. Mine has more black on one eye than the other so she's has the inquisitive look. She looks a bit fragile, I'll see when I get one for my niece and how fast she destroys it
Cheetah looks great

I had tickets to see the Adams Family yesterday so had an opportunity to hit some of my favorite places in the city.
First stop was TRU in times square. They had about 6 or7 Captain Colds for $22 and a handful of Lex and Sinestro still marked down to $12.99. I have one Cold, and passed wanting to head over to Mid City Comics for Wave 4.

Mid City did have wave 4, or at least half of the wave. They had Black Adam and Martian Manhunter full on the pegs. Also they had Flash, Chetah and some wave 1. I grabbed a martian manhunter which is just gorgeous looking and past on adam. He didn't impress me enough to spend $25 for him. I will eventually get him.
I did grab another Chetah for my 5 year old daughter who has been eyeballing mine on my shelf.

I also hit the other Mid City on way back to Grand Central. They had same 2 of wave 4. I even asked if by chance they had any more, specifically Shazaam in the back. One of the clerks looked, but no luck. I soo wanted to nab a Shazaam!, oh well

So if any members can get into the city, Megos can be found. It brought me back to the early 70's when I got my first at the Alexanders in the bronx. It was of course the RC Batman in a solid box. I still remember seeing that counter display with the original 4. I was allowed one, and went Batman......ah memories

Also check out Adams Family if you can, very entertaining!

a handful of Lex and Sinestro still marked down to $12.99.

After reading that I rushed to TRU but sadly they're still full price. (weeping)

[thunderbolt]

Its official here in FLA, Flash is a pegwarmer. I went to TU today, five Flashes there along with his peg warmer pal, Sinestro. Guess Mattel just can't figure out case ratios.

Sorry Falcon,
It seems the only TRU that i seen them marked down is at the times square store in NYC. I live 70 miles north in the hudson valley, and they are warming the pegs at full price

[Sethmeisteroni]

Last month the TRU near me had sharpie through the price tags on the lex and sinestro peg warmers. With a price at the end of the pegs that said $ 14.99. At the register they rang up full. I showed the clerk and she gave them to me for 14.99. The next time I went, a few days later they switch the prices back to $19.99 ?

[Krypt0nite]

Lex and Sinestro are still peg-warming at TRU Birmingham, but just a few miles down the road at TRU Express in Leeds, AL they have all of wave 3 except for Flash.

Yup, Flash is the designated PW. Came back from TRU today where 3 Flashes hung with ol' Lex from Wave 1.....

Thank goodness! I would much rather see Flash as the PW then some of the others. I am so sick of seeing "the same" Lex's and Sinestro's starring me in the face every visit.

Atleast now I will have something new to look at for a change. Hopefully.

[Foolkiller]

That's a shock that you guys are seeing so many Flashes on the pegs, what with him being the main figure missing from the original Mego line. Guess we can blame 2 things: The ugly head sculpt, and Mattel's shipping them to TRU at a snail's pace so most of the buyers already got them online

[Audiorij]

Thats not the only two factors, another could be that there were more Flash produced than the others. And it could be that kids just didn't care that he was a character omitted from the original line and just liked the other figures more.

[puckace]

RA wave 3 case pack out.

Flash x3
Wonder Woman x2
Captain Cold x2
Cheetah x1

Of course he's going to last longer on the pegs. But the main problem I've seen is that most of the ones hanging there have serious paint rub off the nose and onto the blister card.
