So what's the deal.. Is 'Blade' shortpacked or just really popular??
The original case packings Balde wasn't ready for them to go out.
He is following in later cases.
If you are finding him at WalMarts - they forced the issue of getting the cases sent out before he was completed.
From the sounds of it, he has been starting to show up. For you - maybe in later runs. As well, since he didn't come inthe first runs, iut may be that he now starting to show up in your area and all those that have the other figures from previous case releases are grabbing him to compelte the series.
I hope he doesn't end up being too hard to find for everyone in the end - ToyBiz only needs to put one damn chase figure in a line. Those make it hard enough!
Thanks for the info Megalith.. Agreed on the "chase figure" issue! [img]eek.gif[/img]
No problem -
Now that your question is answered..
How you been bud?! Everything starting to get straightened back out?
I wanna know if Colossus is forever doomed to stare at his feet, or if the neck joint on mine is just stuck. [img]mad.gif[/img]
Your neck joint is probably a little stuck. Mine stares straight ahead. But his neck joint doesn't move too far back.
Things are still hectic, but better Megalith..thanks for asking [img]smile.gif[/img]
My mom still has need of a lot of our aid, so
my wife and I are taking turns bringing her to the docs and just visiting her. But compared to the last couple months, it's better to be sure.
Opened two fresh cases with a TRU employee last night of ML5 - not a single Blade or Red Skull in either case. 1 Mr. Fantastic in each.
Nomalas is kind enough to be trading me for the Blade he found. But I haven't seen it nor Red Skull anywhere yet - nor have I heard through the grapevine of anyone in the area having come up with one yet.
i saw 4 Mr Fantastics at walmart when i first started hunting this line, but passed cuz all my extra cash was tied up in Xmas crap. Now i've found all but him (and the cahse figs, but i don't count them...)... damn damn damn
I have only seen 2 of that figure. I picked one up - had I know you were looking I would have grabbed the other.
If I see one this weekend while I am out, I'll snag it for you.
no worries, mega, i'm sure he'll turn up again.... which ones are you stil looking for?
Red Skull [img]frown.gif[/img]
I found all the others save Blade on my last stop at TRU. Nomalas had one that we are doing a trade for. Getting him will complete the non-chase set.
About the only other thing that is on the list right now is Abomination from the Hulks classic line. But I havne't heard anything on that showing up as yet anywhere. Oh yeah - and Carnage from the Spider-man Wave 8 (or 2004 wave 1, I can't get how the fuck they are numbering the line now)
