THE_CRIPPLER Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 I just got back from TRU and picked up all of the new ones and also picked up an extra Storm/Klaw that I would trade for a Silver Surfer/Swordsman pack since those never showed up around here.

pavehawk78 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 *wags finger at Groundhog* Do you want this entire wave or just the exclusives? Thanks for that, but you guys who find extras could probably provide more help with guys living out of the country, who have a much harder time obtaining these things than those of us in the states do. Having said that, I'm looking for everything except the Thor/Loki that we're gonna get elsewhere Well I went back to my local TRU today and I'm afraid I have bad news....all they had left were Loki/Thor and the mediocre Wolverine/Cap. I can pick up the Wolverine/Cap for anyone thats interested....they had a few of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Well I went back to my local TRU today and I'm afraid I have bad news....all they had left were Loki/Thor and the mediocre Wolverine/Cap. I can pick up the Wolverine/Cap for anyone thats interested....they had a few of them. Such is the way of short packed exclusives. When I found mine, there was another fellow in the aisle who beat me to them. I literally said, loudly, "Hey! Save some for the rest of us!" Turns out he was another giddy collector there with his family, just happy to find something in store. But still, considering the crowd that shows up on Fridays, I feel justified in my obnoxiousness.

mtd20_2000 Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 For anyone living in Houston, Texas. Yesterday, I had seen and left a WWH/ Stretch Attack Mr. Fantastic & Klaw/Secret Wars Storm at the TRU on Fairmont (Pasadena/Deer Park area). I hope that helps.

Today, I had seen and left a WWH/ Stretch Attack Mr. Fantastic & Klaw/Secret Wars Storm at the TRU on Bunkerhill (I-10 & the beltway). Once again, I hope that helps.

MST3KFan Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 I happened to buy a WW Hulk/Mr. Fantastic along with my Storm/Klaw and Cap/Wolverine sets. I had read somewhere on here that someone had a store that had a ton of the Molecule Man/Spider-Woman 2-packs. I never saw them or the Warpath/Angel sets at my local TRU... I don't suppose anyone would be up for a trade would they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMiracle Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 I found the whole set last night. I can pick them up if anyone needs them. I need a lot of the less recent Marvel Minimates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 (edited) A certain "crazy" member here helped me out with the newest TRU wave (thanks again! ), and like others, I was a bit saddened by Cap's mask. So I thought to myself--which figure has eyes placed ridiculously low on his head? Here's is one way to kill two birds with one stone, if one were so inclined: And while I'm at it, here are some of the Secret Wars crew: Edited March 14, 2010 by karamazov80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjbrwesq Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 So far every Toys R Us in the Los Angeles area I've been to has had them in stock. I've personally picked up the last Klaw set in Porter Ranch, Van Nuys and Burbank, but there are tons of Thor and Cap to be found and at least a few Hulks. I'm checking Woodland Hills and Thousand Oaks tomorrow (mainly cause I haven't found a Hulk I'm happy with (every one I've seen so far the muscle detailing is applied skewed heavily towards his right side) but if I wind up with any extras after my minimate friends get their pick of them, I'll happily forward them to anyone on here who needs them for cost plus shipping. Man...I dunno why, but I'm super excited to have a Klaw minimate. He's pretty awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bilbofett Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 I have 3 Klaw/Storm packs to sell(at cost+ S&H) to whoever needs them. If you have a Paypal account and want one PM me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Man, it's been feast or famine with these TRU exclusives. The Angel/Warpath wave was one-and-done; this wave's been restocked twice in my neck of the woods... I can't imagine the actual production runs changing that drastically. I wonder why the distribution has varied so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Apologies if someone has already noted this, but - are Dreadnoughts Shin-armour re-using the pieces from WWHulks shin straps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Apologies if someone has already noted this, but - are Dreadnoughts Shin-armour re-using the pieces from WWHulks shin straps? It certainly looks like they do in the promo shots and the pics from Toy Fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rheul Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 Just stopped off at TRU over lunch and scored the Mr F/ WW Hulk 2 pack. Both are better than I had expected. I hid the Storm/Klaw to grab later... Sometimes life is good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binaryan Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 The luck of the Irish was with me today! A nearby TRU had the entire set sitting on the shelves with extras of the shortpacked ones! If anyone needs the Mr. Fantastic/World War Hulk or Storm/Klaw sets... check out my WANT/HAVE list Would love to pass along the good luck.

karamazov80 Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I put the Aquaman face under Cap's mask, and think it works very well. You can't push the mask down all the way, but it fits snugly enough on that head that it won't slide all the way down (on mine it did, anyway). With that face, this Cap really rivals any other IMO. I still personally prefer the wave 5 one, but the detail and extra goodies (belt, boots, shield holster on back) are nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die_fliedermaus Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Found an extra Klaw/Storm exclusive 2-pack at TRU this week... I would gladly trade it for the Series 5 Surfer/Swordsman 2-pack that I missed earlier this year. Please PM me if interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
