tones Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 FYI, toysrus.com is a separate entity from TRU. Just because one has something doesn't mean the other does. all joking aside, someone needs to tell this to the employees at TRU. whenever I go to customer service and ask them about a product, they go straight to TRU.com and look it up.

Turtle Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 The local TRU systems that I've seen look just like TRU.com. Quote
tones Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 (edited) ok, maybe i'm jumping to conclusions. i did work nights there for a couple years so I sometimes base assumptions on people that i worked with, and that's not necessarily a good thing. but i did just get off the phone with a very nice employee who is now holding a Mysterio and a Ronan pack for me. hoping to find Vision/Quicksilver hiding somewhere once I poke around.

Minimate-Maniac Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Found these today! Love these figures! My only complaint is the derpy Tony Stark face. Quote
suicidewatch Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Found these today! Love these figures! My only complaint is the derpy Tony Stark face. Because you mentioned it before, did you happen to find them in Athens or at the Mall of GA TRU? Quote
Minimate-Maniac Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 I moved recently so I found these in Louisiana. Quote
CBMM1 Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) YES!!! I found them! The Pleasant Hill, CA TRU still as two full sets of each and TONS of Iron Man/Ronan packs left over. There were 8 IM/R, 6 Spidey/Mysterio, 3 Wolverine/Sentinel, and 2 Quicksilver/Vision when I got there. Seems like these are far more abundant than past waves. Good sign going forward.

dr baghead Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) The Pleasant Hill, CA TRUSON OF A.... I was just there yesterday and found nothing. Oh well, 8 Iron Men and 6 Spidies... sounds like they'll still be there when I get off work in an hour. Edit: Quicksilver was gone when I got there (man they hid those packs well, they probably where there yesterday and I just couldn’t see them.) but that’s okay, I only wanted Spidey and Ironman... It’s upsetting these are going up in price but Spidey’s face only got one hit so his flesh is SUPER red and that of the four remaining Ironmen not one had clean gold paint... but they’re still nice enough I guess. Mysterio and Ronan are magnificent Edited February 19, 2015 by dr baghead Quote
rikfenix Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Found the Wolverine/ Sentinel pack in Queens, NY but that was it. Should've went a few days ago! Quote
ckerus Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Found these this past weekend at both the Fullerton, Ca and Cerritos, Ca TRU. Each had at least two full sets left. Quote
Additup Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Looks like I'm late to the Pleasant Hill Party. I called them Tuesday and they told me to check on Thursday, Quote
CBMM1 Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Wow I had no idea there were members this close by. Now I know my competition. Lol! Yeah I have been going by the store daily to try to find them, and on Monday they said they had a shipment that might have them today. It was odd how they placed them so high up on the shelf. I almost missed them too! Quote
SlushyFrog Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 I was only able to find the Spidey/Mysterio and Iron Man/Ronan packs. Uggggh I hate shortpacking. And to make things worse, there was a peg fullll of the same two-pack of Valiant Minimates taunting me. I mean seriously, does each TRU really need 12 packs of those, while only getting in two of each of the Quicksilver/Vision and Wolverine/Sentinel packs? A head scratcher for the ages. Quote

I almost missed them too! Yeah I was surprised to see members mention the TRU I go to, but it's nice to know that some of the packs I'm missing out are going to collectors not scalpers. A friend of mine was able to pick up most of this wave for me at Pinole. I'm still searching for the Wolverine/Sentinel pack. Quote
QuisporQuake Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 anything in Portland yet? Nothing as of yesterday, was told they just hit their "warehouse" and it should be in stock in a week.....had not checked Clackamas Quote
suicidewatch Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) finally found these this morning, snagged 2 Wolverine/Sentinel packs to get my Sentinel fleet started and then 1 each of the rest of the wave. the Spidey and Wolverine are great looking and all, but I can't imagine that I am gonna keep these, so anyone who is looking to trade for either should hit me up. update: sorry, just found a trade partner.

I'll take both of them if you can ship to the UK Quote
dr baghead Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Wow I had no idea there were members this close by. Now I know my competition. Lol!If it makes ya feel better Pinole TRU is really more my stomping grounds, it’s farther way but it’s layout puts the Monster High dolls two aisles from the minimates/NECA figures which really cuts down on the amount of store I need to wander around to find what I want, so I’m not *direct* competition... I just stop in on my way to Safeway. Quote
Captain Paco Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Bloomington, IL TRU 19 was found. A single case was received at the only TRU in town. A single case was purchased from the only TRU in town. I must admit, I was lucky enough to purchase all twelve packs from a single case. Well, I can only assume it was a single case. I left TRU with the following: four Space Armor Iron Man/Ronan the Accuser four Anti-Sinister Six Spider-Man/Mystero two Payback Wolverine/Classic Sentinel two Marvel Now Vision/Quicksilver So I am sorry if anyone else in the area wanted any, but I like some of the options for customs that these offer me. My local TRU also got a single case of the Valiant Exclusives in today and I purchased three packages of those as well. Still no Infinity box-set in Bloomington/Normal, IL area. Quote
CortherX Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 anything in Portland yet? Nothing as of yesterday, was told they just hit their "warehouse" and it should be in stock in a week.....had not checked Clackamas awesome thanks for the tip! let me know if you find them because i don't live near any of the 3 stores and don't want to make the 3 hour round trip bus ride until i know lol Quote
pappymojo Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 My Rewards coupon expires next week. Fingers crossed. Quote
Twisted Two-Face Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Ronan being packed four to a case is beautiful and I'm much more hopeful for finding him. Quicksilver on the other hand i expect to be a pain in the ass. I should check when my Rewards expire, i still have $10 from Christmas. Quote
