thereasonsy Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 4 of my Walgreens stores are closing and I am annoyed. They are usually the best ones with toys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thereasonsy Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Well, guess I’m not the only one impacted as there will be less than 100 Duane Reade pharmacies left in NYC after today. https://champ.gothamist.com/champ/gothamist/news/duane-reade-nyc-closing#click=https://t.co/e8vGIau18E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Series 10 finally hit Scranton. I found a lone set just waiting for me. Pleasant surprise, all things considered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Saw Black Panther/Shuri and both Venom packs in Newtown, CT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onyx_6 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 After going for 14 months with no new Animated Minimates in the area, I finally found waves 9 and 10 (along with the Venomized sets) last month. And then this week I found a full set of wave 11! Yay for new Minimates!! After watching the Supior Spiderman arc on the cartoon, I am super happy to get Ock and Peter Parker. Anya is nice too. I am sad that I missed the Black Panther's Quest series as that seemed like it would be interesting, but I love Shuri and the Minimate is great!

buttheadsmate Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Having just received some of the very latest Walgreens 'mates I would just like to say how bloody lovely they are . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedTiger95 Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I read the Spider-Man Maximum Venom season doesn't start until April 2020. Interesting these came out months in advance. But I found a trailer showing some other characters. Â Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 Any hints on what's next for walgreens after wave 11 and Maximum venom @DSTchuck @DSTZach?  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funkguerilla Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I'm kinda surprised we didn't get an Iron Man/Gwendom set. That seems perfectly in the zeitgeist. Also, great job DST getting those figs out on time and looking great.

MisterPL Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Looks like we can expect a second series (or second half of the first series?) of Maximum Venom 'mates with all those viable character variants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Paco Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 So I went to one of my six local Walgreens stores today and found two packs of the Walgreens8 wave that I have never seen in my area before. And since they are on a Buy 1 get 1 50% off, I got them. I finally found Wasp/MODOK and Black Panther/Whitney Frost, but I only wish I had found more so I can open some for some customizing (at least of Wasp).  I had already visited four of the other five and only found some much older peg holders that I would only by if they were half price for one. So I left them behind. (mainly Black Bolt/Medusa sets and White Tiger/Iron Patriot sets or some of Thor Ragnarok sets which are all starting to collect dust or the packaging is now so damaged they seldom remain hanging on the peg.)

thereasonsy Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Yeah I did a run and for some reason they weren’t a bogo in NYC. I did pick up a bunch of the venom ones and peg warmers for toys for tots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerdyTrev Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Zach, could you speak a little on the future of the Animated waves? I know some people have been left in the dust with waves 10 and 11, but I've been able to find them relatively easily. I'd like to see more of these and just wanna know what the current status is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 If only there was a way to make these available to be purchased online and picked up in stores. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously. Pharmacies have had this "pick-up in store" thing down for a hundred years now. Why is it such a nosebleed for my plastic crack?

That's funny because I just ordered some McFarlane Fortnite figures from Walgreens with in store pickup last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing! Looks like they figured it out for certain items. Shipping to a store is free with any order total - no minimum required. (Every item in your cart must say "Ship to Store" for your order to qualify.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 And Minimates are nowhere to be found on Walgreens.com. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has 2 two-packs from Spider-Man -- consider it the rest of the Maximum Venom wave -- with two heroes we have not done from the new cartoon paired with two villains we have not done in the animated style.

Awesome news! Thanks. Is it just those 2 packs in the series? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Yes, although remember Maximum Venom was two as well. Not sure if this represents a new normal, but hopefully it helps with sell-through, with fewer lingering sets like Thor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterPL Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Maximum Venom did no lingering in my area. Still waiting on Series 11 though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
