If you're looking for new Avengers figures, check Walmart

Found a giant corrugate located @ the front of the store by the check lanes. Tons of 4" Black Widows, Hawkeyes, Nick Furys, Chitauri, Hulks, & new Iron Men. Happy I didn't pay online prices for Widow & Fury.

Ugh! No, The Walking Dead Minimates for September

The were supposed to ship this month. I've checked Diamond's shipping list & they don't have them listed. Hopefully, they will ship in October. Ever since I saw the prototypes, I've been wanting these figures!

So I bought my first new retail Transformers in quite some time today...

Picked up Fall of Cybertron Prime and Shockwave. I got Shockwave hoping he'd be a good fill-in for a classics-style figure of the character, and Prime just because, well, it's Prime.

Now, in the package, I could tell these guys were a little small for deluxes. But dang, opened, these guys are tiny. So tiny, that Shockwave will not work for a classics collection, imo. I guess I'll have to hope for a 3rd party figure.

The size would've been bad enough, but they're also more expensive than deluxes used to be. Just shy of $16 for each of these? Wow.

As stand alone figures, they're nice, but just don't fit in with any previous stuff I have. Color me a bit disappointed.

price update on the Dark Knight Returns 4-pack from DC Collectibles

I heard back today, and the price is supposed to be $59.95. I've updated the news item just now, but wanted to mention it in case you were interested and didn't want to keep checking that page over and over.

Does anyone have, SDCC The Thundercats Minimates?

I've been on the fence about getting them. Didn't know if they were worth, $30. Any help is appreciated. Have a good one!

K-Mart with DC SUper Friends HeroWorld Hawkman

Not a major find, but a cool Super Friends piece. Found at K-Mart, in one
of their aisle, 4-way packs. 6 or so inches tall. You can push a button
on the back to open his wings and then re-set. Has a Mace accessory, too.

What are your favorite Star Wars figures?

My all-time favorite non-vintage figure's VC09 Boba Fett (ESB version)...

...but I scored the new VC112 Sandtrooper...

...a few days ago, and IMHO it's perfect. Amazing what some nice accessories and a great paint job can do. I'll pick up a few more of these guys if I'm ever lucky enough to spot any at retail again. :b

Mattel Shop has DCUC Wave 20 in stock

In case anybody needs 'em. Red Arrow, Green Arrow, Reverse Flash, Hawk, Dove, etc. are all in stock at $15.99 each.

Skylanders Mail-in Offer

In the Halloween section at Target, look in the non-candy food section for a 20-pack of chips and Cheetos. They have a mail-in offer for a Skylanders Sidekick figure on them. You need the UPC from the outer bag and $2 for shipping.

I googled the offer, and apparently it's been around for a few months already:

Maybe I need to eat more junk food so I'd know about this stuff earlier? Tongue
