Congratulations Sean!


Why jump on the bandwagon, when you can ride the Short Bus?

Sadly no. We just got a case of wave 1 at my local TRU, so I wouldn't expect wave 2 until the end of the year.

OK, went to TRU yesterday and spent about a hour walking through the store debating what to get.

Some items were less on the website than in the store, even with the 10% off/

Ended up getting two True Heroes vehicles, the Troop Transport and the Navy SEAL Boat. Also found two Tiny Arcade games, Space Invaders and Pac-Man. As I made one last tour I found three different Gas Pumps, Gulf, Texaco, and Chevron.

I think the TH Troop Transport will either be made into a deuce & a half truck for the Joes or painted up for the Oktober Guard. The TH SEAL Boat I'd like to paint up as a companion vehicle for the Cobra Moray Hydrofoil. The two arcades will go with another one in my eventual Dreadnok Roadhouse, along with the gas pumps.

Stopped at Wal-Mart and found they had a ton of Star Wars Black Series 3-3/4 figure clearanced. While I didn't need any more Jyn Erso ones, I did grab all ten of the Admiral Ackbar figures they had.

Stopped at Five Below and found 3x Marvel Gamora and a lone Deathlok, plus a 5 inch DC Cyborg. Discovered later that Deathlok was half price and one Gamora's neckpost was broken in package. Planning on seeing if the Cyborg figure would work for an updated Robo-Joe.

Then I stopped at K-Mart and found two Last Jedi Stormtroopers for $4.25 each.

I just got the Hot Toys 1:1 scale Groot from GotG Vol.2 and he's awesome! He's going on display as soon as I get home.

Got another Ready Player One 4-figure set from Gamestop for $9.74, along with that Saw Gerrera Jedha Revolt set for about $11.

Went to Target and got the Chip and Dale figures on clearance (already!!!) for $5 each. Picked up Baloo a week or two ago. These just showed up at Target within the month and are already being clearanced.

I grabbed a Trollhunters Blinky, at what I thought was $6.74, but paid $8.99. Gonna take him back and see if I can get the sale price, since it didn't ring up right (got picture on pegs).

Over the last few days I've received my Club Heartwrencher/Dreadnok Stinger set, membership Rock 'n' Roll, extra order of 2 of the membership Rock 'n' Roll and a carded version.

On Sunday at Target I picked up the Muldoon and Mercenary Jurassic Park sets (figure + dinosaur), along with the new Star Wars Chewbacca, Range Trooper, and Qi'ra.

Yesterday I picked up from Wal-Mart: 3x Rey/Elite Praetorian Guard, another Black Series Han Solo winter gear, another Paige, and 5x General Hux. Rey/Guard were $7 each and the rest were $4 each.

I think some Dreadnoks will be wearing Hux's jacket as a duster, while getting the Snoke guards gives me enough for the throne room scene, with maybe one or two extras.

Got three of the Humvee sets from Amazon, two of the army 4 packs with the dogs, and three more Gamora figures. Also picked up the of the enchantress packs at target really really cheap. Think I'm gonna use those Gamora bodies as females for the Hell Screamerz line I'm waiting on.

I picked up the True Heroes C-130 from TRU today. It was marked down 30% plus a special location only additional 10% for Friday and today only. So I got the $55 plane for $37 and change including tax. A fair deal I think.

Went to TRU today, possibly for the last time. I might get down again once it gets closer to them closing.

Picked up the two Jurassic World Owens figures I had passed on at Target, also got the 5-pack of Hot Wheels/Matchbox vehicles and another single carded vehicle. Found 3x Gyrosphere launcher trucks for $21 each (haven't seen them at all anywhere at retail).

Picked up another True Heroes Hovercraft, an Amphibious Vehicle, Truhawk Jet Fighter, and a 6 Wheeled Armored Vehicle.

Then went to Wal-Mart and picked up 4x Ahsoka Tano Black Series figures, a poncho Rey, 4x General Hux, and a Rey/Guard 2-pack all for $4 each.

Found a Stormtroopers book and a Wonder Woman book at Five Below.

Managed to score another Mega Construx Urban Strike set at a local Walmart.
These troop sets don't seem to stay on the shelves for long.

Didn't get a chance to post yesterday, but made what is probably gonna be the last run to the local TRU before it closes.

Grabbed:
LEGO Star Wars Force Awakens Guide for $6
Marvel Universe Rage figure for $3.20
Batman TV Catwoman figure for $4
Batman TV Bookworm figure for $4
World's Smallest GIJOE figure for $2
Star Wars Rebels Season 3 DVD for $17.50
Star Wars TRU exclusive First Order Stormtrooper Executioner/Elite Praetorian Guard Force Link set for $14
Star Wars Ezra's Speeder for $8
Ben 10 Four Arms figure for $4
2x True Heroes Troop Transporter for $14 each
True Heroes Amphibious Vehicle for $15.60
True Heroes Hovercraft for $12.80
True Heroes U-53 helicopter for $20

Also picked up at Target the Elite Trooper Edition of Star Wars Battlefront II for $20.


So now I have 4x Hovercrafts, 2x U-53 Helicopters, and 3x Troop Transports.

Probably use Ezra's Speeder as an updated Chameleon for Zartan. Wanna paint one Troop Transport as close to 82/83 :og13: colors and another one paint up in Russian colors. The Ben 10 figure might be a new Venomized troop like the Bio-Viper or Mega-Viper. Wishing now I had picked up the Ben 10 Heatblast figure-that one could be an Venomized Cobra Incinerator. One U-53 will be turned into a Cobra helo.

A family member is traveling back near that TRU a week from now, and if the Trooper Transports and the Hovercrafts are still there and 70-80% off, I may have them grab a few more. That's a heck of a price for a decent supply of fodder vehicles.

I was told that TRUs might be all closed by the end of June. Everything I scanned using the price checked also had 6/30/18 as the end of sale date.
