Maybe a TRU insider can help me with this one...how many cases of any given series of CS does Toys R Us usually get? Where I live it seems like all they get is one. If you don't get to the store the day the figs hit the shelves, you may only ever see 1 or 2 of the most unpopular figs from the series. It definitely doesn't seem like they are restocked frequently. My work schedule doesn't afford me the luxury to be able to check the shelves at opening time anymore...

Well.. First time they order CS sets they usually get 1 case in.. then afterwards they'll get more and more cases at a time. First day CS 17 hit my area I missed out.. yeah F you scalpers.. So I was pissed. I eventualy found my Shane & Eddie 3 days later though.

i learned back at cs 4 that it's worth it to just order online. YOu end up paying only a 1 or 2 extra per fig. And it is worht the piece of mind knowing that you can get the set.

I totally agree naparo01, i have been preordering for a while now and thru RSC on a nice sale day you can score that set at about 14 per fig. its way worth the piece of mind, then i can hunt my favs down for doubles, and i got my set almost a month ago from RSC. THEMS IS GOOD PEOPLES MMMM...HMMM

It certainly seems that at first TRU only gets a case or two at most, then the next shipment is usually a much larger order.
Ordering online for an entire set is a better idea then waiting for the store but if all you want is one or two the shipping plus their prices being more than retail really stings (I was going to order CS 17 Eddie from TRU and RSC online but at $17 each it just wasn't worth it to me); but for larger orders it evens with what'd you end up paying for transportation anyway.

I hate when that happens. I'm going to start ordering online from now on, though I'm a little worried.

Buy online! I get way earlier than stores and if you find the right dealer you may as good a deal as i get, but then again I work in a collectors shop and I know alot of the wrestling collecting communtiy in my area.
