I got my Ninjor figures in from Amazon. He is, by a wide margin, my favorite figure in the line so far. So friggin' awesome.

I picked up Ram Man at Target today and picked up Clamp Champ at a different Target last weekend. Wish I could find those 2. I've been checking every Target in my area every night and all I've found so far has been battle armor He-Man.

Every store I go to has He-Man and Skeletor clogging the pegs. On March 14th, I helped a good buddy of mine snag a Scare Glow, Orko Trap Jaw and Man E Faces at Walmart. I don't think it helps that these figures are packed 4 per case.

I don't think it helps that these figures are packed 4 per case. It definitely doesn't help. Seems to be how action figures are anymore. One case with one of each figure. I feel like they'd pack three per case if they could. Don't want too many people being able to get these. Anyway, all I see are He-Man and Skeletor, too. My Walmart has 6 or 8 pegs full of the two and no one else. And plenty of Battle Cats.

Seems to be something Mattel is famous for: one wave is overstocked and plentiful, and the next 2 or 3 are next to impossible to find even one. Same goes for motu-wwe, and was a huge problem with retros.

Target had three cases of wave four yesterday. I saw one of the Target associates open a case for the pegs and then I asked if we could open the other two boxes, hoping for some Deluxe figures, but both were wave four. I think the other two cases were going back to the stock room because Skeletor and He-Man are clogging the pegs.

Walmart is unsurprisingly canceling Grayskull preorders. It's still available to preorder from a couple other sites.

This is supposedly out in some stores or available somehow, but it seems like there aren't that many available. I definitely haven't seen it. Maybe with some time it will be more available, but for now it seems like only He-Man, Skeletor, Battle Cat, and the Sky Sled pack were produced in high numbers (overproduced I'd say).

Both my Grayskulls were canceled. I ordered one as a backup from EE, but I’m confident I’ll find them at retail or Amazon will get them before that one ships. It’s only disappointing because Walmart is getting everything early. So if I can’t find one there it’s going to be a wait until August. ToysRUs going out of business has proven to be the worst thing to ever happen to the toy industry imo. Walmart and Target getting these exclusives, even as early releases, has ruined collecting for so many people, not to mention the scalper culture it’s created. Forget the fact we lost a piece of our childhood, and that we’d already lost KB, but now we’re entirely at the mercy of chain retailers who couldn’t give any less of a about us as end consumers.

TNI finally has images of Origins Wave 5. It's interesting and cool the Evil-Lyn has the 200X logo on the front of the bubble. I hope this means we'll be getting other 200X versions of characters. Also of note is that Faker is orange armor and red hair, which isn't too surprising, but all the card art has been magenta armor with orange hair. And it appears to be a new head sculpt, although they only have a small image, so it could be the vintage He-Man head repaint. toynewsi.com/241-38909

3ntertainment 3arth has the Thundertank in stock. Way overpriced, if you ask me.

Today is the first day I've received a notification that it's in stock on the Target app. It wasn't available by the time I checked, of course, but I'm wondering if that means it's finally hit its street date. Maybe going forward it will start to show up. I'm definitely looking to get one, too.

Anyone else been trying to hunt down the MOTU Origins Rise of Evil Keldor/Kronis set? "Target exclusive", pfffttt!! Might as well call it the "Target-employee/Ebay exclusive"! It's ridiculous. Last week I missed it by minutes as 2 guys beat me in Target at 10 minutes after they opened. This morning I was at the store 3 minutes after they opened, I turn the corner to the aisle and a guy runs past me with the last 2 pack in his hands. Slightly annoyed as he was for sure a reseller as he grabbed some barbie stuff and wasn't happy only one was on the shelf. 30 seconds sooner. Oh well I'm determined to get this sucker more than ever after these 2 misses.
