That sucks man. Hopefully the two packs show up a day or so after Christmas. When I called my local TRU for the two packs, they told me they had them in the system, but no info as to when theyd be in.

That's bad dude, looks like the scalpers curse has carried over to Mattel :/, but atleast you are getting any Mattel early. UK'ers have to wait until the 1st  |

That's OK. Like I said he didn't have a 1/1000 Trips (which is the only Basic I still want) and he's been pissed off by me a few times when I got my DCUC8 & DCUC9 before he got to the aisle.

So what is toy shopping at 7 AM like? Is it filled with filthy scalpers? I don't know if I've ever seen a scalper in person, but I certainly never got to TRU before noon.
I'm sure you're going to have no problem finding wave 1 in the coming weeks, but I don't know about the 1/1000 figures. I have never seen a Jakks chase figure ever, not that I care, but I know some people here have a bunch of them. I guess the early birds are beating me to them.

It's quite too quite. Except for everyone that was converging on the table by Customer Service with the ZuZu pets on it. lol

Also, I had the manager conduct a statewide search for Mattel figs this morning. The search populated over 4000 units (I am assuming boxes) at the warehouse but nothing in NJ stores. I was happy to see him using the various search queries in the TRU database. We can expect more after the holiday weekend. Also, my local Walmart has two cases on order which have not shipped from the warehouse. These should pop up after the holidays as well. |

The 1/1000 seem pretty easy to find...Hell even my wife found me a 1/1000 Cena. So hopefully I'll find the 1/1000 Trips.

Nice picks PJ. Sorry you missed out. Im bout sick of these a$$hole scalpers taking every freakin case. It's one thint to take all the hard to finds or the belt chasers but the whole damn case isnt necessary when the figs will be out in mass in a few days.

That guy must have grabbed three cases of these. I mean it's one thing to do that, but it's another to come here and post pictures of it when you aren't offering them up to fellow members. That is just immature, IMO. |

I am just pissed that none of my stores are carrying them yet or if they are they are keeping them in the back. In a few weeks there will be so many of series one will be sick of seeing it.

That is just immature, IMO. actually a few members here did get figs from me.. And i did get 3 cases minus 2 figures..Someone beat me to one case and took a hhh and cena. Funny thing was he took the regular trips and left the 1 of 1000 for me  |

I saw posting that Rockaway TRU actually put out cases today. It's quite too quite. Except for everyone that was converging on the table by Customer Service with the ZuZu pets on it. lol The exact same behavior at my TRU at 6 in the morning haha.

Damn, those 1000 Trips seem to still be finding a way to avoid you but hopefully soon. Nice buy on the ring, definitely looks like a step up in quality from Jakks. Enjoy.

Mattel's ring look better with those black ring posts compared to Jakks. 1 up to Mattel.
