I stumbled upon quite a cache of Mattel figures over the weekend at Tuesday Morning, which for the uninitiated is a closeout retailer like Marshall's. Has anyone else had luck finding older sets this way with any consistency, or is this likely to be a one-shot deal?

I've heard of people finding some of the older Legend Series (2 and 3) there before. What were you able to find?

I'd like to get an idea before I set out to hit all of the Tuesday Mornings in my area! ;D |

Awhile back I was able to get L3 Rock for $7, EG Rock and EG Untertaker for $10 each at Tuesday Morning. May have to try them again.

I never thought to check Tuesday Morning. I might swing by on my way home from work today.
Thanks for the tip!

We don't have a Tuesday Morning here anymore, but I should probably start checking Ross and Marshalls again, with the Legends being dumped, it might be worth looking into.
Ollie's had some legends figures before Christmas, but last time I was there they were gone. I don't know if they were sold out or just moved (that happens there sometimes) but I'll probably check again this week. Last time I saw any though, they just had some British Bulldogs.

They had all of L3 except the Rock; I only needed two of them, so that's what I got. FWIW, this was in the Atlanta area.

Nice! I checked both of the TMs in my area (Vancouver, WA), and was greeted with empty pegs... Seems as if they're still wiped out from Christmas!

OLLIE's in my area has Legends 3 for $9.99, and Entrance Greats Undertaker & Rock for $9.99.
Legends 3 was also at Tuesday Mornings awhile back for $8 (I think).
I am assuming we will see some DM's at these kinda stores soon.

Has anyone else had luck finding older sets this way with any consistency, or is this likely to be a one-shot deal? The Legends and EG figures have been ending up at these discount stores for a while -- this is why the line was cancelled, they weren't selling at standard retail. I expect that DM figures will be hitting these places soon too. |
