We never got the 6 inch Bowser and DK in the U.K, once again the Americans get favoritism. Yeh... always the way isn't it. I don't think Americans even realize how expensive and difficult it is to collect many figure lines when living outside of the US. I mean it's not like Nintendo characters aren't well known or popular in the UK...

Wario however I had to spend double the rpice to get online. ):

After they way we've been treated by Club Nintendo in the States honestly we know about being jerked around by Nintendo. This is leaving the amiibo conversation out of it too, haha.

I must have missed the latest Jakks wave yesterday at Target. When I went there today, only Luigi was left.

Toad and Luigi were there, but no Diddy Kong.

Around my neck of the woods it seems Samus is the hardest to find followed by Diddy and then Luigi...Toad is everywhere.

Picked up Samus, Luigi, and Diddy at Target last week which prompted me to then go buy Mario, Yoshi, and Donkey Kong.
LOVING THIS LINE!!!!!
When are we expecting to get word on the next few series of figures? I still haven't found Bowser, or the 2 new 6" figures.

Yeh I'm getting pretty irritated by how slow the progress/news on this line has been. How Jakks aren't churning out of loads collector quality figures based on the CLASSIC games is beyond my comprehension. I'm not interested in the modern/kid-aimed stuff.

I got 4 inch Luigi and Blue Toad yesterday, leaving my collection to seven 4 inch characters.
Can't find Diddy Kong or the 6 inch characters. ):

I picked up Samus, Luigi and Diddy a few days ago (all the Toads had messy paint, so I'll keep looking). All such awesome figures...I don't even really like Diddy, but the figure is just so good!

Found a lone Bowser buried behind a bunch of DK on a bottom shelf at a TRU Express. First time I've seen him since before Christmas, his secondary price appears to be going up.

Finished all the 4 inch characters, but still no luck on 6 inch characters at all in the United Kingdom, so jealous of the Americans.

So I found this Link figure at my local TRU. I guess even Link gets tired of the Master Sword from time to time and feels the need to master something else. Also, did anyone pick up the big Metroid? That thing is the sh*t!

Where have you guys had luck finding the big Metroid? I haven't even found Bowser and only have seen Donkey at TRU. I'm trying to avoid scalper prices but I'm pretty hooked on this line.

Great deal. Most of the Targets around me have stocked the next set of 4" with Samus, Luigi, Blue Toad, and Diddy for under 8 bucks each in case any of yous guys still were lookin!
No luck today at Toys R Us but I'll keep huntin!

Found the 2 inch Olimar and Toon Link at walmart the other day. They are really awesome. These are the first jakks nintendo figures I've picked up. I've been hunting for the 6 inch scale Metroid and Windwaker Ganondorf no luck though.

I can't wait for these to come out. Hopefully it's sooner than later and they aren't impossible to find.
