Well today I made my usual trip to Walmart in Wyncote, PA as I was specifically looking for RA 20 Boogeyman and the new CS 3 Packs. I see that RA 20 came in but of course there were only six figures on the shelves. The first rack had Flair, Masters and Kash and the second rack and Booker and 2 Masters I believe. I walk around behind the isle and check behind stuff and see if there are any boxes lying around. I look above shelves just seeing if I can find a hidden Boogeyman. Less than four minutes later, I walk back to the same aisle and I hadn't seen one person go into the aisle, and BAM Boogeyman!! is right in the front right in front of the Masters figure that was in front right before!! It was just like the Boogeyman's entrance...he came from out of nowhere. I just thought that was a great story!
And an even bigger find came a few hours later in Horsham, PA where I see 2 parents and a five year old boy looking at the Jakks. From the corner of my eye I see a CS 3 UNDERTAKER! and I think "Did they re-release these?" Apparently someone returned that and a Studd CS 2 and I was the first lucky person to nab that Taker because I know it is a coveted figure and it is impossible to find at a retail store.
Well thats my story guys. Hope you enjoyed.

injured....did the horsham store have alot of new stuff? No, the Horsham store had nothing really. Just a bunch of CS 9 figures (Kamala, Akeem, Bigelow) and some AD 17 and 18 two packs. Nothing special. They had RA 20 last week but they sold pretty fast. That was the first place I found RA 20 and I got Kash, Flair and Booker there. Other than that stuff, they had a CS 2 Studd which was probably returned with the Taker I found.
