Seriously, things happen for a reason. If you didnt get that fone call, you probably wouldnt have had those figures. Congrats on your findings. Just wondering, I might have asked this before, but the Islandia Shopping Center, that has a Dave and Busters there right? (or whatever its called). I remember going there once, and I saw a WalMart and a KB, so I'm guessing that this is the same place.
Also, Jacklong, I remember reading that thread last week, the one where you got your quote from, and I was having a little difficulty understand it. Do you mean its ironic because he claims to have superior intellect, yet he couldnt spell "proving" correctly? Thats the only thing I got out of it.

Just got back from the Carle Place TRU, and they yet again have restocked! This time with PPV10. They had a few pegs worth of them, as well as the Ruthless Aggression 17 that they previously had, plus 2 RTWM Kurt Angle's and 1 RTWM Chris Benoit. I also think the Hardcore and John Cena titles have been bought. So if you need some PPV10, get down to the Carle Place TRU right now, as they probably wont be there tomorrow. Dam I cant believe they restocked twice this week! The Huntington TRU restocks twice a year! I love this TRU!

Bayshore TRU restocked with RA17 and PPV 10. There where tons of each... and a few RTWM22 figures left. TONS of Marvel Legends 11... I mean it looks like the remains from about 7 cases... maybe more..

i am REALLY hoping they have the two RTWM Shawn Michaels and maybe some RA 18 at around 3:30pm...if anyone thinks they will or will not, please let me know your opinions, because I will be about 30-35 minutes from Carle Place at 3pm and about 45-50 minutes from home (patchogue) after Carle Place and will probably be in traffic for about 75 hours.

Stopped in at the WalMart in Uniondale, which is a black hole for figs, and I found all of AD 16, All of CS 5, 2 x RA 12 Jericho, 1 x Bischoff, 1 x BOWCW Billy Kidman, and all of DA Series 1. I picked up Cena, Batista, Angle, and Mysterio. All in all a pretty good day.
Now if I could just find that damn variant Hogan with the 85 belt I can sleep at night........lol

Dammit. I still need to get some DA figures! Now it looks like I'm the one who cant find them. Jacklong found them, you found them, now I gotta find them! I bet that when I do find them, I wont have any money to buy them.

Yeah RA18 aren't even close to stores yet.
I'm thinking the next thing to hit TRUs will be RTWM22 2packs. The next set to hit stores will be CS9, followed by another wave of RA17.5(Jakks f'd up their shipping-the ones that got out in Dec weren't suppposed to have gone out), then RA18 sometime late March-early April
And if there's any TRU out there where you'll find the harder to find figures at 330 in the afternoon-it's Carle Place-I was supposed to head there one morning, right as they opened, and instead got tied up(i was pissed off) so I said F' It, and went at about 3pm, and found Everything of what I was looking for, and they had lots of them(I think it was RA16.5 not positive though).

Are you serious about Ruthless Aggression 17.5? Because I have been looking for that for a while. Oddly enough, I bought a Ruthless Aggression 17.5 Shawn Michaels, and do you know from where? The Huntington TRU! I was amazed when I saw it. It was around Christmas time obviously, and my brother told me not to buy any figures for me, since he might have gotten it for me. Since he was telling me he concentrated on Classic Superstars, I decided to buy the Shawn Michaels anyway. Even if he got it for me, I could trade or something. But I never remember seeing Ruthless Aggression 17.5 at the Carle Place TRU. But thats crazy that they messed up the shipping on those, and out of all places, I find them at the Huntington TRU. It was weird to see basically nothing on the pegs, and 1 Rey Mysterio, 1 Shawn Michaels, 1 Batista, and 1 Hurricane there, as well as a Adrenaline 15 John Cena/JBL. Ever since then, this is really the only time they restocked. I dont really count the Ruthless Aggression 17 figures, because that was only like one case of them. I should get a job there and turn that place around. Also, I dont believe TRU has gotten Adrenaline 16 yet, have they? Its been mostly KB's and WalMarts

WM Islandia at 10am had what HR2X said: DA1 x1 HHH; x1 Orton; x1 Angle **They also had** BOECW/WCW x1 of the following: -Bubba Ray Dudley -DVon Dudley -Stevie Richards -Rhyno -Kidman -Jericho -Benoit -Mysterio(WCW)---BOUGHT 1 RA14: x2 Flair x2 HHH--BOUGHT 1 x2 Benjamin--BOUGHT 1 x1 Trish
KB Islandia: PPV10-Didnt look through all of them, but I saw 2 Animals, an OJ, Batista, and some others. AD16-At least x2 of all-there was one Cena/Jericho that someone jacked the Spinner belt from. AD14 shelfwarmer city-Tajiri/Regals AD13 shelfwarmer city-La Resistance(I'm gonna buy one one of these days for Sylvan)
WAlmart Centereach: -DA1: x1 Angle, x1 HHH, x1 Orton, x1 Rey -AD15: x2 Rey/Eddie, x2 Cena/JBL, x2 Edge/Kane -RA14: x1 Flair -PPV8 (NYR 05)- x4 HHH, x3 Batista, no HBKs in ref suit, but at least one of Eugene, Maven & Kane -TNA Series 2-ton of each
I think that's all I went to today.
I bought the Shelton cause I got a FC Mark Henry, and I'm going to do a quick part switch using the RA13 (Blue) Shelton. Stay tuned as I'll post pics in here of the Before & After shots.
Also needed a nice Ring Gear HHH(I got RA16) and since he's not in any of the upcoming sets I figured why not.
Rey WCW is to keep MOC as I have it loose already. I love that fig.

Here's a quick pic of RA14 Shelton & Triple H I got And on to the main attraction... Here's pictures of a nice RA figure of The Worlds Strongest Man.... Mark Henry Mark Henry FC Figure Mark Henry FC Figure facing off against RTWM22 Kurt Angle BEFORE: Shelton Benjamin RA13 Figure & Mark Henry FC Figure AFTER: Mark Henry in Ruthless Aggression Style! Royal Rumble Main Event: RTWM22 Kurt Angle vs RA Mark Henry Tonights Smackdown Main Event & Rumored Wrestlemania Match up Mark Henry (RA) vs. The Undertaker (RA14 Fix Up w/MMA Glove Hands) I tried to put Henry's FC lower half of his leg(calf/foot) onto the RA14 Shelton leg-to make the figure taller-it came real close, but no cigar-the FC leg is slightly off scale to fit into an RA leg. RA13 Shelton ended up working perfect, as the boots match the singlet perfectly. After seeing the upcoming lineups from Jakks-it doesn't look like we'll ever get a RA Mark Henry, since by the time Jakks releases all the figures that were in the announcement, and then announce more future lineups again, Henry will most likely be long gone as his contract is up this summer, and I dont think he'll be resigned. Matter of fact, I wouldn't be surprised if The Undertaker destroys him in their Wrestlemania matchup, and we never see Henry in the WWE again, the way Taker got rid of Paul Bearer & Muhammed Hassan to name 2. This figure is so sweet-it's my new favorite figure in my entire collection, edging out RTWM22 Rey & HBKster:

With Treacherous Trios 3 being found in California already, how long do you think before we see them on the East Coast?
