Check ebay for Juggy. Seeing as he's not rare most people put him up for BIN at the same price as store. Thats how I got mine, I even got my Cable for BIN less then in store. For Deadpool you'll just have to keep looking cause they charge a fortune on online  I have a rule, where I don't pay above retail for figures. I'm not going to help scalpers by using Ebay. |

Look, buying from Ebay only encourages people to clean out the figure aisle, because they know they can make money from people who can't wait outside Walmart every morning. If I can't find Juggernaut on Amazon, or at the store, I don't need him that badly. |

I forget over in US you get them in stores alot more then we do. I've only ever seen one ML figure in store over here. Don't worry about it |

I officially started my ML collection last night when I bought the complete set of Series 6 at TRU in Raritan, New Jersey.
The Deadpool is my favorite, followed by Wolvie and Phoenix. Cable is pretty crappy IMO. I wish that it had come with gun that can be held.
I have been waiting for a whole set of ML that was all characters that I liked, or had some interest in, and this sixth series was def. it.

Man...I got hosed...I think. Doesnt Deadpool have the knife in his hip holster, because mine is sans knife. And the stupid peg on his stand was already busted. Of COURSE they only had that one...dang it! But Im still gonna take it back to TRU and just wait for next time. Really awesome fig.
Got green Phoenix, too. Hope she is in good shape. You know, they always look ok in the package (YOu cant see Deadpool's holster really well in the blister because its turned, so I didnt see it until I got home.

I phoned up today and someone in the background was being a complete jerkoff about it saying they didn't have them and to say only that... don't think he knew we could hear him. So need to find elsewhere |

So need to find elsewhere Wow that doesn't sound like 10th? I'd say give them another phone tommorow as thats the only place that still stocks them online. FP sold out ages ago you see. |

It's odd that you would have a hard time finding them in the UK. ML 6 hit you guys almost a month before we got a whiff of it in the states.

Got X-Men series 1 Cyclops to stand along side my X-Men team of Juggernaut, Cable, Wolverine and Beast. Not a bad team.
The comic shop now says they should have them in Saturday, its been confusing but atleast I know I'm getting Deadpool and Phoenix soon.
I also put down a preorder from FP on Apoc from Series 7. I'm just going to preorder now, I've tried for ages to track them down and I can only find them about 30mins-1hour away from me. Its too dar to keep going up to check if they have any I need... may as well preorder.

Well, TRU is dicking us around again. They've pushed back the ML 7 shipping date of September 20th, to October 1st. Being the dumb sap I am, I'm going to give the chain stores a look tomorrow, and maybe get lucky.
