Guys! Be sure to check your local Toys R' Us stores. I just got back from mine, and they put out some older, and rare Marvel Legends. They had some from previous series' such as Blade, Pheonix, and Deadpool. I had enough for one figure and got the Deadpool, who I have been on the look out for around three months.

Okay, what the ? Seriously. I go to Toys R Us, and who do I see? OPRAH! She was filming there for some charity drive. It was so freaking surreal. I was probably on the camera a few times, so watch for me on her show. I was wearing a tan jacket.

In less than 24 hours, SYE and myself found two rare figs by checking the riser flaps. Employees put them there, until they get off work, and can buy them. And remember, you might want to check all the flaps. Sometimes the Hot Wheels risers have ML, sometimes the ML risers have Star Wars. Just investigate.

Lol, will do Doc. Did you find anything good there? No! They closed the god-damned store for that bitch. And the worst part is is that they put out the good toys ONLY for those "underpriviledged" kids. Bullshit. Another thing is, they hand out those signs for people to hold up. After Oprah went inside, they took back the signs. Also, they had a ton of people running back and forth shouting "Oprah, Oprah, Oprah" in an attempt for people to start chanting her name for the cameras. What a sick world we live in.

That's a kind act and all, but bullshit. Why'd they have to pick our TRU?! I'd be mad if an "underpriveledged" child got a figure I wanted. If they had something like RA11 there, and one of those kids got a Eugene, you know they would just break it. Same goes for all the ML's. They'd probably choke on the gun acessories.

Oprah probably gave Toys R Us a nice chunk of change to close the store for her. I hate that woman for some reason something about her makes me dislike her.

Schwing! there were 7 Marvel Legends Deadpools, 4 Phoenix, 3 Ultimate Rhinos, 24 SpiderMan movie asst 3 Doc Ocks the workers actually put all the Doc Ocks in a case and put the case under the flaps. 14 WWE Dude Loves, tons of McFarlane variants, plus 10 of each of the 1 per case Marvel Legends 7 figures. The manager, and store director found out about it fired all the employees who were hoarding that stuff, who knows if any Marvel Legends chases were taken. most TRU managers clean out the valances on a daily basis

Toys R Us probably pulled out all the stops, and let them "Ebay" a few maskless Wolvies, too. ing Oprah.

Are you guys seriously pissed off becuase little kids, underprivileged little kids as you put it, got cool toys instead of you? That's just wrong. I was about to buy a CS3 Warrior the other day when I saw a kid eyeing it in my hand, so I passed it on to him. Hell, he was going to enjoy it ten times as much as I would. Try it sometime. It feels pretty good.
