Once again figures are making their way on the shelves before pre-orders are fulfilled. Despicable, disgusting, and pathetic behavior once again by Target. I've come to expect nothing less from them. Ugh, like clockwork you start. Dude, at least youβre getting them. How about not worrying because some stores got them a few weeks before you get your precious toys. You might want to take a little break from these things if crap like that is going to get you so worked up, because itβs really not healthy...at all. i've said the same thing to him. when you stress this much about a hobby...its time to find a new hobby I think patience is the key here. Donβt panic buy something that we donβt know the availability of yet. I think this is especially true of the Eddie since he is two per case. Even the Chase Valentine has dropped significantly in price lately. i think ringside getting stuff wicked early has spoiled a lot of people to the point where they freak out if they don't get their action figures right away. patience is a virtue that seems to have disappeared

Who are the idiots that are paying more than $20 for these? Gonna feel real dumb when theyβre on clearance for $13 lol. Feel bad for people that never see stuff, but Iβve got like 10 targets in the metro at least. If one doesnβt have them, another will. These collectors either have too much disposable income, or theyβre dumb, dumb as hell. they feel the need to be the first to get the figures. dunno why it matters so much

Warrior already seems like the hardest to find and thereβs people buying whole shippers...good lord. Hope to find one at retail. nothing new. they complain about scalpers, then buy out the whole stock

you suck it up and say "oh well". they're damn action figures, you don't NEED them I love when someone with over 2,000 posts on a figure message board tells someone theyβre just action figures lol 2000 posts in 18 years. theyβre still just action figures.

You went through all of that and convinced an executive of a company to personally send you a toy that hasnt even hit mass retail, only to find them anyways (before most i might add). Im sorry and not trying to cause an argument but as someone who has worked retail for 15yrs and a collector personally for 30+ yrs and a shared hobby with my son for 10yrs, it would seem you not only wasted your personal time, but also many others time. Sounds like the the perfect time to use the word sour grapes So your telling me I should have waited to try and find it at retail locally? And what happens if I never do?I went through a hard enough time trying to find chase valentine, donβt want to chance it with jake I did not waste my time, as a matter of fact I saved lots of time, all I did was make a phone call and talk to someone opposed to making multiple calls to rude employees when most of the time inaccurate popfindr stock goes up to find a chase jake that I might never find, this would probably go on for weeks, but a 50/50 chance of it actually paying off Iβve read your comment a few different times and still trying to find logic in your words and coming up with nothing I wanted something, I found it and got it, seems like a simple process lol I think you wasted more time with the comment then anything, but then again I ainβt no better cause Iβm replying I think someone said I was being entitled as well, I asked and received, nothing entitled about that you suck it up and say "oh well". they're damn action figures, you don't NEED them

Iβd do ring gear Acolytes like reDRagon in E79/80, have them in separate series so they can be the chase; regular version would be Acolytes with the chest paint and pentagram tights, chase would be APA playing card tights you know mattel would switch the matching figs as the chase. bradshaw would be ministry regular, apa chase and then vice versa for farooq

i've never cared for basics either way, but seeing the old style makes me realize just how crappy the new ones are

the agents and refs knew to run to the room, but didn't realize that was orton pointing them to the door? inconspicuous 6'5 janitor that smells like axe body spray like...if they saw it all happen on a monitor, they should've immediately realized that wasn't a random janitor

so this isn't figure related, but it is tmnt related...any of you guys hear about the casey jones: livewire fan film being made? looks like it's gonna be a fun little movie. casey is my favorite turtles character, so i'm pretty pumped for it to happen Hadn't heard about that but that's definitely cool. Casey is my favorite, too (well, favorite non-Turtle). thereβs a kickstarter that has more info about it. iβm on my phone and donβt have the link handy, but it should be easy to find if you search it
