Sudden Figure Appearances

Posted in Action Figure Chatter

One of the Wal-Marts I usually get figures at is renovating so they moved all of their toy shelves to the sporting goods section and guess what I discovered: They had put out all of the Marvel Legends figures they had hidden around the store. I scored an Angel, Omega Red, and Black Panther. They had 85% of the Sentinel series. I was highly suprised as I intended to only get the Black Panther if they had it and was looking for one of the Superman figures.

I recently found LOTR figs at Zellers for 4 bucks each. Not really great ones but I got to round out my collection. I ran across the Giant Man series in Toys R Us and bought it all on the spot (had to go Ebay for Weapon X variant tho), since then they only have Sabertooth. Anywhere else its still Galactis. All I need now is a Green Goblin for Onslaught(they were just released here). I am really looking forward to the Hasbro Legends, just because I used to(and still do) love the GiJoes they made, and they deserve a shot. I still can't wait for Mojo figs, just for the Iron Man & Zemo. WalMart has nothing, not even SpiderMan anymore. I think Im curtailing my collecting, not entirley by choice, until I can start getting stuff here.

All of my area Wally Worlds got in that set also. Maybe Toy Biz is trying to get rid of all of its overstock before January

My sinister is still rotting away as a half-finished AOA Apocalypse custom

I think I can survive on half a liver...and what do I need a stomach for! I don't eat anything anyway! I'm a walking goldmine

Wait a second... They had all of the figures! I just forgot about some because I already bought them loose on eBay. I'm going back to get Mr. Sinister, Cyclops, Mystique, and Spidey and I can make me a Sentinel finally!









then sell it on eBay.

er... maybe not, I don't really have THAT much cash to shell out. I'm already using my kidney donation money .

I got my sentinel, gambit, rogue, and cyclops for 40 bucks even. The seller said the Sentinel had a loose arm and it popped out but it was fine when I got it! I think I'm going to have to sell it soon, I need fodder

You'd be surprised. Sometimes the parts sell for more than the whole of the BAFs.

85% of the figures? You don't mean 85% OFF the figures? If they had the whole set you could buy them and sell the sentinel to make your money back

They had a few Supergirls when I went to the Walmart but no cash left to buy any of them
