Marvel Action Figures at Fred's and Family Dollar.

Posted in Action Figure Chatter

I don't know how many Fred's stores there are in the United States (let alone how many Family Dollar stores, or if the stock for each store is different or the same). I know there's one of each in my hometown here. Earlier today, I went to Fred's and found that they had some of the Marvel action figures for both the Captain America and Thor movies, the 3 3/4 inch kind (not sure of the pricing, but normally Fred's has the G.I. Joe sized action figures for about $3.50, before sales tax). A week ago, I went to the Family Dollar and found 3 3/4 inch Marvel Universe action figures ($8 a piece, I think). Like I said, I don't how many stores there are for either of them, let alone if they have the same stock. But if you have either one or both stores in your area, I recommend checking them out if you're needing any of them.

UPDATE: I went to Fred's again earlier today and I finally spotted the price for the figures for both the Thor and Captain American movie figures. The pricing they list for them is $12 a figure. It's not as cheap as they sell some of the DC Universe action figures (animated style), Batman (animated style) and G.I. Joe action figures (in fact, you'd probably get them cheaper at Wal-Mart, possibly on clearance), but if you'd needing some real quick and Fred's is closer to you than your nearest Wal-Mart, this may be the best bet for those that can't make it to a near-by Wal-Mart (again, depending on if the stock and stores).
