Found all 6 today, got Iron Man and Herc.

I just got back from the walmart by me and I got myself an Ultimate Iron Man and Hercules...all 6 were there, and only 1 full set it seems, but I didn't want them, nor do I care about the BAF.

After starting my new job, I don't want to hunt for figures anymore. Lots of wasted time that can be better spent doing other things. So I have gone to the websites. I ordered a set of 6 from the Mojo Series and a case from BBTS. Wanted to mix it up a bit so I could judge the differences.

I guess I'll be buying 2 cases.

nothing here in NW IL

Since BAFs are getting smaller, a nice 8" Odin would be cool.

the hulk/leaders are always the last to go, but they don't stick around for too long either.

i know exactly what you mean, but the shelf isn't wide enough, and I don't want to see the backs of them either. But an excellent idea that I hope to one day create. That was actually my inspiration for how I have my guys set up right now.

I REALLY like that idea, thanks!

I must have that psylocke soon.

I I'll have to look into that, thanks

I'm arranging them so it makes more sense. Juggs is in front looking to take down colossus and beast, and I have the long range guys in the back sort of a thing.

why is it ridiculous because 1 collector happens to work there and he beat the rest of the collectors, it's not like he's a Doctor, people stocking the toy aiels don't have a hypocratic oath to swear too, the mans a collector, he saw that he wanted, he took it. why should he be forced to pass on the things he wants just because he has access to them before you? Note how I said taking the figures from the first few shipments - this doesn't just mean a set or 2, I'm talking multiple sets like the WM employees in my area. If they want a set, fine by me. But when you have them putting multiple sets on layaway whenever a case comes in, that's when I have an issue. I agree, I honestly don't think there is anything wrong with those that work at a store getting first crack at a case of something. If they are getting paid only $8 an hour, then I doubt there buying case upon case up from the store...because they just don't have that kind of cash, and really the turn around on doing that sort of thing... isn't worth it. It's kinda silly that people on here, honestly think there's a problem with it, as if you wouldn't do the same thing. If there scaliping, it's one thing (and then we should complain about bad management at the store, with who they hire, and how much they buy internally) but if there just buying because there a collector, well I don't think anyone has any right to say that they can't do that. You want figures first? a few choices... buy a case off the net, get in good with stock people at a store...where they can hook you up, get to the store everyday bright and early... and hope that you'll have a shot... or go to the bay. Honestly, it's quite stupid. just my opinion...lol In my case, they are scalping...and my other point was that they don't deserve anything because of their meager salary.

I keep most MOC but also buy extras to open for the ones I actually want to display

my lack of artistic talent says that will be very difficult for me to do.
