I hope didn't spread confusion - I have a habit of doing that by accident it seems.
As for Reflector - it's a pity that the Generations Perceptor remould never got made - that had some elements that were quite suitable for a re imagining of the characters. Especially if they called them the "Reflector team" and named them individually and made each one basically the same colours but with a different colour accent a bit like much of evil Vicky is.
But as I keep saying we need Vs packs.

Why does HTS charge Tax if other retailers dont. Its not like there is a Hasbro office in every state (is there?)

It should be noted that Walgreens is notorious for their jacked-up prices, and normally I would have passed, but I had some points accrued on my Walgreens Rewards card that brought the total down to regular MSRP. The figures rang up for $19.99 each.
I asked a super friendly employee if they had more in the back. They didn't, and had actually just put these two out. I did however learn some good details about Walgreens distribution. They split cases and send the merchandise off to stores in the same region. So if you found one or two from a case, you might find the other two at the next closest Walgreens. They also said that distribution is based on demographics and sales reports. Meaning that, if you know a Walgreens is in say, a large residential area they may have a higher turn over on toy sales and are more likely to have newer merchandise, more often.

These things are still only worth $9.99 IMO.

What has been your success rate at waiting and still getting the figures you want? You have a strategy in terms of grabbing a few early and waiting on others? I'm still trying to figure out how to gauge which figures I can wait for to get a good discount, and which ones I should just snag when available at close to MSRP rather than taking a chance at saving a few bucks.
Yeah. I think so. Eventually.william-james88 wrote:nycPrime wrote:Spider 001 wrote:I won't pay $15.99 at Target. No way in hell I'll pay $19.99. I'll wait for Walmart & pay $14.94.

Just curious guys, I hear Hasbro Toy Shop is the way to go in the US if you want to pay the least possible, but do they get every figure that gets released?
