What scale is that? I collect 3.75" astromechs. The red one looks familiar from my collection already. Entertainment Earth is doing an exclusive 3.75" astromech multipack this November, I've already got it on preorder.

Toys R Us marks up their prices on a lot of stuff. Most notably Lego.

Hopefully that set means a Black Series R5-D4 at some point soon.

It's weird to still have an international retail store marking up prices in the Internet age.

They may lose the internet-savvy manchild dollars to places that don't mark up their crap so bad but they're always going to make it up with people who just need a present for a kid and don't want to check a dozen websites and wait for it to be shipped to their home.

Well not really, their financials have been pretty bad and they had to go private. I meant that their primary competitors, Walmart and Target don't do it. It's not just the internet.

Just anecdotally whenever I'm in there there's always a few ladies that just look like aunts, buying something in a huge box for someone's birthday. A Lego set or some kind of child conveyance product. They never seem to give a poo poo about the price. You know what I mean? You ever looked at a person and just known they were an aunt?

Our target did their reset today. I was in there when hey we're just starting on the marvel aisle but they had not yet stocked new stuff. Stopped back by like 2 hours later and they had everyone but rogue and dead pool of course. I'm sure one of the employees got them before they ever hit the floor. I did pick up one of the new 6" power rangers figures as well which is surprisingly nice, great articulation on it.

I don't know who else might have been looking but the Marvel Select Carnage looks like it has started to get a second wave coming out. The price went down fairly drastically on Amazon and I managed to find it in my local comic shop. It's such a fantastic figure with a ton of cool detail. Way better then the kinda boring Marvel legend I bought a long time ago.

Yay, I finally got Black Panther and Nick Fury. My local Krogers of all place had them. Must just got them in as they had every figure for it and the Absorbing Man wave in, including Spider-Gwen. https://twitter.com/Rirse/status/760513671143497732 Rirse fucked around with this message at 17:33 on Aug 2, 2016 |

Hastings was a cool store. Don't have one near me, but I bought a bunch of the Toynami Futurama figures for next to nothing on a vacation years ago.

Hastings also owns MovieStop, which is also going out of business and also sells a lot of figures and collectibles. I rarely found anything cool there, but they sometimes gave me store credit or cash for DVDs I culled from my collection, and that's even more of a rarity these days.

Has anybody else's Amazon X-Men Legends orders shipped? The Rouge and Deadpool I have on order were supposed to ship Monday but nothing's happening with them and word on the street is that Amazon didn't receive enough inventory to cover pre-orders.

Why cookie Rocket posted:Mine haven't. I'd say give it another week as contacting Amazon may screw up your order, but I'd expect them to cancel it out. What's the point in pre-ordering through them if they can't fulfill the order? This is the third time I've pre-ordered something through Amazon and they weren't able to deliver.

As an employee I've been way too scared to do this myself but I'll just leave this fun fact right here: quote:Within Amazon is a certain type of e-mail that elicits waves of panic. It usually originates with an annoyed customer who complains to the company’s founder and chief executive officer. Jeff Bezos has a public e-mail address, jeff@amazon.com. Not only does he read many customer complaints, he forwards them to the relevant Amazon employees, with a one-character addition: a question mark. I'd add that the "ticking bomb" is also radioactive, on fire, and attached to your weenus but otherwise the above is 100% accurate.

Imagine you can sell them off pretty easily. The box is $50 (hilarious since that droid three pack I linked earlier is 55), but there is a 15% coupon that starts in a few days that I can get applied when it active that takes it down to 35 after the employee discount. You probably get the coupon from this week ad for Toys R Us or from the mailer that was sent out.
