bbi at Target

Good reason to start going back to Target! Good price, from the pics the articulation looks good-at least better than their earlier versions where, if you didn't run them under hot water first, their wrists would break off, twist their head-and that would fall off, etc. AND at least this goes to sho...

AND when I tried to ask a clerk about the XD figures...I still get that 'deer in the headlights' look...All I can do is sit here and and dream...and drool about all of you who can walk into those stores and find XD on the shelves....

The end of 1/18?

If sales on 1/18 are slow, maybe it's because in many parts of the country, like here in the Cleveland, Ohio area, you just can't find ANY XD on the shelves! Being a collector, I'm forced to buy it online, but for the average customer who walks down that aisle and sees nothing, no potential new cust...

End of 1/18 line?

Not if you ask the people at Power Team Elite! They've got some new amazing sets to come out, you can see some stuff at Small Blue Planet. While some may argue that their figures lack 'detail', they make up of it with the best articulated figures on the market! Plus prices that won't break your wall...

Went to these WM's here in Ohio: Elyria, Medina, N. Olmsted, Strongsville, Parma, Avon and found NOTHING as far as 21C figures go. Few had one or two planes, but NO FIGURES!!

Here in the Cleveland, Ohio area at WM's, I could NEVER find any 40th Anniversary Joes for the entire time these sets were released!! And that's 5 of 'em! NOT ONE! BUT, in some areas of the country, WM's were 'clearancing' the 40's. Then Hasbro goes and cancels these sets for lack of sales..????????...

My guess is they're letting Walmart distribute their website...which means that some people in some areas of the country will be able to get it while most of us will not be able to find it! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Actually it's not for lack of product, it's lack of distribution. Uneven distribution is the downfall and downright frustrating!
