Now, after a couple days of searching, only one of 10 Wal Marts in a 40 mile radius from my house any of the new Indiana Jones figures. Hopefully these will show up in bulk at a later date and not be like some of the current Star Wars and GI Joe releases with only sporadic distribution...

Picked up this figure today. It was my first purchase from the IJ line. Trying to decide if I'll pick up anymore.

I thought I would be the LAST member to get one of Vogel.
I was out Saturday running a few errands and deceided to stop at one of my local WMs. I ran into the WM to the Indy Jones section. I looked at the overflowing pegs of the 1st wave robed Belque, Indy Jones, etc and saw a IJTLC Indy figure with Submachine gun. I stared looking and this Indy figure was hanging in front of each of the top pegs. I started pulling off the figures behind it and found:
-Elsa
-Henry Sr.
and low and behold VOGEL!!!
Only one Vogel on all those pegs...
Look a little more and found young Indy in the boy scout uniform. I think the promo pic was better than the actual figure in person. And besides, what would I make out him? A group of Boy Scouts take on the German Army at Bastone?
I put back all the figs but Henry Sr. and VOGEL!
(Elsa was hard to put back...cute figure - pun intended :wink:)

Maybe they will start including more than ONE Vogel per case?
Anyway- we got'em in KY!

Think I might have to go to ebay to get Vogel... I came across part of the new wave last week, but went through over 100 figures with little luck. I was probably scooped by some other collector, but I really hope these figures don't do the Star Wars thing...

I found one Vogel at Walmart earlier this week. Along with 3 others from this wave.

I fear there is a cooling off of people buying Indy figures, so there is a lot of the first wave clogging the pegs.
If they can't sell these they won't order any more, so I think Vogel might be becoming scarce to find.

Still haven't found Dr. Jones Sr. yet.
