Sio Bibble & Motti Waves

Dinger reports finding the Sio Bibble wave and the Motti wave at the K-Mart in Hartford. It looks like K-Mart is getting to be the place to look for stuff. Pretty hard to believe. I haven't found anything in the Madison area at a K-Mart.

Skiff with Luke

Glenn M. reports getting a Skiff at the Target in Greenfield (south of Milwaukee). He had to ask someone to look in back, but they had them and allowed him to buy one. He reports that they come 6 to a case and that they are much bigger (and better) than he thought. Think Deluxe Bantha sized, but not as deep. I tried asking at the Madison area Targets, but both stores say that they don't have any.

Monday, April 3rd:

KB Toys Clearance

KB Toys east in Madison got in tons of clearance stuff in with the most notable being the Blastshield Luke wave. And they did have a couple of R2-D2s with "Imperial" slides! There is a story that goes along with these. A guy came in a couple of days ago looking to buy all of the Freeze Frame figures that they were going to get in (approx. 23 cases). He had already made the same arrangement with the KB in Rockford and he most likely headed over to the west side store after he was turned down at the east side. Anyway, now the east side store would like me to spread the word that there are lots of figures to be had and that they didn't make a bad decision by not selling them to the one guy. Following is the rest of the stuff that I saw.

Blastshield Luke Wave: $2.99 (many cases)

8D8 / Ugnaught Wave: $2.99

Royal Guard Green Card Wave: $2.99

Jabba's Dancers Wave 3-Packs: $6.99

Beast Assortment: $5.99

Deluxe Figures: $3.99

Lots More, Too Much To Remember....

TRU Clearance

TRU east in Madison got in 15 more cases of the Luke Bespin wave. The current price is $2.97 each. Also, if you were looking for the "Saelt-Marie" errors, there seems to be plenty of them mixed in.
