Where are you buying toys on April 2nd?

[JediTricks]

April 2nd, 2005, is the official release of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith merchandise across the country. Lego and Hasbro have large amounts of ROTS products already in store warehouses waiting for the big release date. Some stores will be doing another "Midnight Madness" opening on April 1st while others will open their stores at regular hours but with special events. 2 chains even have their own exclusive Hasbro figures which will go on sale that day and supplies of which are already expected to dry up quickly. Some stores are even giving out coupons and other price incentives to convince Star Wars collectors to buy the swag there and save a few bucks.

So which chain are you expecting to focus on for your toy-buying needs this April 2nd?

TRU for sure.
It's become a tradition of sorts.

I'm going wally world all the awy on this one. They got the far lower prices, more stores i can run around to and i'll get my employee discount, which i'll DEFINATELY need. Should be a fun night though!! Midnight Madness, here i come!

I voted for "Other".

I'll hit Wally World(s) at midnight,
Target at 8:00 am,
then TRU (if necessary),
then K-Mart (if necessary),
then KayBee (if necessary),
and finally, Shopko (if necessary).

If I hit'em all, it'll be about 275 miles.

Whew!

i think i will hit target first just so i can get the exclusive Vader(lava) figure. but i usually go to TRU. i used to work there, so i have a friend that is going to hold all the figures for him and me. it's good to know people.

I'll try to get to Target the morning of April 2 to get my claim ticket for the Lava Darth Vader exclusive. But, I'm sure I'll go by my two Wal-Mart Supercenters in town and get some things on the Midnight Madness sale on April 1. Then, I'll hit the one Toys 'R Us store in town last. So it will go like this for me:
1. Wal-Mart Supercenter #1 - midnight madness
2. WM Supercenter #2 - midnight madness
3. Target - morning of April 2 for Lava Darth Vader exclusive
4. Toys 'R Us for any other things I didn't find at the above stores that I want.

I'll be hitting TRU, WM, and Target but since I'll hit TRU first and spend the most money there that's what I voted for. I'll go there for the MM, then at 8 head over to Target for the exclusive Vader, then possibly later in the afternoon go to WM to get whatever I may need or just to check out the tent sale.

I'm doing Wal-Mart in my own town at midnight, then if I feel ambitious I will travel north for an hour and 15 minutes to the Target where my sister works to get that Vader but if I'm too tired, she'll coup one for me anyway.

Hey JT, what's the other exclusive ? I only know of the Targy figgie . . .

[Kidhuman]

I am hitting Target for Lava Vadetr then heading to WM for the rest.

Hey JT, what's the other exclusive ? I only know of the Targy figgie . . .

This is JT's twin brother except that I look alot better, am taller, and I decided to stay in the womb for 6 years longer. Just letting you know that the other exclusive is the TRU Holo Yoda.
