VA/DC/MD Finds

**mtriv73** · 03-31-2004

Frederick TRU has none. They do have 12" Garindin (sp?) wave if anyone is interested.

Claypool Hill Wal-MArt had Rappertunies and DoDonnas. C-Burg Wally World had Antillies and pegwarmers.

I just ordered 2 silver clones from amazon for 5.99 each. In my opinion, that beats paying $20 at TRU for a free one any day. (Especially since TRU hasn't had anything new in a long time.)

This just in from the "mixup in the stockroom" department -- TRU in Annapolis had nothing new, but they inexplicably had 4-5 of the same POTJ case out on the shelves. So if you're missing Ketwol, Ellorrs Maddok (sp?), Queen Amidala (Decoy), Imperial Commander, or the AOTC Preview Zam or Jango, you can pick them up for $4.99 a pop at the Annapolis TRU.

Mtriv73...just in case you didn't understand my message...you don't have to spend $20...they are selling them for 4.99 each...probably why they're out early, not to mention there's nothing of worth for anyone to spend $20 on.

Nothing against you ninja, but why would anyone want topay that much for a figure that is 3 years old? It wasnt like it was HTF, they just pegwarmed. Wonder if TRU ever heard of clearance?

**ClearNinja2000** · 04-01-2004

Perhaps my situation was unique, then -- I stopped collecting for a year or so, and had to play catch up with the entire POTJ line. I actually needed the Queen Amidala Decoy, and she goes for 7.99 - 10.99 at most web stores.

I apologize if this sort of news is frowned upon in this forum, but it seemed like a good opportunity to pick up some out-of-circulation figures without paying web-premium or Ebay prices.

No need toapologize clearninja, it just irks me that stores, especially retail will still charge full price for those when they were probably clearanced out 3 years ago. They find old stuff in the stock room and wham....they think its new or something.

I figured that was just a mix-up. I had heard that they were going to be free with a $20 purchase like the silver r2. Either way, I don't have to worry about driving out to TRU just to be dissappointed when they don't have anything. If gas keeps going up I may start buying everything online to cut down on

**jonthejedi** · 04-01-2004

I'm right there with you on gas prices...I can't afford to "scour" the countryside anymore. My job travels somewhat, but that's a whole other issue. I only get .20 a mile when I go over 60 miles round trip. Columbia Target had some remnants today of the Capt. Antilles wave...but no Tanus(as usual) or Tie pilot. Has anyone found or heard of Star Destroyer wave turning up in the tri-state...I know they've been found in other states, including PA?
