How is the fwoosh these days?

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Tue Sep 20, 2011 8:09 pm

Yeah he still posts over there.

Same as it ever was, I only post in the Dr Who related topics Laughing

Fuck me dead I need to get to Tesco

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Wed Sep 21, 2011 4:38 pm

You & me both Laughing

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Wed Sep 21, 2011 6:28 pm

Just got back from Tesco. Discogod was correct, I found and bought Cyclops. They had loads of SM 2099, 1 x Cap, both Scarlet Spiders and apocalypse. I think its a case assortment of wave 12, 13 and 14 and was heavy on the spidermans. So fuck knows if Cable and Dr Doom will be found.

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Wed Sep 21, 2011 6:37 pm

I'll keep my eye's open for Cable if you want. Which Cap was it?

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Wed Sep 21, 2011 7:05 pm

Yes please Fox and Skaar if that's okay? I'm gonna go to as many tesco extras as I can tomorrow there's another 3 around here. Anything you want me to look for same for you LT?

It was modern or ultimates definitely not FA. Erm.. just reading that post on Fwoosh again he said he found "mu apocalypse, ga cap, modern thor, doc strange, skarr and 2099 spidey, man that skarr" So that would mean wave 7 Thor and Wave 2 Cap included in the cases scratch

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Wed Sep 21, 2011 7:38 pm

Yeah no worries.

I'm only after Falcon, Dr Strange & possibly Doom I'm also going on a toyhunt tomorrow Tesco Extra will be the first stop Laughing

Hasbro do put older figures in their case assortments.

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Wed Sep 21, 2011 9:06 pm

It'll be interesting to see what we find.

Yeah I know I just didn't realise they went back that far.

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Thu Sep 22, 2011 11:03 am

Some cat on another site says he found Skaar, Strange, Falcon and Doom for £2.50 each in Asda

My Asda usually have sod all but at that price I think it'll be worth checking.

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Thu Sep 22, 2011 4:11 pm

It was an interesting hunt the only place I saw the full wave was FP, who were in the process of unpacking a wave of GI Joe: POC when I went in, picked up the Falcon.

Only one of the Tescos I went in had any sign of them & it wasn't the Extra, picked up Dr Strange who for some reason came with a Thanos stand. Laughing

The Entertainer had the Lizard wave of Spidey figs.

TK Maxx had in four DCUC Dr Midnight's priced at £5.99

Nothing in Asda except MU wave 7 & a lone Cable which I picked up for you IMF only rung up at a fiver.

Brilliant! Thank you Fox you're a legend! Let me know how much I owe you and how you'd like me to pay you Very Happy

I went to two Tescos tonight found Strange in the 1st one and Skaar in the 2nd both purchased. I haven't seen Doom yet. Any figures in FP that haven't been found already?

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Thu Sep 22, 2011 7:46 pm

Just Dr Doom & Falcon, How is Skaar he looked much better than the pictures I've seen?

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Thu Sep 22, 2011 7:58 pm

He's looking a bit grumpy. I would be too if I'd been sitting in Tesco all week.

I love the figure way better than the ML one. I think his a body is a retooled Apocalypse, I've not got him out yet so that's all I know.

Does the Falcon figure have thigh swivels? I didn't think to look earlier.

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Thu Sep 22, 2011 8:09 pm

Larger characters seem to use the larger Juggernaut/ WW Hulk/ Apocalypse body nowadays thankfully.

He doesn't sadly, his wings are removable though which is a nice touch.

I did notice the packaging is now multilingual which is a good sign for future releases.

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Thu Sep 22, 2011 8:54 pm

Hopefully its a good sign. I'm being sceptical but I think the only reason they've turned up is because its the run up to xmas, the toys aisles are double what they normally are. Still I'm not complaining its a bit like the old days again.

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Thu Sep 22, 2011 9:11 pm

You could be right, it just seems like a lot of unnecessary work for a one off to me.

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Fri Sep 23, 2011 1:52 pm

Found Falcon & Doom in Tescos today.

Also you'll need to PM me your address.

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Fri Sep 23, 2011 2:34 pm

Did you buy Doom?

Done. No turning up unexpected!

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Fri Sep 23, 2011 3:02 pm

Yep, I just need the FF now Laughing

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Fri Sep 23, 2011 3:27 pm

Get the fantastic 3 boxset. Sod Human Torch he's dead anyway.

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Fri Sep 23, 2011 3:53 pm

I will when I find one, I'm still waiting for the Avengers set to turn up as well.

Why what's happened? Laughing

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Fri Sep 23, 2011 7:55 pm

FP's website is claiming it was out last week but I haven't seen it in store yet.

Subject: Re: UK findings and buying thread Fri Sep 23, 2011 8:21 pm
