Can’t be a Hasbro spy, he’d have wepaons, better articulation and paint.

Hey Scott, not to belabor the point, but you say you got the Oct/Nov date for the GL 6 Pack from Comic Con? But, in the very image you posted the placard says August.

Was the later date from a conversation? Shelf tags have already popped up for this set at many TRUs.

The mysterious armored guy is supposed to be a LexCorp trooper. I think that with a new head and a repaint, it could be a modern Checkmate soldier.

Does anybody know what the redecoed Luthor from the 3-pack is supposed to look like?

Besides, you make it sound like you’ve seen nothing when you’ve seen almost everything, even if you count those 2. I haven’t even seen Guy or Capt Marvel at Target yet. (I’ve seen plenty at Toys R Us, but I refuse to pay their inflated prices for them.)

I don’t think they were in the packs at first. They’re just starting to show up.

No, I have yet to see a Black hand or an Atom in person. Are they really that short packed?

Tekwych,

To my knowledge nothing past the first six and the two three packs have hit the shelves yet.

Actually it sounds like you found all of the initial releases.

These are just too rare in NM. So far about half of my Targets have stocked them and both TRUs but the only things I have found are Captain Marvel, Adam Strange, Zoom, Guy Gardner and the Flash and GCPD 3 packs. Nothing else seams to have hit here and I am not seeing re-stocks yet.

I may have to give up buying local and pick up the cases on line.

Not positive, but I’m pretty sure that they’re just re-issues of figures released elsewhere since that what the other 2-packs will be (eg. Captain Marvel/Black Adam).

See, I didn’t even know about that Flash/Reverse Flash two-pack.

However, are you sure the Flash isn’t Barry and the Reverse-Flash isn’t Eobard Thawne?

By: Scott

Scott — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 23:04:09 +0000

Meant to mention that the Flash 2-pack is with Reverse Flash…

There are ways to avoid some of the duplicates if you’re lucky enough to find everything. You could just get Bizarro in the 3-pack with Supergirl and WG, and get Superman in the Defense of Metropolis 8-pack. You can get Golden Age Flash with the 2 Rogues and modern Flash in the upcoming Toys R Us 2-pack.
BTW, does anyone know if everything other than the singles and 3-packs are Toys R Us exclusive, or just certain ones?

And I keep telling people, that ‘mysterious armored guy’ is a spy. A Cobra spy. A Hasbro spy. That’s right, he’s snuck in from the Hasbro display to ferret out corporate secrets.

“What am I gonna do with doubles of the Rogues?”

Mod them into giant HeroClix to act out the classic SuperFriends episode “Giants of Doom”.

I believe ToyGuru stated that the Question sans coat was a chase for that 3-pack.

Also, one of the SWAT you have as Metropolis has “GCPD” on his head…Gotham City.

Peace,

Chip

Not happy about variants being in 3 packs. Singles, I’m cool with but what the H am I gonna do with doubles of the Rogues?

Scott,

The new issue of Tomarts (12″ Indy cover) that came out today showed updated versions of Bizarro and Flash (Jay) that are indeed variants in their respective 3 packs. No date was given…

I’m a HUGE fan of this line, but I’m displeased that I’ll end up with duplicate figs just to get Bizarro and Flash.

Where did you get the new Oct/Nov date for the TRU Green Lantern 6 pack?
