I found 2 Gambit sets and 2 Adam Warlock sets at the Walmart near my house for 14.96. Picked up an Adam Warlock set on Wednesday. Decided to hold off on Gambit for now but when I went back yesterday to pickup my wife's prescription all those sets were gone.
Finally picked up a regular blue and black Fantastic Four box set at that same Walmart.
Bought a Nick Fury figure online from this overseas dealer. Paid a little more than what a year long online marvel comics sub would have cost me but he shipped it free and it was at my house in a week which was amazing. Now if only I army built those Shield agents... Lucky ba@#$^erd lol

Looks like it's time to hunt these down.
Guess I'll hit a couple stores tonight.

I guess it's my fault for getting great deals for the Sinister/Gambit and Thanos/Warlock CP's (less than retail including shipping). I've had them since January I believe, and now I have nothing to hunt for.

Aside from the Future Foundation Spidey, I want all the other figures in that wave which I believe is She-Hulk, Scarlet Witch, Punisher and that updated Hulk. The wave b4 that one definitely want Beta Ray Bill (hopefully I'll be able to have a completed Annihilators team on my shelf soon  ) and Beast.

With Thundercats cancelled, Young Justice cancelled, DCUC cancelled, me being completely caught up with Joes until the movies stuff, and the next ML wave probably not due out until the end of summer, I have no reason to go in the toy aisles now.

I do hope they still release the Slythe 4-inch figure and the Modern Tygra 6-inch figure for the modern Thundercats line. Obviously there are so many characters to do in both the modern and classic line but I hope we at least still get those two products.
It's funny I grew up loving DC more and with JLU I was able to get a pretty good animated collection, and then YJ was expanding that for me but with DCIH, YJ being cancelled, JLU getting the last figures out there, this is the first time in a while I won't be collecting any DC line. I'll pick up the occasional figure for the DC Sub (bat related characters) but that's it.
I'm getting more and more into the MU line. I can't wait to get some of the new Joe product but there has been so many repaints, exclusives and whatever for GIJOE it's hard to keep up.
I can't wait to get Nova for the MU line he is my #1 most requested character and I'm enjoying the new version of Nova on the Ultimate Spiderman show so hopefully we'll get a figure of him as well.

I go in the toy aisle all the time... especially on the peg-warmers.

You're telling me, man. Things are looking grim. It's sad that so much space is taken up by that half assed POS Avengers line. If ever there is a line that deserves to fail, it's that one. And that would only make things worse for us. It's a no-win situation. And it seems like it bumped back a bunch of the MU stuff. The Joe stuff should be hitting real soon so that's something to look for, though the cheap-ass articulation on the drivers is disturbing. And I still need to find the new Thundercats stuff, still need to find the last two Young Justice guys to finish the HOJ. It sure is a crappy time to love toys these days, with Target jacking up pricing, lines dying, companies cutting down on quality, expensive gas to fuel the fruitless hunts, etc.
