Since there are several members on the board from Texas, I thought that it might be best to list what we're looking for and what's available in our area. Below is what I've seen in San Marcos, Buda, and south Austin. Let me know if I can help anyone out!

Wal-Mart (Buda) Tons of Star Wars Clone Wars figures; Yoda, Kit Fisto, Mace Windu, various Clone Trooper commanders etc. Also, they had the new Green Arrow and Plastic Man from Batman: Brave and the Bold. A few DCUC Wave 7, mainly Blue Beetle and Booster Gold, a couple of Big Barda helmet variants.

Wal-Mart (South Park Meadows, south Austin) A lot of Marvel Universe from Waves 1-4, including Red Hulk, Gray Hulk, and one Daredevil.

Target (San Marcos, South Park Meadows) No new JLU, just the same old three packs. A lot of DCUC Wave 4 Cyborgs and a few Blue Beetle, Captain Cold, and Booster Gold.

Wants
Bruce Wayne-Batman-Warhawk
Cheetah
DCUC Wave 9: Wildcat, Mantis, Black Canary

If anyone in the Austin or Central Texas area is interested, there is a new Target opening next week in Kyle, TX. I'm hoping they'll have DCUC Wave 9 and the new JLU three packs.

I see some Wave 10 finally came here, but nothing good was left. Having vehicle problems and haven't been to Wal-Mart as often.

Still no wave 10 here in North Dallas/Plano/Frisco/Allen.

Wave 8 and 9 are available sporadically.

The JLU Waller/Superfriends/Blackhawks 3 packs are popping up pretty regularly.

Here is what I was able to find in San Marcos, TX today.

Target: Almost all of the singles from the first six Marvel Universe lines minus Vision, Jean Grey, Warpath, Daredevil, and Bullseye. No Secret Wars two packs, DCUC, and only three or four Infinite Heroes. Only a few Star Wars Legacy figures. Plenty of Waller, Blackhawk, and Superfriends JLU three packs.

Wal-Mart: Not sure who's collecting this line on the board but there are a ton of Star Wars: The Clone Wars for $6 each. The only two figures missing from the past two waves were Captain Argyus and Luminara. Unfortuantely, no Wave 10 for DCUC collectors; I haven't seen these in the Austin area yet. Not a lot of Marvel Universe either. If anyone is looking for Clone Wars let me know. I've got plenty of Clone cash left :D

Post your want lists and let's try to help one another out. Thanks! Merry Christmas!

Want

Star Wars: The Clone Wars

Captain Argyus

Marvel Universe

Daredevil
Bullseye

JLU

Captain Boomerang-Captain Cold three pack
Metallo three pack
Cheetah three pack

So has anyone found any of the new 3 packs in Austin. I found an Eclipso 6 pack by my house but that was all they had new. I asked if they had any new 3 packs and all they had in the entire store were 4 fire and ice 3packs which have been there for a year.

I haven't seen these at the Target in San Marcos, TX or at South Park Meadows in Austin. I'll have to try there for the new six packs.

So I went to a few more Targets today and still found nothing. What is it about Austin that none of the stores have really anything that the rest of Texas seem to have. I just saw my very first wave DCUC 8 and 9 figures today as well. To bad they were ones I already bought off of E-bay, Deadshot and Dr. Fate.

If you are in the East Texas area, Wave 11 has hit Walmart. I found it at the Walmart on 281 in Longview, the Walmart in Kilgore and the Walmart off Loop 323 in Tyler.

The Target in Kyle, TX has 11 of the new JLU consisting of the Green Arrow/Star Sapphire wave while the Target in Austin, TX at South Park Meadows has the new Iron Man 2 figures.

I'm not sure if anyone is interested but the Target at 5621 N. I-35 had four complete sets of Wave 3 JLU figures. I took a complete set to trade and an extra Martian Manhunter, leaving fourteen left. Also, there were only two three packs left, hopefully clearing some room for the new ones.

Not sure if anyone is interested but the Target at 5621 N. I-35 had two of the Nightwing three packs along with one each of Metallo, Flash Rogues, and the Weather Wizard/Livewire.

Also, TRU at Parmer Lane and I-35 had a ton of the Star Wars Legacy EU wave except for the Darktrooper and Spacetrooper.
