Oopps Hey these things are awesome how hard are the older waves to find in stores still ?

Sad to say nearly impossible.

They are very much a limited offering and very much in High Demand.

You'll still see them on occasion at a collectible toy show or at flea markets but always at a mark up. Series 1, last time I saw them, was going for about $12 per pack unopened and undecoded.

Usually very hard. but I live in California, and at 3 Local malls they have this store called "Xtreme Toys" or something like that. I went to one last week and they had at least one box of the previous series (Except series one) full of unopened figs. They had 3 unopened series one figs, but I felt each of them and they were not anything I wanted (I missed all of Series one). They were 3.99 each I believe. They also had open figs all marked up to like $12 each and complete sets as well.

I was at Wal mart and my girlfriend spotted a lone series 3 pack we grabbed it! When I got home I was so excited to see it was the man in the monkey suit......but his monkey helmet was crushed beyond repair. These things are great but I am not seeing any older ones.

Just found a bunch of series 4 ! Only one I did not get was the hazmat guy ! I got doubles of Wolfman,the hockey guy and the Giesha if anybody wants to trade. Target does not have older waves right ? Do they just clearance them ? Just wondering I am only finding older ones at WM.

I found a handful of wave 5 at Fry's Electronics.

I got the Fitness Teacher, Royal Guard x2, Detective, Zoo Keeper and Cleopatra.

I've got a few extras left over in my Swap Meet thread if anyone is still looking ...

Just scored like 10 pounds of LEGOS ! Lady said $5at a yard sale all I saw was Spongebob and Patrick and was like SURE! lol digging through gathering all the minifigures then gonna dump the blocks on EBay !

This is where I go for my minifigure needs.. http://www.bricklink.com/store.asp?p=PBD

They are great, and have a bunch of all the various series of minifigures for sale. A lot of them are a pretty good prices.

Series 6 is out! After searching through a whole box at a TRU I found one lone Roman Soldier!

Im wondering if these will ever hit clearance-- every store by me has boxes and boxes of these left...

Yeah, the TRU I hit at lunch today had 8 unopened cases of wave 5 sitting on the shelf right across from a slightly over-full gravity dump on the endcap.

Plus, there were 2 more cases behind the counter at Customer Service.

At this rate, I won't be seeing wave 6 locally for about 6 months

The lego store near me has started putting Minifigure sets into the build a figure bins. Early series too, I found pieces from the Vampire, mexican wrestler, and mime amongst others. I really wish that they had a Zombie in there..... the only one I regret not getting (I didn't even know these existed at the time, and now are way too expensive).

Its nice that there are boxes of these in every wal mart clearance aisle-- but not on clearance...

Meijer has lego minifigures on sale-- 2 for 4.-- (or 1 for 2.00 if the math is too hard)

I know this applies to Series 5 (as I picked up one this AM)-- not sure if it will carryover to series 6-- it looked like this sale went through 2/28
