    That's not a price drop, that's clearance. Clearance is regional at all Target stores, so yours may vary, but the POTP line will be marked down and moved out of stores as resets occur in January for the Siege line to take a spot in the aisles.

    Weird story from a couple days ago. I went to foothill ranch target with the intent to get Xmas presents and ended up finding a shaow panther at fucking target. IIshook the box to check if it was realy and it sounded Ilike legos. I still tried to buy it but it obviously wasn't in the system. A customer service employee took a look at it for me and told me it wasn't supposed to have been accepted a same return in the first place and he couldn't sell it to me. He did pop open the box to reveal a loose shadow panther complete inside though.

    Who the hell is leaving MPs in California Targets?! Was this supposed to be a Christmas present for whoever finds them?

    I believe it's the same person since they're in the same general area. I'm not sure why they're doing that or if any of the figures are in bad condition, but I know the panther sounded like it was broken somewhere when i moved the box around.

    Also unrelated, but has anyone seen unicronus/SG hot rod? I was gonna get the one in foothill but it was picked up.

    Hello, my wife and I are visiting Los Angeles for new years. We're staying in Burbank. Are there any good collector shops worth visiting?

    We went down to Little Tokyo and I found some cool anime stores. But they mostly carried gunpla and anime figures with tiny TF sections.

    Happy New Year to you all!

    If you're up there, the Frank and Son warehouse is gonna be open on Saturday morning at 9am. Try to get there early to beat the awful parking. It's a swapmeet thing for collectibles. There's a fuckton of scalpers and bullshit prices but there's also a lot of neat oddities and sometimes you get great finds.

    Saturdays 9am-3pm, Wednesdays 5pm-9pm. Even if you don't get anything I highly recommend checking it out. It's basically a biweekly miniature convention. I can't stress enough about going early on saturdays to beat parking/going near closing on wednesdays. Parking is fucking ass.

    I second Frank and Son if you are visiting LA. Also, Cape & Cowl Collectibles, and My D-Pins & Collectibles.
