    Can anyone point me to how you've been searching these in PopFindr? UPC and SKU don't seem to work for me. Thanks, and sorry, both in advance.

    So Walmart shipped what might be Origins Trapjaw but thanks to FedEx not being able to make a three hour trip in one day it's not going to be here until tomorrow.

    Found the newest wave of the WWEternia releases.
    Mr. T was an obvious lock, but I was going to wait on Jake the Snake until I saw his action feature, which makes him arguably the best release to date.

    The bio/mythology around Mr. T is hilarious, too.

    Awesome! That is the only WWE figure I really want. Do you know if you can you track individual figure SKUs via Brickseek, or is it just one SKU for the whole wave/line?

    Walmart - I don't know about SKUs for Brickseek and whatnot, but if you want the UPCs:
    Mr. T: 8 87961 83856 5
    Jake: 8 87961 83848 0

    Well that's one long standing mystery solved(skip to 11 minutes to avoid a lot of needless intro).

    Has anyone really found the new MOTU Origin figures in stores yet? My Walmarts still just have He-Man, Skeletor, Teela, Evil-Lyn, and Beast Man.

    Also, a Sled Sky restock would be nice. I see Battle Cat everywhere now.

    Man you aren't kidding. There is so much fluff and self-aggrandizement in this video it's amazing. However, that seems pretty par for the course. While I've found this guy's videos to have a lot of good information, getting to it is a lot like searching for a complete figure at a flea market.

    Got the Grayskull ring in from Walmart.com. I wonder if you can connect it to the castle somehow. I think it will be a cool add on if you can.

    Pretty cool! That definitely appears to solve the biggest part of the mystery-where it came from? I would say that it’s still somewhat of a mystery as to why they produced a brown haired version of He-Man to begin with though. While I know, according to the video, that they marketed it as a Special Edition He-Man for the buy three, get one free offer, it still seems likely to me that the figure was something they had on hand, and they wanted to clear it out. I suppose it’s possible that they produced a brown haired He-Man just for that promotion, but if not, I wonder what it was originally intended for?

    Just got what might be a MEF form Walmart at normal price. Fingers crossed that my last two Walmart orders actually are Man E Faces and Trap Jaw.

    Found another display of the Wave 2 minis on a grocery trip today so I decided to bring Faker, Gold Armor Skeletor, He-Man, and the display home with me.
