    Curious if anyone's found these guys sealed in package. I happen to have an extra set, but I spent a tank of gas going to get them across the state. Just guaging the interest in them for now before I decide to sell or ebay. I've actually only seen one set of them on ebay, way back in September or October, so I imagine they're pretty hard to come by. I know I've been waiting for my KBs to get them for months and they still haven't shown up.

    They're no doubt coming in greater numbers, but I'm certainly sick of waiting on them. PM on the way!

    I would really be interested if you still have them. They aren't even coming to Canada as far as I know.

    Okay, so I see 90 hits on this thread. I guess that guages the interest pretty well. I also haven't had any offers over cost and a few bucks for gas, so I'm gonna pop these guys up on ebay this weekend. Keep an eye out if you want to get them!

    I'll make a new post in the appropriate forum when they're up.

    Thanks!

    Your post did not say to send offers and unafraid did ask you how much you wanted for them. Seeing that he asked first and you did not say that they were still up for grabs I'm not going to cut in and start sending offers. Why start this post in the exchange if all you were going to do was dangle them in front of us and then sell on ebay if enough people responded to your offer that you had some for sale?

    Yeah, I didn't say anything because I didn't want to impact Robowang's potential sale. I started to get panicky about these guys since I hadn't been able to find them for so long - but when I checked the local KB outlet there were ten of each on the pegs and another stack on the floor beneath them. Thought about buying a half dozen of each for eBay but figured I'd never get my money back.

    However, it does look like they're going to the outlets instead of the stores for the most part, so if you don't have an outlet nearby it may still be a challenge to locate them.

    So WTF, did all of these just skip the stores and go straight to the outlet malls or something? I saw plenty of the last three sets of KB exclusive deluxe twins (Jhiaxus/Megabolt, Scourge/Bludgeon, Demolishor/Cyclonus). They showed up in small numbers, grew into large stacks..and them promptly disappeared suddenly each time, but they weren't what I'd consider hard to find. I've never seen these latest two...don't like/want 'em like all the others..but it's still curious.

    Well if anyone is out to one of these stores again and is able to pick up a a set I would appreciate it. They are the last two I need to finish off the Uni collection and the buggers aren't going to make it up here to Canada. Just send me a PM if you are able to find any.
