    How does that America Chavez figure look in person?

    I didn't really look as I don't collect the MCU figures. I know I went back to that Target again today and the shelf was still full of her figure though. And they also had the Black Costume Spider-Man on the pegs. (2 anyway. I bought one, and helped a fellow TFW member here get the other one.)

    Okay, so she's the odd figure out at the moment, which is good to know. Last time around I was looking for Wanda and Peggy and those were the ones everybody wanted.

    Shakopee Target has a Cobra Island BBQ. Package is pretty crushed. A lot of things were on clearance.

    EDIT: Eden Prairie Target has a Rhinox and a couple Tigatron. When I was looking at Funko Pops, I saw the other Tigatron stashed on an end cap behind the books.

    Anything interesting? Been seeing Marvel, WWE, but no PR/TF just yet.

    As a parent, spotted a single random new Paw Patrol vehicle that even my son didn't know existed.

    So the 2022 stuff is trickling out. Likely will have to go grab the dragon tomorrow so the Easter bunny is covered.

    Cedar Target in AV has a Pipes, and looks to have reshuffled the aisles to ready for reset.

    They've got Marvel Hammerhead but that's about it for anything of interest.

    Mostly Marvel and WWE. Appeared to be the stuff that’s been pegwarming for awhile that they have a lot of. Hopefully it helps move the stock so we can see some of the new product.

    Gentleman in AV was kind enough to find this in back.

    It is... bigger than I was expecting. Spinmaster are some smarty smarts making sure the new pup always comes with the most expensive vehicle.

    Bloomington and Edina Targets are both Slammerless. Southtown Game Stop has a Transformers x Jurassic Park pack for $105 if you missed it online.

    Went to my local Gamestop for the first time in a while and found a couple Marvel Legends I was thinking of ordering online here. Saved me a bit of shipping there.

    They also had one of those Transformers x Jurassic Park sets, but I'm not super interested in it. The vehicle bot looks TINY in the box. O_O

    Still looking for a Pipes and Blaster.

    I recently started working at the Mall of America and if anyone is looking the Gamestop has a few of the Jurassic Park sets in stock, if anyone is looking.

    Shoot if that one is still in AV I can grab it for you next time I'm out.

    He's also still on Pulse, and I think on Amazon.

    I am in Rochester today and the North Target is swimming in Kingdom deluxes. Lots of Tracks, Shadow Panther and Waspinators. Also, the World's Collide set is on sale for $60.

    Also stopped at a local comic store called Nerdin' Out. They have tons of vintage toys for TF, GI Joe, Star Wars and others. They had a Cobra Mamba! Highly recommended.

    That the one just off 52 in IGH? I've seen that when going by a couple times but never gotten a chance to stop in.

    Huh, there is more than one NerdinOut store. I was at the one in Rochester. Now I want to stop in at the IGH one on my way back tomorrow!

    Yeah it is across from the Walmart at that exit just south of the 52/55 join/split in IGH. It's right on the way in/out of the Cities if you are coming from or going to Rochester. Report if you stop and they have anything cool!

    Might have to try to stop on my way down to Rochester next time and maybe at the one in Rochester if I have time too.
