I'm liking the reduced plastic packaging. Imo Mega could shave decent margins by cutting packaging costs. They sometimes go way overboard, like with the totally unnecessary internal packaging on the Inventions sets, or the box within box large sets. And as much as I like numbered bags, they add a lot of unnecessary packaging and spare pieces.
I'm so disappointed in the Let's Go set. I know based on the description, this is precisely what should've been expected - and given Pokemon is part of the "Wonder Builders" for younger kids, it's fantastic for them! I just kind of hoped for a proper Pokemon Center I guess.
This might not necessarily be a new plastic reduced packaging style but a nod to the vintage MOTU figures more figure fitting packaging style.
Wait wait wait, did he specifically mention Dollar Tree? Cause I'd love to see Dollar Tree actually carry MCx. Better than driving 30-45 min for Dollar General. If you're okay with that answer, good luck finding them. I'm glad I found mine. No one should be satisfied with that unless they're available at multiple cheap retail chains.
The Ross here had plenty of five dollar ATVs. And that was all. Ross was a bust, Burlington Coat Factory was a bust, Big Lots was a bust. Ollie's had the SDCC TRU Comic Leonard/Shedder set that I'm pretty sure was also there last year. This is how I know the region has stopped carrying product, they haven't pawned it off on the discount close out stores.
Make sure to check the end caps where they hang things. I missed them at one Ross, found two brute packs at another. Then went back to the first one and found it behind other things hiding. Seems like both Ross's only had two packs each. One had 2 brutes. The other had 1 brute, 1 spartan pack. If that's how they stock these for the rest of the run, these might be rare.
If you were holding out, now might be the time Drogon Set $44.99 https://www.walmart.com/ip/Mega-Construx-Game-of-Thrones-Daenerys-and-Drogon/620077103
No, Kevin stated dollar and discount stores, I just used dollar tree as an example since it is a well known dollar/discount store. Personally don't care for the set and don't plan to get it just passing on info so people don't waste time and gas running around to Target/Walmart searching for it. Speaking of Kevin, you guys remember that Last of Us leak, well he kind of debunked that. First bit of proof is that fact that he stated there is no other MOTU 5 pack planned. Second would be he's seen the leak and no such sets exist. That could just mean he's keeping things hush hush until things become officially but I'm rather skeptical of that. If your waiting for things to be finalized so as not to screw up a potential deal, you don't say anything period. So yeah no Last of Us sets are coming.
It's quite possible that The Last of Us set is actually from McFarlane. On another note, I pulled the drone outbreak truck from on of my storage bins from the move, and was surprised to find this guy still in the driver seat. I thought I'd tossed in the storage bin with the rest of my Halo figs.
Pretty much. Already discounting, too, as is amazon evidently. Never a good sign as usual... Mattel’s Time Is Running Out Amid Federal Securities Probe, And Not Even Barbie Can Save It
found this in Target today, guess the person that said they'd never show up in stores was wrong. I'll put up pics when the custom build is done, I picked up 2x with the idea to have a four legged dragon and maybe put all 4x wings on it to
