Just a heads up, TRU is having a buy-2-get-1-free sale on Narnia and Indy figs this week. Might be a good opportunity to stock up on ze Germans.

Ben 10 is on sale as well.

Wish Alien Force figures were out...

If only any of my TRU's had any Indy figures I wanted. Still, I have to go pick up the Joe 3-pack I stashed, so I'll still check tomorrow. Maybe finally bite on the truck.

Does this mean they'll restock, or is that it for this wave? I only ask 'cause they're pretty picked over and it seems like a bad idea to put stuff on sale if there is plenty of room for more/never been restocked.
I wonder does that include the deluxe figure sets, as I'd love more bikes.
Haven't seen any other vehicles, or the troop builder Germans.
Perhaps it's to tie in with the movie release.

Indiana Jones product:

http://www.toysrus.com/search/index.jsp?sr=1&f=Taxonomy%2FTRUS%2F2254197&origkw=indiana+jones&kw=indiana+jones&kwCatId=&view=all

They have (at the time of posting):

21 German Soldier single packs
57 German Motorcycle deluxe packs

No Russians, Tribal Warriors, German Cargo Trucks, or German 2-packs. But they do have Indy with the Horse, and German Troop cars.

FYI:
It also looks like their system is only allowing up to 3 free items per order. (atleast on the Indiana Jones stuff)

Okay.. now I jsut have to find a use for another Mutt Williams fig. (I got the jackets one to use the removable jacket part for a custom. I've been eyeing some of those Narnia figs for a while.

Are the deluxe sets a part of the sale also?

I was a manager for them back in the late 90's and still have to deal with the stores with my current job. I can say that most of the people who work in the stores are over-worked and underpaid which tends to foster an overall annoyance towards their jobs and customers. The corporate structure, lack of organization and district managers are truly horrendous. Most of the stereotypes regarding corporate obtuseness exist a hundred fold at Toys R Us corporate.

oops, didn't see this thread, I saw some figures at my TRU, but they were pretty picked over, I did see a Russian soldier that I never saw before and the Cemetery guy that people were looking for, but that was just about it. The WWE figures are also on sale, but not the Build and Brawl guys, which kind of sucks
