Scalpers really got the good stuff around here. I went into WalMart yesterday and they had the new displays on the endcap for IM2, I got excited seeing the ultimate armor iron man, but that was absolutly it from that "wave", there was at least 10 ultimate armor ironment, but not a single drone. So unless there were more of that fig in the case, somebody just grabed at least 20 drones.

Very frustrating.

Yeah between army builders and scalpers, it's been hard to get some of the Iron Man items. But that's about the same in all the lines that are not getting good distribution.

I dont have the problem with army builders as its something they want for themselves. I know its scalpers in my area, I have actually seen at least 3 of them and its obvious they are just there looking for the items to scalp. I have seen one person take a bunch of figures to another isle and use her camera phone to take pics and then get a text back and just happen to keep the rare ones. Since its just toys and not something like medicine or something more, I wouldnt go tell them off or something, but none the less its very annoying.

I actually scored one of the Air Drones but haven't seen the other single drone.

Not sure if anyone is interested, but Impulse Creations has the next few waves available (although it says they won't ship until the 7th). They have both drones as welll as both Whiplash's (comic and movie). I've been ordering from them for a long time, so I can vouch for 'em.

Got a link ?



I finally saw a IM2 Whiplash today at my local Wal-Mart, so i snagged him, the only other new figure there was the blue Fusion armor IM, i was hoping to fins a comic Iron Monger.

I'm still looking for 1 each of the single carded Drones

Has the single pack Nick Fury and Black Widow come out yet? I haven't seen them at my local Wal-Mart but I haven't seen any of the other new IM2 or MU figures.

_________________

Nope.

_________________

I don't think either one is even scheduled to be released in single packs.

Fury came in a TRU 4-pack with Iron Man and two Army Drones, and Black Widow is scheduled to be released in a Target 3-pack along with Iron Man and War Machine with removable helmets.

Are we sure they're getting removable helmets? All I've been hearing and seeing is 'helmetless'.

I thought that Hasbro confirmed, in a Q&A session, that the figures would come with helmets.

Wal-Mart has dropped the prices to $5. Yesterday they were regular price, today, 2 stores had the $5 price and I got 2 more Weapons Drones, 1 more Air Assasult Drone, and a Hypervelocity IM for $16 after the $5 off coupon.

After a little looking, I found this, for what it's worth:



Still trying to find the Q&A though...

It's cool, don't kill yourself Gaigaan. That's good enough for me. I didn't think Hasbro would be cheap enough to make them without helmets; but Hasbro always has ways to surprise us.
