So I have acees to three Targets on my drive home ( two walmarts, and a TRU), the Target Eels sold out within a week while poor old Grandslam and the AVAC's are warming the pegs. Now is this just army building thing, because SE has sold pretty well but the Eels are all gone.

Hmm...maybe I got there when they first put them out, but there was an even number of all four packs the only time I've seen them. The AVAC pack as a whole is the best one, I think. Though that Eel pack marks the first time I've seen a 25th style Eel in a store; never saw the original one.

That's odd.

The three Targets near me are usually scalped harder than the two TRUs, but I've seen the eel exclusives on the pegs at all three every time I've been there this month.

Come to think of it, those are also the stores where I picked up four of mg five 25th single card eels.

Maybe they've got an eel farm in the basement.

Eels and AVACs are both doing well here. Niether are to be found.

Grand Slam is the loser of the wave. There must be a dozen on the shelf at my Target.

Snake-Eyes is the undisputed winner of the wave. I've only seen one when there were lots of all the others. Now he's nowhere to be seen.

They seem to be selling pretty well around here. I've wanted to get at least 1 more AVAC pack myself actually. I'd be more into wanting to army build those than EELs. The amount of stuff coming out though is keeping me from wanting to get everything I would want to get. Too many things I want and I can't army build stuff too, even though my idea of army building is just getting 2 or 3 of a specific figure.

I have plenty of 25th style Eels and really don't need any more. Maybe one as a squad leader or something.

I DO want that Grand Slam in a bad way. The new boots are enough incentive for me to consider armybuilding him and the glider makes it even more enticing.

Maybe I'll get lucky and see these this weekend when we're out and about.

Snake-Eyes is the only scarce one hereabouts. Eels were a bit tough at first, but they're plentiful now. I've no desire to army build any of these really, since the redecoed Eel and AVAC don't do much for me. Plus I have enough CLAWs and I don't like the jetski as much as some do. Maybe when they hit clearance, but for now one of each is just fine.

Around me the Eel seems to be the rarest. You can find him, but you may have to go to more than one Target.
Still its alot better than the 1st round of Target exclusives. There you didn't have a chance.
I'm waiting on a lot of V1 Eels I snagged on evil bay. I tried HTS, but the one they sent me had a crap arm, and they took so long to send it back they ran outta stock.
Until the SNAKE wave comes, the EEL is gonna rule. Especially as he's on average $3 bucks cheaper than V1s online (not including shipping) and he comes with a semi cool sled.
