I hit Target every night after work and the same guy is there debating over which clone figure to buy - it's like I'm stuck in a time warp or something... but seriously the Muggs need their own aisle period.

I hate seeing the $130 some dollar Millenium Falcon that i can't afford Seriously! Aww man I really want that thing XD! Agreed. The little kid in me wants that thing so bad. Just can't justify it though. Maybe one day when I have kids!

That is so weird...though I feel like I'm in a time warp whenever I walk into a Target and just see the same figures I saw the previous day, and then debate, "If I buy all the Hulk figures, they have to put something new out, right?" A debate, that apparently, many of us have had.

those voice changer clone helmets make noises all by themselves?? Us here haven't seen any of those in retail yet... grouses? I hate retail staff who pretend not to know anything when stocks arrive, giving the usual "don't know"..."no idea" and when a scalper (who spends big time) comes along, they bring out the stock for him to choose and have first buy. worse would be retail staff who work for scalpers, they get first contact with fresh stock, hiding and keeping all the wanted stuff, buying them even, to be sold off with a little profit or same price to scalpers. In simple, cahoots with the scalpers.

Anyone else feel weird talking into the toy section. I think i just hit that point in my life where it's a tiny bit creepy especially when parents are looking at you. Maybe i just should stay out of the barbie section jk!

Or this... I hate never finding the Muggs I'm looking for, end up buying them online for more then shortly after I see them in the store (same day or next) - ugh it's like both Luke Skywalker and Obi Wan punk'd me!

Those darn auto-talking clone trooper heads haunt me in my dreams. It's like they sum up my utter failure at Mugg hunting. I'm all disappointed from not getting a new Mugg and there they are, screaming at me like some kinda demon.

I've realized another woe. You scan the box, the reader says that there are more in the back, you ask an associate to check and pull your hair out as they fumble with their scanner to double check what and where. You then wait in agony for what feels like eternity. Hoping amongst hope that they do indeed have something in the back. Pray that what they have in the back is something you want. Making yourself giddy at the fact that it MAY just be that one Mugg you've been looking for for months. Dreading all the money you're about to spend at the possibility of what they bring out being the next full wave you desire. That my friends, is the ultimate woe. OK you scanner people, be happy you can use the scanners!!! As I said before in a different thread, the TRU scanner calls teh employees, and the Target scanner does not show me what is in stock, it shows the price only. Unless there is a trick I missed somewhere.

^^^ your target must have the older scanner, the newer ones shows whether or not they are in the stock room.

I was in Des Moines last weekend and all of the Targets had the scanners to check inventory. It was great. I think of all the time I could save combing the isles looking for an employee with a scanner.

Damaged Boxes are by far the worst problem I have. I STILL don't have Obi Wan & I seen him dozens of times, but it had to be right after a someone set it on the floor and stomped on it. I am only missing 6 of the current Muggs, but I just can't buy ripped, crushed, battered, etc. boxes. The boxes are as cool as the figures.
