9.99 for a JLU toy? I thought they go for 5.99 but that Batmobile for 0.99 oh man I'm getting right after school tomorrow. Thanks! The JLU Huntress was part of the latest waves of three packs. It also came w/ the Atom and Batman (they typically sell for Approx. 9.99 in most areas. The single JLU figs run around 4-5.99 each). The Batmobile is the standard 1:64th scale Hotwheels single. It is a re-release of their previous version, only with gold accents instead of chrome... such as the wheels (such Hotwheels singles are also commonly priced at .99 cents here). Where are you located?

I'm not sure if anyone has posted this, but I saw, and did not pick up a "new" four pack at TRU (at the Forum in Selma, TX) last night. It contained a Batman in the Blue Batbot suit, it didn't look like he came with a helmet, a Batman in all black with a yellow belt, reminded me of the 89' Movie Bats in The Batman style, and of course the Riddler and a regular Clayface. I didn't notice the price, I assume it was the same as the other four packs, they had a couple of them, the store looked sort of bare, and pegs were being kept pretty organized, not the usual mess, like they were getting ready to stock up for a sale this weekend or something.
As a side note The Target a few stores over had two of the new JLU 3-packs, both had Sups, Bats, and wonder Woman. I left them, since I have a ton of extras of all those figures. I will say this the packaging is awesome, especially the back. Mattel's designer did a great job on those. I would start keeping an eye out at Target the closer it gets to Christmas more styles might start trickling in.
It may sound stupid, but I passed on both of those for a Martian Manhunter 3-pack that I have been looking for.

Today I picked up the JLU Lightray/Winged Amazo/Nemesis 3 pack. Yesterday I picked up the Batman/Superman/Wonder Woman 3pack in the new packaging and another Huntress/Atom/Batman set in the new packaging instead of the gold packaging. All at Target! I also received my JLU KMart Exclusive Superman/Supergirl/Steel set. I see they are now reporting new sightings of the 10" Reverse Flash, too. I'll have links to pics a little later today for the Nemesis/Lightray/Winged Amazo set. IT is really cool! **Here is the link to the pics.. foxyford83.proboards20.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=DC&thread=1165685272&page=1

Tonight at Target I saw some of the bigger ShadowTek Batman but nothing I was interested in. But the wonderful unexpected find came in the form of the new JLU singles (Huntress, Bats, Supes, SHade and Dr. Light). A little bumed no new threepacks (Lightray) but I cant complain.

Found two mystery Batmobiles today at Wal-Mart, and yesterday was a lucky day for me and a sad one for someone else, I went digging around at our local flea market and at the bottom of a box of action figures guess what I found... a loose Mr. Snoots from the new Arkham set! He was slightly scratched and there was no sign of the Ventriloquist, best part of all the guy only asked .25 for him. Now I have both Scarface and Mr. Snoots and only had to purchase one set of figures. ;D ;D ;D

I was pretty excited, as the nearest Target never even got this in.

Spotted the new deluxe? ShadowTek The Batman figs (or some such as green Robin and slime croc). Also the Shadow Tek big blue batbot loking "twin blasters?" Batman and batmobile all at Walmart. Also the new "Man of Steel" Superman Returns stuff. Nothing spectacular.

Lone TRU finally got their new Shadowtek. All that was left were a few Bats. They also restocked with a plenty o'13" Deluxe Batman. Maybe they'll have a post-Christmas sale. ;D
One of the local Targets that NEVER gets much of anything appears to be resetting their shelves. New finds at that store were both variant Clayfaces, new card Joker and helmetless Freeze.
New Justice Leagues were GREAT to find after BBTS cancelled all preorders on the line because of some mixup with Mattel/dsitributor. Whatever. I was glad to finally get the two new 3 packs with Demon and Huntress. No new singles yet of Huntress. They did have the new 10" Justice League (in purple boxes). Reverse Flash, Hawkgirl and Batman were the only ones I saw. Back of the box looks promising with new GL, Martian Manhunter (and that couldn't be Hourman, could it?) Maybe I just didn't get a good look.

Spotted some Ghost Rider Movie stuff (rip cord cycles), the first wave of the little Marvel Hero squad sets (couldnt resist the Ghost Rider/Punisher and Daredevil/Elektra) I also snagged a Metal Head for a fellow member.

Found Shadowtek Robin and Mothman at Cherry Hill WalMart and passed on the Croc repaint.
Wal mart in PA had decimated shelves but lo and behold only the second Azrael I've ever seen and one DCSH Robin...no leftover Scarecrows or Superman wave figs. Weird.

Last night at my Walmart, I noticed they had all of their Corgi Batmobiles on clearance for $5.00 each. So if anyone is missing anything, be sure to hit Walmart.
Also my local Walgreen's has started to carry Corgi's as well, so there's another stop for those looking to complete their Corgi collection.

I picked up the new JLU single pack Huntress, Shade, and Dr. Light at Target this morning!. I saw those new Batman vehicles, but I really don't like the figures molded onto or into them. I would much rather be able to put action figures on them myself, but they certainly look cool!

WOW. Did I find some cool new stuff tonight. I posted my The Batman findings in the appropriate thread, so check those out, but Ill tell of my other findings here.
Went to all the local stores, Target, TRUs, Kmart, all had new items. Fully stocked.
I found the Mattel Batman & Batgirl 2 pack at Target. Ugh, VERY disappointed. Im not too picky when it comes to paint apps., but my lord, these were awful. Looked like a sloppy brush custom by some kid. You could actually see brush strokes. Colors were bleeding into each other and dont even ask about the face and emblems. I skipped this entirely. Ill keep my money.
Shadowtek is popping up at all the stores now. (see TB thread)
I saw the new Superman Returns "Man of Steel" line. I actually dug these. The Metallo i thought was wicked. Nice expansion from a movie line, imo. I also saw a Superman from the DC Superheroes line that had all the yellow replaced with black. Kinda like a Kingdom Come look.
New TMNT movie toys. I thought these looked dead on to the CGI from the trailers. Very nice line.
Spider Man Origins stuff is all over. I wish I was a Spidey collector but thats what my brothers for. These rock.
Seeing this stuff and some of the new Star Wars figs really made me smile tonight down the toy aisles.

My Batgirl has a cleft chin, and a thick yellow line going vertically from the top of her batsymbol on her chest.

I've seen approximately 20+ of the Batgirl 2pks and only one has had what I would call a perfect paint job, there are 2 versions out there though, one has the solid gray paint job and there's a running change where she has a wash, that looks like brush strokes, most of the problems I've seen have been on the chest emblems, head and stray paint on her body, the QC is pretty bad on these figs.

we went shopping out of town today for a change of scenery, glad we did. I was able to fin 2 Corgis I needed, the Catmobile and the 30's Red Batmobile.
Also, while passing a Hallmark in one of the malls, I found one of the coolest items Ive found in a long time. Its a Batman card that when opened, plays the Danny Elfman Batman theme. I, of course, grabed one of those suckers. Batman cards dont come around that often and you sure as heck dont get anything 89 related anymore. It was 5 bucks.
