How long have the Hydra Stomper figures been on the shelves at Target? It seems like they should be going on clearance soon.
This is the 1st time I didn't get a single toy during BF/CM in I don't know how long. Kind of depressing. Was really hoping at least Blob would get marked down. Guess I have to wait until the next (birthday?) sale.
If you look around, he's not in stock many places. Unless everyone gets more of him in, I don't think you will see him on sale.
@darkmoon766 I should've mentioned I meant from Pulse, the one place that still has stock.
I'm shocked that your Target still has a Hydra Stomper. I haven't seen one of those on the shelf anywhere in a very, very long time. I'm pretty sure my Target never had it.
I saw that BBTS just recently put Blob back up for pre-order (for $64.99). I don't know if that means a re-release or just a restock. Regardless I hope that you find him at a palatable price for you. It's a great figure! I bought him at full price and don't regret it.
@stephenwdavis Sorry, my bad. I meant the figures for the Hydra Stomper BAF wave. Kingpin, Talos, Agatha Harkness, etc. Target seems to put figures on clearance after a month on shelves.

I would anticipate those figures go on clearance immediately after Christmas. One of my Targets had pegs full of Kingpin, Fury, Agatha. I've already gotten what I need at sale prices, so I won't be paying close attention to this wave's price drop. But in past years, holiday stock that makes it past Christmas usually goes on sale as soon as Jan 1.
@tenzilkem not clearance on all of them, but that wave is marked down on Amazon. Fury is the most at 19.99, but a couple are down to $11-something and the rest are $17.49.
@darkmoon766 Great timing. Hilarious!
I've also been waiting for him to go on sale somewhere. It has been on sale only as a damaged box on ent earth for less than an hour, and gamestop had their buy 2 get one free, but you had to find 3 things that were that price, so not really a sale. Once I saw most places were sold out, I caved and bought one on pulse since I have free shipping there. (It felt REALLY bad buying at full price, since he is a C lister and WAY overpriced.)
It's possible it might go on sale at some point, but I think Hasbro produced the perfect amount of these so there wasn't much overstock to warrant a sale.
Cyborg Spider-Man is down to $31.99 on Amazon right now... it's not the $17.99 they dropped it to a couple of weeks ago, but still more than 40% of "retail" price.
Edit: It's up to $34.99 in the time it took me to look at the item, and type this... sigh.

Honestly it should have been obvious to me that is what you meant, but it didn't click for some reason. I didn't really think about it - I got my Hydra Stomper wave so long ago from BBTS (September 1st) that I forgot that was even the BAF for that wave. LOL! I'm sure that everyone else knew what you meant and I was just too slow.
I do hope this wave goes on clearance. I'd love to pick up a couple of Kingpin and Widow bodies to use for customs. Maybe even Fury and Talos - although I hate what they did with that neck on Talos (in terms of being able to swap with other different figures in the line). I ended up using the armored Gamora figure as the body for my Veranke head from that Skrull 2-pack.

Ooo! That's a good idea. * yoink *
Another Target BOGO sale next week starting Sunday. Marvel MIGHT not be included, but in all likelihood it will be.
Plus you can see in the lower-right corner of the ad below they're selling gift cards at 10% off. That doesn't stack with the Red Card discount, and you can buy up to $500 in gift card credit to get 10% off of everything you pay for with it. I usually max this out every year since I buy most of my Legends from Target.
