That's a nice find!! I really wish had Ollie's around me. The closest one is 2 hours away. I rarely even drive the half hour to the closest Ross.

Stopped by Target this morning for clearance Christmas supplies and obviously stopped by the toy aisles which were sadly but not surprisingly mostly untouched since checking them the last few weeks. Kids just don’t want toys for Christmas anymore.

Anyone think Blob will ever be cheaper than the $67 Amazon is charging?

Empty Marvel Legends pegs for the entirety of the 2024 Christmas season at my local Target.  The same way it's been for nearly the entire year.  Not stocking toys.......at Christmas time.  I'll never understand.

He's quite a good figure.  I forget what he originally retailed for.  I do know he disappeared for a while and people were terrified that they missed out on him.  It's not a great price, $40 would be better......but I might say just do it.

@yojoebro82 I haven't seen one Secret Wars figure at Target and I stop in one particular store way too much. I have to drive right by on my way home from work, so I take a look nearly every day.  Hard to imagine not seeing at least one Iron Man even if I missed the others. Not sure any ML was added all December outside of some Spiderverse.

Original MSRP was $60, and people waited for it to fall.  They failed.  That experience should reveal my answer which is no, it probably won't be cheaper so you should get it now before Amazon's supply runs out.

Note that it is only one third-party seller who's even supplying them via Amazon at $67, and the next cheapest retailer besides them has him priced at $86.  So as soon as that seller runs out the price will jump to at least $86.  None of them are trying to match that $67 seller because they probably know they can just wait his supply out.

I had caved and bought an Amazon Blob at $67 but was unhappy about it. Getting the Rogue/Destiny 2-pack and finishing up the Brotherhood made me finally pull the trigger awhile back. I still look at him sideways and grumble when I see him on my shelf.

Same experience for me too. I get 99% of my figures online so it's not like I'm looking for anything in particular, but it's just sad to see.

@red_ogre  ML may as well be an online exclusive toy line. This practice of setting aside space for a product that remains continuously unstocked would never have lasted this long if one of the two huge corporations involved were being hosed in any way.  Hasbro and Target both benefit from this in ways that my business degreeless self doesn't understand.
