Well, I just got back from TRU'S and Kmart and ( Kmart, NO ZOIDS at all just AFs) nothing new to be reported. TRU'S got lots of GT and CS and MT(missile tor.) and Gig Gol's(still at 49.99) and Ultra Saures(still at 79.99) and Gravity Brothers. I gotta check down in Midtown Manhatten this weekend and see what's at the Big TRU'S and I just might stop at Image Anime(knowly full well that I got my CC on me) to see what new there. BlkBitCloud1

I know the feeling, our local TRU hasnt had anything new since the UltraSaurus came out. But then, I dont expect them to have naything new till late March.
Funny thing about Kmart. The one near us has been clearancing Zoids out for many months. Doesnt seem to be having much luck at actually selling any of them. Might be because they have DiBison, Berserk Fury, and Pteramander clearance priced at $24.00? I talked to the manager a couple times, tells me there is nothing he can do as they are governed by what corparate tells them to do, even though he knows that they are priced at more then twice what KBToys and others have been selling them for. I guess since they were originally marked $34.99, they think it is a hell of a discount lmao

Went to KBToys and KMart here Saturday, and WalMart Monday.
KBToys didn't have much, but since they had a Holo Raynos last time, it looks like they'll will get in new stuff every now and then.
KMart had the same old Zoids, Elephanders, Dark Spiners, Pteramanders, and Gojulas Gigas on clearence, along with some action figures and Missile Tortoises.
WalMart had some Zoids scattered thoughout their clearance isles. A Gordosaur, Pteramander, Kong Wolf, 3 Red Horns, and some actions figures. I rescued the Pteramander. Also, all the Zoid boxes looked beaten up, especially the Konig Wolf.....

I went to Wal Mart and TRU today and this is my area report.
WalMart. They had about 16 missle Tort's, 5 or so Grav Pteras, 3 Elephander and a Liger Zero. They also had a Energy Liger, but I left it for the next lucky kid.
TRU. They had almost every zoid hasbro released thus far except the first 8 blox the Blade Liger, Energy Liger, zabat,dibison,lightning siax (red), shadow fox and grav wolf. They had a few Fire Phoniex, tons of ultra's a few breakers ,dark/red horn, iron kong , Dark Spiner, Both Zaber fang's and most of the figures except for the Fox (of course) . They had more models that i'm not in the mood to list but they had alot of stuff.
On another note I'm glad to see that they are accepting reservations on Pokémon Coloseum. ( Lets not get into a Pokémon discussion here..it is after all a zoids board.)

Me want that Lightning Saix...man how big is your TRU?! The only place with Zoids here is Bi-Mart, who had Death Stingers for $7.99, but they all gone, now they only have the Chimera Dragon blox and Gravity Saurer/Saix (picked up one of each, no blox though) Wal*Mart hasn't had anything in weeks...I've given up on it, since the whole Zoids section has been replaced by (dare I say it?) Power Rangers and Yu-Gi-Oh...the last Zoid I saw there was Missile Tortoise

Well, I went to Target recently and THEY GOT NO ZOIDS WHATSOEVER!
Then a new Walmart opened nearby. And you know what? THEY GOT NO ZOIDS EITHER!
And at KB Toys, the only zoids they had were THE ONES THAT WENT ON CLEARANCE TWO MONTHS AGO!
OH THE HORROR! OH THE MISERY! OH THE LACK OF NEW ZOIDS!

(Location: Madison, WI; West side
Havn't been to the local Wal-mart or TRU lately, but the local Target isn't carrying any. The KB Toys near me is going out of business (not suprising with a TRU so close by), so I was able to pick up about $70-$80 worth of Zoids for about $22 (2 Command Wolf Irvines, GunBluster, Guysac, Iguan, & a Molga). If they are still open next Mon, I might pick up a few more for kitbash purposes.

If the wallet's empty, so is the Bank account - I only carry cash for when the account is empty, so if I'm going for the cash then...well you know by now.

I wouldn't do that, it's a tad too childish for my tastes.
