The Den Toy Hunt Assistance Thread
Looking for toys sucks, especially when they're those damned exclusives we all hate. Sometimes we ask for help in the toy forum, or the shout, or the Fresh Kills topics, etc., so I thought it would be a good idea to make a pinned topic so we can assist each other with those hard to find items and avoid eBay and the #@%&ing scalpers.
Want help finding something? Post what you'd like here.
Come across some hard to find items in your area and willing to help someone out? Let 'em know here.
Any payment details, shipping costs, addresses, etc. can be worked out via PM's so as not to clutter the place up and keep certain info from the public forum if you so choose.
OK, have at it!

Re: The Den Toy Hunt Assistance Thread
Heya guys!
The search engine at TRU.com keeps not registering Rodimus's page, but this link I saved to favorites (at least for the moment) does show his page:
http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=4068794
I anyone happens to be online when the page gets updated with stock and orders any if possible I'd like one as well.
And if anyone outsides the US like Gek, DS or anyone wants to order them send them to me I'll be glad to ship them to you if you think me sending them loose/comp (maybe even carded) would be cheaper than paying international shipping direct from the website.
Hope this helps us out, otherwise it's going to be a brutal hunt and search for Arcee all over again!!
HM

Re: The Den Toy Hunt Assistance Thread
Well, I'm always on the lookout for Ultraman ships. These are the two main ones I'm on the lookout for though. I imagine that those of you living outside the US are going to be more likely to be able to find these. If you should come across either in your travels, send a PM my way.

Gundam and Kamen Rider, two flavors that taste great together.

Re: The Den Toy Hunt Assistance Thread
The Wal-Mart near me got in 2 sets of the exclusive DCU Green Lantern 5 packs with "old" Hal, John, Guy, Tomar Re and GL Sinestro. If anybody wants one, let me know soon before the scalpers get there. retail is $59.97 + 7% sales tax + whatever shipping will be. It's a good sized box so you'd probably be looking at just under $75 total.

Re: The Den Toy Hunt Assistance Thread
I know my writer wanted one, but I'm trying to find out if he had it covered or not. Freakin' lazy ass designer... *grumble*
I"ll let you know soon.
Speaking, are there any particular DCUs YOU'RE looking for? (Or anyone really.) I'm heading to a convention this weekend and I'm searching for me a Stephaine Brown Batgirl.

I've given up on them. I don't know, maybe I'm becoming more "consumer" than "collector" in my old age. Mattel has done everything possible to make their DC lines scalper's delights. If it were a case of a few exclusive figures here and there that's one thing, but when it's impossible to find entire waves of general release figures, that's another. I'm not going to bend over and try to stick my head up my own ass just to give someone my money. Besides, the retail prices on their figures keep skyrocketing, Wal-Mart is now charging $15 for single carded figures. I did see Blue Devil and Blue Beetle from the newest wave.

Re: The Den Toy Hunt Assistance Thread
I'm trying to catch up on Marvel Universe 3.75" Spider-Man figures I lost a while back and the only one I need is a black costume Spider-Man. I know there are 1 or 2 in the dedicated Spider-Man line but it's doesn't have the same amount of articulation. I'd like the MU single pack but I'd also be willing to settle for the Secret Wars Comic 2 pack with Magneto. (Not the Dark Avengers set)

Re: The Den Toy Hunt Assistance Thread
not going to be needing them for a long time yet, but i will be looking for 2 Nerf Longshot rifles (not the LongSTRIKE)
2ndhand, out of box, doesn't bother me. so long as they're a) really cheap and b) working/firing that's all that matters. color doesn't matter either (it comes in blue or yellow) since they're being modded into a Twin Buster Rifle

Just so we're clear...this one right?

If so, I have one I've been regretting the purchase of since I discovered its effective range of a meter and a half. Pretty much no play-wear, just some of the darts are a little squished from being stored in the spring-loaded magazines. PM me with an offer.

Re: The Den Toy Hunt Assistance Thread
yes, that's the one. and a range of a metee and a half.. must have a really bad airleak on the breach (a common issue with them)
as for an offer. whatever you want me to pay to part with it really.
but currently, money is quite low. so it may not be soon
