Do a google search on the upi numbers for each figure, at least in previous waves each figure had a separate number (not like SW figures which go by assortment). We have numerous ninjas as a result of this information.

Thanks. I found a site that listed them. They are kind of hard to see.

Today I got a Mortal Kombat Reptile 4" figure from Ross for $6. TRU has them for $10. I'd like to find some more, especially Sub-Zero, Scorpion, and Raiden.

I see Reptile all the time and have seen Raiden a couple of times. Never anyone else, though.

A saw a 4-pack at TRU, but the figures were so shitty I mistook them for Dollar Store cake toppers.

Truth is, if Hasbro got the license again (because, for all our bitching about them, they beat the hell out of everyone else when you consider all factors), I'd be sorely tempted by good Mortal Kombat figures, particularly if they offered a wide selection from the various games (including the Player 2 color variants somehow).

I doubt I'd get a full set, but it'd be tough to pass on a kickass MK2 Raiden or Kung Lao, or UMK3 Kabal, Smoke, Sektor, or Cyrax.

The multi-pack figures look bad, but the individual figures are better.

I haven't seen the multipack myself, but the figures at Ross didn't look like they were worth $6 by any stretch of the imagination.

I opened Reptile, and it wasn't as good as I had hoped. The package says 17 points of articulation. What it doesn't say is that the range of motion is somewhat limited. They aren't loose or too tight, they just don't move as far as I expected. He has a masked and unmasked head, so I tried swapping them out. I couldn't get the unmasked head on (and my 6 year old was laughing at me).

MotUClassics Fisto, Sorceress, ShadowWeaver, and Photog all arrived in the mail this week.
Also Voltron Red Lion. I wasn't a huge Voltron fan as a kid, but Mattel's new figures make a 2 ft tall Voltron when finished that looks pretty fuckin' cool.

Marvel Legends are back!!!!!
I got Hope, Klaw, Constrictor, and both Ghost Riders today.
My BAF Terrax is missing a leg, but otherwise he's complete too.

Marvel Legends Wave 2!!!!

I got BuckyCap, Fantomex(of X-Force), Piledriver(of the Wrecking Crew), Madame Hydra( aka Viper aka the ex-Mrs. Logan), and FF Spidey.
I skipped Drax the Destroyer and Daken, which i will have to get later to compete the BAF Arnim Zola.

Almost got General Cracken (AKA "Ran as a Star Wars figure") today. He was the only deleted scene figure at WM....

And the fucker wasn't in the system. And the bitchy cashier refused to sell him.

She supposedly called a manager, but I told her after a few minutes to forget it. I rather doubt he'll be the HTF figure from the wave.

I realized while typing this that I still need Ponda. Never found one with decent paint. Not too concerned, as I got the previous army of Pondas.

I got Legends Steve Rogers and Stealth Extremis IM, and finished Terrax.

Ummmm.....Someone must have told them all about my little maneuver at the battle of Taanab?

I haven't seen any of the deleted scenes figures yet, but pretty much everybody who has found them has reported having issues buying them, at least at Walmart. I have no idea why they aren't in the system.

Ponda was the only figure I got from his wave (the other two being Bastila Shan and the Echo Base trooper), and I didn't even see him in stores myself. That group was really hard to find - they were released at the same time as the glut of Revenge of the Jedi repacks - but for some reason nobody's bitching about that fact.
