I haven't seen much in the wild yet, to be honest. And I agree with you that a cool looking character goes a long way even without much screen time. I feel bad for the kids, I think a big component of characters like Phasma not being available is collectors and re-sellers buying them all up. That wasn't happening when we were kids!<br /><br />Fortunately someone was able to find Rey for my daughter's Xmas gift, so we got lucky in that department!Bubbashelbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05304403353153855498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1295330224497015785.post-11177082924572401312016-01-05T21:18:01.133-05:002016-01-05T21:18:01.133-05:00Exactly!

They were completely out. Not a one hanging from the pegs. It doesn't look like they've had a restock since Black Friday. <br /><br />So, I don't know if Hasbro isn't producing enough, or stores aren't ordering more product. Either way, you can't sell what people can't buy.

I think my magic was more about the music than the action figures. I was 14 in '77 and didn't get many of the toys, other than the "flashlight with a plastic tube on it" light saber. <br />Martin L Collinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14010014095798053294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1295330224497015785.post-29918316398652742282016-01-05T14:18:15.799-05:002016-01-05T14:18:15.799-05:00It's hard to go back home again and with this ...It's hard to go back home again and with this new Star Wars movie i was hoping to recapture the magic of my childhood but with these new action figures i really only seen a couple that i have any real interest in...maybe if i had seen the movie but i have moved on to Dawn of Justice now which has me excited.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05151310331721753861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1295330224497015785.post-63368993766345226052016-01-05T14:13:51.460-05:002016-01-05T14:13:51.460-05:00Oh, and I love Sarco Plank.

Oddly enough, while I live in an area with fewer stores than many folks have access to I think I've seen every 1/18th scale figure numerous times before Christmas except for the Resistance Rey wave. I've also seen the first two Wal-mart waves on a couple of occassions. The only Black Series figure up through the third series I haven't see in stores is Phasma. While places like Wal-Mart and K-Mart have been wiped clean, places like Walgreens Kohls, and other non-traditional toy retailers seem to have lots of figures in stock.Barbecue17https://www.blogger.com/profile/11169946891265569135noreply@blogger.com
