Marvel Heroscape Sightings

[GaryLASQ]

For all you Chicagoland Heroscapers, Marvel Heroscape is on the shelf at your local Gamer's Paradise (http://www.gamesparadiseinc.com/locations.html). Unfortunately, the price is marked up to $35. Too bad. GP usually does the MSRP. :(

Doesn't look like they received any Wave 7 yet...

I didn't see a Sightings thread for MarvelScape yet so I thought I'd start one. If you see some at a nearby store post the location in this thread.

[allskulls]

A friend of mine said he saw it in Northern Cali at a gaming store called Games of Berkeley. They have 1 there for $40.

[Cavalier]

Looks like WotC is doing a good job of distributing it to the smaller retailers.

[Faustus]

Seattle Area - I checked Target, Fred Meyer and TRU today. Nothing but the same old stuff.

Fred Meyer's having a great buy 2 get 1 free - but they never have anything that you want 3 or even two of - tons of agents/gladiators, Raknor's Vision, and Orm's Return. Suck!

This is a NON-Sighting. We don't need no stinking non-sightings... :twisted:

[MacG]

Funagain had theirs in Thursday or Friday. I didn't get back from vacation until yesterday, but they were ready to pick up then.

I guess this is a store sighting since it sounds like you plan to go there and pick it up. But is Funagain a retail store chain? I thought they primaily just do online ordering/shipping...

Guys, this is not a NON-sightings thread. This is not an online "it arrived at my house" thread.

[ninthdoc]

I believe Funagain has a retail store along w/their website. MacG has always supported their retail venue and posted about their store.

Gary - I have been playing with the game ever since Saturday when I walked into Funagain's air-conditioned game room, walked around the people playing Carcasonne, made my way to the register, and stopped to chat with Nick about Hasbro's weird "clump" of heroscape. I didn't trip over the huge shelf of opened "try them yourself" games, nor did I knock over the hundreds of games all lovingly arranged in the retail part of the store (admittedly smaller than the warehouse but larger than all but one retail game store within 300 miles of my house).

Seriously, Funagain is a big online dealer. But before you start throwing aspersions around, maybe you should visit the place or at least ask someone if it is a retail store as well. I respect your work for the community, but don't act like a doofus.

My apologies. I respect your loyalty to Funagain. I didn't realize they had a retail store(s). I have a similar fondness of Gamers Paradise which is only a small local retail chain that is smart enough to order and shelve the new expansions right away, rather than waiting to unload most of the old expansions first.

I was only being a jerk in order to try to reduce the flood of non-sightings and online-arrival sightings that always plague a "store sightings" thread.

And so you posted a non-sighting yourself? :P

Oops, I did too. :wink: I'll shut up now and go back to reading this thread with interest. :popcorn:

Just got back from a Wal-Mart run during lunch...


Marvel Heroscape has hit the shelves :D

I was astonished. That store is usually quite lame. Several more copies there for you CO 'scapers.

I checked one of the three here at lunchtime. Nothing. No clearance HS items, either. No Wave 7, either, obviously. I'll check the second one tonight.

It's hopeless. Folks just can't resist loading up a Sightings thread with Non-sightings. Thread name has been changed.

Have fun reading through 9 non-sightings for every 1 sighting. :roll:

Well, you've got to admit that when one is engaged in the search one tends to be "pumped" about it, as the kids say, and also in the spirit of the age it's hard to keep one's feeling's "bottled up." So we tend to tell everyone about not just our "victories", but our "defeats" as well. And when one can no longer think of words to put in "quotes", one realizes it's best to stop typing.

[IAmBatman]

Once there's more to report in the way of sightings, I think the non sightings will die down a bit. Right now the non sightings are the product of a product vaccuum.

[GaryLASQ]

And when one can no longer think of words to put in "quotes", one realizes it's best to stop typing.Heh. I do the "" thing more than I should, so using this as my signature for a while will help me cut back. Thanks ej for the "quote" quote :). I'll stop cluttering up this thread I've started with worthless posts. Happy hunting!

I just remembered that I am going to CO Springs next week. Not only can I check Wal-mart, but there is a mall we go to for food (going to a huge conference w/ my church) and rigth byt he food court there is a game store that has a good supply of Heroscape every year. I hear CO is the place for Marvelscape these days...

Picked it up today at Uncle's Games in Bellevue WA. It was a little more expensive than retail price at 37.99 but all heroscape is usually overpriced there and I didn't feel like waiting :)

With any luck you'll find some. The wally world up the street from me had 5 sets as of 4 days ago and all the stores in teh area are doing massive resets too.

[ej]

I've decided to check the four major store's websites on a daily basis for Marvel Heroscape. Wal-Mart, Kmart, Target and Toys R Us. Once one of them has it online I'll post that here.

There's a game store in Bradenton? When did it open? I used to live in Sarasota and never knew that.

I never much liked Bradenton and so tried to avoid going there, but if I'd known there'd been a game shop I would have visited at least a few times.

[netherspirit]

Oh a non-sightings thread! I love those!

I am currently sitting a computer lab on campus and there is no Marvelscape in sight. :(

OH! Stores only! I haven't looked, so I haven't seen any at the stores either.

[jcrog]

http://www.kbtoys.com/genProduct.html/PID/4762339/ctid/17/INstock/Y/D/

I found the game in King of Prussia but they are charging $42.99! What a rip-off. I figure I have waited this long I can wait a bit more ( like til I see it at Toys R Us or Walmart)

I was just checking in with It's Your Move game stores since they got wave 6 way before anyone around here in hope that they'd have wave 7. They don't, but they do have MarvelScape at the Southwest Plaza store.

[jcrog]

I called the Compleat Strategist (on Gulph Road) and the guy said they had it. I just hope he didn't think I was asking about Marvel Heroes but I think they charge more for that.

Wow...42.99 for the game. What a rip-off. I may buy from KB as they seem to be by far the best online source for it right now. I don't know if I want to wait for it to hit retail.

Anybody know any KB discount codes?

[jcrog]

$5 off an order of $40 or more at KBtoys.com
In your shopping cart, click on the "Apply Coupon or Certificate" button and enter code ETNLTR. Valid through: Unknown
$40 minimum excludes video game consoles, gift cards, shipping and taxes. Not valid on previous purchases. Cannot be combined with any other coupon.

Vegas Showdown is well worth the $10 to add to this and get it over 40...

although i am not totally sure this hasn't expired

[ej]

Did Vegas Showdown get discontinued? I picked it up last week at TRU for $10.

[jcb231]

Thank you. I'll try it out and see. Don't know if I want to add 5 bucks to my bill though for no reason. I'll scout around to see if there are any free shipping offers.

[jcrog]

yep hasbro seems to be getting rid of alot of the avalon hill titles. Nexus Ops is a pretty good game for $10 too.

[GaryLASQ]

Oh a non-sightings thread! I love those!
I changed the title from "Sightings" to "Sightings/Non-sightings" just because I know how much you love non-sightings threads. :twisted:

Edit: and then changed it back.

[vernz]

just to let u guys know hasbro has them on there site for sale now i ordered mine earlier and used the catweb code got 10% off yay

Yup, sorry.................I'll try to do better in the future and just keep it to fuzzy-maybe sightings and non-sightings. Please, please forgive me.............

[jdtenor]

Gamers paradise has one left for $55 :shock:

[Ursas]

Thanks to Hafbee's information I checked out Uncles Games in Bellevue, WA and they have the Marvel set. They also have wave seven in stock and displyed. FYI their prices are a higher than normal.

Thanks again Hafbee

[kookalives]

I picked mine up on Friday at the Littleton Wal-Mart.
It was the last one they had on the shelf.

Now I gotta find time to play a game with them. Lucky for me I'm on vacation right now and I am not going anywhere, so I think I'll find the time.

[Carnival Man]

I just picked up one at the San Leandro WM (off Davis St.) They had 4 copies...no wave 7 yet but pleanty of 6 (but no Zombies!!!)

[Drumline3469]

Got one at It's Your Move at a mall close to New Life Church in Colorado Springs. It's right by a Walmart and there is a Taco Bell and a Sonic outside of it as well. They had one more although it is 40 dollars...

[lonewolf]

Sorry, if I missed it, but do we have an SKU for Marvelscape?

[yanks114kd]

The wal-marts in Troy, Piqua, and Sidney Ohio all have marvelscape, go get them.

[Gwanum]

The Wal-Mart in National City had 6 sets today.

Newer Walmart in Peoria, IL: Checked last saturday for Marvel and Wave 7. Nothing. They did have a castle set on clearance for $20. I thought to myself "Self, I bet they're trying to make room for something new. I better buy this so they can get that new stuff out." So I did.

Checked back on Monday---nothing new.

Today (Wed.) they had 3 Marvel sets where the castle set was, with no price yet. Scanned at $24.96. And then there were two....

Target and the older Walmart had nothing new. Haven't checked Kmart 'cuz Wally's cheaper. And TRU had nothing new but did have ALL of the flagbearer's (2 of each).

Kmart in Pekin still has some Wave 4 (soulborg/elves, lawmen/samurai, couple of each) Only one greeks/vipers which I also picked up.

Man do I need a raise to pay for this onslaught of new HS/MS!

Marvel HS is arriving in Central Ohio...

I found three boxes in the Wal-mart off Tuttle Parkway in NW Columbus. It must be making its way through the distribution center in Grove City and I expect to see it in other local stores soon.

FYI: I bought all three and asked they order more. They placed an order for three more boxes and said it may take two weeks to arrive.

[lisamas]

As I walked through the Missouri City, TX walmart tonight I saw a bunch of hasbro boxes on a pallet ready to be restocked. One of the boxes contained 3 Marvel Heroscapes. I bought one, there are two left!!

[rwwin]

Three left at the Walmart on Parker Rd at Chambers in Aurora Colorado.

[SerAndrew]

anyone seen anything in the Dayton, Ohio area yet?

[jcrog]

anything spotted in the philly metro area??

Actually i think Abington games has this now!!! I may pick mine up today!

ej, are you right in the middle of IA? Because that would be State Center.
Inquiring minds want to know.

Where exactly is, "Right in the Middle"?

[EyeOfSauron]

Four sets of Marvel HS at the Walmart in Cary, NC....make that three! :)

[JIrish780]

The game is in stock at Millenium Games in Rochester, NY. It's running at above MSRP, though. Fortunately for me, I had plenty of a trading card game I was no longer playing, so I traded those in for Marvelscape and an Ashigaru pack to boot!

[Havokscry]

I hit four Wal-marts today in Central and Southern Maine and there was no Marvel Heroscape. It doesn't appear to have found it's way to the Northeast yet.

[zxc]

Found three sets in Shreveport, Louisiana Walmart. I took one home with me.

[cold_fuzion]

Unknown # of sets (They only put out one at a time)

Fanfare sports & entertainment
Kalamazoo, MI

[IAmBatman]

I went to school in Kalamazoo (WMU).

[kookalives]

It seemed that every Wal-Mart I've been in here in the Denver metro area over the last few days has them now.

My guess is they're going to be real easy to find from here on out.

[Havokscry]

The Wal-mart in Waterville, Maine has one left. :D That's the only Wal-mart I've seen them in between Bangor and Scarborough.

The good news is that they've hit the Northeast!

[King's Knight]

The walmart in Danville, VA has a couple of marvel sets...

[NecroBlade]

One set at SciFi City in Orlando. They're asking $40 for it, though, which is why it isn't in my possession.

[TexHex]

Heroscape in Laredo Texas seems to be deader than a slug in two pounds of salt.
Heck, it's so unknown here that my wife bought two Master Sets at
Wal-Mart for 19.99... on CLEARANCE!

How sad is that?!

Don't get me wrong, $19.99 over $39.99 is great any given day, but it comes to show you how weak board and dice games are in South Texas.

Needless to say, we order all of our stuff online as we probably won't see the Marvel Heroscape here until the Christmas holidays...

Speaking of which, I need to check on my HouseMouseGames order...
(plug not intended)

[Lord-IVD]

Well the Kalispell MT WAL MART recived 3 sets of MARVEL on 7/27/07 so
I finaly have one !! :D

[drewcula]

This morning I spotted; 1 Marvel box in Dunkirk's Walmart and 2 Marvel boxes in Prince Frederick's Walmart.

Prince Frederick also had wave 6.

That is all. Happy Monday.

[Argent]

The Wal-Mart in Hermitage, TN has 2. (they did have 3 :wink: )

And I agree. They should be pretty easy to find now I think. MarvelScape didn't have to wait for something else to sell out in order to get stocked, like wave expansions do.

[Scape_Scrub11]

I found tow at Johnny Cee Cards they also had Wave 7...so if you live by me you know where to go!

[mathguy]

The Princeton Walmart had 3, but now has 1 left, as of 6:20pm anyway. (I bought one for myself, one for my nephew, but left one for a fellow scaper. I do plan on buying one more later on.)

[Tiberius]

My friend saw the marvelscape in Walmart in Punxsutawney Pa a few days ago but when I sent my wife there yesterday, they were all sold out. She talked with the representative there and they told her that next week the wallmarts are supposed to put them on the shelves. They had put them out earlier than they were supposed to. So, at least for that area, look for the marvelscape in the wallmarts.

Anyone know any codes for KB?

J&J Cards in Waterloo,ON has a whole bunch of them. Maybe 20 sets in a big display. $32.99.

[spiderM9]

There's one left at Wonko's on 183.

[Hahnarama]

I bought it. I DO NOT believe that I caved and bought it. It must be that little Wisinger inside of me. I caved to the OCD.

There is one left @ Wally World in Avon, IN(Metro Indy)

Maybe I bought it becasue the Wally World Toy Hag was being such a bee-aatchh about getting a ladder to get it down from the top shelf for me. Ya that must be why I bought it.

Target has it online, but for $29.99 instead of the much more friendly $24.96 of your local friendly neighborhood saintly WalMart.

Toys R Us and KMart still do not show it online.

Target on Sunnyside Road had two left this afternoon

[ROM]

I've yet to see any at any of the Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Target, or Meijers that I've been to recently in the Columbus, Ohio area. I broke down and ordered it last night from etoys.com. I am planning on receiving it in the next 10 days or so.

My Wal-Mart had the new layouts for the game aisle posted, with space cleared and the sticker back up for the Marvel set, just above and to the left of the master set...so I'm guessing it's any day now here in the Toledo area.

Hey you're the man cold_fuzion! I loaded my wife and son in the van on a hot-ass thursday night during rush hour and through craploads of construction to drive all of 45 minutes to K-zoo...

To find my Marvel Scape at Fan Fare sports!

That store's kinda cool by the way, do you go there much?

Target - Long Island - Friday night - two sets MarvelScape. 'Nuf said.

[allskulls]

MoVal Target has Marvelscape.

[cyco1973]

I bought mine at Clem's Collectibles at Glenbrook Mall in Fort Wayne, IN. It was their only copy, but I'm sure they can order more if there is an interest. Again it's marked up like most gaming stores, but I figured it was better to support local retail...that and get the game which no other place in town has.

[Kahrma]

I found one set at the Blue Springs, MO Wal-Mart. I haven't even noticed a space for Marvel HS at Target.

[Slaader]

The Target in Worcester,MA had 3...now they have 2! :lol:

[hi1hi1hi1hi1]

A Walmart on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina had one. As I approached the gaming asile I saw a kid walk out with a Marvelscape. I turned the corner to find Heroscape, but no Marvelscape. He took the last one. I asked the kid afterwards and he said it was the last one. UGH 2 minutes earlier and I would have had a Marvelscape, TWO freaking minutes!!!!

[Lotus]

Wal-Mart, Edinboro, Pa - Had some, but they are sold out. I imagine more'll be in soon though.

[hi1hi1hi1hi1]

So far is Target selling them for $30 at every store?

[johnny139]

Just checked the Walmart in Weymouth... nothing there, sadly, but there's a shipment that should be coming in 2-3 weeks.

I just bought Wave 6 Heroes instead. :D

[soberman]

I have a shelf-tag sighting! They have had the tag on the new games aisle at my nearby, as in 5 min walk, Wal-Mart since Monday. Luckily, I was able to obtain a copy at my Comic Book Shop last week or I'd be tearing out my hair right now!

[JuicerGM]

Wal Mart in Chino Spectrum in SoCall had the Marvel Heroscape on shelves 3 copies.

[Taelord]

There were three sets in the Wal-Mart in Three Rivers.

[Reptilae]

The Super Target in Fort Myers, FL had sets on the shelf tonight.

[Tiberius]

Most of the Walmarts in my area (south western Pa) now have the marvelscape (no wave 7 though)

[darkmask]

I found two marvel sets at the walmart in new castle PA.. and another to sets at walmart in hermitage, oh wait.. i just bought that one :) .. wow.. its christmas in Aug.

[Kepler]

I have seen the Marvel HS at the Target ($30) in Allen Park Michigan (at Outer Dr and Southfield Freeway) and at the Walmart ($25) in Taylor (Telegraph and Ecorse) Michigan.

[HS Beast]

If your local Wal-Mart hasn't gotten it in yet, you can order it online right now with Free Ship to Store.

$24.96 with no shipping... great deal. :)

I went to my closest local friendly discount warehouse owned by an outfit in Arkansas and saw the Marvelscape sticker. I tracked down someone who worked in some other department because the toy person was hiding from me and asked her if they might have any in the back. She took the sticker and went someplace (underground bunker, perhaps). When she came back she said that three will be delivered that night.

The next morning I go in to find most of the toy shelves half-empty. I track down another employee and he tells me that the shelves won't be stocked until Monday or Tuesday and the item I want is probably buried under a pile of boxes in the back, and they'd have no way of knowing where it even is back there.

I laughed it off and left. But soon I shall have my vengance.

[as193009]

I finally found a copy at my local Walmart. There are 3 Marvel HS left at the Eastwood (Lake Lansing) Walmart in Lansing, MI as of noon Friday. There was new space set aside for expansions but no Wave 7 stocked yet.

[ICOOLDUDE]

There was a few in the target in bonner springs kansas for 30 dollars- I'll be picking one up today :D :D :D

[Kahrma]

I saw three Marvel HS at the Target on 39th Street in Independence, MO today. Since I already picked up a set last week at WM, all three are still there....

[Hazard]

The Warmart near highway 83 and I94 in Delafield, WI has 6 and the target across the street has 2. No wave 7 (just tons of wave 6).

[ej]

"Well, the problem is that I'd have to scan every single box, because they're not labelled, see?"

"This one would say Hasbro on the side, and it's about this big..."

"Scanning every single box would take quite a while, sir."

"...bu"

"Yep, that would take quite a while."

"..."



UPDATE: Due to the above exchange, and the general "so the **** what"-ness of some other WalMart employees, I decided to buy Marvelscape from Target. Yes, it cost $5 more, but for the first time in my life I'm actually HAPPY to spend more money and I'm going to tell Wal-Mart why!

[Lotus]

Wal-Mart, Edinboro, PA has them on shelf, I saw 3.

[saintBYgrace]

Ok, If you are in the Dallas area the Target right off of NorthWest Highway and Skillman has three as of yesterday (8/10/07). I work at the P1 right by there so I stop by there often. The price is $29.99, funny as Wal-Mart is selling theirs for $24.98 (but then again, Target seems to run a bit more on things). Anywho, there you have it and now you know... (and knowing is half the battle...)

God Bless and Keep Faith;

[Jormi_Boced]

It is in the Austin Target now as well.

[champrjk]

I opened a the first box of marvel to arrive at my clackamas TRU.

[Eclipse]

I saw a box in the north WalMart in Rochester, MN

[SSJ3Godzilla]

Marvelscape, RotV, and Wave 5 are the only things that my Wal-Mart (Stuart, FL) seems to carry now. O well, it is better than having nothing new at all.

I am sure that my local Target (Jenson Beach) also has it, but I was too busy buying more zombies to notice...

[ej]

I sent off a scathing letter to WalMart today to tell them what I think of their unhelpful employees.

I'm sure the sounds of crickets I heard after hitting send were just a matter of it being late summer.

[Malicain]

The have 2 set of Marvel Heroscape at the Target accross from Virginia Center Commons in the Richmond VA area.

They couldn't have been as bad as our day time shift. They wont even say "What can I help you find today?" to any of the customers. They outright ignore them. The customers have to go around looking on their own or try and steal something to get the employees attention.

[Chuckrock]

Houston Wal_Marts have it now.

No Wave 7 yet

[Annerios]

I saw the sets available in Little Elm and Frisco, TX Wal-Marts over the weekend.

They have papers up for stocking again at one of the locations. Sadly, there was no mention of shelf space for Swarm of the Marro.

[champrjk]

My store does not reserve shelf space for future items. They simply downsize facings from other games so that it can fit in when they get some in stock. I don't see why other stores would be much different.

[KingArthur1976]

Spotted the Marvel master-sets in Wally-World in Batesville MS while visiting the 'rents.

Havn't seen it here in the capital city of Jackson, but I'm sure it won't be long.

[Lotus]

champrjk - If you a referring to a Wal-Mart that does that, then they are idiots and should be put down, they are not supposed to do that, ever. What they are doing is attempting to make their store look full even though it isn't, which is a way to get themselves larger bonuses, big time bad, every manager there could get canned for that one.

[LilNewbie]

I saw 2 copies of MHS in a Target over the weekend in the area. I was in the store picking up a copy of Transformers Risk!! Booyah!!

Newb.

[Lotus]

Lilnewb, how is that, been considering picking it up.

I'm refering to my TRU that I work at. We have plenty of shelf space and fill it with multiple facings of of the same thing. The only time we do not downsize if they are yellow ticket items. It works fine for my store. However I must add that the store I now work at is pretty messed up.

[jcb231]

Virtually every Target and Wal-Mart in my area has it now, ditto for TRU.

[bad_calvin]

Owosso MIchigan Walmart. There are about 4 sets left. It will end up being 3 if there are more there this weekend still.

[Eclipse]

I saw Marvel at the Rochester, MN TRU and Target recently. The only place that doesn't seem to have it is the South Walmart, which sorta got burned by Wave 5 and seems to be holding a grudge :(

[bad_calvin]

I saw 2 copies of MHS in a Target over the weekend in the area. I was in the store picking up a copy of Transformers Risk!! Booyah!!

Newb.

hey.. have you had a chance to play it yet? How is it? My son wanted me to pick it up. It's just that we have Risk already.. not sure if it is going to be that much different.

Lotus and BC,

I've not played Transformers Risk yet but liked what I read in the rules. There are 4 sections on the board that can be "transformed" by playing cards. Two of the sections are circular and a player can open or close access to the sections (by rotating the sections). The other two sections can slide out revealing special sections beneath them that give bonus units to the army controlling that section. The danger in using the sliding sections is that other players can close them on their turn by playing cards and then crush any remaining units in the revealed section. Combat is the same as normal Risk but each army has a leader that can use better dice (d8s) when attacking or defending if they are in that section. The basic concepts of Risk still apply but the cards you draw for winning sections adds an element of surprise and they can be played for various effects. The game pieces are cool looking robots (counts as 1 unit) and tanks (counts as 3 units) and you can play up to 4 players. The leaders can also choose to be in robot or vehicle mode and their armies get different effects depending on the mode chosen. Each leader has a plastic stand that can be flipped showing which mode they are in and the four leaders are Optimus Prime, Bumble Bee, Megatron and Barricade.

*I now return you to the regularly scheduled thread...

:D

[jacob_j_p]

Been seeing them at Targets in western suburbs of Chicago. No wave 7 yet though. And nothing new (Marvel or W7) at the local Walmarts.

[Lotus]

Wal-Mart, Erie, Pa on Peach St had a few when I was there a little bit ago. As did Toy's R Us.

[Avenger]

[wimba808]

[Uprising]

Just saw 3 sets of Marvel at the TRU on Wolf Rd in Albany, NY. They also had 4 packs of Rats and Warriors and about 12 sets of freakin' Orm's Return. Can you beleive that. Those sets weren't there 2 weeks ago. They must still have a stock pile of freakin' Orms.

[Taeblewalker]

I found 3 in the Monticello, NY Wal-Mart (though my friend and I bought them all).

[Faustus]

Target and TRU in Northgate (near Seattle) has many Marvel sets...

[ChilliDog]

Just (FINALLY!) showed up at my local Wally World here in South Eastern PA.

[Metaknight]

Just got one at a WAL-mart in Northern Jersey! Woo! Hoo!

[rdhight]

Marvel is in stock at the Ocean Beach Highway Wal-Mart in Longview, Washington, along with a full load of Wave 6.

[ares834]

[deadeyedan42]

Nabbed one at target in Cambridge MN. :excited:

[Ultarium]

[DaveyNY]

Walmart.com dropped the price for the MARVEL MS to $26 bucks.
Just in case anybody was interested.

[NecroBlade]

The Target in the Waterford Lakes Plaza in Orlando now has quite a few Marvelscape.

[DaveyNY]

Walmart.com dropped the price for the MARVEL MS to $26 bucks.
Just in case anybody was interested.


Somebody must have been interested, (several somebodies) cause now Walmart.com is OUT of the set!!!

[Mindfreak]

any in Pittsburgh?????????

[hi1hi1hi1hi1]

Just got one at a WAL-mart in Northern Jersey! Woo! Hoo!Yea I know, North Jersey takes a long time to get new Heroscape. You'd think being near the City we'd get a lot quickly, but its not the case.

[Metaknight]

Yeah, usually we don't get anything 'till like 3 months after its release. Wave 7 is still nowhere to be found. :grumble:

[Faustus]

TRU in Northgate (Seattle, WA) had about 8 or 9 Marvelscapes in stock!

[Sherman Davies]

The TRU on Bay Parkway in Brooklyn, NY has about 5 or 6 Marvel sets.
