Just goes to show ya that you should never leave any 'Scape untouched. Move stuff around, get into them shelves. I've found a number of stuff by shifting some other product. Dad walked by the HS in WM one day and didn't see any small expansions, but when i walked by, i moved a MS or 2, a few Orms and maybe a castle to uncover the rest of W5 that i needed. I've also found W2 hidden behind some MS (not very clever hiding places) at both Target and TRU

What is tradestock??? Is it an event? Or do you just mean buy them then trade them (which would be nice).

Buy for trading. I'm sure you could find someone that needs them, they get lonely sitting on a shelf with no army to follow them...

Well, Sandra has none and most Toys'r us stores are empty. So yeah, you could easily trade them for the boosters that you may want. Or trade a couple for some snow, or a castle. If you are having a hard time finding some stuff you want, but them and trade for it. Just make sure when you trade always give and get a tracking number.

I was pretty excited to find it, the chances that there was one there let alone the exact one that we needed was just awesome. I was only half excited as my son was when he saw it. Times like that just make you feel all Super-Dad-like. I love it. My son is a good kid and he don't cause any trouble he deserves a "treat" every now and again. I am just happy that it was there.

Am I missing something, or am I the lucky one?

P.S. I bought my first four from said toys r us, then purchased the fifth online.

Yeah, my local TRUs have had reasonable amounts of flagbearers in stock every since they first showed up. I think it must just vary by region.

I was told by one of the sales folks that some guy came in and bought them all up. Probably an ebayer. So, I was just waiting patiently for a restock. I don't think that was a restock, my guess is that it was a return because it did not have a price tag on it when I picked it up.

Awesome find. LOve the story. Would have loved to see your son's reaction to you finding Acolarh. Would have been priceless.

Great story, b_c!

I can only hope my children will get as excited as your son when I introduce them to HS (although I suppose I need to beget a few first).

on the subject of pushing boxes to find flag bearers.... that happened w/ me at my (sorta) local TRU... all i see on the shelves is.... nakitas.... drones and wolves (both sets), and a few VW... im pushing away vws, all to find is more boosters listed above... when in the VERY back of the shelves... i find an ugtar and jandar flag bearer.... this was pretty good, as my area NEVER has anything good...

and... Luckier than me Bc.... id like to congo rat you on your find... Nice!
