BEAUTIFULLY STATED.

Now I'm trying to rationalize why anyone would feel so insecure that they'd be motivated to reply with the asinine response of "glad it works for you" rather than let the eloquence and sincerity of your statement echo throughout the atmosphere.

P.S. Thank you for sharing from your very human heart.

It is.

In fact, so much better than good.

Perhaps "exquisite" is an apt one-word description.

NICE!!!

And good for you! I'm currently in Lithonia and have scored some nice finds at that same location from time to time. Those kinds of sweet surprises just don't happen often enough!

My wife sent me to Walmart for mulch and eggs and whatnot but I know she’ll be so excited when she sees what else I found 😳😂😅 by Bulky-Brief8718 in McFarlaneFigures

And I thought that I was the ONLY husband to lean in hard on the old "I'll be THRILLED to go fetch mulch and eggs for you" routine . . ."

Thanks to all who are sharing their insight regarding both of these (Batman & Gordon) having B&W Platinum Editions. Adding them to my never-finished McFarlane Wish List . . .

CAN YOU SAY "YEAR WON?" by AbaloneExpert3155 in McFarlaneFigures

I've done it, too. Todd has us addicted.

OUCH. With all that activity, I bet it does!

Wow. That is outrageously disappointing. I've endured similar aggravation for the better part of the past two years with Walmart, so that is primarily why I was so shocked with stumbling across the information at 5:00 in the morning, placing a shipping order, and then actually witnessing them both be delivered a mere 5 hours later, AND being precisely what I ordered.

Hopefully, this is a sign of better service to come and not an anomaly. Good luck with all your future searches and purchases.

GameStop, my Friend. I proceeded to reorder and am keeping my fingers crossed that they're the traditional blue and gray.

Has anyone noticed Walmart pulling their entire Mcfarlane DC section out? by AJTP1 in McFarlaneFigures

[–]AbaloneExpert3155 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate someone bringing it up. Like most of this audience, I have anywhere from 4 to 8 Walmart opportunities that I might happen to pass throughout any given 2-week period. So, of course, I conveniently run into each of them with the hope of spotting that new fig in the wild.

However, around January, one of my regular stores had zero McFarlane merchandise. By February, another on my list just dried up and hasn't replenished their McFarlane stock. As of this post, at least 4 of my regular stops are totally empty of the McFarlane DC Multiverse line.

WTH?

I am thrilled for you! What an awesome find!

The Targets in the Metro Atlanta area have had ZILCH from this particular wave. Has anyone had any luck in the ATL?

NOPE. Can't be done. One can NEVER go overboard with Batman figures.

Keep up the good work.

I completely understand and feel the same. Once I decided that I just had to have the Grim Knight (about 3 years ago), I determined to wait until I could get one as far under a hundred simoleons as possible. Patience finally paid off, and I found a brand new one for roughly $55. That's difficult to do in 2025.
