The last couple weeks I have spotted the wave that Sif and the new Destroyer figure come in at the King of Prussia, Pa, TRU by seeing the glow in the dark Thors number on the pegs growing.
Seems that twice in the last two weeks Sif has come in (one per case, two cases in two weeks), and both were bought by the same person. First one was bought when she went out on the pegs, the second by this same person demanding the stock guys there pull her out as he 'knew' the figure was there. Sigh...these stock guys at this store are super nice and don't deserve to be treated that way.
At least they told me they would hold a Sif for me if another came in, and I said "Nahhh, that's ok. Put it out in the hopes some kid sees her and gets to buy her too...if I catch her on the pegs I catch her on the pegs." These are also the same stock guys and gals that are always super nice to me and I am becoming pretty good friends with.
But....that all said, I was out at the Reading, Pa, TRU early this past Saturday morning (this store is about an hour east of where I normally go to) and there was Sif...right on the pegs. I know the stock guys here well too as I used to work out this way, and it was the 2nd or 3rd time they had put her out, andnot bought by this guy. So I picked her up and went on my way. Also picked up the new Destroyer figure and one of the glow in the dark Thors.
Ending my small rant on not finding Sif/then finding Sif.
Moral of the tale: Toy Karma will always back you up. Be nice to the kids who toys are made for and the stock people you see, and eventually you find the toy you are looking for.
