I wonder if Wal*Mart will price match this. __________________ The United States will conquer Terrorism with the help of God and a few Marines. Some people, when trying to avoid thinking about those things that cause them pain, turn to drink, or perhaps food, or drugs... I turn not to any of those... I collect action figures, turning my mind to the hunt, so that I might find a mote of peace... Over the years, I've found that alcoholism is much more socially acceptable by far.

And the Mark up for the movie Figures was Atrocious (sp?). What drives this is the Grandmother Shopping for Timmy's birthday. She doesn't know the difference and pays that outrageous price, justifying keeping it at that price! Most of the WalMarts and Targets around here are pretty much out of ROC figures, because they have all went on Clearance down to anywhere from $2.59 to $.88. The only things that haven't gone down in price is the Target Exclusives...STILL $9.99 here!
