That is usually the standard with every line, but I've not found that to be the case with TMNT. Usually the first day they're reported hitting, it's somewhere in the Northern Mid-west. I usually see Minnesota get them first, for some reason. By the second day they're hit, Kentucky has them, followed by the east coast on the third day.

I've noticed that once a wave of TMNT hits, within a week, they're everywhere, in multiple states, at multiple retailers. At least Playmates does THAT right...

Of course, Quarry is an oddity, and defies logic.

Please tell us!

Couldnt go to the store yesterday but I went today. The shelves were not stocked I asked the guy what gives and he said their behind or something. I asked him if I could just buy them out of the box in the back and he said no because their not allowed to do that. That was the guy who worked in the toy department who said that. Then I asked the manager because the guy who works in the toy deaprtment is a jerk anyways. The manager said that if the toy department guy doesnt stock shelves on time then I can go get what I want out of the back. So I went back there and asked the guy for the Quarry figures and he said he couldnt find them but hes sure he remembers seeing the box for them because he had moved them earlier that day. I guess Ill have to wait until the stock shleves. If its only one box Ill have to get them reallllly fast

I swear if I see that toy guy is going to get it if he's doing that! I dont trust that guy

TheCloneRanger · 07-01-2004, 11:20 PM

Are we thinking this is a whole case of Quarry figures? 16 Quarries? If that's the case, (heh...case...) I don't think we're going to have any trouble finding her.

*Spitfire* · 07-01-2004, 11:33 PM

Thats only 16 figures though. With all the little brats that run through my store heres what will happen
5 kids will buy figures
4 kids will run around the store with get told they cant have them and then cry and put it back in the wrong place

either that or he is ********ting you...
cause those assz at stores like to do that to people...
I remember when I was a little boy I used to go to toys r us and they would lie to me and tell me this and that had come out when it hadn't even shipped yet.....or they told me that yea theres a toy of that guy he just came out I got him the other day...god that pissz me of so damn much!
that's why when I hit my teen years I made sure i got a job at toys r crap....and helped everyone i could with usfullinformation and make sure the shleves were stocked even if I'd get yelled at lol.
