Never this lucky, my 2 day haul
Checked Amazon yesterday, and for the 1st time (that I've seen) they had new Star Wars Vintage figures, not the 3rd party sellers, but them. Bought Vintage Vader, Dr. Evazan, and Hoth Luke, paid over the $9.99 retail in my area, $12.99 each, but considering the Phantom pegwarmers (Padawan Ani et al) are in ample supply here, the extra is no problem, plus free shipping.
After reading the posts by people who found Avengers wave 3 and the DKR Movie Masters, I decided to give it a shot. First Wal-Mart I hit had 4 or 5 Hawkeyes, 5 Skrulls, but no Widows so I got 2 of each, one for me, one for my brother. Second Wal-Mart was a few blocks away. Found 1 Widow, and 2 each of Hawkeye and the Skrull, and it looked like a case of the DKR Movie Masters were just stocked. Bought Widow, and 1 each of Bats, Bane, and the only Alfred they had. Avengers were $8.96, Movie Masters were $16.47.
This was all in So Fla, the Wal-Mart with the multiple Hawkeyes and Skrulls was the Miami Gardens store. The one with Black Widow, Hawkeye, Skrulls, and the DKR Movie Masters was the 163rd Street store. If anyone is interested, the TRU at 163rd Street had ample stock of G.I. Joe Retaliation figures and DKR Movie Masters, no Alfred though.
Congrats on the finds!! I about had a fit when I saw only 1 Skrull hanging so I could only imagine seeing everyone but her would have been worse! Hit a bunch of Targets and Walmarts last night in hopes of scoring another Black Widow for my buddy to no dice, ton of the Targets had anything and only a few Walmarts had the new stuff out. Saw MM Bane once but no Alfreds hopefully he wont be like Joker was the first month when Dark Night came out.

I'm sure since Mr. Caine is still with us and not playing Batman's most famous enemy, outside speculators won't go after him. After the initial shipments being snatched up by collectors, I'm sure he'll peg rot like the Gordon two packs. No kid appeal.
Im thinking the same thing. Wonder why they chose him in wave one and NOT Catwoman.

I saw MM Alfred @ both Walmart & Target earlier this week. As of this morning, none have been purchased.
