Wow, these look awesome. I loved Bend-Ems in the pre-POTF2 Star Wars days. I'm looking for the Walgreen's exclusive TRON figures as well so tomorrow morning I'm going hunting!

None at my Walgreens, and they had a pretty large Halloween display.

I went to 3 Walgreens today. The first two I didn't check the actual toy aisle. The third I did. They were in the toy aisle with Batman Bendems. They originally had 8 (2 of each). There was one set of each left. They had just gotten them in. Make sure to check the toy aisle not just the Halloween aisle

My closest WG is over 30 miles. Can't really drive that for on a slim chance of finding a Creature.

Called a few Walgreens around me to see if anyone has them. One did, but the lady there said someone bought them within an hour of them being set out, which is disappointing. This Walgreens was one that is open 24 hours, and the others that didn't have them weren't...not sure if 24 hour Walgreens could be getting them first. I dunno, could just be a coincidence.

That's for all four. Only a 300% markup. Not that unusual for eBay.

Those eBay resellers won't let anybody have anything, anymore! They swoop in the 1st day and buy everything! Then if you want one, you have to buy it from them!

I usually hate scalpers prices. However, with gas on the rise, frustration being a factor, and fearing what dregs I may run into in the wild....sometimes I just pay it and stay home.
