Yeah, I forgot to mention, after seeing Pixar Builder’s post, I ran down to my TRU, and there was nothing new. They did have Jessie $10 off, and they are also running a new promotion where you get a free TS3 movie ticket with any TS purchase over $25.
Hey guys!
My Lotso is starting to lose his scent after only 2 weeks of having him.
It’s probably because I carry him around everywhere, instead of leaving him like a collectors item, and it’s understandable, but what would you recommend in order to get the smell back? I remember someone mentioned air fresheners, but I don’t want to ruin the fur on Lotso.
you could get some strawberry perfume and spray it on Lotso, or ask thinkway to send you a bottle of his sent, although i don’t know if they have done this in the past or not.
Oh, yeah, sorry I forgot to mention his price. He’s the standard $50. I found him the Toys R Us at Northern California.
i just got Bullseye too from Toys R Us in So Cal. He’s in great condition. They must finally be hitting the stores…
I’ll probably have a look to see if my Toys R Us has Bullseye tomorrow since I’ll be out and about anyway. Great to see him starting to show up in stores!
How much did Bullseye cost?
Is he the standard 50 or is he more expensive like RC?
yes, he’s 50
Ack, he’s out? now I gotta decide if I want him next or Jessie.
and it is indeed interesting tthat they have slashed Jessie’s price. think thats with all toys R us stores? or just that specific one? if its the whole chain then either thinkway or something is admitting she’s subpar I take it… Im almost wondering if I should hold out for a better one. but so far there are no better alternatives in my book. the second best one to me is the mattel one, but even that has the hair all wrong. I think I’d rather have her thick in the waist then have her hair like that. the head sculpt is doesnt bother me like a lot of you guys, its mainly the waist and back of the head. for me.
but I know we’ve all said our peace on her at this point…
Bullseye on the other hand seems perfect, assuming I can find one without those glaring quality control issues.
II’ll likely pick up one or the other the day I see TS3 if they have one. if they only have Jessie I might cave and get her first. if they have both, or just Bullseye II think 'll go with him.
Although with my luck they wont have either.
For me it’s either RC or Bullseye, as I really just need a vehicle for my Woody and Buzz. I really like Bullseye because, from what I’ve seen, he’s an exact model replica of the Bullseye I’ve seen on the screen and easily the most accurate of the Toy Story Collection set. However, I do like RC a bit more because he has so much more potential as a remote control autonomous vehicle. It’s just that the front wheels don’t move and he’s only infrared instead of actual radio controlled.
At any rate, I think I’ll just wait until I get Hamm to make any decisions for a new TSC toy.
I would take anything from the new wave now. We still have nothing in the UK. Doesn’t look like we will get anything until next month when the film comes out here. Still, I should have enough saved to buy the whole lot.
Woah, John finally did another one?!
It’s been quite a while I didn’t think he would. I’m guessing this must have been delayed since the Potato Head in the video is the one with the brown legs, and he didn’t seem to have a lot to say about this one either. I also noticed that when he pressed down on his hat they didn’t let you hear him talk or show his parts popping off.
I’m so glad you found him because that means that in a couple of weeks my TRU will have him
Also, Jenny confirmed my question. when she said he was available in Fall she meant in Europe. July for North America. Now that’s cleared up.
Actually, according to this week’s TRU sales flyer, TSC Woody, Buzz and Jessie should all be on sale for 39.99.
