That said, I've found too many of the Kevin Flynn discs to believe it's happening at a large scale in my area. Of course, the markup on the 2" figures is going to be even more than a KF disc... |
I actually believe that eBay sellers LURK here to see what is popular and being released so they can scoop up and sell them on eBay. |
so does anyone have any idea if there ar KF discs anywhere in the Midway City, CA area? or anywhere in california? |

Well, my package from the UK still hasn't arrived. According to the post office, the address label came off, so they had to send it to a dead mail center where its currently waiting for a new label. So it may take up to another month to get here. *sigh* Its stupid, since its only a 2 hour drive away.
Also, I went to a Walmart the other day and ALL of their remaining Tron Legacy toys were in the clearance isle. Not good. However, the clearance prices were the same as they originally were. Not very clearanced if you ask me.abortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion

Re: Tron merch heading to the clearance aisles. This makes complete sense. Since the movie has disappeared into the collective rearview of adults and kids and only two figures surfaced comprising a meager Wave 2, interest in the figures/vehicles/etc. appears to have all but dried up. This is to be expected though, especially with the movie now several months behind us and zero new product for over a month now.
The question is, why isn't Spinmaster willing to put more support behind this line for future waves? Wheat King stated SM is sitting on quite a bit of already produced stock, but in order to generate interest in the old you kind of have to be willing to take a chance on the new, right? Meaning, if you produce new waves (perhaps of the aforementioned video game characters with a smattering of movie thrown in) this will, by association, also move some of the older Tron movie product. Heck, it works for Halo: Reach and other similar action figure lines, so why not Tron? I guess this is just another case of a toy company missing the boat on a golden opportunity.abortion pills online http://www.kvicksundscupen.se/template/default.aspx?abortion-questions cytotec abortion

Well dangitall, I can't find the thread about the Ult. Clus w/ Katanas! Maybe my eyes are failing?
Anywho: just received my order for one of them from Amazon.com.
-initiate party music-
It has a Katana!!!! WOOHOO!! Yeah yeah, I know. It's the little things in life
The odd thing: the other 2 Ult. Clus I got from TRU which DIDN'T have Katanas both have that :O face before and after saying a phrase.
The one I just got WITH the Katana? Has him smiling before and after each phrase!
I wonder if there's a connection here?
I ordered one more from Amazon the other day, and it's on its way here. Will update when it arrives.

This email I recieved from SM today Response (Steve O'Halloran) 03/02/2011 10:34 AM
Hi Tray,
Thanks for your questions and thank you for your patience on our response. Moving forward Spin Master will not be continuing with the Tron line so that anything made to this point will be released, but no new products will be made.
Thanks for your continued interest in Tron, and thanks for choosing Spin Master.
Funny to see Trays name in my email...lol
So in regards to my ? that I sent SM its still unanswerd about Castor being released....
Wheat King ...was Castor ever made before they decided to hold him back for series 3 ?
So many questions remain .....What product was made to this point ??? It would be nice to put the final nail in the coffin....

Great news Flamanar!
In semi-related news, I just got an S2 Clu with Katana from Disney Store. So if anyone was looking for an S2 Orange Clu with Katana that's your best bet (40% off right now.) My S2 Clu purchased at Target came with a baton. Luckily I haven't opened him so now he's going back
edit: On topic of Spin Master they claim they are done with Tron, does that mean they aren't producing the TV Series line now?order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pillwhere to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

No. There were about 300 Castor figures produced that were pulled from the casepacks and destroyed or distributed to the employees. bummer. i like that figure.

Wheat King, I wonder if you could clear up the deal with Clu's katana?
Why was it removed from the 12" and the 4" dolls in later S2 runs? Do you know which of the variants is rarer (S2 w/ Katana or S2 w/o Katana?)
Also, are there any other minor differences in the 4" S2 recards (I believe it was Sam, Rinzler and perhaps Black Guard) vs their S1 versions?

sorry to break the news about Castor. It was a Disney/talent approval issue and we COULD NOT - as the licensee - put the product on the shelf. No choice. the problem was fixed in time for the next wave...but we all know how that worked out.
Again, sorry guys. There are a lot of things I wish had happened differently. where to buy abortion pill http://blog.bitimpulse.com/template/default.aspx?abortion-types buy abortion pill online

Well at least Castor made it to the 2" action pack line....now all we have to do is find it or order it from Germany.

Disney/Talent approval issue? You mean that they did not APPROVE of the figure? What didn't they approve of? Do you know and/or could you tell us? I'm very curious what the issue was.where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online
