Hey Jason. Welcome to Rebelscum. I'm not from Lafayette, but I live Northshore of Lake Pontchartrain. We have a collector's group in Baton Rouge that we attend every month, so come on by if you're interested. Enjoy the rest of the forums and all that Rebelscum has to offer.

Found a case of TAC at the New Iberia K-mart. Also saw a case minus 1 Airborne and one McQ in Lake Charles. Both finds were today.

Hiya...
Just found most of the Force Unleashed figures at the Wal-Mart on Evangeline Thruway...sadly they only had one of each.
Actually I live in Broussard and would love hearing from anyone nearby.

I'm from Monroe area but am down in Lake Charles working for a few months.

Hit the clearance motherload in Crowley. TAC and SL for $3 and WM comic packs for $5. Still some Pit Droids and Boba/RA-7s left.

I have yet to see a WM put any of the newer figs on clearance! I'm jealous!

How many Lafayette, Collectors are there? What area are you in?
My name is Jason, and I live in Broussard, but search the B-town, Lafayette, and C-town (Carencro)

Covington area here

andybear32 · Mar 27, 2011

Just saw your other post in Recent Aquisitions. Glad to know something new is in the state. I live in a small town and won't be getting to larger cities (Lafayette and Lake Charles) until the weekend coming up. At least knowing people are finding the newer wave gives some hope!

jasonwelcome · May 2, 2011

Hey guys, I haven't seen anything new since the latest snakeyes wave (ultimate snake eyes)

Starwars newest is the newest versions of Cad Bane, Obi and so on.

Marvel Universe nothing new
Iron Man nothing new
I did pick up Loki (gave him Desert storm shadows claws) made a good GI Joe villain.

Thats all for now.

adrian845 · May 27, 2011

I've snagged a couple of Aqua Droids and buddies have picked up the Entire Wolffe wave for me recently in the BR area. Another friend grabbed the Colt Wave for me but he was in Alabama at the time.

Off Topic- I also picked up a Red Skull & Crossbones for the guys who grabbed the figs for me. So that wave of Captain America is actually out there right now in case you are looking.

Good luck hunting!

jasonwelcome · Jun 7, 2011

If anyone finds the new Gi Jo Pursuit of Cobra - Cobra Troopers I'd really appreciate the help.

Greycap · Jun 8, 2011

Found Lando and Dagobah Luke at a WM here in Baton Rouge.

Also, the WM near me has new pegs set up for GI Joe (after the reset). So maybe they WILL carry Joes afterall.

jasonwelcome · Jun 17, 2011

that would be so great! I keep looking for Cable...well havent hunted in a while but. I am on the look out for him and still nothing on that front...more a lost cause Im afraid

adrian845 · Jun 22, 2011

Jason, don't give up on Cable. I found one a couple of weeks ago for a buddy in BR, if I see another one I'll grab it for you.

jasonwelcome · Jun 25, 2011

That would be great! I have a thanos for trade if your interested.

adrian845 · Jul 1, 2011

We'll work something out if I can find one.

andybear32 · Jul 3, 2011

I forget to check this thread! Glad there is some going on.

Greycap · Jun 20, 2012

It seems like Slidell is the same way.....we only tpm wave right now. I have seen the blu ray set of figs once, but they went like hot cakes and never came back.

PrimetimeJedi · Jul 9, 2012

Slidell, Covington and Hammond are in a dry spell..... Covington Walmart did get in the new 3 packs but they were all smashed up.
