Major Legends 2 dump at SJ TRU stores yesterday or this morning. Found what looked light remains of 4 cases at each store, given the number of Greenes and Nitz. No Lots left at any store...only 6 Montanas left total (now there is zero)...very few Paytons. As predicted, this set is literally flying off the shelves, except for Nitz and Greene around here.

Newark TRU have a bunch of Green, Nietske, and Payton. No Lott or Joe.:( I just went to the opening of the new Walmart by Stevenson, and they don't have any football figs. Bunch of wrestling classics and ML. I was surprised, because I was the only one there and I went there @ 9 am with my son. I left a bunch of ML variants and hard to find figs and bunch of hotwheels.

It was Solano Mall for 20+ years before Westfield bought it so its still Solano Mall to me.

Be ready to be out by 9:30 a.m. for the morning skate bus departure. If the Pens play the night before, the morning skate could be optional, which leaves the best time as 4-5 p.m. before the game.

Chris told me that its not a great place, bad lighting and that the bathrooms reminded him of somthing you would see in a horror movie.
But if ownership digs into his own deep pockets and fixes things then it should be a good show, I am personally I would be very interested if it was going to be run well... and I could get someone in the area who would want to work for me... ;) as I am not going to be able to drive to Hayward on Wednesday nights & Saturdays all that often.

Well, the Hayward cardshow wasn't that great but it has possibilities for the future. Its in a huge scarey warehouse and the lighting is pretty bad when I was looking through boxed cards. Has lots of potential to grow into a huge show as word spreads. Will go back next week to see if its any better. If it does improve I might consider getting a table there sometime to sell off some extra stuff if its cheap enough :)

Today I had good luck for a change. Found 2 stray Ovechkins at TRU Sunnyvale. As I paid for them, I noticed an unopened case of NHL 13 sitting on the floor near customer service desk. After asking about it, the girl returned a few minutes later and said that the manager told her she could open it. No games or excuses for a change!Presto...one Daniel Sedin, Thornton and 2 Lundqvists for me. Also picked up another Alexander O. Sooo...not a bad haul at all. Looks like one case per store right now is hitting.

I stopped by around 1:30. Made a wrong turn inside the building and thought I walked into a room from SAW. Very scary; I recommend going to the bathroom before you go. Other than that, the place has a lot of potential. Huge space with lots of room. Lighting is not so great, and it needs paint (strange burn marks on the walls), but the people were friendly and there is a TV lounge area that makes it a little more homey.

Geez, I haven't been to that Walmart in ages. Did you check out the Hegenberger one as well? It's right across the highway from my work, so I can check tomorrow if you didn't. :)

Yea, its a bit ghetto but they do get the SPs. I've never seen SP's at the Hegenberger WM. It's tough finding any chase figs at the one on Davis cuz there's a HW collector who grabs them all up on weekdays. Lucked out and found some NFL Legends chase a couple of weeks ago there on a Saturday morning. :D

BTW a coworker went to the Hayward show on Weds. night and said it seems to be picking up some. The guy there told him it's $10 a table for Weds night and $40 for Sat. I may check it out again on Weds night (though if it was scary during the day, I can't imagine what it would be like at night... :eek: )

I remember when there were a ton of NFL 1 and 2 at the KB at South Shore Mall. That's where I picked up my first NFL figures- Faulk, Warner, and Edge. I remember putting the Urlacher back because I didn't want to get carried away. :D

12-11-2006, 09:02 PM
Yep, I'm gonna go on Wednesday. I went Saturday and it was a lot better, but still most of the folks there were attending a Yugioh tourney. A guy from Seaside came up and had great deals on NFL cards. Yeah, not the greatest 'hood for a show!

I know dude! I got here in 2003 and got to enjoy shopping there for about a year before they closed. Gotta keep checking Big 5 and Sports Chalet just in case, although they are $15 there...

I'm going Sat.- will let you know how it is...

Funny, I went to TRU on 3 different days last week looking for NFL 14. I'm burned out and of course now they're hitting.

Ducks vs. Sharks this weekend Bruce... you ready? :D

Didn't get a chance to go yesterday. Definitely going Saturday & to the signing on Sunday! :D

Saw a LJ and a S. Alexander at Bridgepoint TRU yesterday evening, looks like they got some in and maybe all the employees bought the rest :rolleyes: .
Saw more today, 2 more SA and 1 Steve Smith.

Do you guys think the traffic will be bad with the Raiders playing at home? How close is Hockey X Sports to the Coliseum?

Thanks! I'm gonna sneak the back way from Alameda over to Hegenberger. It should be gametime at the Stadium so traffic should not be too bad! :D

Oh, directions are on the link

Raiders traffic could well be an issue, so I think I'll pass on Joe. Its right across the street from the Coliseum. Picked up a snowy Troy and reg Gates this morning at Blossom Hill TRU; true to form they are leaking out one case each day. As for the Ducks...Yikes they are good. I'll be at Santana Row on Sat. morning for some autos for sure Mike. Got Giggy and Selanne on clamshells last year. Judging from tonight's game, the Sharks are really getting bored playing the Kings, and were looking towards Sat. night. Should be a tussle...;)

Damn, I would love to go get his SP signed, but I'll be at the Raider game. Way to think of football fans.

Sharkie

Big C...come over to the good side...leave the evil force...become a Niners fan and give away your Raider tix. Problem solved!

Mike: Autos at 9:15-10:00 a.m. for morning skate departure or 4:15-5:00 p.m. for pre-game departure. Hotel unknown, but probably Santana Row (last year's spot for Anaheim) or the Fairmont.

My white Thornton is almost finished...what do you put over the decals to make them less shiny? "Dull Coat"? Spray or brush? :confused:

trojansc
12-15-2006, 11:30 AM
Nothing at TRU Pinole this morning. TRU Marin had one case of NFL 14; got a chase Gates. Other figures: 1 reg Gates, 3 Bush, 2 Troy, 2 SA, 2 LJ, and 1 Smith. They also got in a case of Steelers 3 packs. :)

trojansc
12-15-2006, 11:36 AM
Hey Sharkie- I would use a dullcoat spray. This way you won't see any brush lines, and it will protect the decals as well as make them less shiny. The dullcoat will also as act as a good contrast to the gloss of the helmets, etc. :)

Bruce, 3 coats of Krylon Crystal Clear (to protect and seal the decals), follow with 3 coats of Testors Dull coat. The Krylon hides most of the brush strokes and decal lines.

What time are you going? I might meet you out there. I would like to get my Jets Selanne signed.
