Apparently it just opened on Sunday. I only took a quick glance because I was in a hurry, but I saw some NFL Legends 5, NFL 20 and CFB 1 regs plus some NBA. I picked up an Archie Manning and a white jersey UGA H. Ward.

Stopped by the I-10 Bunker Hill TRU today as I was in the area. Picked up a Doan chase #225 and it's already traded. I don't do hockey.
Nice store and it seems huge compared to the other's I frequent.

Lemieux chase today. Sadly not the superchase. Already spoken for.
Man I want to see some NFL 20 other than countless Romos and Roethlisbergers.

Took off early to get ready for my trip so I decided to stop by the new Memorial TRU just to check it out. That place is huge! Definitely the nicest and biggest one in H-town. I was surprised by the SP section to because it was pretty good sized. Alot bigger than the ones I'm used to seeing. I knew all the chase would be gone and I was right(damn u guys that beat me to them!:p) I did pick up a reg Brodeur though to add to my HOF collection :)

All over the place Bill. Started off in Honolulu(Waikiki, Oahu) then hit Ford Island to check out Pearl Harbor. That was interesting but the USS Missouri was in dry dock so that was dissappointing. Oh well, next time around. Then took another hour long flight to visit my gf's family on Hilo which is where the black sand beach is. If you ever get a chance to snorkel with sea turtles, do it....super cool!
I'm actually in a cafe right now staring at the beach. Our food just got here so I'm out fellas! :D

I picked up a Romo/Witten 2-pack tonight at the I-10/Memorial City TRU, as of 6:00 pm there were two left. I stopped by the Westheimer TRU afterward, nothing.

Picked up two of the Ward 2-packs Sat at the Memorial TRU. They had three but one had a pretty banged up corner so I left it. Also, no Cowboys 2-packs anywhere in sight.

I saw 3 or 4 of them earlier today at the Willowbrook TRU. I thought about getting it, but I bet they'll be on clearance in a few months just like the Jets Favre.

I stopped by there earlier on my way home today, around 2:30 and they were all gone. They did however have plenty of Manning 3-pks though. That's actually a pretty good looking set imo. If any of you see any of the TRU Favres can you plmk because as you can see I've had no luck at all finding these things.

I went by the TRU Memorial City today. They had some NFL 21 (no Witten :( ), along with a a couple each of the 12" Romo and Ben R, Polamalu/Ward 2-pack and the Manning 3 pack.
MarkG
11-12-2009, 09:53 PM
Saw the 12" Romo today but didn't see the Ben. The Romo looked good but I think I'm passing. No NFL 21 just purple Favres.
Oh yea, this was OST.

Sugar Land TRU had a Cutler and Polamalu left from Series 21 and a couple of 12in Romo's. What's up with that baby blue helmet? They had another case of him and Ben up top still sealed. Still no purple Favre's though! Are there any of these at Memorial City because I still need some.

HEY GUYS!!!!!!!!!!
I know, I know. Been forever :)
Are there (safe) alternatives to parking at a Texans game besides the maroon/purple/etc lots or metrorail? I may be able to go on Monday, but only see where a parking pass is $55+. Also, some listings say "food voucher mandatory." WTH?
Please advise asap.
Thanks!

If anybody stops by WM and is looking for SP's, please check the DC Classics figs. I'm looking for wave 10 which is a WM exclusive. The wave has Batman, Joker, Manbat, Powergirl, Beastboy, Robotman and Forager. Just need the one's highlighted.
Here is a pic of the packaging:

I saw (black suit) Batman and Joker at the Wally World @ Bissonnet on 9460 W Sam Houston Pkwy South this morning. Packaging seemed to be in good shape.

Nice! I haven't even seen a hint of NFL 21 at any of the WMs I've stopped at.
I may need one or both of those chases so if you don't find a deal for them let me know.

I just hit the SWM on 290 during lunch and finally scored, unfortunately not Sp's though. A full set of the WM exclusive DC Universe wave 10 and some Star Wars for the little on! I thought I'd never find a complete set of this stuff:) As for the Sp's, only a single Big Ben from S20 and still no sign of S21 or Favre :(

hey fellas, haven't been around much as of late...hope everyone's doin well! Just wanted to let you guys know that I'll probably be posting most of my 6" NFL to sale shortly, my son's needing his room back now that he's 3 yrs old for his own toys, and really don't want to box em up for storage. Hit me up if anyone's looking for anything.
