Called up my local store tonight(thursday) and he hadn't recieved avengers yet. Or LOSH for that matter. Did anyone else get it and we're a bit behind or is everyone in the same boat. (Don't be silly Daniel! Fancy Croftminster releasing things on time. You know the venue owner laughs now whenever you ask if prize support has come in.)

Kings Comics in the city had some Avengers - they usually get things a bit earlier than the game stores. A bunch of us grabbed boosters last night; I bought eight (seven for me and one for the judge) and when other people at our venue discovered that Kings was still charging the old retail price for them they left the tournament for a few minutes to pick up the rest of their stock.

I don't think that Kings had Legion.

Tin Soldier and Games Paradise don't have Avengers yet; they're waiting on CM.

I thought kings might have some, after they got origin early too. I'm planning on purchasing a few bricks, so a few boosters wouldn't have really helped me much. I really gotta get into kings rather than rely on a mail order account by the sounds of it though. The fact that can charge the old price for them too is really good news.

That's a very good price for a brick - $11 per booster! Wow.

The Tin Soldier has Avengers in.

Unlimited Hobbies has avengers now too but no LOSH either. Bought 2 cases, 240 bucks each. Got everyone but Hulk, so I was really lucky.

lucky you, Only 2 SR's I'm after, Hulk and Ares, did not hit either (will be putting up my new trade list shortly). Dragonman is so damn impressive.

The distribution on bricks is damn better than before, I did hit 10 dupes (including 3 statures), But got a damn good range of figs. If you have never bought by a brick, now is the time to try.

People were talking about Hulk at our venue tonight... hardly anybody has pulled one. None of the guys who bought a case have Hulk, we haven't seen him in any sealed games, and only one person I know has him (Mr_Nobody, who got him in the first booster he bought).

My luck at pulling SRs is a bit over 50%, but I don't have a Hulk either. Fortunately I only have one duplicate SR, Quicksilver - who isn't even a unique, so there's always the possibility that I could field two on the same team.

For some reason I have seen hardly any Darkhawks! I'm sure that now I've said it everybody will tell me about the half-dozen Darkhawks they pulled in their cases, but I've only noticed one in the boosters opened at our venue. Whereas other Us like Vision, Iron Widow, Dragon Man... seen a lot of those.

Nobody I know has pulled a hulk either. 5 cases opened at my venue. About 5 citizen v's, 3 ares, 4 hawkeyes, at least a couple of everyone else except spidey who there's only been one of.

Cap and Bucky
Quicksilver
Wasp

Hey guys, I got my Brick at Mindgames in Melb as well (thanks hero temp!). Was really lucky and pulled 4 SR's:
Ares, Hawkeye, Citizen V and Winter Soldier.

All great ones, but my biggest want is Two Gun if anyone has one for trade.

You're right about the distribution, I'm loving this over the old system. Not a lot of other figures I'm still chasing.

Anyone sighted the Legion starters yet? I haven't seen one yet, either here in Ballarat or in Melbourne.

Haven't seen Legion of Super-Heroes starters. I'll post if I spot them anywhere.

The shop I frequent got the request from Crofts for the LOSH starters 2 weeks ago. So I guess they will be turning up this or next week in the Sydney stores.

Cool. I'll contact my store to get them ordered. And the Hellboy set as the other store who screwed us around recently never ordered that either.

At least two stores in Sydney have the Legion of Super Heroes starter set - Tin Soldier in the CBD and Sydney Games Centre in Burwood.

Unlimited hobbies at blacktown HAD legion starters. Unfortunately we bought them all in one weekend. I gave up on Crofty and went the ebay route for hellboy and days of future past.
