Friday night ToysRus and Walmart stayed open/opened at midnight to sell the new Star Wars toys.  Well, I didn't go until Sat.  I went to ToysRus when it opened.  People were mobbing the place, pushing, shoving, arguing.  What the crap?!  I just wanted a Darth Tater and a peak at the new stuff.  People were very ..um... rude.  What's up with that?

I never understood those kind of people... I didnn't believe it when I heard that people are killed in big sales like Boxing Day sales Undecided

It's merchandise people! Roll Eyes

Hope you got your Darth Tater Wink

I have seen the new Star Wars toys at our local Wal-Mart and the best thing i saw their were the figures. I don't collect Star Wars figures but my niece does, she wants the new Amadalla(note sure I spelled right  her name right  Embarrassed) Darth Vador, R2-D2, C3PO, and Yoda...just to name a few.

I can never figure out the rush to get something that you will eventually be able to get when it becomes less in demand.

I blame the stores for ordering a small amount of merchandise on something they know will be a instant hit with kids and collectors alike  Tongue

I was thinking the same thing.  maybe there are a few short-cased items but all in all, there will be tons hanging around later.  
Luckily, I got my Darth Tater:  Together we will rule the universe as father and spud!  hahaha
Had to get it a Kay Bee though.  I went to ToysRus and decided I'd check out Kay bee and that would be it.  I'd wait a while.  Suprisingly KB had a full stock of everything!
