Loretta's Pokemon Toy Blog Newsflash--B&W Booster Clamshell Pack Out!
I'm unsure if anyone has posted this today yet,
all I noticed on your site were card of the day
reviews... so, anyhow, NEWSFLASH otherwise:
Target has a clamshell Black & White Pokemon TCG pack
out for $11.99. It contains "three awesome
booster packs from the new Black & White
expansion, a special sampling pack with an
additional three cards in it, 1 of 3 special
holographic promo cards featuring the new Pokemon
Snivy, Tepig, or Oshawott, and a cool Pokemon
coin." The promo cards are obviously not
the same as the ones in the Spring tins; I
selected the Snivy, as I thought it was the most
interesting. The coin is very sparkly holo,
nice! Hopefully Omahanime will send
detailed scans as I won't be opening mine until
Easter so, sorry, dunno what's in the sampler...
Gosh, I sure hope I get a Minccino!
In other news, Toys 'R' Us continues to receive
Black & White Jakks items. However, not
all TRU's are putting the stuff out yet!
I've seen online comments where people were
dismayed about not finding stuff yet at their
local store--but they may very well have the
stuff in back! One TRU to which I spoke on
the phone indicated they did have the stuff but
were waiting until NEXT week (i.e., around the
time of the April 27 download egg event) to set
up a Pokemon "feature shop." [insert loud
MOAN* *Sound effects do not necessarily
represent the opinion of pojo.com or any of
their affiliates. Once again I tried to
snare a Tepig mini plush and missed--although
they did have the transforming Pokeball to
mid-size starter plush! Just like Dawn vs.
Buneary, I will catch that darn li'l oiled Tepig
sooner or later!] The particular TRU in
question did not specify or know the specific
date they would set out the merch, but it's
frustrating to know it's just out of reach,
especially when other TRU's already have it out
en masse.
Good luck booster hunting; I'm not even sure if
those clamshell packs are street date yet but I
guess since I'm not opening it, I'm cool, right?
LOL.
