I added a few more characters for the Disney Infinity 3.0 Edition including Kylo Ren, Poe, Rey/Finn Playset and Spot from The Good Dinosaur. I also went and cleaned up the rest of the 3.0 Figures information and updated pictures. Sorry to the mods for all of the edits.

I'm not sure as I just noticed when my buddy opened the drawer of new PS4 games, but I believe they had a copy of Disgaea that was in a box instead of just the standard case.  Your local Gamestop can source a game from another store and have it shipped to them in any event.  I've done that several times at my local store when they found collector's editions, Amiibo's, etc. at another location.

Well, called the store a moment ago before I finished this post.  They sold their last one.  But definitely have your local store check inventory.  They can see if that CE is in stock at any location across the US.

I've made use of them tracking stuff down from other stores with varying degrees of success. I'm stopping into my old store tomorrow to pay on some reservations, I'll see if they can track one down possibly. 

Back on topic...I've been cleaning out the basement in anticipation for a future move and I've been finding all kinds of stuff that hasn't been listed to the collection such as Pin Bot CIB, Super Pinball: Behind the Mask CIB, and a ton of manuals for various systems that I need to sort/post.

I'm kicking myself for missing out on that GS exclusive Disgaea release. I have checked around and no store within 100 miles of me has it. Anyone got a store near them that has a spare sitting around?     

That wasn't a GameStop exclusive. It was also on NIS America's online store. That's where I got mine.

Was is the operating word here. I just checked and it's sold out on there as well. 

Lesson learned I suppose. I need to pay more attention to the actual publishers' sites more.

Disney Princess and the Frog

Original: http://vgcollect.com/item/5317
Dupe: http://vgcollect.com/item/62438

This is an interesting one because the Dupe technically has the correct name (that's how it appears on the box) and has a larger image than the original. Perhaps the title and image can be modified on the orignal?

Looks like restocks trickled into both Toys R Us and Best Buy. My cousin was able to land me a Lucario from Toys R Us and then today (Wednesday) he picked me up Marth and Dark Pit from Best Buy. Luckily he was out to lunch with his parents as Best Buy limited people to one character per person. Now if only they would crank out some more Robin and Lucina I would be happy.

Incidentally does anyone need a Wario, Shulk or Sonic?
