Did anyone else go to the store with no intention of buying the game, yet walked out with one. I took my nephew, girlfriend, and her brother to Walmart last night for the sole reason of looking for variants so I could have them before I get the game and not miss out. I wasn't planning on getting the game for about 6 months unless my TRU got the Wii bundle. Ended up buying a Starter and a single. I figured if I didn't get the GITD starter, I'd never get it. Then went on to get granite crusher at Target. Thought I would only spend about 20 at most on a couple figures and ended up spending $110 this weekend. At least I've made good tips this week (Pizza Delivery).

Anyone else have this happen to them?

Happend to me with SSA. Didn't even know what the game was when I entered the store. And here I am $90 later. Not to mention sitting up at night contemplating upgrade paths. Those were dark times. *shivers*

Same thing happened to me with the first game. I was shopping around with my mother for my birthday. Went to 4 different stores, and every time I saw the game I got more and more interested. Now Im here lol smilie

Nearly 5 months since the last post... That's called "Bumping a dead thread". That bothers some people, and pretty sure it's against the rules. Consider this a friendly reminder. smilie

And this happened to me with Giants. Stopped by TRU to look if they had any figures I was interested in and found Giants, hadn't realized we had already passed the release date like 2 days earlier.
