Yeah, I've seen Quorra and Jarvis too. As for series 3, I've seen the line sell. Not like Marvel or DC figures, but well enough to get a series 3. The problem toy companies don't realize is, they shouldn't expect it to sell if they don't put out good characters. If they toss out the Tron and Black Guard variants, a Castor, and unmasked Quorra for series 3, or even if they make the rumored game line with Anon and etc, they can expect it to sell really well. But if they jsut put out more Rinzlers and Sams, they shouldn't expect to rake in the dough.

The recards were so disappointing... if they had made Series II something like... Quorra, Jarvis, Castor, white-lit Rinzler, and then a variant Black Guard (with new accesories or something) without all the recards, it would have come off so much better. THe public would have been able to tell they were new.on line abortion pill misoprostol dose abortion medical abortion pill online

Speaking of recards, is the only variant the orange Clu? I picked one up yesterday just cause I really love Clu, but he's not a ton different from my S1 Yellow Clu. Are there any other even minor variants in the other recards?
I've got the Jarvis and Quorra characters, they both have their good points. Both are pretty unique designs so that's nice. I definitely wish there was a Castor and another new character in S2, I imagine that's why most stores aren't carrying them. Makes Jarvis and Quorra really tough to find though, I've only seen them twice.where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

I do think Spinmaster needs more new figures in Series 3. But to be fair, I don't think that's necessarily why Series 2 is tough to find. From what I've come to understand from collecting JLU figures in the past, many stores (Target in particular), don't pay any attention to what figures are in each wave when ordering. They simply order the DCPI number for "Tron Core Figure Case", and Spinmaster will give them what's currently available.
The problem is that individual stores aren't getting their products directly from Spinmaster, but from that store's regional distribution center. So when a store sells out and reorders, even if Series 2 is available from Spinmaster, the store has a very good chance of just getting more Series 1 figures if that is what is at the distribution center.
Another problem is that, again with Target at least, the different waves aren't shipped to distribution centers across the country evenly. So some areas have no chance of ever seeing wave 2, because of Target's uneven allocation.
So yeah, more new figures will definitely help with sell-through, but only if the wave ever makes it to stores in the first place.
I just skipped the hassle and ordered my Series 2 stuff online.

What on earth are recards? | Series 1 figures were on cards that said "Series 1."
Some of those same figures were re-issued on "Series 2" cards, hence being "re-carded."

I found a Wal-Mart that had some Series 2 stuff. I bought the Sam and Quorra. The Series 2 Sam has a much better paintjob so I put my Series 1 Sam into the Light Runner. When I get my other Quorra from the Disney Store, I will place her in the Light Runner with Sam. However, looking at the figure I'm going to have to trim her skirt to get her in a sitting position. I also found the Series 2 Diecasts (3-Man Jet, 1 Man-Jet, and Grid Limo). I picked them up as well. My local TRU has a ton of Kevin Flynn Light Cycles, but not much else.

Can you take a picture of the two Sams to show the difference in paint jobs?
I've got a S2 orange Clu that I prefer to my S1 yellow Clu, would like to see if it's worth getting the other Sam. I haven't heard anyone else comment on their differences and I'm not sure that I've seen one in person.order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pill

I'm looking at them right now. I'll try to get pics when I get my camera back from my sister. My series 2 Sam definitely has a more detailed paint job and the blue-white is brighter than the series 1 figure. Maybe I'm wrong or maybe I just bought a crappy series 1 Sam. When I looked at the two, I decided to use the series 2 for display and the other one in the Light Runner. I do see a difference with my two figures. Mostly the paint job.

From what I read, Series 2 has a better paint job

Hey guys. Here are the pictures of the Series 1 & 2 Sams side by side. The last picture shows Series 1 Sam back in the Light Runner with Quorra.

Thanks for the pics tron58fury. Looks like I'll need an S2 Sam as well.
Shame, I think I may have passed up one not knowing there was a difference.

Wait... you actually found a Sam with his hands painted? The one I picked up today was series 2 but didn't have the flesh colored hands, nor have any of the series 2's I've seen online. I guess it could be a running change, and I don't mind either way cause it was easy to paint mine myself, but it's still interesting that Spin Masters would make a change like this after so long.order abortion pill http://unclejohnsprojects.com/template/default.aspx?morning-after-pill-price where to buy abortion pill

Wow, that is strange. Even the Sam on the Series 2 card back has painted flesh hands. May be it's some kind of running change in the line. Even besides the hands, the overall paint job for the Series 2 is much better.abortion pills online abortion questions cytotec abortion

Same here. Even hit all of the K-Marts because they've had Series 1 figures on the pegs since November and none have had flesh painted hands.
