You haven't seen the Santa & Snowman blister then, it contains the recently released Santa Special (with open sack, stick & toys) and the shnowman from the boy & snowman special.

Yes i did miss that one on the list . I do not have any and they are not around our area ( hopefully soon , i could use the elf & snowman x10 & the santa's gets chopped up for his parts  >:D )
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

true Martin, but why are (most of) the blisters only available in a few area's.
Only the first 3 are available here and there are definitly no signs of that number increasing this year.
I remain doubtfull. Specially since most of the blisters are only found in large stores.

I'd rather see the Specials stay in cardboard boxes, they are easier to store and pack and recyclable, probably unlike the blister packs.

US distribution seems to be going regional, as somebody above mentioned.

The latest Roman blister I was lucky enough to get from Gepetto but it looks like that blister won't be hitting my area.  The area Targets have stocked their Christmas inventory with only the new pirates and crusaders.  Maybe the Christmas blisters will appear closer to the holiday, but with the nativity scene now featured on Target shelves I'm not certain.  Maybe I'll check out Kmart.

Not like (yawn) I'm compelled to go on a Santa Claus hunt.

Where do you live, Kansas?



Gepetto

:lol: One would think!  Actually, I'm in Southern California.  Also, it's probably good the Roman blisters aren't available near me, because I'd probably want to buy 20 or 40 of them to create a unit or two of German Guards with the legionaries and some auxiliary archers with the centurions.

Well if you feel the need, let me know. Fred Meyer is still getting Romans and I noticed my local Target finally got some Crusaders in, but also some of the Romans! There is hope yet.

Thanks very much for the offer, Gepetto, but I should probably abstain.  :)
