So, I went to Toys R Us yesterday after work, and they had a ton of Lotso. Man, he smells good, like Frankenberry cereal! However, I've long been under the impression that he is a villain character like Stinky Pete, and since I don't have much space right now, I'm just sticking with the Toy Story gang of friends like Buzz, Woody, Jessie, Rex, and so on... Maybe I'll get Lotso someday. He's definitely cool. But right now I just wanna find a stinkin' Jessie and Bullseye, ha. Nothing else new yet of the collector quality, but they had the big Toy Story display area replacing the Iron Man one already.

Jessie and Bullseye are now listed as "unavailable" on amazon, and the description says "We don't know when or if the item will be in stock" lol. Oh well, if I don't find Jessie soon I may just get her from the Disney website and pay the extra money.
But the thing that makes Woody special, is he'll never give up on you... ever. He'll be there for you, no matter what.

Now I've seen Lotso at Target too (as of Saturday), but still no Collector's Jessie or Bullseye, nor a Harmonica...

The price tag is 50 dollars at Toys. Is it the same at Target? Thanks!

Yeah, trying to remember, I'm pretty sure it was like 49.99, so same thing.

too bad. The Buzz Lightyear at least certainly exhibits functionality and quality worthy of such a price.

As with Lotso..................................................

There are many cool features to Lotso, but there is nothing you can add to Lotso to make it worth $50. Unless of course he walks, can whip out a swiss army knife, and if you play him a song, he'll memorize it and sing it back to you in his voice. ;) Buzz has the awesome pop-out wings while Lotso is still just a stuffed animal. Maybe I just have a mindset of, "It's a fifty dollar TEDDY BEAR!" But, I will wait for the price to go down to about $25-30.

Went to Toys R Us, Target, AND the Disney Store today but no TSC Jessie =( I did see Lotso though. Didn't get him. He does seem expensive for what he is and I have NO emotional attachment to the character, either =/ I'll get him someday probably, but he's not at the top of my list.

I hear the Jessie's out now have a myriad of quality control issues. so if I were you guys I'd wait it out if you can until things get sorted out. they usually do after the first run. but yeah, unless things like sloppy paint app, under stuffed arms, and uneven buttons and stitching doesn't bother you, give it another month.

I too am holding out on Lotso, until the non-talking one is released. They're nearly exactly the same. I actually prefer the non-talking one as his expression seems more relevant to the character.


Also, in other "news" I've created a Hockey Puck Guy replica:

(I've got one spot left if anyone wants in)

I went to Toys R Us this evening, and they had Jessie! I picked one up. Couldn't resist, plus I know I won't have the funds at all soon.

I agree that Lotso seems pretty expensive (Despite not seeing him at any stores I have visited in the past few days). I am not sure if I want Jessie (Which I also have not seen) either.
