Has anyone seen the Battle damaged Batman/Azrael (red colored) DCU 2 pack at TRU? I've been waiting forever for it. No sign at all in my area. The Blue Kyle/Yellow Hal set is in the same assortment (I think). I haven't seen that one either.

Nothing but Shazam here. But I've read that these have hit in places like Oklahoma.

Never saw these in the stores; got them from eBay for $9.99 each figure, shipping included.

I've seen Batman for that, but were you able to get Azrael for $9.99?
Did the lantern figures come with lanterns? I don't even know if the box set has them or not so some input from anyone who knows would be appreciated.

OK. I did some poking around and answered by own question about the lanterns. Yes, they have them, but not all China sellers have them.
Soooo, how much are the 2 packs normally at TRU? It looks like Azrael and Yellow Hal might be hard to get for $9.99 at this time but possible for just a couple of bucks more. That would be worth it if the 2 packs are $30 or $40 at TRU in real life.

I think TRU sells them in the range of $29.99-$32.99 depending on the store.
I was just there this morning but my eyes glaze over when I see all the Shazam packs sitting on the shelf.

Beach, as you discovered, yes the Lanterns came with lanterns and all were 9.99. What I discovered is that you have to keep a close watch. I don't want to mention individual sellers here but the one I got these from has a rotating supply and if you keep a close check, they put on 12 or 24 hour sales also, which is how I got these figures. I was able to work a deal out and got the Lanterns as a set; it helps to ask questions occasionally. I've pretty much quit dealing with Matty due to the choice, quality and shipping costs of the products when dealing directly with them. I did purchase the Black Mask because I wanted the "extras" that came with him but I made my own vine for Ivy and I can do without tiny Elasti-Girl, Dollman and shrunken Tin when I was able to get the companion figures for $17.51, 9.99 and 12.99 respectively. The last 2 pack I bought from TRU was the Mad Love set for 32.99 but found it loose and complete on eBay (not from an overseas seller) and got them for less than $15, so I returned the one I purchased.

Thanks for the input. I started watching a few sellers and have noticed a pattern. I just got Batman and Azrael over the weekend. I'm trying to decide if I want the two lantern figures. Who knows if I would ever find the Batman set in the stores.

I've heard these are hitting Ross, Marshalls and TJ Maxx from local guys over on the Fwoosh board. Haven't seen them myself, but I can swallow $17 better than TRU double the price.
