I grabbed 16 random bags to squeeze at home and wound up with 10 of them. I could tell the other 6 were dupes, so it's back to TRU to swap them today.

The Walmart near me has had fudge... I am going to have to swing by Target I think.

Telling Millhouse and Ralph apart in the bags are next to impossible for me.

FYI: If you take the UPC to Wally World, they can scan it and tell you what stores have them in stock near by. Or, if they are hoarding them in the back. It's how I got my last batch.

Are these things going to be scarce or can I wait to get them?

Got my first five in the mail today. Looks great.

Ralph's head is pretty much a ball. I found him to be one of the easiest to spot.

Yes. Also, feel for the points of Milhouse's head. The tip of his hair was the giveaway for me.

What's the in-store price on the minifigs at TRU? Online lists them at $3.99 so with the usual markup... $19.99 in store?

$3.99. They've been odd with pricing since the Movie stuff. (Which I think was all SRP).....and by odd I mean SRP on more things. When the new Marvel sets came out a few months back they were regular SRP, but then when I was in the other day they were back to the usual TRU retardo price up bizness. So I wondered if they are starting to do more stuff at SRP right when it's released and then jack them up later, but then I remembered there's literally no rhyme or reason to their Lego pricing structure and gave up.

The molded heads do help in feeling these out, although I didn't pickup on Ralph's marble like noggin'.
I've had a blast in finding bags and tearing through them. Prices here were $3.97 at Wally World.
