I completely agree with this. It's not worth it for me to go to several different stores in order to save a few dollars. If it was more significant, maybe. I got GCU for free when I bought my boyfriend an xbox one so I don't have to use it, but it makes it so I don't have to wait for a sale if I...
All the Kmarts around me are closing so the figures and playsets they do have left are on clearance. Still only $9.50 for the 1.0 figures and $10.50 for the 2.0. I am going to try to hold out until they reduce them more.
Getting a little closer to completing my 2.0 set after a couple trades and a few more packs. I don't plan on buying any more Marvel packs so this is it until November when Originals come out. I will keep it updated as I make more trades. (Updated as of 10/20/14)

The other option for those of you who opened yours is to go buy a new starter set from TRU, with a free figure, and then return that one to Best Buy. At least then you get a free figure. :/
I've never seen it on a different console, but I think the quality is good. The only difference I notice is on different tv's. On my HDTV, it looks great. On a non-HDTV, it's terrible, but I don't think that is the Wii U's fault. It still looks really good on the gamepad.
I found the treasure hunt exciting as well. I was lucky that when it told me to put on my playset piece I refused because I wanted to start with the toybox. Does it start with a Marvel type cut scene if you have the avengers playset piece on?
Out of the two disc packs I bought, I did get a duplicate, but it's a circle disc so I don't mind having 2 of those. I also got a rare, Ghost Rider's Chain Whip. Overall, not bad.
So I just got back from Best Buy. My preorder was in store so keep that in mind. I had no issues except my free figure had to be zeroed out because it wasn't showing up right. I got the wii u starter pack, gotg playset, groot, rocket, capt. America, and drax, plus two disc packs for $125 after GCU.
