BEN 10!!!

So I turned my son into a superhero / sci fi freak. He is five and is torn between wanting to go see the dark knight vs hancock or x-flies.And with the whole sci fi thing, its breaking my pocketbook. I guess from me watching so many xfiles seasons, he is wrapped up onto this Ben 10 thing. All he talks about is aliens and Ben 10. He has even made room on the shelf and exclusively made an x-flies / ben 10 section for the seasons. And oh my gosh, I wish I never brought that darn watch!!! He even sleeps with it!!! It's not even a watch!
So I have started shopping early for xmas as usual. Those Ben 10 toys are always sold out!!!! The brick and motar stores are bare! I got Wildvine, Upchuck and some other one for abou $5.00 each on TRU online. Plus liek 5 others on Amazon (Connonbolt, XLR8, Wildmut, Vilgax, Four Arms, and Ben 10 version 1). Im officially done for the toys! Especially Ben 10. Only way I will get more is if I run into them at target or TRU.What makes me mad is that, the dang aliens aren't even in the newest cartoons, somethign about his watch not usign the original 10 aliens anymore. SO I figure, I will hold out getting the season four or higher dvd's. We dont have cable, and the only way he can watch the newer shows is online, which I will conviently unplug when cartoon network pops up or youtube. This way he has no clue of the new aliens and wont want them for xmas.Christmas budget: $100 toys $100 clothes $100 extra in 529 plan.Anyone else experiencing the BEN 10 craze?
