As I was walking to the toy isle, I noticed an open case of G.I. Joe figures on a pallet, literally on the way to the aisle. It felt like the toy gods knew I was coming! I looked in the box, and I was actually shocked to pull a Red Ninja out. It was a complete case of Wave 2! I think it broke down like 3 Cobra Commanders, 1 Red Ninja, 2 Gung Hos. I grabbed one of each and kept going to the toy aisle.
There were no other Joe figures there, but someone was there already looking and his eyes quickly noticed what I was holding and he said "WHERE DID YOU GET THOSE?!" I said "Follow me!" and I led him to the case. By then another collector showed up and between the three of us we cleaned out the single case.
Shortly after I walked by the electronics section and they had another open case behind the counter. There were only two Roadblocks in it. I politely asked the employee if that was all they had, and it was. He told me he sold the rest of the "other one" they had. He didn't recall what the other figure was.
I bought both Roadblocks (one for me and one for a friend) and then I left.
The second Target had zilch.
So I definitely was NOT expecting Wave 2, but here we are. I wish this entire situation was better handled, but I'm glad today wasn't a loss! I'm sorry for everyone who came up fruitless today. I will say, the pegs were all listed with labels, including a spot for Baroness. So hopefully that means we can expect more stock.
Please tell me this was at the Northgate Target around 9:30 AM! If so, I saw you guys getting into the case while I was standing at the top of the escalator! I was kicking myself for not getting there a few minutes earlier/noticing the pallet. I already have wave 2 on order from Dorkside so I wouldn't have bought them anyway ;D
