Florida G.I. Joe Sightings

[drazen96]

has anyone seen any ghost hawks recently in the stores?

[Outsider]

Ok so I see I missed the wave again :(

[FreddyTV]

Ok so I see I missed the wave again :(

its ok...it should be hitting all stores soon. plus the wave 4 case is going to include all the w3 c1 figures so you should be ok

[Relic Reaper]

Ok so I see I missed the wave again :(

There's a chance there might still be a few at the Hialeah TRU. I Went by Saturday night at around 8-ish and there were still plenty of each. But as another poster noted, they're in GI Joe section of the action figure aisle, NOT in the front display.

[Stoner]

Any word on Alphas?

[Jacklefttown]

Team,

Still looking for that damn Doctor figure! Haven't seen him yet in the Clearwater area. Maybe I'll go over to Tyrone Square's TRU and have a look this weekend!

Jacklefttown

Good luck with that. Seriously, that TRU is like 2 min. from my house and they are usually last to get anything new.

[cerpintaxt]

I picked up the Dragonhawk from the Dadeland Target, they have 1 Dragonhwak left and 2-3 Crimson Hydra. Dadeland TRU and Kendall TRU don't have anything new but they do have wave 2 of the SRO figures (Air & Sea Command, Iron Grenadiers)

[Stoner]

[swafus]

[drazen96]

hey snap welcome to the boards, rumor has it TRU in sanford getting a truck tomorrow but doesnt mean they will get anything unfortunatly, walmarts in the sanford deltona area are jam packed with wave 1 and 2 nothing new poping anywhere

[mdeneg5150]

Hey Footloose, you see anything interesting here lately? nothing at the target on south trail tonight, they are do to stock, their endcap sucks!

[mutt7000]

Nah, It`s the sub,snarler cycle and something else i forget!!
How you been Mutt?


Good man, you? Just chilling, glad I can finally take a break from joes, and I have stuck to my guns ( so far ) and havent bought a single Roc item yet. You guys about ready for another swap meet?

[Outsider]

I havent had time to go to Hialeah to see if they still have WV3 (doubt it) has anyone in SFL seen them pop up elsewhere downhere yet?

[FreddyTV]

[CharIJoe]

[drazen96]

that just sounds all kinds of bad for my wallet haha

[drazen96]

still looking for alphas wave 2 and 2 packs any sightings?

[cerpintaxt]

I havent had time to go to Hialeah to see if they still have WV3 (doubt it) has anyone in SFL seen them pop up elsewhere downhere yet?

A case or two has popped up in the Dadeland and Kendall TRU

[Bilbo5000]

Cerp...Was that report from today?

[Bilbo5000]

Okay, just hit dadeland and they have nothing left...Try the Kendall store

[cerpintaxt]

I'm not hunting today, I have class. I will be hunting tomorrow at the kendall store. I asked someone to check around 1:00-2:00 pm anything from the trucks should be put out by then. You in Kendall Bilbo? That report has been from the last two weeks. Last week I picked up a doctor, RA Ripcord, and Paraviper from the the Kendall TRU

[snap]

thanks for the warm welcome guys. read awhile back that wave 3 hit altamonte and considered making the drive out there, but if memory serves me correctly they only stocked one case.

[Outsider]

Still 0 for me on the Doc wave

[Outsider]

Nothing at all at TRU in international. No restock all week

[Ixz72]

Some Wave 3 in the TRU in Sanford and at the Wal-Mart on 17-92. Was able to score one Pit Commando from both stores and a Reactive Armor Rip-Cord from TRU. Both stores have Helix, Flash, Elite Viper, EEL, and Crimson Viper on the pegs as of 2:00 today.

[Stoner]

Good man, you? Just chilling, glad I can finally take a break from joes, and I have stuck to my guns ( so far ) and havent bought a single Roc item yet. You guys about ready for another swap meet?

Sure am!! I`d be cool to see all you guys again!!! Maybe some of the newbies as well!!!

[FreddyTV]

Stoner: are you familiar with PMs? I've noticed most of your posts are more on a personal note than "sightings" based.

[mutt7000]

Stoner: are you familiar with PMs? I've noticed most of your posts are more on a personal note than "sightings" based.

Are you really going to start this again?

[Vulcan Raven]

Stoner: are you familiar with PMs? I've noticed most of your posts are more on a personal note than "sightings" based.

What the Hell is a sighting? LMAO j/k....Seriously though one of the greatest things about the tank is all the great peeps i have meet through this thread. If my memory serves my correctly as i'm sure it does, we had all decided way back when that the thread had worked really great as a social sort of thread in addition to a sightings thread. So there is no reason to assume that now since the 25th stuff is gone and a new bread has emerged in this thread for the love of ROC that this still can't be a social thread like the one we once all loved and cherished.

On a side note hell yeah i'm ready for another meet, it will be great to see some of you guys again! Stoner i really gotta get myself over there either this weekend or next. A certain seven year old with a Kaliback torso seems to waiting very patiently and i wouldn't wanna disappoint..lol.

[drazen96]

sense no hits on my discussion post anyone happen to have a tactical battle platform and vintage night raven i coudl get length and width off of?

[Vulcan Raven]

sense no hits on my discussion post anyone happen to have a tactical battle platform and vintage night raven i coudl get length and width off of?

I have a couple of Ravens, but i won't be able to get any measurements until tomorrow afternoon sometime. I'll post them or send you a pm ASAP bro, unless someone beats me to it LOL.

[Bilbo5000]

Yeah Cerp, I'm in South Florida...travel a lot, so I'm able
to hit more than a few TRU's...I have my wave 3 set, I'm just looking for a few extras to open...Good hunting guys and gals!

[drazen96]

thanks bud yeah if you can pm me that would be great trying to judge hanging for the dio

[CharIJoe]

Are you really going to start this again?

lol this never ends well.

[drazen96]

charijoe is a lurker like jaws when you thought it was safe to post she pops out of the water

[Shipwreck]

lol drazen. I like Charijoe, even if she's well yeah a lurk artist! it's all good though! Any of you two find anything as of late?

[Stoner]

Stoner: are you familiar with PMs? I've noticed most of your posts are more on a personal note than "sightings" based.

I`m sorry i didn`t know you were a MOD!!! I`ve seen Joes in Florida!! Is that better!

[FreddyTV]

I'm not a mod. You're allowed to say what you want stoner, you know that. My opinion in this matter is not supported by many. Makes you wonder why the real "mods" removed this thread from showing up in the home page though.

[drazen96]

news flash walmart in sanford by towncenter mall has both 12 inch storm shadow and snake eyes with the bikes, about 15 of each 30 bucks a piece. i think online they are 34 or 39? either way new find go go

[Outsider]

I`m sorry i didn`t know you were a MOD!!! I`ve seen Joes in Florida!! Is that better!

I'm not a mod. You're allowed to say what you want stoner, you know that. My opinion in this matter is not supported by many. Makes you wonder why the real "mods" removed this thread from showing up in the home page though.

First of all, I don't want anyone getting pissy. It's a GIJOE forum... I think we have better things to worry about.

Honestly, it IS supposed to be a SIGHTINGS thread... not a 'lets chit chat' thread.

I do find it useless to clog up the thread and check it only to find someone having what really is a personal conversation.

Then again, last time this argument came up, there were more in favor of keeping the chit chat thread going.

So I guess we're in the minority.

[Guneagle]

hey guys im new to the site, been lurkin for a while. Anyone seen any wave 4s in the Sarasota/Bradenton area yet?

[drazen96]

wave 3 still hasnt hit everywhere yet its very slowly trickling havent seen any reports from cali of wave 4 hitting yet so guessing maybe 2-3 weeks before we start seeing wave 4 show up

[mutt7000]

lol this never ends well.

LOL, but this time I'll just leave it at that. Its not really worth getting into anything over this. He's got his right to post his opinion, just like everyone else and I'll respect that. I really dont see where this thread is loaded with personal conversation thats clogging it up but we all see things differently. I also know this is a sightings thread but, I personally dont see the harm in people talking within the thread. We all have this hobby in common and its a good way to communicate with others that share your enjoyment of the hobby. Also its a good way to meet and make new friends. Maybe if MR G would make it to one of the meets he would see that us talkers are not really all that bad. I personally hate the way the pm system is set up, but if I dont have something longwinded or doesnt seem to need to be put in the thread I do use it. Lets just all try and get along and no need to get pissy with each other, we are all here for the same reason.

[drazen96]

yes yes i know sightings thread so <--insert flaming here

anyone had any sightings of an extra cobra moray, or vintage night raven in the central florida area say 150 mile radius from orlando ish, would be a big help dont take my desperateness to mean dig into my wallet too deep =P

[Stoner]

Any sight of the new Alphas yet?

[Snow cat]

[X-factorz]

Anybody find Walmart 2 packs? Or the new Target exclusives??

I ordered mine (Wallmart exclusives) from their site and did the free site to store shipping. Went in tonight and they said they should be there tomorrow or Thurs. so I imagine the stores down here should be getting them soon as well.

[cerpintaxt]

Dadeland TRU has at least 3 cases of the Doctor Wave. Picked up AA Duke and PP Baroness

[Bilbo5000]

As of 4:30 must of the Rex wave is still at the Dadeland store...

[Stoner]

I saw about 3 of the SE's and two SS when I left.

Nice figures but I dont know what to do with all the SE's and SS's that I have already.

The PP Baroness was nice too, I like the face sculpt better.

I'll definitely get another Paraviper to atleast have two.

I just dont want to overspend when I know the WM 2packs have to be here anyday now.

[WildWeaselZ06]

I don't really care about rex. I'm troop building the original para-vipers, really need 3-5 PV officers.

[cerpintaxt]

[Grog Argh]

I think you MIA folk should know what the WM on 87th is ;)

Yes - aka "Hell on Earth," "Dirty Diaper Haven," "Gateway to Hell," "The Pit," "Come Here To Get Swine Flu," etc etc.

That being said, just so I don't get slammed for making non-sighting comments:

Wally-World in Kendall (Miami) has jack do-do. Zilch.

[jbowman]

For the Jacksonville Tankers,, Walmart on Beach and Hodges had 1 case on the island peg. They had 2 pegs worth of the 2packs crammed in with the single carded figures. As stated above there were 4 sets of each, I grabbed 1 set and left the rest.

Score on the 2packs! Thanks MR G

Grog,

Get to the 87th WM aka Pit!

They still have plenty.

I grabbed one of each except for the Gung Ho / Copperhead pack.

The Copperhead is meh and I didn't wanna pay 14 for Resolute GungHo

[Stoner]

As of 11 am today TRU Altamonte has 4 complete sets of the Rex wave!!!

Lucky me, the only Walmart close enough has nothing, and I'm definitely not making the drive to 87th...I'll just wait. The Dadeland TRU still has anywhere between 2-4 of each figures from the Rex wave, so anyone who wants to army build the para-viper should hit that place up.

Dadeland Target had nothing new when I checked yesterday

[Bilbo5000]

" You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy"
Thanks for the 87th WM...

[Guneagle]

Jesus, wave 4 is out now and I still havent even seen wave 3 anywhere except for Agent Helix

[WildWeaselZ06]

I'm sorry, but here in Palm Beach the Target exclusives wave 2, Wal-mart 2-pks, and the Para-viper wave are all just urban legends.

[Torgos-Pizza]

I'm sorry, but here in Palm Beach the Target exclusives wave 2, Wal-mart 2-pks, and the Para-viper wave are all just urban legends.Same here in Ocala. Either the stores have a mountain of older waves or almost empty shelves, still no new stuff. I'm not even going to bother looking this weekend. :(

I might have to go back down there later, let me know if you want me to pick them up for you.

Dont worry about Target Wave 2 - I dont think weve seen them anywhere in FL yet.

WM 2packs are JUST hitting so dont worry. Paraviper wave is starting to spread :)

[Guneagle]

I'm sorry, but here in Palm Beach the Target exclusives wave 2, Wal-mart 2-pks, and the Para-viper wave are all just urban legends.

holy crap, I used to live in Delray. I live in Sarasota now, and oh how I miss it, but its good to know things are just as a bad here as they are there.

[mdeneg5150]

Guneagle, there are Flash's, elite vipers, pit commandos out there... I've seen em in Sarasota

[Vulcan Raven]

So, has anyone here seen a DCUC Red Parademon as of late? Can't seem to locate the two of these bad boys i am looking for. Also if anyone has any unwanted DCUC lmk!!

[Torgos-Pizza]

Found a Para-Viper at the Ocala/Silver Springs WM. There was one more but that was about it figure-wise. I missed the last release of this guy, he rocks!

[Torgos-Pizza]

Ocala here. I found a Para-Viper today at the Silver Springs WM. There was one more I believe, and the two new Storm Shadows. No sign of any other new stuff though. I hit the Ocala and Lady Lake Targets and all three Ocala WretchMarts. :(

Which reminds me, has anyone checked the Dunellon WM? I was last there early this year, I don't think they even carried the 25th Joes. Might be worth a recon run.


Oops, I'm an idiot, I just saw how old this thread was. Doh!

[Animal Mother]

Pines TRU had a couple of Doctor, PP Baroness, Arctic SS, and AS Duke last night. Only one Arctic SE though.

[Bilbo5000]

International TRUs (near Miami airport) has the
Rex wave plus the TRUs three packs...The three packs are not a bad deal...$15 for 3 figures...Speaking of deals, the he'll-mart next door had a few of the two packs. Only pick up the nightcreeper set...For me, the others aren't worth the $14 price...
Good hunting gals and guys!

[Guneagle]

The TRU 3 pack is the one w/ Destro right?

[Bilbo5000]

Yes, you are right...it's very nice!!!

[FreddyTV]

went by the tru on 107th but there was nothing left Bilbo...how many of each did you see?

[Bilbo5000]

There was one cobra and two Joe sets...

[swafus]

WM on Orange Blossom Trail and Piedmont/Wekiva Rd. in Apopka had the 2 packs on Friday. 2 of each minus the monkeywrench/tunnel rat pack i picked up.

[X-factorz]

Just a heads up guys (and gals). If you can't find the Wallmart two packs, you can order them from their web site and do the site to store option for free shipping to your local WM. I picked mine up two days ago and I am happy I ordered mine because they will most likely take a long time before they hit the shelves here as the pegs are full with W1 and W2.

[Bilbo5000]

Just hit a few Targets in Boca and there was nothing new.

[mdeneg5150]

where exactly on the walmart site have you found those figures available? I cannot seem to find them on there at all.

[Torgos-Pizza]

Two-packs on WM.com are out of stock. :(

[Bilbo5000]

Anyone spotting wave 2 Target sets or
the K- mart stuff?

[Outsider]

Anyone spotting wave 2 Target sets or
the K- mart stuff?

Checked Target today & yesterday - no wave 2 in Dadeland or Bird.

[cerpintaxt]

Kendall Walmart has the two packs. They are on the pegs in the GI Joe section. It says that they cost 15.98 but they ring up as 13.96. They had a whole case I took a Gung-Ho and a Shockblast pack

[Ixz72]

I don't know if anybody has posted this yet but the Wave 2 TRU SRO 3 packs are at Marshall's for $10.00. If anybody is troop building?

[drazen96]

they have anything else like 5 packs or dvd sets?

[Ixz72]

they have anything else like 5 packs or dvd sets?

Didn't see any. The TJ Maxx in Lake Mary had the DVD sets about 2 weeks about for $15 I think.

[drazen96]

anyone seen any tiger rats at target lately by strange odd chance?

[FreddyTV]

nothing today...looking for wave 4

[X-factorz]

where exactly on the walmart site have you found those figures available? I cannot seem to find them on there at all.

I couldn't find them either when I tried to search for them but someone posted a thread here on the Tank and I followed the links that they posted. Try doing a search for that thread and maybe you will get lucky.

[Gulfster]

Have not found any of the new wave of vehicles or 2 packs yet in Lakeland area.

[Torgos-Pizza]

Here is the link for the Shockblast/Night Creeper 2-pack on the WalMart site. I don't have the others as this is the only one I am interested in. They have been out of stock all the times I've checked.

Walmart.com: G.I. Joe The Rise of Cobra - Shockblast & Night Creeper: Action Figures (http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=11090850)

Btw, Marion county is still void of any new figures or vehicles.

[WildWeaselZ06]

hey, found the wal-mart 2-packs at the pembroke pines wal-mart, and pembroke pines TRU had the Rex wave.

[Stoner]

nothing today...looking for wave 4

Same here!!!

[drazen96]

everywhere i have been has been p[retty stocked except TRU sorta both wally worlds and targets tons of wave 1 deluxe figs and wave 1, 2 and alpha wave 1

[Stoner]

Anyone seen wave 4 yet?? Or Alpha`s wave 2??

[Gulfster]

Tampa rd walmart has 2packs in. They are not with the joes. They are hanging on a end cap side facing the bikes . Had a good amount of them .

[Guneagle]

I still haven't seen the paraviper wave, let alone wave 4

[Torgos-Pizza]

TRU,Targets, WMs, all barren. Grrrrrrr. :(

[Ixz72]

Nothing in North Orlando (Sanford, Casselberry, Oviedo).

[CharIJoe]

Dear Boys,

We should have a swap meet again soon.


Sincerely,

Charlotte.

[mutt7000]

I just posted something up in the YOJOE reg section about this very thing my dear. I'm thinking end of OCT early NOV. Lmk what everyone thinks.

[03Mach1]

[mdeneg5150]

jack squat here in sarasota.... swap meet sounds cool though!

[WildWeaselZ06]

would like to make the meet, would love to finally meet everybody here. P.S. MUtt, I still have that VAMP and SHARC. It's funny, I used to have to go to Orlando about twice a month at my old job. Worked for a flight school and used to have to grab a Cessna and fly up there when one of our sister school's planes in Kissimmee would break. Have a ton of hours logged between Pompano and Kisimmee.

[drazen96]

as of 9:00 am today k-mart in orange city had 4 of the kmart exclusive packs, orange city target nothing new

Hey S.Fla. Tankers, the K-Mart on SW 8th Street near 127th Avenue has 2 of the exclusive 4-packs left as of 12:30 pm today. (They had 4, but I snagged one for myself and one for a fellow 'Tanker.) Look closeley because they are shelved vertically on their sides, so I almost overlooked them since at first glance they resembled 12" figure boxes and they had some other figure in front of them. Happy hunting!

[Ixz72]

Wal-Mart 2 packs available at the Wal-Mart on Rinehart Road in Sanford.

[Torgos-Pizza]

Exclusives to the north, exclusives to the south and we got nuthin'. Hasbro hates Ocala. :(

My parents are leaving the hotel on sunday.

Thanks in advance!

[drazen96]

the wave 4 figs havent been spotted in florida as of yet that we have seen, most targets have the exclusives in abundance, i haqve an extra doc but not close to miami about 4 hours from there, maybe some of the dade/broward guys have some info

Thanks! I must have bad luck because the only exclusive they have spotted at Target was SS with the motorcycle. Has the SNAKE Armor hit Florida?

[drazen96]

none of the exclusive wave 2 deluxes have been spotted that i know of, up here in central pretty much everything on your list is easy access except the wave 4 and wave 2 deluxe sense they havent hit florida yet

[Gijoekid@hotmail.com]

2-packs and the Para Viper wave at the Walmart on Archer Rd.

Damn, I searched high and low for the two packs. They were in a completely different aisle not even close to the action figures. Glad my collector sense kicked in lol or I might not have seen them. Man I hate Walmart.

[grayman]

Cobra Invasor, I live in Miami and just got back from some toy hunting. I haven't seen anything that is on your list, except for the boxed Target Rhino exclusive of course. I recommend that you check the Target on the corner of North Miami Avenue and Northwest 36 Street. It tends to get things first. Just keep in mind that none of what you are looking for has been seen down here. It will probably be here any day now, but maybe not before Sunday. I will keep an eye for them for you.

[X-factorz]

Florida sucks, it really really sucks...(sing along with me to the beat of the song from Waterboy!)

I am so tired of us getting stuff after everyone else and when we do it is in such limited quantity. I haven't seen any W4 or anything else for that matter.

Thanks a lot, I'll tell my parents to go to that Target. I hope they have time and luck.

If Florida sucks you won't imagine how much Argentina sucks. We have only received about 15 figures (first waves) for US $25, Alpha Vehicles for US $50 and the Night Raven for US $150. We are really screwed.

[drazen96]

ouch, if i was closer to miami i could help saw 2 of the 3, 2 packs this morning and all 4 wave 1 delux figs and rhino vehicle, the thing with 2 packs at walmart alot of peeps report them not even being near the gi joe section some even said not even by toys.

[Torgos-Pizza]

I am so tired of us getting stuff after everyone else and when we do it is in such limited quantity. I haven't seen any W4 or anything else for that matter.I agree. I am located in BFE about 17 miles one way from Ocala which is where two of the WM's and the Target and TRU is so checking a few times a week can drain the gas tank pretty quick. There is a Target in Lady Lake (The Villages, again about 17 miles) but they don't get as many toys since they are in seniorville. My local WM (8 miles) is iffy on Joes, sometimes I luck out there, but they rarely get any kind of exclusives.

The crap part is, the stores here always seem to get the Star Wars exclusives but us Joe guys get screwed. And when we finally do get the stuff the scalpers have already bought it all and have it on Ebay before you even have a chance. :(

[drazen96]

we have quite a bit of hunters over here by dayona/orlando torg, but walmarts site to store might be your ticket. i had all 3 2 packs and now wave 2 alphas site to store to my walmart no hunting required just pick them up when you get the email, doesnt help with target who is slow but walmart has been pretty on spot with getting new stuff online for site to store, thus no shipping charges

[Outsider]

Miami/Broward Team:

Has anyone seen the Kamakura wave yet?

Also, I know its not Joe's but has anyone seen the Marvel Universe Secret Wars Wave 2 comic packs? This is the one with Magneto, Cyclops, Hulk...

[Animal Mother]

Have not seen either, no.

Has anyone in Broward/Dade seen any DC Universe wave 9? I need Green Arrow and both Mantis variants, and would throw in a moc PP Snake Eyes w/black timber for the help.

[Torgos-Pizza]

Still not 1 single DAMN new item at any store here in Ocala. Maybe next month.... Bah humbug!

[Gulfster]

nada in lakeland

[Stoner]

nothing in Orlando/Altamonte area

[Torgos-Pizza]

I think they carry this stuff in a blimp and just drop it off at random locations.

[Stoner]

Fingers crossed that this week will be wave 4 week!!!!!

[Stoner]

Anything out there???

[Bilbo5000]

Nothing since the weekend...

[Stoner]

friday is truck day hoping to get atleast 1 case of wave 4...Heard a rumor that the Hasbro reps should be going around to stores pulling off all the peg warmers to replace with new figs...

[thecalm_7]

Went through Citrus County to all the WalMarts, Hernando to WMs and Targets, Marian, and up to Chiefland and back down to New Port Richey, no new anything, just peg warmers and a helix/elite viper
Still looking for wave 4
vehicles after the dragonhawk/hydra
Target exclusives wave 2
KMart exclusives
TRU exclusives

[Stoner]

Heard someone found wave 4 and 5 in south florida..Can anybody confirm??

[FreddyTV]

I think it was Bilbo...

[Guneagle]

nothing new here for weeks, still the same old wave 1 and 2 crap. The newest thing ive seen here is Flash and thats pretty much it

[Bilbo5000]

Yes, I found wave 4 at TRUs last weekend... Only one set per store

[WildWeaselZ06]

[Torgos-Pizza]

[Torgos-Pizza]

Still nothing in the Ocala area. I mean, we are usually slow to get stuff here so I'm usually patient, but almost a month or more with no new items or exclusives anywhere is ridiculous. Meanwhile there are plenty of Star Wars exclusives and all sorts of new items on the SW shelves. :mad::mad::mad:

[Bilbo5000]

Megacon is always worth the trip...some good deals on Joe stuff last year...FX wasn't too bad either...

[Ixz72]

Megacon is always worth the trip...some good deals on Joe stuff last year...FX wasn't too bad either...

The thing about FX why I skipped it this year is that you pay $10 for parking and $20-25 to get in. Off the bat you are out $35 bucks plus add that to the cost of what you are buying. So it's really not reasonable unless you intend to buy a ton of stuff. I don't think it's worth it.

[Stoner]

Any of you guys going to the meet??

[CharIJoe]

I'm debating going. :)

[Bilbo5000]

Yeah, I agree with you about FX...The show has a few issues...The problem is we get such few shows in Florida...Have any of You ever gone to the Toy soldier show in Palm Beach?

[mutt7000]

I actually really like FX the last few years. There has been a huge decline in vintage joes there, so I was able to focus 95% of my money spent there on artwork, and I have been able to get some great pieces for cheap and alot of great commissions for $5-10 each. But I do agree that the $25 to get in sucks. I get to avoid parking fee's by having my wife drop me off so her and the kids can go to downtown disney while I'm there.

[mdeneg5150]

nothing in sarasota, Walmarts are sad, and target has peg warmers....

[Stoner]

TRU Altamonte got Attack on the PITT set today!! WOO HOO!! Atleast 1 new thing in 2 weeks!!!

[Vulcan Raven]

Any of you guys going to the meet??

You know it brother!!

[FreddyTV]

the WMs in Miami got a new assortment which contains 12 "collection 1" figures in a box & another with 12 "collection 2" figures in another. among the figures i saw Rex, Arctic SE & Arctic SS. swing by if you are still missing any of these figs. no wave 4 though.

[Gulfster]

Still nothing new in Lakeland

[FreddyTV]

Nothing new. Where the he'll is wave 4?

[C.I.A.D.]

Target & Toys'R'Us on 19 in Port Richey...

Zilch, Zero, Nadda. No wave 4, no new deluxes, no exclusives.

[drazen96]

as of yesterday nothing new in deltona/orange city

like others have said where the heck is wave 4??

hey but interesting tid bit of info according to 2 walmart toy dept mamangers the hasbro rep told them they were getting i belive they said 2 end caps and shippers with all multiple price points in the next couple of weeks. this leads me to think possibly new battle stations considering they already have everything else in the stores.

will keep posted as much info as i get miht wanna keep an eye on your local walmart for the battle stations

[Huer-Ta]

Anybody in North Florida, the TRU in Jacksonville (the one in the St. Johns Town Center) is getting wave four now and also has the Attack on the Pit set. They should be getting a truck in tomorrow so they should be freshly stocked.

[FreddyTV]

107th TRU in Miami has that "Attack on the Pit" exclusive, no wave 4 however. If someone down here spots wave 4, please hit me up.

[drazen96]

oh if we thought walmart was jam packed with wave -1 and 2 already orange city just got in 6 shippers that i could see of wave 1 and 2 each shipper i believe is 12-16 figs. call me crazy but if your shelves arent clearing out with those figs why would you bring that many more of the same to your store.

[Bilbo5000]

Nothing down south...No wave 4...

[FreddyTV]

went to a couple of tru and no wave 4

[X-factorz]

Found some wave 4 at Walgreens but no variants so I passed on them. Some jerk off bent up the card of Kamikura at the Walgreens on Tampa Rd by Westchase. TRU in NPR had the new Attack on the Pit set as well. There was one there and I left it about 2 hours ago.

[Vulcan Raven]

Clermont is pretty well stocked on all the ROC stuff, i don't think there is any newer stuff though.

[FreddyTV]

No signs of wave 4 in Miami.

[Torgos-Pizza]

Nothing here, I mean nothing. Transformers and Star Wars exclusives and new waves are out on shelves but GI Joe stuff is MIA.
