I just left a TRU on the North Side of Indianapolis, IN and they literally had 20 Vipers for 6.49. They had just got done stocking I guess because they didn't have enough peg hooks for all of their joes. They had all of wave 7, 8, & 9 on the shelf and all of the wave 1 vehicles, and the latest comic 2 packs. And like I said they had 20 Vipers. That would be a good troop builder for someone.

Yah Vipers warm pegs here in my area. BBTS mark up in stock items all the time and sure enough some poor fella is going to pay that price...

Wal-mart and Toys R Us have Vipers for $6.99 or so. I never thought I'd see the day when there'd be 10 vipers hanging on the pegs with no homes to go to. I hope the same will be true for BATs oneday soon.

There are about 20 Vipers hanging here in the Wal Mart near me. It's sad because i don't need anymore and they are just collecting dust...

I am not to the point of troop building yet, I may get there someday. It is tempting... I am right now just collecting 2 of everything 1 to open and give to my son and one to display on the wall. But it is tempting, there are a lot of Crimson/Trooper 2 packs there as well.

Didn't it just feel "wrong" the first time you spotted all those Vipers but you walked away because you didn't need anymore? It almost felt like turning your back on a lost puppy.

I still need 4, so I'll be glad to give a few of them a good home next paycheck! :)
Still, $12.99? Between this and what they're charging for Black SDCC CC, you gotta wonder if BBTS lost touch with reality.

Wait until you check it out and pay for the Shipping and Handling; you will feel the pain.

Same thing here. Vipers (and all of wave 7 for that matter) have been warming the pegs for about two months now.

Ridiculous. And the fools who support that kind of higway robbery just reenforce the old adage about a fool and their money. I've seen quite a bit of Vipers recently as well. I'd like to buy a few more, but money's tight, and I'm sitting on it for the fateful day I find Snow Serpents and BATs.
"sigh"...

I peeked into the Joe section for the first time in like 5 years in Target the other day and all I saw we're those Hawkins-Hands Vipers. I should have bought them and sold them for insane markup to jerks so I could be BIG AND BAD.

Vipers have been released 2 per case for 2 waves, BATS are one per case so far.

I was kinda shocked to find Vipers rather often when Joe hunting. They seemed to sell well, but then again there never seemed to be a shortage either, if that makes any sense. At least for awhile anyway. The same 2 or 3 have been hanging at the local Wal-Mart for weeks now, no wave 9 in sight....

Newer wave 9 cases have 2 B.A.T.S. and 2 Snow Serpents.

I'm waiting for the BATS and Serpies to end up like the Cobra Vipers.
