Westbury Target has a bunch of RB, SS and SE and one each of Zartan and Duke.
Westbury WM has a Cobra Trooper as well as RB, SS and SE.
Carle Place TRU literally had nothing for Retaliation but did have a couple of 30th Techno Vipers and Hazard Vipers.
Anyone looking for POC Alley Vipers, Price Chopper in CP in the Kmart plaza has 3.

The DG by me has put in an order “twice” for them and for whatever reason they just aren’t getting the order in.
Picked up a Blue CC at the WM, and a tan Joe Trooper at the Target in Saratoga.
Also, picked up a vintage complete Wolverine w/Cover Girl, Ice Viper and WHALE from the Albany ComicCon. The Whale is my new restoration project :D

I would like to find a Dollar General down the street from my house, but unfortunately the closest one to NYC is in Jersey.
Congrats on finding them!
I'm hoping that these will eventually show up at other places like Family Dollar for instance since they are like everywhere over here. That might be my only way of getting them.

I found some great deals there!
I paid way less than eBay, as well as retail prices on everything except for 2 items.
Those 2 items were items which were never sent to major retailers, but ended up in discount stores that are not in our area. They were more expensive than retail, but cheaper than eBay.

Hey cobracobra,
Sorry I didn't see this earlier today or maybe I could have picked you up at a train station in Queens and given you a ride there.
Oh and as far as loose vehicles go let us know what you have and maybe we can make some deals.

You got the variant Red Skull in "comic" colors.
They also made variants in the same color scheme of both of the Hydra guys.
As far as the Crimson Hiss goes I should start going out and looking for one. I hope the Vamp shows up as well along with figures from POC waves 5 & 6.
I wish I could have picked up one of the tan Vamps when they had them at Ross but we don't have any in our area. Oh well.

Was out looking for Transformers today. Stopped at TRU in Wolf Rd- nothing new Joe or Transformers. Clifton Park TRU I was able to snag the last Shockwave and a Prime. They had 2 Prime and 3 Jazz figures left, but they were in a case a kid got from the back for me (I had to point it out on the top of the pallet, it was open and missing one of the Shockwaves.
Those new mini Joe Tanks were at Nisky Target. They had 2.
Nothing new at CP Target.

Scooped up the Ninja Cruiser from the Target in Latham. Picked up a Tread Ripper at the Nisky Target. One still left there as well as a Ninja Cruiser.
Also, at Rite Aid on Route 7, there is a full peg of ROC figures fro $13.99 a piece lol. A Gen. Haw, Crimson Neo Viper and a Pit Commando are the one of note
MrHateAol
07-15-2012, 04:27 PM
There's a Helix and a Covergirl form ROC on the peg at a local Rite-Air for $13.99. While I ascribe to the theory that one can never have enough Helix, that price is just insanity on a stick. It's not like they produced new ones and it cost more....
Also, the Toys R Us near McKinley Mall yesterday had pretty much a full complement of Retal Joes including Red Ninja and Joe Trooper, arked to $7.00. I already have two Red Ninjas so I felt it would be hoardy of me to take him, and despite all the love thrown at the Joe Trooper I think he looks.... unexceptional... at best. I also can't quite bring myself to nab another Snake Eyes or Storm Shadow, especially since neither really says "Ninja" to me, but they were there with plenty of chances to grab. Zartan was also there, but the Retal take on the character is actually far less interesting than a the other uninteresting takes on the character. I just don't care a twig about the character.
Hope that helps....
Oh yeah, they also had MIB figs too in case anyone is so bug-nuts crasy that they actually remember a MIB flick came out this summer.

There aren't any Dollar General stores in New York City or Long Island.
The closest location to Staten Island would be somewhere in New Jersey.
After paying bridge tolls and highway tolls it wouldn't be worth the trip just to check.
It would be cheaper to pay shipping for them if you can find someone to hook you up. That's what I'm trying to do.

I agree..not really anything to post in here for the time being. We can always post other sightings from other lines tho. I collect Marvel universe, Marvel legends, Star Wars, etc. I don't know, just think it would be cool to still have some post's going on in here.
Queensbury WM has 3 of the WM exclusive 6 inch Hawkeye Avengers figs.
13thwarrior
08-29-2012, 10:26 PM
So if everyone is cool with posting about other lines, I collect the occasional Marvel Universe and Avengers figures (I'm a Joe completist but pick up only the few characters I really like from those two lines).
I haven't been hunting much lately, but on Sunday in the Latham WalMart I noticed they had 3 of the Avengers movie version Hawkeye. I'm now convinced some scalper uses that WalMart to return their unsold goods, because they had like 3 or 4 of the purple Ultimate Hawkeye one time months ago, and both of those Hawkeyes are/were hard to find.
On Monday, in Toys R Us in Clifton Park they had the remnants of the latest single and 2-pack Marvel Universe waves. I grabbed a Kraven and left the new Spidey and Hulk. For the two packs I grabbed the last Hulk-first appearance Wolverine. They also had three each of the TRUs exclusive Spidey-Rhino and FF black Spidey-silver Dr. Doom two packs. I grabbed one of each, so as of Monday there were two of each left. They also had a single Iron Man-Mandarin 2 pack.
That's all I've seen of late, but then again I haven't been looking much. At this point I'm just looking forward to the Club Figure Subscription Service figures coming out, since it seems that's the only way to fill my Joe fix. :-)

Got a black AWE Striker and Fangboat for $6.40 each, and the Snake Eyes and Firefly cycles for $5.60 each. Also picked up a Roadblock for $4.
I was also really pleased that the Captain America Kmart exclusive 3-pack (blue Captain Britain, Captain America and Red Guardian) finally went on serious clearance. The set was originally $20, and I was hoping to pick one up for half-price. They were selling for $4!! (Yeah, you read that right.) Still marked at $14.99, but they rang up correctly at check-out.
So a good day of Joe (and Marvel) hunting today.

With the lack of Joes out the last couple years, or really good Joes anyway, I've been picking up Transformers. I too also picked up the 4 TMNT figures. The new ones though, not the classics. They are just too big and I would prefer they were about the size of the modern line. Just wanted the 4. No interest in the rest of the line. They do a Classic Shredder- I'm all over it.
If any of you folks see a Transformers Dreadwing, if you could stash it and send me a PM, I am looking for one. Also looking for the TRU Exclusive Transformers Masterpiece Thundercracker.

Glenville WalMart has the latest Avengers single figure wave! They had 3 Nick Fury's (I bought one, so 2 left) and at least two Chitauri's. They were not on the pegs, though, they were in an Avengers free-standing display near the toy aisles. Never thought I'd find Nick Fury at retail. Oh, there was also 1 Black Widow and 2 Hawkeyes on the pegs.

I haven't seen any Joes other than TRU. Rumor has it Skystrikers are showing up at Marshalls/TJ Maxx but I haven't bothered to stop by any of those to check locally.
Also this weekend is :
The Northeast Toy and Collectible Show returns October 21st!
Packed with GI Joe, Transformers, Star Wars, Masters of the Universe, Superheros, Monsters and more!"
The guy that puts on the show is one of my best friends. Its a good show and a nice drive. Formerly known as the Connecticut GIJoe Show he started expanding it to other include other toys as the show begin to evolve. A lot of Joe dealers would also bring along some Star Wars and Transformers and stuff as well. There are some really good deals to be had at the show. No doubt about it. Rik Alvarez formerly of Hasbro will be there selling Transformers as will other dealers. I've seen G1 all the way up to the modern lines there. I'm going as a dealer and plan on selling some odds and ends of my collection.

Hey people!
I am going on a city trip to New York City (gonna be there for the Thanksgiving parade in november, woohoo!), and aside from all the touristy things to do (like being dragged to a musical on broadway :-(), I am also looking to buy some GI Joe and Star Wars stuff.
Are there any places still stocked with GI Joe Renegades / 30th stuff? Or any Retaliation and SW Vintage Collection? I was planning on visiting the TRU at Times Square; you think would it also be worthwhile to skim the K-Marts, Walgreens, TJ Maxx'es I happen upon? Is Forbidden Planet on Broadway a good place to check out?
Also are there any addresses for vintage ARAH figures and vehicles? I didn't find any vintage toy stores on Google.
Anyways, thanks for reading, sorry for all the questions!
Yo Joe!

Nice I would take a whale fixer upper for ten bucks
Non-Joe related, but picked up a SW Darth Malgus from Kmart in Rotterdam Mall. Think he could be the start of an Overkill custom...

Poughkeepsie Target put out all its old stock pile. Nothing new except those little Mini figures. TRU ...... Same thing. Bunch of old movie vehicles and red Hisstanks. No Kreo either.
I'm afraid they won't get new stuff in because they have so much old stuff. I hate Joe hunting around here. :o{

I've hit up several TRUs, Targets, and Wal-Marts in the Westchester/Putnam/Dutchess County area and I haven't seen any new Retaliation stuff. I've also been to 3 different TJ Maxxes and 3 different Marshalls in the last 2 weeks and only 2 had the Discount/DG repaint Joes. I bought 2 Dukes and a SS at TJM, which was all they they had, then a Cobra Trooper at Marshalls yesterday (the only other figure was one Cobra Commander which I left). I'm sure by next month the stock will be better every where as it gets closer to the movie's release.

Why is it so hard to find new singles? Toysrus has nothing. Target finally updates their aisles but its all wave 1 figures. I did manage to get the only 2 wave 2 3-packs at my local target though. Targets had some pretty bad allocation of their hasbro items the past few years. There were 2 waves of poc/30th that they never stocked, and the only Vintage Star Wars figures I saw all of last year was the Episode 1 assortment that came out in January.

Tues night Fishkill Walmart had Lady Jaye and Flint, which I picked up, but I left the Cyber Ninja, Battle Kata Roadblocks and a Firefly. TRU in Poughkeepsie had one of the ninja vehicles (not the AWE striker) yesterday afternoon. Forgot to report it all

The couple of stock managers from Target I talked to, said they were selling the past stock they pulled off the shelves way back when.....your best chance to find the new waves is if you hunt at a store that has a high turn around of product, i did the call and find out how many figures they had in stock.....I remember reading on here something of the # of figures that came per case. The one store i called had 20 in stock, all wave 1 ( found that out after i drove there ) but I had a # so I called back about a week later and they had 32 thats how i got my wave 3. hang in there to caz i guess a lot of local Walmarts are gearing up for the spring change over in a week or two and i know that the ones in my area definitely DO NOT have left over stock. So id imagine that that what ever they get going forward is the newer waves.

Interesting..... just how much do you say ;)
Picked up AVs at Target in Glenville and Kmart Central Ave. Picked up 2 more Coltons and a Lady Jaye as well. Glenville Target has all of Wave 3 minus Colton, Jaye and AV. Kmart on Central Ave has all but the AV...
TRU on Wolf Rd had the Dragonfly and Cutter Ship Kreo Joes... No other sets or the singles

Toys R Us in Clifton Park had a bunch of the Kreo sets out and it looks like they were stacking the shelves with more. Didn't see any singles but they may have been unpacking.
The ship, dragonfly, and law and order outpost were the ones already on the shelves.

Found the remnants of wave 2 at the Glenville WalMart. Picked up the new Firefly and Flint. They still had a Kata Roadblock on the pegs (no sign of the new SE or SS). Also grabbed the new Flint cycle. They had a bunch more of those. They also had 2 of the new Joe 3-packs and 1 of the new Cobra 3-packs.

Found the remnants of wave 3 at Niskayuna Target. Someone before me must have grabbed Joe Colton, Flint, and Lady Jay. I picked up the 3 cobra troopers -- Alley Viper, Cyber Viper, and Dark Ninja. SE, SS, Firefly and Kata Roadblock were all still there.
I also checked the Niskayuna Marshalls. No sign of the wave 2 DG Joes. Anyone seen any more of those figures Upstate after the one or two CG23 found??

Multiple Wave 2.5 and wave 2 cases spotted over the last few days at several wegmans that didnt stop Joes previously and at several walmarts that have finished their resets.
Anyone else notice that the Walmarts are now missing MU pegs for single figs?

Picked up a KREO battle platform and one of each of blind Kreos figs. Added 2 extra CGs, and 1 extra Alley Viper, Cobra Trooper and Ninja Viper and a reg Retal. Alley Viper at TRU on Wolf Rd. Piked up the Kreo Ninja Battle set at TRU Clifton Park.

Thats interesting. I was there yesterday also around 4 and found Colton, dark ninja, cyber, nd snake eyes, rb, alley viper and ss. No lady jaye firefly or flint. Maybe i didnt see them since that store is most unorganized tru in ny. Target had a alley viper and cyber ninja, ss and rb also

Checked Target in Amherst this morning and they had some more of the wave 2 Dojo Attack three-packs (or whatever they're called...) and passed on them. I don't like buying one character you like and two you don't want or care for...
I DID pick up a couple of packs of the Micro Force and won't make THAT mistake again.

Funny thing is, I originally didn't have the Lady Jaye, but on a whim reached up above the top shelf and found her hiding up there.

I was at the TRU today. All I saw was wave 1 Snake Eyes. I haven't even bothered to try Target. They're over saturated with wave 1 crap.

Exactly, not to mention it looks like someone bought a ton of marvel universe gladiators and returned them there. So lame.
Picked up a DG Duke and Cobra Trooper at the Amsterdam DG. all others still there
