Thanx for the tip, got the 3 -2packs...Target had Mutt and get this ....I got a DOC for 4.99 at Target this morning!!! I saw it, went blank for a second, then realized what it was...scanned it at a price checker and it said item not found. So i asked a worker in the toy aisle and he gave me the tag off the shelf , wrote some # on the back and told me to give it to the checkout person!! Some DUMBASS must have returned it for some unknown reason?!?

That's hillarious! Great find!! Target in Colonie had 1 or 2 Firebats and one Ultimate Battle Pack out on an endcap, also a Mutt. Target in Latham had 3 UBPs on an endcap, 1 Firebat and a Sharc. I picked up the Sharc, 1st time I've ever seen it in stores, and makes me up to date with the vehicles now. KMart in Rotterdam Mall had 2 Fang/Claw sets. TRU in Colonie still has a TF Duke.

Also, anyone else notice that TRU dropped the price if single figs to $6.99? Colonie did anyway.

Glad my post helped you out! I only grabbed one comic pack yesterday because I already spent some $$ on the TRU wave 10find. I've been travelling around with one of the Target $4.99 shelf stickers in my pocket. Unfortunately, TRU will not price match. If you happen upon any Wraiths or the new comic packs let me know...as I will do the same!

YO JOE!!

I saw that at East Greenbush too. There were like 5 comic packs, re-packed and returned. Firefly and Storm Shadow with no webgear in a IG Destro pack. Spirit and CC. Destro and Torpedo. Some people are real scumbags.

You're welcome! Yes there was around 11am. He was hanging on the end, first out. Maybe he got bought? Maybe he fell? There were too many figs for the lone peg and he was barely hanging on.

Toys R Us in Poughkeepsie got in a couple cases of wave 10 but looks like someone bought out all the B.A.T.S but left the Paravipers and Bazooka Troopers.There was only 1 Wraith left I wonder if that person got a clear variant.

Wal-Mart in Cheektowaga had about 4 cases worth of Wave 10 and the new DVD packs on the pallets tonight

I grabbed 4 Bazooka troopers, a couple BATS, one Wraith (no variants in the 4 cases) and one of each DVD set. Everything else should be there when they open.

Stopped in Target, Colonie, and wave 10 was on the shelf. I left with Bazooka Trooper, Reg. Wraith, and Para Viper. I was bummed the sale was over...but when the girl checked my out, she adjusted my price to $4.99. She told me a woman got into a fight with her earlier about the price of the Joes, and the manager told her to ring them up at the sale price! Right checkout lane, right time!!

I'm not ready to worry about wave 12 yet, I just got wave 10 and there are comic packs and DVD sets to hunt for.

I'm probably going to pass on all of wave 12 anyway, I'm very unimpressed by that line up.

Well, I said I wasn't going to leave the house until Sunday, but I felt the need to check my local WM and Target today. WM Wash Ave. has all the wave 10 you wan't. No clear wraith. I left all there. They unpacked 3 new cases while I was there. Target had remnants of wave 10 and wave 11. I grabbed an Eel and Airborne. The rest of wave 11 still sat there as of 12:40. Has anyone found wave 12 at retail?

CG23
11-29-2008, 09:11 PM
Anyone still looking to add some BATs go to the Washington Ave WM. They have 6-7. They had so many figs that the 12" pegs were full of them too. Also, in the aisle with the Matchbox cars there were 2 other full pegs. Also, either Target in Latham or Colonie had a Shrac. Unfortunately I don't remember exactly which one-I think Colonie. Raygeon did you have any luck on that?

I was too lazy to check out the Target in Poughkeepsie earlier and I missed out on the wave 11 figs I just found some leftover Pilot Scarlett and some Bazooka Troopers and Paravipers.I want some Eels dammit lol but they did have plenty of Indiana Jones Last Crusade figures I got Dr. Elsa,Col. Vogel and Grail Knight for $5.44 so now I can return the $10 ones back to K-Mart.Walmart Fiskill did have 1 case of wave 10 I was there for Black Friday at 5am and they haven't put anything new afterwards.I found 3 B.A.T.S on a sidecap I hid them in the biycle accessories aisle behind the kneepads for whoever needs them.If no one gets them in a couple days I place them back in the Joe aisle.Kohls did restock on wave 10 and they had a 33% off sale but the line was so long Friday morning and I overheard one of the housewives on line that she was sent out by her husband to pick up some Joes...I felt bad for her

Thats actually Fishkill Walmart not Poughkeepsie I was there tonight and I saw they got in alot of wave 11 in,now I know who took all the paravipers,bazooka troopers and Eels lol.I picked up the IG/Viper packs I'll probably get another one now I can army build IG's without having a million Destros.Looks like wave 13 has been trickling in Walmarts nearby now I got to hunt down Resolute Troopers.For Ironman fans that Walmart had 1 Captain America armor and the Sattelite armor in white,Target in PK had the wave with the Hulkbuster"Heavy Artillery Armor"? and Deep Atmospheric Dive suit,TRU in PK had the Stealth Striker armor

Hey New Yorkers!! Being my neighbor ( I am in Connecticut 40 min outside the city!) do you guys notice what a bunch of little bitches some of these mid west Tankers are? The minute you say something negative or un-christian like they start getting defensive and hurling insults. I notice that New York and Connecticut posts are about sightings and helpinh each other, and in the mid west people have sex with their sisters, and them go out and buy up all the joes and offer them for sale on the tank for 12-15 dollars. Boy, what a bunch of nice guys!!!

Wow, you are an angry panda. I don't usually visit the other sightings threads, but I don't know why they would discuss anything other than where Joes are in a sightings thread.

Found nothing at Latham WM today. I'm not even sure what I'm looking for right now. Is wave 11 widespread now? Has wave 12 been spotted in the Capital District? Are three waves of comic packs all hitting at once?

Got to the Walmart in Middletown 5 minutes too late some other guy beat me to the Best of 80's dvd pack but I snagged the Arise Serpentor pack because it had the fixed Dusty with webgear straps,now I can return by defective Dusty with no straps.Someone else grabbed the Pyramid of Darkness set
http://i186.photobucket.com/albums/x121/sonny_toys/DSC01935.jpg
That store also got in a lot of cases of wave 9 found 4 more BATS they also had wave 7 comics,2 Bats in the Middletown KOHLS also.
Picked up the Ghost Hawk and Sting Raider fresh from a case at Walmart Kingston left behind the Sharc and Firebat it was weird because these wouldn't scan at the register and I almost lost them.

The Ghost Hawk looks kick-ass this is the first Joe vehicle I want to army build,gonna have to look for a fleet of at least 3-4 more
This store also got in a ton of wave 9 there were 5 BATS on the pegs along with wave 9 and new comic packs,Kingston TRU 1 BAT and Paraviper hidden,Kingston Kohls 1 BAT.There was a case of wave 13 but I couldn't get to it because it was on the bottom of the pallet and the whole pallet was wrapped in plastic.All I wanted was more Resolute Troopers.

Queens update -

1) Wave 10 and 11 trickling in - disguised flint, pilot scarlet, TF duke, Mutt & JY, croc master,bazooka trooper spotted at Whitestone and Queens blvd targets.

2) Ultimate battle pack readily available at whitestone target - at least 10-15 on display.

3) TRU on northern blvd w/o much new stuff, though I was able to find scrap iron/wild bill and beachead/mainframe comic packs - grabbed the last ones. Funny thing - the cashier had trouble ringing up the item and said the system was down, so she sold me each for $4.99! I just nodded my head stupidly, since I was so surprised. Should've asked her out on a date while I was at it.

I needed to find better hunting spots since everyone keeps cleaning out the Fishkill area
Walmart Danbury CT.-I found a Ghost Hawk and Sting Raider last night at store closing I didn't pick it up right away came back this morning but I overslept an hour and someone bought the Ghost Hawk :( since I had the need to pick up something I bought another Sting Raider left behind 2 Sharcs and Firebats.They don't scan at the register btw.
Target Bethel CT.-Picked up another Eel this morning there are more wave 11 cases in the back but they wouldn't put them out since the pegs are full.I will be back for those Eels
Target in the Palisades Mall West Nyack-was the worst Target I have seen so far everything was a complete mess and the Joe section was practically empty,the Ultimate Battle Packs were still in the stockroom and not on the salesfloor
4 wave 13 cases!!
at Walmart-Mohegan Lake(a few minutes from the Danbury CT. border)-I got my Resolute Troopers left behind the rest but someone already bought all 4 Blowtorches before I got there,its ok since my case of wave 13 from BBTS arrives tomorrow.Found another B.A.T. hanging by the board games.
TRU Jefferson Valley/Mahopac-1 case of wave 10 .Paraviper and BAT is hiding behind McFarlane figures
Today was a good day gonna relax and watch football now :)

anyone see arise serpentor arise or pyramid of darkness on long island yet?

Certainly not to discourage anyone on the hunt, since I love it myself, but things have been so grim here in Ithaca, NY that I have certainly been turning to the web more and more.

It is therefore, I feel, my duty to mention to the board that hasbrotoyshop.com has a new coupon (HOLIDAY25) out for 25% off everything (!). Also, if you get over $50 in your cart (after coupon) you also get free shipping! A heck of a deal, especially if you are looking for those DVD packs since they have them all in stock (except for 'best of' of course).

Selection of other items is pretty weak - only 'new' product I could find was Snake Eyes/ Hard Master comic pack, which I certainly ordered to go with my DVD Battle packs #3, 4. good Luck!

Apologies if this is old news - I don't keep up with the forum as thoroughly as one might :-)

Also, Latham WM had a Bravo Team figure and some other abomination packed together. I'd love to find this POS!

that is gross, by me there is a serious godzilla repacker at tru. the man replaces the bandai godzilla figures with crappy cheapo dinosaurs and they go right back on the shelves.

Was back at the Latham WM today, and all foil back cards are still there, with the addition of V1 Roadblock. His card is mint. Left all there.

Nothing new at the Glenville walmart.

Is anyone finding the Best of the 80s DVD Battles set at all in the capital district? This is driving me crazy. I feel pretty lucky that I found 2 sets at the walmart near my house, but have not seen them anyplace else.

Have not seen a one around in person. I believe that Dmizrok has seen two of them though at retail here.

glad I didn't make the trip as I read this before I left work. Did hit 4 Walmart stores tonight though

Glenville-nothing new
Halfmoon-Water Moc and that green thing with Lift Ticket(can't remember its name now), Shark, Firebats
Cobleskill-nothing new
Oneonta-just nothing...worst Walmart I have seen. They are in the middle of a reset, but still, has to be the store that GIJOE forgot by the looks of it...just sad

I am so hoping the Best of starts to show up with the massive amounts the others have. This is such a multiple buy for me. I'm a Cobra Commander nut and so need more. I can certainly use the Cobra Troopers too, love the new helmet!

Happy hunting!

Thanks for the info about Halfmoon WM. I scored the Sting Raider, Ghost Hawk, AND the "BEST OF" DVD. It must have been put out this morning. When I got home, the one I ordered from Hasbro was at my door. I now have an extra. $25 to any local Tanker who wants it........

TRU in Danbury got in 1 case of wave 13 this past wed and I took the Resolute Trooper went back today again and they got in another case of wave 13 I got me another Resolute Trooper they had the G.I. Muggs not my thing but if they go on clearance I would get Snake Eyes.I got a $38 Ultimate Battle Pack from the Target there and returned it with my older $72 reciept.I'll probably get a 2nd UBP now.
There is a comic book super hero Sci-Fi show/convention happening this Sun Jan 11 at the Best Western in Poughkeepsie just after the Galleria.The Iron Sheik will be there and that might be the only reason I would check it out lol

TRU is Times Square had millions of wave 2 SRO pack, a million fred/scarred officer comic packs and not a single single!

it seems like Hasbro REALLY (mistakenly) anticipated the SRO selling better than they are; TRUS in Colonie NY has TONS of them...

Why don't they send them somewhere else, all the TRUs are dry but the new yrk city store had hundreds of them.
