gotta give props to RaygeOn for hooking me up with a Best of the 80s DVD Battles Set! Thanks Ray! Was cool meeting you and can't thank you enough for hooking me up with this set!

Target in Nisky had mighty muggs, 2 of each. $8.99 each. Was weak and snagged Cobra Commander....sigh. Whats one more Cobra Commander in the house anyway.

01-18-2009, 06:26 PM
hmm, Colonie target must have restocked this morning then. Stopped in last nite (someone called in so I said I would work the overnight) and that wave was picked over. Was kind of hoping to find a Zartan. Wish that Python CG was there yesterday. I did snag Airborne and Tripwire at the Nisky Target last nite, now I have a MASS Capsule for my MASS Device. Airborne is pretty cool though I bought both just for the fact that I haven't seen any new Joes in so long!

I went to a Target in CT. and they are starting to fill up with the Wave 4 reissue cards: Duke,Scarlett,Roadblock,Gung Ho,Destro,Stormshadow instead of restocking with Wave 12 or 13.I'm guessing the Cobra Troop Builder wave will be next.

Target Clifton Park- Grabbed another UBP for $15.74. There is one left. The Bubble is crushed, but everything is there. You will find it in the clearance aisle by Sporting Goods. I did not expect to find any single carded figures...but laying behind the GI Joe vehicles I found a Cobra Diver and that crappy Ninja Viper. Took the diver and left the rest. Also if anyone is looking for Airborne, there are 2 on the pegs.

Yes it is. There is a trooper assortment that is starting to surface with Air Trooper, Red Ninja, Snow Serpent, CG, Viper, Paratrooper and the Red Sigil trooper w/black mask (the last figure in the case escapes me right now). Check on BBTS. They should have that case listed. Also, Bionic Commando has those pics in another thread with pics of the backs of the cards and they are different.

Had the Tiger Rat and PP Conquest in my hands today...just couldn't convince myself to walk to the checkout with them.

its funny, cause I LOVE the reg.Rattler and hate the Tiger force colors; and I like the colors of the P.P,but dont like the Conquest lol
id rather that they released a new vehicle (maybe the DragonFly or the Tomahawk)

TRU in Colonie has the new Cobra and Joe 5 packs. They had about 5 of each there. Have mine coming from Brianstoys.com. Left all there. New chrome faced-Fixed Hands Viper looks very cool. They also had a Blowtorch. No Resloute 5 packs yet though. Nothing of mention at the Target in Colonie or WM on Washington Ave.

how much was Brianstoys charging?

$29.99 each. Which is the same as TRU. They also had a discount code for $15 off a purchase of $75. So I ordered 1 Cobra, 1 Joe and 1 Resolute. With the coupon code The shipping and processing costs were taken care of as well as another dollar or too. The code was "padawan" but it is/was for 6 days only, not sure when it is over. Also, all three were "in-stock" and will ship within 24-48 hrs of the order placement.

Saw the 5 packs at TRU as well. 2 Cobra and 3 Joe packs left. The new viper looks very cool...but I won't spend $30 for him. I'll wait for the Hall of Heros to show.

Latham WM put out Wave 13. Found the Resolute Trooper card, but the Trooper and bubble were missing. Whomever you may be, consider yourself a Jackass!

Ok so I made a mistake I guess I will still be spending money this month after all.I forgot these were coming out.For all you capital region guys since you're the only ones here that post their findings I wanted to give a heads up Walmart should have 5-packs in your area soon too.They were $24.97 each I plan to get a bunch of Resolute packs so if anyone just wants the flying Duke or black Resolute Commander I have to sell extras.

Yeah, don't think I could every bring myself to order from Brian's Toys or ever do business with him, but its a long story for another time. I did sneak over to TRU today and snagged 2 Cobra sets and 1 Joe set as well as another Resolute Cobra Commander I needed for the silver mask. I was weak...been so good for so long though...

Heads up also, the CT GIJOE SHOW is Sunday MARCH 1ST. Just a little over a week away. Hopefully will see some of you guys there this time. I did talk to Kozin (who puts on the shows) and I believe he expanded the hall of the show so its now twice the size it was going to be. I'll probably talk to him in a day or two and double check. Its a cool show, and I don't think I've missed one yet. Going down on Feb 28 and hang out at the hotel...rumors of beer.. :)

This is the first time I ordered from them. Only did because of the discount and the need for these three packs. They were in stock and they arrived today, very fast delivery.

Yeah I picked up 2 Marvel Universe figs from K-Mart wanted more but spent too much already and they were $8.99.I think these will fit well in my Joe squads.I picked up big head Punisher which will be rare and harder to get because he is being replaced from the shipments with a new and fixed Punisher.I also got X-Force Wolverine with his black suit he looks like a Joe member.I also caved in and picked up the 2 new jets from Target I wanted to pick up both Python X-30's but had to leave 1 each behind without enough money to spend.It was a good weekend haul.

yeah, I was thinking they could be a tactical unit of the Crimson Guard asigned to protecting Cobra Commander, kinda like the non suit/tie Secret Service. Been playing around with the CG head on the Red troopers but just not totally sold on it. That and I like the classic Cobra Trooper look of the head/helmet combo. Besides, most of my CG are escorting CC and the Baroness into the Underworld to find gold to fuel Cobra. LIttle wall dio I'm working on. Maybe I'll take a couple pics later.

Well guys it finally happened. Last night I saw the first "repacked" Resolute 5 pack that I have seen at the Target in Latham. I figured that the BAT would be a sure bet for this. So, someone returned this Resolute 5 pack with the Resolute BAT missing and replaced by a regular BAT with green knees and a Legions Cobra Commander head. Nice work scumbag.

Other than that they had about 4 each of the new planes and a few of the troop builder case on the pegs. Also a few each of the new Joe/Cobra 5 packs.

Ya know, I really don't get this. If you don't want the extra figures out of these multi packs, as has been the case with me in the past, you just list the extra figures you don't want on ebay. You usually end up getting what you paid for the set minus the cost of the figure/figures you wanted out of it and it probably takes less time to take a snap shot and toss it on ebay then it does to unpack, then repack the set and drive back to the store. I don't get it. Washington Ave Ext. Walmart has some of the DVD Sets on clearance and some have the whole body parts swap going on.

Really gotta find out who this is. I know walmart used to ban people from their stores for crap of this nature as they saw it as theft, not sure what Target/TRU and such do.

TheCapital District customizer/repacker is getting to be re god damn diculous! lol Im SICK of seeing these things! Walmart needs to put a tag on returned Joes (or anything returned) and if someone bring it to their attention, they can check the computer and see who returned it....Id GLADLY pose for a mug shot when returning something if it helped catch those that are breaking the law....

Scotia Glenville WMT-Nothing but 5packs really
Halfmoon WMT-Resolute 5pks nothing else really
Washington Ave WMT-Resolute Wave singles (minus Duke-yeah!)
Colonie Target-misk remains of newer waves (minus Duke-yeah!)
Nisky target-nuthin new here really
Price Chopper Route 20 in Guilderland had singles from the Resolute wave, but 9.99 for a single carded is madness, I'm sorry.

I did snag an Eel the other day at the Rotterdam Kmart, was Not On File (NOF) so the superviser told the cashier to hit a seris of keys, said "hmmmm, $2.99" so I was extra happy getting an Eel for $2.99. I was getting ready to say something but the supervisor just looked at me and said don't worry about it. Forgot to post it last week. They DID have a regular Wraith and what not from that wave.

so I've got my quota of Resolute Dukes for some projects with todays hunt as well as a Cobra Paratrooper from the Colonie Target (still some left) so I'm pretty happy.

snagged a Resolute 5packs from the Halfmoon Walmart tonight. There is still one left if someone is looking. Also had a Resolute Carded Cobra Commander. I snagged the last carded Resolute Duke. Wierd thing is as I opened my 5pack tonight, had a Viper filecard stuck in there instead of an Officer Filecard, and had an extra Cobra Trooper stand instead of Officer. No big deal but odd.

Nothing new at Scotia/Glenville or Cobleskill Walmart.

No Alpine left...never was a huge Alpine fan and the figure didn't do anything for me so I just tossed them on ebay to get some money back on the money I spent on the sets. I'm sure once the movie figures are out and that whole thing starts to die down a bit Hasbro is going to go back to these molds and continue to use them so we should see them released again. Hoping the use Cobra Commanders helmet again, its not perfect but its as close as the Big H will ever give us.

Was at Fishkill Walmart a few days ago and I found 1 Big Millenium Falcon for $60.I though about picking it up but I didn't since I wasn't into Star Wars but then I changed my mind and thought of using it as a Cobra base but it was gone the next day.Hope it went into a happy home and not a reseller.The couple times I've been to Fishkill at around 10ish pm.There is always this same older guy in a hat that goes through the pallets every night.I asked one of the overnight workers about him and they said he checks the deliveries every night at 10pm.I see him going through Hot Wheels but then I see him go through other toy sections and then eyeball the Joes.I hope he's just a big collector of all toys and not an E-Bay seller

Tonight on my way home I noticed the Scotia Walmart got in pallets of Transformer 2 Movie toys. Obviously not on sale until the 30th ( I want a Ravage :) but I got that tingly feeling like I used to get when I was a kid. Oh, they also had a boat load of Star Wars cases too. Mostly the same waves. Just nothing I'm looking for in the Star Wars stuff right now.

Just a heads up to those looking for Transformers figures, the stores do have 'em.

Just a matter of them officially setting the shelves I geuss.
