The Ross Store I went to had a load of the Deluxe Figures (Air Assault Gliders/Trouble Bubbles/RAM Cycles and - I think - a twin cannon thing) but absolutely nothing else.

Marshall's had zip.

Toys R Us had nothing new on the Joe or MU front, although they did have a revision wave of the latter including Grey Hulk, Punisher and some other pegwarming crap.

Went to Fayetteville's Pavilion shopping centre. It should be GI Joe hunter heaven, but it's horrible. The stores were poorly stocked and the only thing I found - the GI Joe Attack on the Pit playset - had been ripped open and the figures stolen from it...

I did manage to pick-up the new Marvel Greatest Battles packs though, although I don't recall which Walmart that was at (I went to so many!)

Went to Toys R Us near Gwinnett Place yesterday. TRU Must've found some stuff at the warehouse, as they had a TON of ROC vehicles that had been recently stocked, mostly Dragonhawks and Ice Daggers, at clearance prices. Picked up a Dragonhawk for $15. It's nice, if a little small. At least Wild Bill has a decent sized head!

Iok

I've seen a lot of RoC figures/vehicles at TRU. Maybe they're seeing the Ross sales and have decided to get some of that pie.

46 Zone
05-01-2011, 11:31 PM
That TRU Clearance is still not as good as a sale they had about 2 months ago where the ROC betas were $10. I don't think I can pull the trigger on the Dragoncrap chopper if it goes to that again. It's just not as cool as the Dragonfly. Hopefully the skystriker will be successful, and Hasbro will release more high demand vehicles. I have checked TRU (Smyrna/Marietta) about 3 times this week, and still no Wave 6 figs. Come-on TRU!!!!

Kitchen Viper
05-02-2011, 10:20 AM
Eh, the Dragonhawk's okay. It's nowhere near as cool as the old Dragonfly, true, but I liked it a lot more than I thought I would. The main thing I'm struck by is how tiny it is, especially compared to the POC vehicles that are supposedly in the same price range. the VAMP and HISS are HUGE next to this...

In Oakwood there is a toy store named Billy's Toys that you should check out. they are open Tuesday-Sunday, from 10-7. They have all sorts of toys, from Sectaurs to Star Wars, to Joes (some 25th and lots of vintage figures and vehicles) as well as Marvel Legends, DCUC, vintage He-Man figures and vehicles and various other assorted lines.

The number to the store is: 770-533-9533

the owner, Billy Hollis, is super cool and I hope that any of you that can will swing by the store and support them.

I was at the Marietta WM today (Cobb pkwy near the south loop) and I saw 4 pegs titled GI Joe for $3.75. I asked a stock boy to scan the label and they had none in the store, but have 12 items coming to the store at some point. He said they get a truck everyday so hopefully wave 6 will hit WM pretty soon. The last time this WM had any Joes was before Christmas. Happy Hunting.

This is my car after the Atlanta area Joe meeting last night:

http://i781.photobucket.com/albums/yy93/alcinde4/carwreck.jpg

My first ever new car. My wife and I purchased it in November of last year. Some fucking drunken ass-clown, plows into the back of me on the way home as I was heading down 85 south.

I was in the middle lane minding my own damn business (not swerving, not in the middle of a lane change), and this idiot comes out of nowhere and smashes the shit out of the back of my car. Not only that. This where it gets good. The mother fucker just drives off!! A hit and run.

Long story short, I'm okay (physically anyway, after a trip to my doctor this morning) but now I have to pay this huge deductible to get the repairs done on my car, since I obviously can't file a claim against the dipshit who hit me.

Good times...

Oh yeah. The meet was great as usual. We had a good time last night.

North Acworth WM - doesn't carry Joes anymore, but had new TF deluxes (warpath, thundercracker, wheeljack) - all full price though.

South Acworth WM - remnants of POC wave 6 and CA wave 2

Bells Ferry WM (Woodstock) - remnants of POC wave 6, also of note they had a MU Jim Lee Jean Grey

Big Chicken WM - remnants of POC wave 5 (yes, wave 5) - priced back to $7 - I picked up the only Cobra Trooper they had, there was still a CC and a couple Jungle BATs. Also remnants of CA wave 2.

Now that POC wave 5 has hit the area, I'd appreciate it if someone could stash a General Hawk and another Cobra Trooper for me if you see one in the Ksaw/Acworth area.

Covington Walmart had some Joes yesterday - I managed to snag Blowtorch and the Jungle BAT but they still had a few other figures, including a couple of General Hawks.

Nothing at Walmart in Oakwood and Buford.
Buford TRU does have Cap wave 2 figures minus Red Skull and Crossbones (were already gone when I got there). But I have them already anyway so that is fine.

Nothing at Ross and Marshalls in Flowery Branch and Buford either. So basically, nothing. Yep. Nothing.

Haven't seen crap the past few weeks Joes-wise.

About to quit collecting over this crap. The arctic destro's have rotted on pegs for 7 goddamn months now. 8 if you count spotting them in November.

Gwinnett Place Wal-mart 'had' wave 5. I picked up two Hawks, two Cobra Troopers, and 1 each of Steel Brigade and BAT. Two Blowtorch's and two Cobra Commanders still there. Whoever running the toy department had them way down the isle instead of on the pegs actually marked 'GI Joe'. Idiots.

I moved them to where they belong. When I got there they had 2 CC, 2 Blowtorches, and a Jungle Bat. Now there are 2 CC (pegwarmer IMO), and a Blowtorch.

I'm kind of worry about that wave. They order one or two more times & the pegs will be full with Blowtorch & CC, then we get nothing for a long while. Then again, maybe they won't order until all the Blowtorches & CC's they have now sell. Anyway, nothing new today except for the Mechs at TJ Maxx on Barret Pkwy. I picked up the Joe one & left the Cobra Mech. Have to say I originally got it for the figure, but really dig the Mech now. A couple of Jungle Bats against that thing would make for a great dio.

That Walmart hasn't carried Joes, MU or DC Universe since almost last summer. They've been dead to me. I'm surprised to hear they're carrying MU again, even if it is revision cases.

I just wondered if it was a Tanker.

I hit perimeter for the first time in a long time. Thought I saw a ROC Sharc at ROSS just sitting there until I picked it up to find that the figure was removed. I also found two ROC figures with some random corps or the like inside and a bad patch up job. It's crazy that people are stealing and repacking these things when they're so cheap to acquire at ROSS compared to the regular retailers. Just pisses me off that the employees taking the returns are so lazy they can't look at what's being returned and don't realize that they're not the same or incomplete.

Those have been there for damn near forever. Hell they might have even been repacked at whatever store had them before Ross did.
