I was on the hunt again today & can't for the life of me find any of the Wave 9 figs anywhere. I saw 3-4 full sets of wave 7 & a couple wave 8 figs. But Wave 9 is nonexistant in north Central WV.

Some dirtball got it over on Wal-Mart at Spring Mills. I found your thieving handiwork! No wonder the stores hate GI Joe collectors! People like you give us all a bad name. If you cannot afford to buy the product without being a thief, get a cheaper hobby!

Happy Hunting!

Walmart in Fairmont had a what looks like half of Wave 9, Ninja Ku, no BATs or Serps. They have the 12 inch Storm Shadow, Snake Eyes, and Torpedo.

oh yeah and a shload of Wave 1 Comic Packs (as usual). It'd be nice if they clearanced those mofo's out to make room for the new waves.

i went out and hit 3 walmarts friday night. Hurricane walmart had a revision case and i scored the Tiger Force Flint and Arctic Snake Eyes i'd been looking for. they also had plenty of CP wave 5, DVD packs, and wave 1 vehicles.

Cross Lanes walmart didn't get anything new at all. they had some leftover wave 7 singles, a ton of CP's (minus wave 5), and a bunch of wave 1 vehicles.

Southridge walmart had some leftover wave 7 and 9 (mainly Ninja Ku), CP's wave 5 mostly, and quite a few DVD packs.

Corridor G Toys R Us has two of the CG Five packs, 3 Greenshirt packs, quite a bit of the SRO Cobra Officer packs, several comic packs, DVD packs, and wave 7 and wave 9 singles(no BAT, Snow Serpent, or BBQ). The Wal-Mart had a few wave 7 singles, wave 3 and 4 comic packs, and DVD packs. Target had 4 wave 7 Dukes and 2 HISS drivers, 3 RAM/Flight Pod sets, 3 comic packs(one Falcon/NE pack), and 4 DVD packs. It looked as though a hurricane blew through that Target toy aisle.

Target in Bridgeport had a Conquest...someone already yanked the Rattler. I passed on the Conquest due to the car and van needing tires at the same time...figures...

i got three new vehicle packs at the walmart in south charleston tonight. had to go in there to pick up a new external dvd burner and walked by someone workin' on a buggy that had a box of joe vehicles in it, asked her if i could buy em' and she said if it'd go out, they were mine.

the case included: 1-firebat, 1-awe striker, 1-fang/claw, and 1-hiss tank. no shark.

kinda sucked the price for each vehicle there is now $15.96. anyhow, hadn't seen anyone post seeing these yet, so if you've been waiting be on the lookout.

Man, I figured that you America lovin' WV'ians would be all over GI Joe! 6 pages over a year into this? I am disappointed.

I am in MD and know that someone's buying the Joes in the Eastern Panhandle (yeah, I know not really part of West Virginia) because they are always running low at the WMs.

So this is a shout out to any of you Pseudo West Virginians who live in the Eastern Panhandle. Are you out there? Lets hear from you!
