EM

[vega-1]

I got the wave 5 figures... sweet wave.. the city strike SE is AWESOME... I do not want the rest although i will say they are very nice figures... anyone want to buy them.
Vega bro i am sorry i didnt log on and see that you wanted me to pick up two packs.. when i go back up i will get them for you. It amazed me how many they had up there.

Dont worry bro Tuga got them for me already but if you see the White coat Rex can you pick one up for me? Thanks man.....

[vega-1]

Any of you guys on Facebook?

[reissue]

Nice to see all the south jersy heads on here!
Nothing new to report, just wanted to get up on here.
ISH!

[vega-1]

Thankz Man!

[vega-1]

Hey Reissue! What part of Jersey are you from?

[Rising Phoenix2]

long time since i been in here x.x
well went to my old haunts tonight and picked up an interesting haul...

target rte 1=nothing to write home about
tru/walmart rte 1= same as target....

FYE in quakerbridge= some RoC. >.> found 2 snake with black timbers. couple 25th's and.... hall of heroes? since when did FYE carry them...but snag away

smart toys in quaker= has tons of the 25th comic 2 packs

[vega-1]

I went to Eatontown, Ocean Township, Neptune, Freehold, Brick, Howell, Toms River as well and found the same boring 2 waves. Then after paying $15. in gas I decided to go home and buy Rex in a White coat for $6.99 + $10.00 SH. I know pretty pricey for SH but everyone else had this figure for twenty and up with the same SH cost

[Moses]

I was happy to see a Walmart restock the exclusive 2 packs when I was out last night. I stopped at Marshall's and found a ASA DVD set and Best of the 80's - they are out there now!

TRU this morning had The Doctor wave (black coat) and the new exclusive SS and Bench Press - picked up one of each.

Got wave 5 (minus Storm Shadow - don't need another) from HTS.

I will have to ask for them to get the exclsuive 4 pack from the back next time I am at Target - still not on the shelves, though the system does say they are in the back.

[vega-1]

I got the 4 pack from Target this morning and it looks sweet. I also got the White coat D. Rex in the mail today so Im a happy camper now that I'm all caught up. Just waiting on this new wave to hit the shelves

[Drill]

City Strike Snake Eyes is in the Hammilton Mal in the brand new toy store Toy....something next to the Hall of Heroes comic book store. It is $9.99.

The store has some cool things, including BTAS Batman, Joker, and Two Face and some knock offs and Desert Vipers.

[Rising Phoenix2]

rt 1 walmart had many of the 2packs
target rt1 had the duke & SE vs mars troopers

[Moses]

Two Walmarts last night had remnants of the Doctor wave - paravipers, the doctor (black), Arctic SS (masked) and PP Baroness. Good to see something newer hitting shelves at one of the main retailers. They also had a good amount of 2 packs - a lot of Gung Ho/Copperhead.

I wont be by that way until Saturday. Hope they will still be there

[Blackdragon]

Nothing new on joes but Tru in Secaucus had the Tru Exclusive reissues of Insecticons and Perceptor. I bought one set and left a set on the shelf.

[Moses]

Not too exciting a sighting, but Joes are $5 at Walmart in North Brunswick. I can't resist buying some at that price, although they have way more Destros and Baroness than I can buy. Maybe they will actually restock with a newer wave.

Target East Brunswick still hasn't put out the rescue 4 pack yet. I guess they are going to wait until it goes on clearance. Maybe then they will bring out the deluxe figure assortment wave 2.

Anyone see the new 5 packs at TRU yet? I hear they are starting to hit in other states (as well as the Target deluxe figures)

[vega-1]

Toy R us in Freehold still has neither 5 pk or SS and the BP but the Walmart in Freehold has a boat load of 2 packs waves 1, 2, 3, 4 are all sitting on pegs and are over loaded like someone open the box and said Dzmn! I messed up! Where am I going to put all of these??? :D

[Moses]

Looks like buying a few Joes over at Walmart gave them some space to restock. I found CS SE tonight along with the wave 5 storm shadow. They also had most of wave 4 and some doctor wave. I was hoping to find desert vipers, but picked up Night Adder and Red Fang. I hope they aren't hiding the exclusives somewhere else in the store - I don't see any of the stupid 12" motorcycle exclusives anywhere in the area.

[Tuga Viper]

Where at Moses?


EM

[Moses]

I was at North Brunswick last night.

Tonight I went to my out of the way Walmart and found the Walmart Exclusive playsets. I passed by several CS SE's, though I was tempted. Check your walmart's; they are hitting. And if not, I might pick up an extra or two if anyone needs help...

[Moses]

Found the new TRU 5 packs at TRU in Iselin/Woodbridge today. Not too bad a deal - 5 figures for $20, even though they are repaints.

[worldgorger]

I went on a serious hunt today (north jersey). heres what i found:

Toys R Us Secaucus: new TRU exclusive 5 packs. carded figures: waves 1-3

Walmart Secaucus: nothing new. carded figures: waves 1-3. no outposts :(

Marshalls Secacus: dvd battle sets with alpine and chrome CC.

Target Bergen Mall: nothing new. carded figures: waves 1-3.

Toys R Us Paramus Rt4: TRU exclusive Bench Press and Snow Serpent. New TRU exclusive 5 packs.

Target Hackensack: nothing new. carded figures: waves 1-3

Walmart Saddle Brook: nothing new. carded figures: waves 1-3. no outposts :(

Kmart Lodi: carded figures: waves 1-3.


Overall, Id say I struck out. The only things I picked up were the TRU benchpress and snow serpent. I also picked up that shirt at target, along with some shirts and wallet from Hot Topic.

[xcobrasoldierx]

anyone seen dcclassics wave 10

[Moses]

I stopped at 3 Walmarts in central NJ today, nothing of interest. I got lucky the other day with the battle stations - I was hoping to find another heatseek and surveillance port

I also stopped at a TRU express right by my house. One peg of Joes, and it was all Snow Serpents and Bench Press along with W1 vehicles.

[mman322]

I've been looking everywhere for the Walmart Battle Stations, but with no luck.

I think they're probably being kept in the back until the other merchandise moves, no tags out for the stations yet, anyway.

Would anybody mind posting the DCPI number?

I'm in the Bridgewater/Watchung area.

[vega-1]

I also picked up that shirt at target, along with some shirts and wallet from Hot Topic.

Joe related Shirts and wallet? I would love a Cobra wallet

[Niksal]

ok just stopped at the tomsriver tru they got bench press and snow serpent! and the 5 packs but i passed because i hate duke sooooo much!

[Moses]

Stopped by another 3 Walmarts today and no battle stations. I did notice a dragonhawk and ice dagger at 2 of them, which are somewhat new additions to their overloaded shelf of gunships and SUVs.

[vega-1]

ok just stopped at the tomsriver tru they got bench press and snow serpent! and the 5 packs but i passed because i hate duke sooooo much!

ARGH! I was just there Friday and they had nothing but the same stuff....

[Moses]

Saw Wave 2 Alpha vehicles at Walmart North Brunswick tonight. Picked up the Skysweeper, left the others (since I have them already). They seem up on putting out Joes as they get them, so hopefully they will have the exclusives soon. Then again, they never restocked the 2 packs like other stores did.

[Shadow Guard]

O.K. I found:
DC Classics (ALL) of wave 10 Mount Olive Wal-mart.
2 of each of the Wal-Mart Battle Backs (Hawk, Grand Slam Ect.) at Newton Wal-mart.
Air Raid and Lamprey in the repaint vehicles in Wilkes-Barre PA TRU.
And I saw A Butt-load (Yes, this is a true value of measurement) of The TRU 5 packs and 3packs at Rockaway TRU.

[Shadow Guard]

I also found 2 City Strike Snake Eyes, 1 City Strike Duke, 1 City Strike Storm Shadow, 2 Jungle Ripcords, 1 Night Adder, and 1 Red Fang at Ledgewood Wal-mart 4 Snow Serpents, and 2 Bench Press (Anyone notice his name is the same as Rock and Roll's?) at Rockaway TRU.

[worldgorger]

found the outposts at the Walmart in Riverdale. sweet!

[Niksal]

tuesday morn in nj has the 25th fig but there on cand cards picked some up in brick got all the weather dom cryst...

[Niksal]

Yo shadow did you happen to see a batman?

[Unclassified]

nik our walmart sucks lol, i just got back from there, i picked up the mantis an the cartoon dvd.. i was hoping to go blow money on the exclusives lol, did brick walmart have any?

[Shadow Guard]

yeah, Mt. Olive has one left as of last night.

[Zefram]

If anyone out there is on the fence about the Cobra Gunship, I recommend scooping it up now. The Walmart in Audoban had only a couple left and flooded the shelf with Ice Daggers and Dragonhawks. Hopefully the W2 Alpha vehicles will sneak in as well.

[Moses]

Walmarts in my area (New Brunswick) seem to have received a shipment of W2 Alpha and W2 Bravo vehicles recently. I have seen this at several Walmarts in my area. No shortage of Gunships though, and usually a few SUVs as well. Also seems the W2 Bravo case ships a Dragonhawk and Ice Dagger - only place I have seen a Crimson Hydra recently was Kmart last night.

[Blackdragon]

Found Walmart Exclusive Playsets at Kearny and Secaucus Walmarts. They only had Heetseekers and L.A.W.s. I bought the heetseekers. Someone else bought up all the Survellance Ports and Outpost Defenders. Still can't find MP Skywarp. Walmart in Saddle Brook had nothing new.

[jcast]

Found Walmart Exclusive Playsets at Nutley and Secaucus Walmarts. They only had Heetseekers and L.A.W.s. I bought the heetseekers. Someone else bought up all the Survellance Ports and Outpost Defenders. Still can't find MP Skywarp. Walmart in Saddle Brook had nothing new.

There's a Wal Mart in Nutley now?

[Moses]

Got a second full set of Walmart exclusives at Walmart in Manville. They still had at least one of each as of about 8 PM tonight, and multiples of the Joe sets. Surprised I haven't seen signs of them at other Walmarts yet.

Now if I could only find the Wave 2 Target deluxe vehicles....

[Blackdragon]

There's a Wal Mart in Nutley now?

God dammit it was Kearny not Nutley. Christ I'm useless. Let me correct that.

[Zefram]

W2 Alpha vehicles and TRU 5-packs have started trickling in at south Jersey.

[samjjones]

Found a Heat Seeker and L.A.W. set at Linden Wal-Mart today.

[Tuga Viper]

anything left sam?


EM

[Blackdragon]

Jesus christ who keeps buying up all the Outpost Defenders and Surveillance posts

[Hellion42]

W2 Alpha vehicles and TRU 5-packs have started trickling in at south Jersey.

Anything on Snow Serpent/Bench Press? I haven't been hunting in forever because I only need those two and the Strato-Viper/jet pack Target exclusive at the moment.

[samjjones]

anything left sam?


EM

Those were the only two I saw at Linden WM yesterday.

[Shadow Guard]

Has anyone seen the new target vehicles? Which ones are they?

[worldgorger]

Found the wave 2 Target exclusives at the Target at the Bergen Mall. They had 1 full set. I picked up the Serpent Armor and the Air Viper. But I passed on the Wet Suit and Storm Shadow.

I was so excited i visited some other Targets, but found nothing.

So they are finally finding their way into Jersey. It's about time!

I expect wet suit and storm shadow will be like Grand Slam in wave 1. But when they start hitting steadily it shouldn't be tough to find them - snakes will move though.

Damn you hit all the stores I hit. You better leave me some serpent armor next time!:D

[worldgorger]

Damn you hit all the stores I hit. You better leave me some serpent armor next time!:D

They only had 1 of each set :(

I would've probably gotten the Storm Shadow too, but i thought the motorcycle was cheap looking. But, I do admit that Storm Shadow's paintjob is pretty sweet.

[Moses]

Walmart North Brunswick just got a second set of 2 pack exclusives. The other Walmarts got their second case in at least a month ago, so it may be another month before I see the Battle Stations there.

[Tuga Viper]

TRU Hazlet has the troop builder packs, Snow Serpents and Bench Press.

TRU Elizabeth had nothing new as of yesterday

Walmart Linden had all the playsets. Got myself the Outpost Defender.

Target Middletown has nothing new.


EM

[Blackdragon]

Target in Clifton had the Past And Present A.T.A.V. Rockslide set. They had a bunch of them but they weren't with the other Roc toys but above another toy aisle. I don't like that Roc Rockslide so I left them.

[Niksal]

[Skull]

I live in nyc what do u need and where is house of hoops

[Moses]

Found w5 at KMart today, including the desert viper I have been looking for. Picked them all up - can't beat the 2 for 1 sale. Came to about $4 each with tax.

[samjjones]

Kmart on Route 35 in Avenel had a Gen Hawk and Helix yesterday. Joe pegs were empty otherwise.

[jcast]

So...I saw a City strike Snake Eyes at Kearny Walmart. It looks like they got the revision case with parts of Wave 3,4, and 5. I hit Belleville and Keany Kmart, but nothing special.

I'm kind of kicking myself; as I drove across Rt 80 from PA to Jersey for Thanksgiving and passed MU Wave 5's Warpath at Kmart in Dubois, PA, but didn't pick it up becuase there weren't any other figs I wanted. Of course, the sale is over and no Warparth anywhere around. I did get some other figs at one Kmart, but I was hoping to get Warpath and Bullseye during the Kmart sale.

Quick Question. I'm staying with family in Newark until Monday. It's a 5-hour drive on Monday back to Pa and, once I'm there, its 50 miles to the nearest Target. While I'm here, I would like to get some of the Target wave 2 exclusives. Has anyone seen them in Northern NJ? So far I've hit the Targets in Jersey City and Clifton, but no luck.

[Blackdragon]

Worldgorger said he picked wave 2 up at Target at the Bergen Mall in Paramus and thats the only time I've heard of them sighted in North Jersey. When something new pops up around here the only way to get it is if u hit the store at 8 in the morning before everyone else. At least thats the only way I've gotten anything new. Theres a lot of collectors in this area.

Crap.

Why is Target Wave 2 so elusive? Could they at least put them on the site?

[worldgorger]

Today, I found the wave 2 exclusives at Target at the Clifton Commons. It looks like they opened two cases. But, both the Serpent Armors were taken already.

I went on a mini cruise and found the following:

Walmart Secaucus - Snake Eyes Storm Shadow Playset, alpha vehicles wave 2
Target Clifton - remnants of wave 2 exclusives, snowjob past/present
Toys R Us Paramus Rt4 - Benchpress, Snow Serpent, and remnants of wave 3 carded figures (Arctic Snake Eyes, Paratrooper)
Target Bergen Mall - They just opened 4 or so cases of the wave 1 exclusives. Ugh.
Target Hackensack - nothing new. (The worst Target in the area if you ask me)
Kmart Lodi - alpha vehicles wave 2

Clifton Commons is the Target on Rt 3 correct? What time were you in Clifton? I was there this afternoon.

[worldgorger]

Clifton Commons is the Target on Rt 3 correct? What time were you in Clifton? I was there this afternoon.

I was there around 1ish. Maybe 2. And yes, the Target on Rt3 is the Clifton Commons.

I got real excited to see the wave 2. But as I thumbed through, was extremely disappointed to see no Serpent Armors.

I was there around three and saw nothing. Oh well. I'll hit a few more before I leave. I only want two SNAKE (Serpent) Armors.

[Moses]

Found Target Deluxe figures wave 2 in South Brunswick today. Left a Wetsuit and Storm Shadow, and picked up 2 SNAKEs, 2 jet packs and a wetsuit.

Also found a Best of 80's DVD set at Marshall's in North Brunswick

[vega-1]

Hey guys been a while since I last posted but I finally got a chance to go out today and look for stuff today and got some really things.

Wet Suit w/ Dragon fish
Storm Shadow w/ Cycle
Air Viper w/ Rocket pk
Scrap Iron & Viper w/ Heat seek Missiles
TRU 5 PK / Mole Pod
Storm Shadow ~ Arctic Threat
Snake Eyes ~ City Strike
Charbroil
I went to 4 different Targets and no Snake Armors!!!! Really pissed off about that.
I have a question to ask you guys about the Night Adder figure. One of our fellow friends from here "TUGA VIPER" told me that their is another version of the figure and I was wondering if any of you here have heard about this and if I can get a confirmation on this as well before I loose my mind looking for this figure. Is their a Blue Tattoo version and a Black Tattoo version of this figure???

[Skull]

Hey vega
As another Vega been meaning to say whats up to you.
I got lucky and scored an extra snake armor. if you come across
a Kamakura or outpost defender ill trade ya.
Where in Jersey are you from. i live in NYC but mostly hit up jersey

[jcast]

I finally found a "SNAKE" at the Target in Linden on Sat. I only want two, so I'm pleased.

[samjjones]

Found Target Deluxe figures wave 2 in South Brunswick today. Left a Wetsuit and Storm Shadow, and picked up 2 SNAKEs, 2 jet packs and a wetsuit.



There was one lone Storm Shadow left as of today.

[Moses]

There was one lone Storm Shadow left as of today.

Yeah, I saw him last night when I stopped by as well. I think Storm Shadow will be the new Grandslam of wave 2. But the SNAKEs may be tougher to find than eel sets over time. Hopefully we will all get our fill....

[Blackdragon]

Found 2 snake armors and 2 Air VIpers w/ rocket packs today. I didn't see any Storm Shadow with cycles though. Really odd.

[Unclassified]

i'm driving to work tomorrow, so my ass is stopping at this wal-mart out in the farmlands, last time i went there, it was like prestine joe stuff, like no one goes there. so i may be lucky enough to nail some things finally. my new local wal-mart is wack as fuck, the old tr one is better and they suck. the new one started out nice, but then bam nuttin' since.. wack-mart..

[lucard123]

Hey Vega
Yes there is a black tat and blue tat version of night adder. I like the black tats better.
If you need me to post pics I can at some point.
Lucard
Still havent found any snake armors... what are you missing Vega?

[vega-1]

wtf!

[vega-1]

Hey vega
As another Vega been meaning to say whats up to you.

a Kamakura or outpost defender ill trade ya.
Where in Jersey are you from. i live in NYC but mostly hit up jersey

I live in Jackson, N.J. 8 mins away from Great Adventure. Thanks for the offer but I found 6 Snake Armors today and I had to get them all cause Im not an Army Builder but I want to customise them in different colors. I haven't found Kamakura either but if I do I'll pick an extra one for ya. I do have all 4 playsets when my Walmart by me first got them but I haven't yet seen them again. I would like to get another one or two of them myself but like I said I if I see another one I'll get it and if you already found it. It's no big deal cause I might keep it for myself.

Hey Lu! Thankz for the verification now I got to kill myself looking for a blue tattoo Night Adder..... :D I'm pretty much caught up I just haven't found Kamakura yet but I'll find him soon it's been a good month around here. Everyone of the stores by me have been stocking up on Joe's. I just have to beat all the other Joe collectors to get them in order for me to have them.

[samjjones]

Found a full set of Target 2-packs. I picked up the SNAKE and jetpack, and left Wetsuit and Storm Shadow.

[L.T. SEAL]

Target in jersey city wave 2 found no snake armor. Dam I just want 1
if any one can help lmk. I got cash.

[worldgorger]

i stopped by at my usual targets today (bergen mall, hackensack, clifton commons). each one opened anywhere between 3-6 cases of the wave 2 exclusives. but not a single store had serpent armors. it appeared that each store was pillaged right before i got there. which means someone else has my same run, and that same somebody else made a killing on serpent armors today.

my question is though: when the hell are we gonna see wave 4 and wave 5 of the carded figures? i havent seen a single one.

[Moses]

I have not noticed any new ROC Joes at any of the Targets I go to. They may be replenishing, but it is more of the same. Looks like Wednesday night a lot of Targets in my area put out SNAKE waves. Too bad I took that night off from hunting! I got in time yesterday for sloppy seconds - definitely no SNAKEs left. Hopefully sometime soon the hoarders will get their fill and Targets will still have some left. Target nearest me (Milltown) is absolutely horrible at restocking. They had the Rescue 4 packs sitting in back for weeks after the other stores had them out. I even asked them for one since the tag was on the shelf, they got me one and still was a couple weeks before they put them on the shelf. And now they sit there. I know they have SNAKEs in the back, I will be waiting for them.

[Rising Phoenix2]

just got back from a toy run

target lawrenceville: small ninja cycles
wallie world lawernceville: ninja battle playsets and large ninja cycles

[Blackdragon]

Sorry buddy that was me. I picked up 2 serpent armors and 2 Storm shadow w/ cycles from Hackensack. By the time i hit Bergen mall someone else got the serpent armors. I don't want to cheat other collectors out of them but god damn do I want to army build them.:D

[Moses]

Found my 2 SNAKEs at Target Milltown today, and Desert Viper at Walmart North Brunswick. The hunt is over for me for now. I might pick up the SE/SS Walmart pack, or another battle pack or two if I ever see them again

[L.T. SEAL]

Target in edgewater has 4 snake hade 6 snake armor down to 4 as I just grabed 2 more as of 430pm

[Blackdragon]

my question is though: when the hell are we gonna see wave 4 and wave 5 of the carded figures? i havent seen a single one.

I picked up an Arctic Threat Storm Shadow and Desert Viper at the secaucus Walmart. Left the Jungle Strike Ripcord. He looks like he's high. lol

[Justanoldfan]

The new super Wal-Mart at 820 Cooper St has a ton of ROC Joes.

I'm up in basking ridge on a work trip and went a little east to a walmart. The employees were incredibly unhelpful when I asked someone to get something down from a top shelf. The three girls there were talking to each other asking if I knew which one I wanted. As if I could see from 3 feet down! Anyways, they're obviously not wanting to help and I said "look, I don't really need you if you'll let me use that ladder there" and they said "oh, we're not allowed to do that" which led me to say, "that's the ONLY reason I'd ask you for help". What A holes. Anyways, I've got two roadblock battlestations! They had plenty of all four of the sets left.

[Shadow Guard]

Unfortunately, the lack of good customer service around the holidays is on the rise this year. I have been out hunting in 3 different states, and if you ask someone for help, they stare at you like you farted at the dinner table. Most people say,..."well, it's all in how you ask." B.S. I say to that. I am polite whenI ask for assistance. Henry Ford said" It is not the employer who pays the worker's wage, it's the customer..on that note, anyone have an extra Kamakura?

TRU in Secaucus has many Red Fang Ninjas, Night Adders, Black Coat Rex, Charbroils.

I picked up the only 2 Arctic Threat Storm Shadows.

No CS Snake Eyes. No Kamakuras. And no tmnt vipers.

[Blackdragon]

I was there today, I picked up 2 night adders and 2 charbroils. No red fang ninjas were around. Found CS Snake-eyes and red fang ninja at TRU in Paramus. Also picked up 2 more serpent armors at Bergen Mall Target.

http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i151/crazyk25/IMGP3398.jpg

Has anyone seen anymore Walmart Exclusive Playsets. I only saw them once at three walmarts. These are what i was looking for today and came up empty.

[Shadow Guard]

Which ones do you need I saw two of each at a walmart an hour ago.

Correction HIDDEN at a wal-mart an hour ago.

Walmart Linden had the playsets a couple days back.

Man I guess North Jersey Walmarts just slack off with ordering exclusives. I'm hoping they get a huge restock at some point. They didn't hold back on ordering the MP Skywarp, they had a whole shelf of them.

[Shadow Guard]

Moving Sucks... I had to pack up the ARMY so to speak. I hope they drop the price on the MP Skywarp.

Central Jersey is pretty slack too. I frequent 5 Walmarts, and I have only seen signs of these at 1 so far.

Maybe a little odd - I came across PP SE w/ black Timber last night at Walmart Manville. I usually see the grey Timber since they first came out.

Also saw SNAKEs at Target Bridgewater.

[Unclassified]

i stopped in the target accross from the cherry hill mall yesterday after work. i got a few snakes and rocket packs, there were a set each when i left if anyones interested.

every damn walmart i go to don't have crap. i'm not to familiar with cherry hill region other than 70, and i been taking 38 to work cause it leads to my job site. so i don't know of any walmarts around there, but i found 2 targets, and i wish walmarts got their stock of exclusives in a abundance like target does. i had no problem getting the rocket pack and snake armor..

along my travels in the past week, i equiped a few para vipers and pit commandos, i grabbed 2 jungle rip cords and 2 desert viper or whatever for customs.

[Moses]

Except for the stupid Snake Eyes/Storm Shadow 12" motorcycle sets, the Joe Walmart exclusives seem to be undersupplied. I see Transformer and Star Wars exclusives in ample supplies. Maybe it's because of all the Alpha/Bravo vehicles sitting on the shelves they don't want to put more stuff out. They probably don't understand that the battle stations would actually sell.

[Rising Phoenix2]

tru in lawrenceville finally got past wave 2

snagged
2 city strike SE's
adder with black tats
artic threat SS

had tons of charbroil/rex/artic SS
still had snow serpents/artic SE and red fang

be warned... its packed in there for the last night of the 2 for 10 for joes

[Moses]

Saw 2 SNAKEs at Target South Brunswick Target. I must have my fill of them - I took one in hand but put it down. They will probably fill the shelves now.

[Moses]

East Windsor Walmart has the Battle Stations. Also Pit is being clearanced for $50 at KMart. I actually picked one up at that price

[Blackdragon]

Secaucus Walmart had a ton of new Marvel Universe figures. Picked up:

Warpath, Jean Grey, Sunfire, Vision

Saddle Brook Walmart had Battle Stations. Picked them up minus the LAW. They also had some shippers in the aisle filled with City Strike Snake Eyes, Red Fang ninjas, Night Adders, Charbroils, and Doctors. No Kamakuras. I guess he only comes in cases rather than shippers.

[samjjones]

No Battle Stations at Linden WM. Still missing the Outpost Defender. I was able to pick up a Jungle Ripcord, Desert Viper, and Accelerator Duke. Lots of City Strike Dukes and Snake Eyes there, too.

[Unclassified]

man walmarts really getting me pissed.. why haven't they recieved these yet wtf..

I can't find them either...and I have 4 Walmarts in close range. And a 5th not too far away...

How is it with 5 Walmarts I have yet to see 1 piece of merchandise.

[Blackdragon]

I've seen Star Wars Exclusives and Transformer Exclusives in abundance at Walmart but when it comes to Joes they get only a few. They restocked heavy on the Ninja battle set but not on the battle stations. Damn them to hell.

[jcast]

I'm back in NJ for a month. Decided to hit TRU and found the TRU on 440 in Jersey City has 28 pegs full of figures. I'm not making this up, that's how much I counted. Lots of Snow Serpents, a few CS Snake Eyes, Pit Commandos, AT Storm Shadows and others. Thing is I haven't seen a Desert Viper anywhere in PA or NJ. With that much stuff on the shelves, I guess it'll be a long time before I do.

Dude! That's the last figure I'm looking for beside the blue tattoo Night Adder and I haven't found them yet but check Walgreens, CVS and Rite Aid you might get lucky in one of them stores but the price is $11.78 with tax included. Good Luck!

[worldgorger]

ive read it here before, but always dismissed it. it wasnt til my buddy called me from Walgreens. it is true! i found kamkuras and nano vipers at multiple Walgreens. each Walgreen also had all of wave 5, white coat rex's, and unmasked arctic assaualt storm shadows.

too bad they are 11bucks a pop!

even though it killed me to do it, i still picked up a kamakura, nano viper, and an unmasked arctic assault storm shadow.

[Blackdragon]

Hey which walgreens had those figures around here? I'd like to pick up a white coat rex and kamakura.

[worldgorger]

i stopped in the walgreens at lodi, belleville, carlstadt and teaneck.

the teaneck one had nothing. they are going out of business.

but the other 3 had some sweet stuff. i picked up my loots at lodi and belleville. i bet they are sitting on pegs at most of the walgreens in the area...

Hey don't let nobody know I told you this but go and buy some figures at Walmart for 5 bucks and then go back to Walgreens and return the figures that you just bought from Walmart back at Walgreens for your money back. Now you bought the figures for 5 bucks instead of $11.78. Be sure to bring the receipt from the G.I.Joe purchases at Walgreens or they wont exchange it back for you.

[Niksal]

vega let me know if you see them thanks!

[Moses]

Did a little crawl out to a Walmart that actually stocks stuff. Got 2x shockblast/Nightcreeper packs for $7 each, 3 Surveillance ports at $7.50 each (no other exclusive battle stations left) and a Turbo Tank for $50.

[Unclassified]

mine still don't have them exclusives.

[vega-1]

vega let me know if you see them thanks!

I've been looking but nothing plus the store that did have them had them there for months now that I go looking to get it. It not there anymore. Go figure?

[Shadow Guard]

I saw the entire DC wave 11 at the wal-mart on 23 near Butler.

that's a good idea vega, but only if walgreens had something i wanted. i have no interest in that green viper, or the blue tat night adder. i checked ebay to see if they even move, and if it would even be worth paying 12 bucks for one. but they don't even sell on there. although the night adder is cool but needs a new head. i actually might get a few adders now that i think about it, i can switch the heads with desert vipers..

my local wally world hasn't had them since november

Found the rip-cord vehicles at TRU East Brunswick this morning. Originally was planning on skipping them, but wound up picking them both up. Not quite as cool as the old Evil Kenival stuff I had when I was a kid, and the vehicles themselves look like Joe Knock-off quality. Still, I am in a Joe withdrawal since I haven't seen new stuff in a while and got them.

Hey Mo! How are the figures that come with it? are cheesy or are they like the regular figs.?

[Moses]

Hey Mo! How are the figures that come with it? are cheesy or are they like the regular figs.?

They are regular figures - Viper is an elite viper without any accessories. I haven't compared the paint colors, I am sure it is slightly different.

Snake Eyes looks like the ROC commando body with the paris pursuit head. A decent combo, I like that head a lot better than the Wave 1 ROC head with lips.

The vehicles are a different story. They remind me of the vehicles they make for those Joe knockoffs at Target. Bland detailing. And they actually go faster/further if you push them rather than use the rip cord. I was hoping for a minute to relive my youth and set up jumps and stunts, but they lose steam too quick.

[vega-1]

LOL! Well I just came back from round one and found a very intresting figure that I didn't think I had and I was right when I got home. I found the Arctic Assault Storm Shadow with the Paris Pursuit Storm Shadow head. Which I think is a lot better looking that way.

That is a chase variant figure - it shipped with the White Dr Rex w/ the Kamakura wave. I have one from when I ordered the white Dr Rex from HTS a few months back and saw one at CVS last night.

[Hellion42]

Hey guys, I know I'm behind the curve on this one, haven't done any hunting in months, but I still haven't picked up a TRU Snow Serpent. I hit Deptford and Cherry Hill last week, cupboards were bare (though I did snag a Bench Press). Did I miss the boat on this one or was my timing just off?

They are standard TRU Exclusives - tons of both at my local TRU (East Brunswick). So more than likely once your TRU restocks you can load up if you want.

[Hellion42]

Freehold TRU is also loaded with them.

I stopped at Cherry Hill last night and they still haven't restocked. About the only thing they have I'm interested in is like 4 Crimson Hydras that I'm hoping get clearanced... I just want the figure.

[Shadow Guard]

I scored a Nano Viper and a White coat Rex at cvs. My Good friend also scored me a Nano Viper and the Storm Shadow Variant.

[Cold Slither]

Hey guys, I'm looking for a clearance Star Wars AT-TE. If anyone spots one while their hunting I'd appreciate a heads up.
Thanks.

[vega-1]

For some odd reason this wave can only be found in drug stores. They are a pain in the @$$ 2 get but they are the last wave. I'm just glad I'm finished with my single figures and my store exclusives. I just need a couple more of the bigger vehicles and I'm done with ROC line. To many recolor crap to get in this line reminds me of the 93 line when every freaking figure was recolored.

[vega-1]

I spoke to a friend of mind who is a Joe collector and works at the TRU store in Freehold. He said nobody is getting nothing until the current stock is nearly finished. Plus they are doing their end of the year inventory check and wont be finish with it until February.

That is pretty much what I expected. I have seen what looks like a new shipment of W2 vehicles at a Walmart, but nothing 'new'. Until the cluttered shelf space clears out since they shrunk Joe sections, we probably won't see anything. Hopefully someone will buy all those Destros and Baronesses

Since wave 4 never seemed to make it out to mainstream stores, I wonder if there is a huge load of W4 cases that are going to show at Marshall's sometime in the future? I doubt the main vendors will want them.

Yeah, I just recently started checking, but it's been the same half dozen figures on the pegs at both Cherry Hill and Deptford TRUs for the past few weeks. Makes me wonder what the odds are of either store re-stocking the Snow Serpents. I'll have to make a point of checking the store(s) by my gf's place out in Hatboro... though truth be told I have other things on my mind while I'm there.

[lucard123]

january 31 there is a toyfare in marlton?? i saw the post the other day and cant find it. Anyone know the details?
double tree i think.

[Moses]

I stopped at a Marshall's tonight and saw the old ARAH stuff, but no 25th/Resolute packs outside of the first DVD wave 1 sets.

But my TRU exclusive Sting Raider came today! Interesting color scheme - I still like the classic one better. Also looks like my POC Snow Job and Desert Zartan from China are waiting for me at the post office. It's good to have some new stuff...

[Cold Slither]

Yessir!!! I'll be there bud!

[Moses]

Hit another Marshall's and 3 TJ Maxx. Picked up a couple W2 SRO packs at one TJ. Only other Joe stuff was a boatload of the ARAH figures. If they had accessories or cost a buck, I would consider buying some but not worth $4 each. Maybe in another week or so we will see good stuff come in - I want a Cobra 5 pack.

TRU restocked with more of the same old stuff - no new exclusives (doc/shipwreck) yet. I did get my POC Snowjob and Zartan today - loaded with accessories, this series shows a lot of promise too bad we have to wait so long for these to get into retail. Supposedly from now til fall we will only get store exclusives. Maybe we will see some good stuff at Toyfair.

Jackpot. FWIW, the Horsham TRU kicks ass. Everything stocked, everything neat, and the store is HUEG.

[Skull]

So I went on my usual Tuesday Run (which means if your looking for something hit me up on a monday)

I picked up a 4 pack on clearance in the target in edgewater there was 1 left this morning.

No one told me there was a Walmart next to the BJ's off of tonnelle ave. They had nothing for me but a bunch of city strike dukes and snake-eyes as well as jungle ripcord. they also had alot of star wars comic packs i've never seen in stores.

I skipped the target on tonnelle and went to the toysrus in secaucus

It was funny when i first went in there was a destro in front of the shipwreck and i thought of course i am gonna have to hunt down 1 of them but then i moved the destro and saw a row of them.
I picked up 1 each of the figures. I am trying to keep my spending to a limit. although up close the sting raider looks close and i am sure i will obsess over not getting it.

Happy hunting all

[Blackdragon]

Your kidding me!!! Secaucus TRU never has anything when I go there.

[Skull]

Then get your butt over there for some exclusive goodness

[worldgorger]

thanks to the sweet tip by Skull...

I just got back from TRU in secaucus. Picked up 2 shipwrecks, a doc, and a sting raider. There was most definitely fewer of everything than in Skull's pic when i got there. And that was only 3 hrs after the time of the pic.

[Moses]

TRU East Brunswick has the exclusives as well. I picked up a Shippy, Doc and Sting Raider.

[Blackdragon]

I too hit up Secaucus thanks to Skull. There was Three docs, 2 shipwrecks and 4 mocassins when i got there. I picked up 2 docs and shipwreck. I have enough mocassins but it was tempting.

[Skull]

glad u guys were able to score. im fighting the urge on the mocassin myself. I can picture it full of noks

[Moses]

Hit up some Marshall's tonight and got a few Viper/Grenadier packs, a couple assorted other comic packs and the Cobra 5 pack. Saw plenty of Vamps, Firebats, RAM/bubble and Sharcs but have enough of them already.

Anyone see single figures? I was at some TJ Maxx's the other night and they still only had the old ARAH style stuff.

I realize now I do still like this stuff a lot better than ROC, although some of the ROC stuff has a certain charm (and is made a little better). It is kinda nice to be out hunting again

[Hellion42]

If any of you guys don't want the Swamp-Viper or whatever it is that comes with the new Moccasin, I'm interested if the price is right.

[vega-1]

WOW! I haven't seen them around here but Tuga viper picked up an extra set for me. I'll be up your way this week to pick up my goodies.

[vega-1]

Have any of you guys seen the Outpost Defender with Roadblock and Tripwire I can't find it anywhere and even E Bay? I'm going to the Toy show on Sunday in Doubletree I hope I can find it there but if any of you guys see it please let me know... Thanks

[vega-1]

I've looked everywhere and I can't find it and that's really pissing me off cause it's the only one I need to complete this wave. Even at the toy show in Double tree had nothing.......

[Moses]

Stopped at Shopper's World in East Brunswick and found a Cobra 5 pack for $13 and 3 Resolute Troopers for $6 each. Not much of a bargain on the troopers, but I had to get them. They also had 6 Resolute 5 packs for $13 each, some Wave 13 singles at $6 each and wave 1 vehicles at $15.

Still nothing at TJ Maxx's

[vega-1]

Is the like a flea market kinda store?

[Moses]

Shopper's World is a close-out store, sort of like a Marshalls but more ghetto. I only know of the one but it does look like a chain with a few other stores in Northern Jersey and other states.

Of course it never ends. Remember when 25th first hit at $3.99.
I will keep my eyes peeled as well for the Desert Vipers,(I found my 3 at Wal-mart incidently) I still need one more Nano-viper as well.

[Jeremysrockpages]

[Moses]

Two marshalls in my area have signs of 25th Wave 10 - saw regular wraith, TF Duke and 2xarctic SE at Marshall's North Brunswick and Arctic SE, Mutt/Junkyard and bazooka trooper at Marshall's Bridgewater. Picked up the Mutt and bazooka trooper. Nothing else of note.

Did find Comic War Machine in the Iron Man series tonight.

[Niksal]

found a varent storm shadow(unmasked) and a Kamakura and walgreens today i picked them up cost me 20 bucks.... so if you want them pm guys

[Moses]

Grabbed a couple more now and then Target sets for 6.24 each. The Rhino was still $24.98, I might get another if they make it to 75% off.

Apparently TRU has a 2/10.99 sale on Iron Man 2 figures.

I have seen rip cord vehicles at Target, Walmart and TRU today. Nice to see something new on the shelves. Too bad it's them. I guess the next Joe stuff to come out will be the Target deluxe figures.

[Moses]

Stopped by TRU tonight on my way home from work and came across the old Night Watch and Red Ninja 5 packs. I had to pick up a set of each, I miss the good old stuff.

ok guys.....going on a toy run tue....whats everyone lookin for....c+s or we could meet up. Toms river has absolutely nothing so im going south. Any suggestions on what stores to hit?

[worldgorger]

Found the TRU Exclusive He-man vs Superman and Skeletor vs Lex Luthor at TRU in Secaucus on Rt 3. They had 3 sets of each when i got there at 5pm. I got one of each...

[Moses]

I did a lot of Joe hunting this week. Marshall's restocked and TJ Maxx finally got stock in. I picked up 11 BATs so far at various stores, want to find one more. Also TJ Maxx seems to have the Resolute comic packs. Not too exciting after we got another Shockblast and Tunnel Rat at Walmart, but the Storm Shadow has some interest. Marshall's restocked the same Wave 7 comic packs - WB/SI, HM/SE, DF/BH, DS/RR,GH/CC, Viper/IG. I picked up a couple more IG/Viper packs. I saw at least a dozen Wraiths but no variants. They might not be shipping anymore. No big loss, I would pick one up if I saw it but won't go out of my way.

Bigger news I went to Ross in Princeton and scored 2 defense and 1 attack on Cobra Island sets. I only saw 2 of each so there was an attack set left. The TJ Maxx next door had scant offerings.

It's nice to have some stuff to hunt for again, but I think I am pretty much done for now. It was nice to not spend as much money...

[Moses]

where was the ninja 5 pack and were there any more?? I am still looking for 1 of those but all i see are the crimson 5 packs and sometimes the firefly 5 pack

Still looking for the ninja 5 pack? TRU near me restocked and I picked up an extra with your name on it if interested

[Moses]

Hey Steel - I found the old TRU ninja 5 packs (and night watch), but still do not have the Walmart SE/SS pack with the temple and weapons. Surprisingly no Walmarts in my area ever seemed to get it and I hunt pretty fiercely.

Picked up a Rhino for $12.50, and 3 more BATs from TJ Maxx in East Windsor. Also Walmart in East Windsor had the exclusive SW comic packs, I picked up the Storm Commando comic pack.

Hey guys haven't been here in like a month. Glad to be back. So whats the scoop with these ninja five pks? Are they old or new?

Welcome back Vega

Old, the original TRU 5 pack exclusives along with Night Watch. Not too exciting except with nothing new on the near horizon it is nice to see something different.

[vega-1]

Thanks Mo

moses, any luck out in hamilton at the ross stores?

[Moses]

moses, any luck out in hamilton at the ross stores?

I didn't make it down to Hamilton, so there may still be 7 packs on the shelves there. I think I may have gotten enough for myself - between the 2 I got at Ross, others I ordered from BBTS a while back and loose figures I ordered from China before the 7 packs were released.

[Moses]

Made the run to Ross in Hamilton today. I figured I was too late for 7 packs, but wanted to see if there was any SW stuff. Got a Dewback. Stopped by a couple Targets and TJ Maxx's. Nothing.

[Shadow Guard]

Oh wow, I actually still need one of the ninja 5 packs. Where have you seen them?

[Moses]

TRU in East Brunswick - Want me to pick one up? I think they still have a couple left

[Moses]

Stopped at Walmart East Windsor and broke my 'No Joe' month when I picked up the Gung Ho/Copperhead pack. I was hoping to see the Monkeywrench/Tunnel Rat that was there a few weeks back. They also had a Sigma Six Spirit which I almost picked up, but couldn't get myself to grab an 8" figure.

[Unclassified]

any luck at big lots guys??

[Moses]

Big Lots is a more painful journey for me than Ross is, and wave 11 isn't worth the effort for me. I went once and was pretty disappointed

i hear you.. i went to my big lots like 3 or 4 times already and not a sign.. i think we got shafted on this..

[worldgorger]

stopped at my local marshalls in rutherford yesterday around 7pm. as i was walking in, i saw some guy with the armadillo & serpentors chariot vehicle set, along with 2pack comic packs. asked i him he left me any of the spoils of the find...

was this guy any of you guys?

i was hoping to find some single carded figures..but walked out with the comic packs.

tj maxx has been a homerun for me everytime i stop in one. picked up a wraith, crocmaster, and bat at the one in lyndhurst the other day.

[Moses]

I stopped by my local Marshall's in North Brunswick last night. Only vehicle packs and 12" figures - no singles or comic packs.

I did pick up a SW Joker Squad pack while I was there

[Unclassified]

i haven't tried no marsh or tj max, the past weeks i kept checking out big lots for big dissapoinments, so then i moved to family dollar to be disapointed there too. i don't get how basically every state gets em, but us..

[Unclassified]

and why the f is this thread so damn dead??? where is everyone anymore???

[Moses]

At my local Marshall's I found:

Sharc, Fire Bat, Ram & Trouble Bubble $12.99

No single figures:(


I would really like to get everyone's email addresses in the ROC Group so we can publish a weekly findings/wanted/have newsletter every Friday so we can be on the lookout for each other on the weekend!

Add in the Serpentor/Steeler pack and that's what I have seen at 2 Marshalls in the past few days.

It does seem like NJ gets the shaft when it comes to closeout store distribution. But I guess on the other hand, when I look at what I have accumulated it may be better I don't find more stuff I would be compelled to buy.

I am up for getting in the newsletter, although until POC hits sighting will probably be slim.

[Moses]

Went on a little journey last night, stopped by Marshall's, TJ Maxx and Ross down in the Princeton area, but nothing worthwhile at any of them. I drove by a Tuesday Morning, but it was closed - I guess because it was Wednesday night.

Last Joes I bought were clearanced Baroness and Ice Viper at Target a couple days back.

Tonight I am going to stop at a Family Dollar, but am not holding my breath.

[Moses]

Family Dollar was a waste of time, good thing it wasn't far out of the way. Only Joe item I saw there was a Combat Hero Baroness figure in a single pack for $3.

I stopped at Target in Bridgewater on my way to visit a friend over that way and bought 3 Desert Ambush Dukes and found a MU Black Widow.

[Moses]

Stopped at Tuesday Morning in Kendall Park today and they had a few Joes. Picked up General Hawk and Bazooka, left Maj Bludd, BBQ and Flash. Looks like someone hit up the troop builders of that wave already.

Checked a bunch of Targets and no sign of A-Team yet. Maybe better that way, I hear the paint apps on the first batches are horrendous. I bet they will be on sale when the movie hits if I can wait that long once I see them

[Hellion42]

If anyone still needs any RoC figs, the redundant Walmart (on Cooper Ave in I think Deptford) has what looks like a couple hundred stacked on the clearance shelf. Price isn't spectacular at $5, but I did see some Eels and red Turtle Vipers.

[lucard123]

no one really posts on this thread hardly anymore?
where is everyone?

[Moses]

I think we are all waiting for something new or different to show up in the stores. I am lurking until then.

[Owner of a Lonely B.A.T.]

Wish I could post some stuff...the best I can say is the FD in Old Bridge has a few figures at $3...Barbecue and Bazooka.

[lucard123]

New figures

[Moses]

Not as exciting as Lucard's haul up above, but it looks like Targets have put out a couple more wave 1/2 Deluxe figure sets. I picked up one more SNAKE.

[vega-1]

New figures

Did you order these?

[vega-1]

Nothing out there to post for and I don't army build so theirs no need for me to post..... Thats my reason :)

[Moses]

It may finally be time for this forum to get a little busier. I picked up the new HISS and Wolf Hound at TRU in east Brunswick tonight. Looks like stores are getting one set, so if they are putting them out the may not last long.

[Hellion42]

The new vehicles are $25, right? A bit steep for my broke ass, but they look good.

[Moses]

Yes, the new vehicles are Bravo class so they are $25. Maybe a little pricey, and I thought Hasbro said something about their pricepoints being high. But I have to say the packaging is a HUGE improvement - old school style vehicle boxes.

I do still like the classic HISS better, but the new one is a nice update, and is much larger. The WolfHound is an excellent update.

[vega-1]

Yeah baby ! It's about freakin time!

[xcobrasoldierx]

just letting you nj people know theres a toys r us express on marin blvd near the target and best buy they just opened they only have the gi joe heroes 2 pack rise of cobra the woman said they are trying to keep the store open there for good if buisness does good so its near the holland tunnel they got a decent amount of things there star wars iron man wwe figures i didnt look thru the whole store but it seemed like they might get some more stuff eventually there
i told her id let the word out about the store ..

[D-Unit]

The TRU in Eatontown NJ (Rt. 35) had 2 Wolf Hounds yesterday. I didn't see anything else new, but it might still be there today if anyone is interested.

[lucard123]

Hello fellow tankers!
The new Hiss Tank and Wolf Hound have finally hit the south jersey area.
Pics below.. means the POC figures are not far behind..

[Moses]

Good score Lucard - These hit North Jersey last week. Hopefully we will see the TRU exclusive figures come out soon, if not all of them.

[lucard123]

I hope they start showing up soon.. spirit looks great as does quick kick

[lucard123]

CherryHill NJ has wolf hound and Hisstank

[Owner of a Lonely B.A.T.]

Grabbed the HISS & Wolfwoud yesterday in TRU Woodbridge.

[Moses]

Found an Eel at New Brunswick Family Dollar, along with a pilot scarlett and bazooka trooper. Saw 2x HISS and Wolfhounds at TRU in Woodbridge. Looks like they might not be tough to find in the long run - I sure hope kids will buy them

[Skull]

so no poc alpha sightings in our woods yet. Might do a run tomorrow ill keep you all posted

[Moses]

So far I think all the POC alpha sighting have been west coast, so it may take a week or two for them to trickle over here. Nevertheless I am still going to stop at Walmart and TRU regularly.

[lucard123]

I havent seen anything other than the wolfhound out in the local stores... anyone else?

[Owner of a Lonely B.A.T.]

Joe wise no.
I found the Wolfhound and HISS twice in TRU on Rt 1. The first time I bought two of each of them, the second time I passed but went back for a friend the next day and they were gone again.

But TF it seems TRU is fully stocked.

[Owner of a Lonely B.A.T.]

Oh I should add Target Menlo has whatever is left of their Joe, Star Wars and TF's at clearence prices. There's not much of any of it but its a clear indication that their gonna reset those areas soon.

[lucard123]

i seen them maing room at the targets on the shelves.. so hopefully its preparation

[Hellion42]

1 each of the Hiss and Wolfhound at Burlington TRU. A few Slurpee Water Moccasins too. Also 2 for $10 singles, tons of the last round of exclusives.

[lucard123]

Nada

[Moses]

I picked up the TRU exclusives - Spriti and Quick Kick - at TRU in Somerville last night. The also had a couple HISS and Wolfhounds, but no other singles.

[lucard123]

I still need quick kick
