Post your Minnesota sightings here.

As of 7/9/07, I've not seen any 25th Anniversary product in Minneapolis or surrounding suburbs.

Target looks be clearing out all remaining Sigma 6 product.

25th single packs found at Lake Street K-Mart in Minneapolis on Friday 7/13. Bought 1 of everything, leaving 1 Storm Shadow and 1 Snake-eyes with white Timber.

Also found 1 each of the 5-packs at Maplewood TRU. None left.

Sure they start showing up just days before I move. Oh well I'm sure they are in AZ by now too

Picked up Cobra Commander (Hooded) and Cobra Officer at the K-Mart on 42nd in New Hope. They still had a few Storm Shadows, Snake Eyes (With Both Timbers) (Cards Bent) and one Flint.

So Concludes my last Minnesota Sighting.

Just passing this along...

At TFW, the Joe and Cobra 5-packs were sighted today at the Downtown Target. Apparently, the Joe packs are now gone, but there may still be one Cobra pack left.

DT Target had one cobra 5 pack left as of noon today and no single carded figures

Blaine Super Target as of 8 this morning had 1 Joes 5 pack left and 2-3 figures each of the single carded figure (no black Timber though).

Northtown Target was supposed to do their reset too overnight or early this morning. But, since I wasn't there, I cannot confirm they have the Joes.

All for my baby brother :D

DT Target has the GI Joe 5 packs, 3 left, at least one was the Joes. Singles were restock too, finally got Cobra Commander, but missed out on the Officer again

Found a few singles at the Woodbury Target. One Joe 5 pack.

Just left the EP Target. They have 3 Joe 5 packs and 1 Cobra 5 pack.

I already have the first 25. Still need the black timber

Found wave two at Wal-Mart today, they should be hitting Target and K-Mart soon.

Found wave two at Wal-Mart today, they should be hitting Target and K-Mart soon.

Josh

Which Walmart? And where there any left?

checked 6 wal-marts today and they had nothing

Found wave 2 at St Louis Park Target this Morning. They only had one case, so only SS, CC and SE (from wave 1) were left after I was done.

The only Cobra Soldier they had has bad spray apps on the face, so if anyone happens to find an extra, I'd be happy to reimburse you.

Went to the Edina Super target today. They had 4 pegs jammed full. 8 CC, 6 SS, 1 Flint, 1 officer and 9 SE with Grey Timber. I didn't buy any because I have all those.

I asked someone if there were more in the back. He said yes but he can't bring them out. I asked why and he said "they are trying to prevent collectors from causing them more work". I didn't fully understand, and asked him to repeat that. He then followed with we aren't going to fill the pegs until those sell first. He then walked away.

So for all I know, they could have wave 2 and 3 in the back. So check the Edina Super Target if you guys can.

Why in the world did they still have wave one. If they put them out earlier they would not have this problem and that has to be one of the most stupid things that I have heard, that person is a moron. Found wave two here in New Ulm a while ago one case so there was nothing left. Last Friday got wave three except Firefly and again and one case. That was at Target. I do not like to be negative but this is getting stupid, driving around finding nothing. Was in Mankato found remnants of previous waves. I hope it gets better but I do not think it will.

Happy hunting Fellas, sorry for not telling where I found them earlier, just thought it was not important because they only had one case.

I will keep you guys posted.

Josh

Hi guys....

Im a frequenter at TFW.2005 And I heard my log-in works here too!

So here I am....lol

Well, my dillemma is I have found a zartan at bloom walmart....his bubble is all crushed though....

I will trade a 25th red ninja, and a 25th C. officer for a minty Zartan if anyone is up for a trade...


bloom walmart had a couple 25th's left as of 12pm today...

1 legion cobra pack at knollwood target as of 2pm today


So if anyone could hook me up on a minty zartan for my 2 fig trade Id appreciate it, or hold one somewheres for me would be sweet....

Cya....

Got that last Cobra Pack #2 from Target Knollwood. Also checked Edina Super Target. All wave 1 as Monkeywrench said, but the scanner said no more in back.

Shortcircuit, if you find your minty Zartan, I'll take the crushed one off your hands!

Enemy, hahah, I would glady do so!

xpecially if you find me one first ! haha j/k...

Great the 5 pack was still there at target for ya....

Man, I went to Brook Park wal mart to see whats happening, they moved thier whole toy dept by the mens clothing....I seen 2 storm shadows 1 was bent hard and 2 snakes, both of em were MANGLED!

Arg how it pains me to see just wrecked cards and bubbles....

I went to maple grove WM today...NADA. "yet"...

I wonder how the distribution is gonna be on these....

I swear all I see is empty pegs.....

I've seen plenty of the cobra legions 5 pack at various targets.

Damn the barren pegs! Me seeing two full sets of wave 2 last week must have meant someone slept in, that can only be the reason.

Where is everyone spotting wave 3? Has it landed on the northern metro area yet (blaine,brooklyn park, coon rapids etc.)?

Sent you a PM, iflabs!

I have yet to spot wave 3, myself.


BTW, welcome!

Stopped by 6 Targets this morning. I found the special wave Hasbro released.

25th Anniversary GI Joe: Celebrating 25 weeks of Hasbro Transformers movie toys fiasco, GI Joe style.

I saw the full complete set consisting of:
-P.I.T.A
-Mr. Frustration
-The Triplet Peg Warmers
-The Enemy: GasMuncher
-Stoked: ZOMG I FINALLY FOUND SOMETHING, HAPPY DANCE!

Will trade any of the above for wave 3, PM please.

Seriously, I really hope Hasbro amps up the production of the 25th figures by December. Seems like it's attracting new collectors into this line--that's me. Luck is the only thing going for me.

OMG i crapped my pants lol.

Ive had my share of The Enemy:Gas Muncher and damn I lost the reciept and can't return it now!

If anyone sees GI Joe: Angry StoreStocker Variant let me know!

0.0

4x Cobra Legions set at Bloomington Target, as of about 12:30pm.

Again, this is the old Southtown Target, as opposed to the new Richfield/airport Target.

The EP Target has changed there Peg room from 4 to 2.
They had 1 Joe 5 pack today.

Went to the EP Target last night. They had 3 Cobra Legion packs, I bought 1. They had 2 Joe 5 packs. I was the flying Joes one. I thought about buying it but I'm not into variants too much. No carded figures yet.

Yeah, drove all the way across town in between Brooklyn Park -> Edina Targets on Monday and found nothing. No signs of wave 3.

Wave 3 is in and in healthy numbers too! All the 25th pegs were stocked fully, heck I think they may even have more in the back. The sets came with the firefly crotch fix. Alot of cobra officers are there also, and I mean alot.

Found them at the Brooklyn Park Target.

Well, they're probably gone by now, but I'd love a Zartan if anybody can grab an extra one for me. I live in Uptown Mpls, but I can meet anywhere in the metro.

Found them at the Brooklyn Park Target.

Hey man, did you mean Brooklyn CENTER Target? I went to Brooklyn Park this morning when they opened, and there was nothing but SE and SS. Scanner said none in back.

Then I checked Brooklyn CENTER Target, and while it was just SS and SE on the pegs, the scanner said more in back. I asked a lady to check, and she came back with one Shipwreck and one Firefly saying, "that's all we have". I guess employees have been going through the cases. Not sure why else there'd be just two figures in the back.

THEN, checked St Louis Park Target, which actually had wave 3 out. Picked up the remaining Zartan (color change face and neck, non-color change card), Stalker and Shipwreck (this one had the anchor tat). 2 left of Firefly and at least 1 Red Ninja, as well as 2-3 Cobra Officers. This was as of 10am.

DT Target finally got wave 3 in, I picked up the actual 5 wave 3'ers, but SE's, SS's and officers were all that was left. It was green stalker, anchor shipweck and non color change on non color change card zartan.

Hey man, did you mean Brooklyn CENTER Target? I went to Brooklyn Park this morning when they opened, and there was nothing but SE and SS. Scanner said none in back.



It was the BP Target alright, the one a few blocks down from WM. Those SE and SS are remanents of wave 3 as I did see a few of those. The new wave must've flown off the pegs fast. Pegs were topped off fully went I got their yesterday. I only nabbed a firefly, stalker, and cobra officer that day.

Ya that area is kinda wierd..

theres the shingle creek one,

brooklyn blvd one....

and kinda but not really, the crystal one....

ps, glad you found your zartan rodimus enemy pie


PpS: need an (minty) anchor shipwreck if anyone spots one, Id appreciate the luv. that will complete my hunt so far till december MUHUHAHHAHAAA *cough cough*.....ugh

Just heard about this site through YoJoe. Eden Prairie Center Target has two cases of wave three on the pegs. I was just there on my lunch break. I didn't pick any up because I found the wave last week elsewhere.

If anyone hasn't found wave 3 yet, Toy Corner at the MOA has, seriously, about 10-12 of each figure. Granted, they're $7.99 each.

Zartans are all color-changing on non-color change cards.

Shipwrecks I THINK had some of both tatoos.

Stalkers were all green.

Fireflys were all fixed crotch with one diaper crotch mixed in.

And, come to think of it, I don't remember actually seeing Red Ninja. Hmmm.

You guys are lucky you have access to all those stores. The walmart here didnt have any figures in at all...how lame.

how did you pull that off?

how did you pull that off?

Saw the peg sticker read "GI JOE Lady Jaye" for $1. I know crazy right? But it's true. Got everything else price checked and came out to $1 at walmart.

WTF??? Which Wal-Mart did this happen at?

WTF??? Which Wal-Mart did this happen at?

Psssyyycccchhheee! I photoshopped the receipt. Hahahaha.






































































But seriously, found these for $1 at the Fridley Walmart.

More of an anti-sighting:

The St Louis Park Target now has NO PEGS devoted to 25th Joes. Elite Force/Brigade/whatever has taken over all pegs where Joes used to be. Even the peg labels have been changed.

I hope Target's not giving up on Joes because they can't get consistent stock. It sucks, because that target was the first place I found Waves 2 and 3 at retail.

which slp target?

theres knollwood and theres the 36th street target.....

btw "those jerkys!"

I blame the toy dept managers.....

Target is the spot where I found most of mine.....

Ridgedale, Knollwood, some at 36th st taget in SLP, and bloomington target had real hot finds.....

I see this dude "macross" on Ebay, he's in MN... and dude has the whole Gi Joe set for sale for like a ridiculous 319.99......

Either he ordered online to sell the whole set , or he got lucky at retail locally, I haven't found ANY of wave 4 yet at retail....

but I haven't been searching locally like I did for the past wave's.

which slp target?

theres knollwood and theres the 36th street target.....



Is Knollwood technically SLP? I thought it was Hopkins or Minnetonka by that point.

Anyway, I was referring to the one on 36th st.

Well, I would say hopkins starts at the south side of hwy 7 and blake rd. Or should I say the "Walgreens" side.

I believe that is where the hopkins area splits off....

Knollwood is definately SLP. At least, to me anyway cause I'm from SLP.

Thanks for the clarification though....

Ya 36th st. Target needs work though IMO. When I go in there, the store kinda gives me that "ageing" feeling....

Ha, guess Target figured replacing the constantly barren 25th Joe pegs would much more productive.

Finally found a Flint at TRU with that weird assortment that has a mix of Wave 2 and 3.

No sights of Wave 4 yet. Anyone actually going to buy something from this wave? I already have them from the boxsets and guess many of you do too.

I will buy wave 4. I didn't buy the sets because I like the carded look more.

More troubling news: Roseville SuperTarget has also taken down all pegs for 25th figures. Has anybody else seen this? Is Target even ordering these anymore???

Hopefully the Jan 24th rollout at Walmart will herald a larger presence at retail in general. Otherwise I don't see how the line can continue.

The only Walmart I have found the 25th at is the Inver grove Heights one. Granted, I don't normally visit WalMart, but I have looked at a few others with no luck. That sucks that the flagship Target is taking the 25th line off the pegs. Hopefully after the post holiday reset they return.

Price tag for 25th joes at Blaine Target is gone also. Has anyone seen a Zartan without that barf green color changing face?

Some good news...

The new airport Supertarget and Edina Supertarget both have wave 2 and 3 singles out. 3 or 4 pegs devoted to Joes, but only about half full of product.

For army builders, Toy Corner at the MOA has a shit ton of Cobra Troopers, and well as everything else from waves 2 and 3.

Hey, if anyone finds an extra Hawk/Scarlett comic pack from the Target reset, can you grab one for me?

I'll be up in Fargo all week with the GF and I doubt I'll find anything up there.

Ya, I have seen the Target revamp post on the 30th too....Ill keep my eyes open.

I broke down and ordered wave 4 from Toynk on Ebay. 61 bucks shipped for all 8. I mean come on, taget prices are 5.99 a piece, x 8 = 47.92, x .065 MN tax = 51.03. What did I spend, 10 bucks extra? I figured why not...*sigh.
My desperation led my wallet I guess. I was just sick of driving and finding bare pegs, and old people with carts in my way and those damn Minnesota snow-scared parking lot fools.

Alas, I was at knollwood today lookin' for a new sweater and 25th's....NADA.

Even Maple Grove Walmart....NADA.

Anyways, Im talkin pegs plucked clean everywhere. Almost made me sad to see nothing juicy on the pegs at all....it was like a sandy, dry desert that left a bad taste in my mouth.

Any Idea whats up with Target across the street from MG walmart? Guess they couldn't compete with Big W eh? So they had to move!?

You probably saved money when you figure in all the gas you use looking for Joes. Not a bad deal. Hopefully Targets start putting out waves 4 and 5 when they reset along with comic packs. The stores that took the single pack Joes down must have some sitting in the stockroom.

I visited three Targets today and none of them had reset. Apple Valley and Burnsville had out new singles, but they were wave three. Savage had the five packs on clearance for 17.48 and nothing else for Joes.

Nothin yet eh Celt. bah.


By the time we start seeing the wave 4 OR 5, maybe 6 will be out lol.

Still stuck in Fargo. Anyone found anything today?

Happy new year!

Nada.

Went to knollwood and w 36th st. in SLP.

1 beachead n buzzer. at w 36th. thats about it.

elite trooper up the yin-yang in there. pegs stocked full. clearanced prices, like 3 bucks or something if I remember right. But I didnt take a good look at the price cause I hate even looking at those things lol. At this point, looking at those elite forces on the pegs is like looking into the sun.

Nothing in Cali during my trip there. No signs of anything new in MN yet. :(

2x Hawk/Scarlett and 2x Duke/CC left at Blaine Supertarget as of 2:45pm. Oh, and 6x SE/SS. Let the shelfwarming begin.

Also, they had a good stock of the revised Wave 3 singles, including Buzzer.

Seems like Targets are finally getting around to the reset. The Burnsville Target had the comic packs on the pegs. I still have not come across wave 4 or 5 anywhere yet.

Spotted Wave 5 at Roseville Super Target. Picked up trooper, GC, SE, and SJ. Didn't see that Destro myself either.

What's left of Wave 5: 1x GC and repacks from previous series.

Sounds like good news. Went to one wal-mart, had 3 comic packs wave one. Also hit two targets both had plenty of the comic packs and a lot of wave 3 at one of the targets and the other had the grey dot on the peg. So they are getting them soon. I hope it is wave 5. I seen wave 4 once here in southern MN. It is frustrating that it is so slow to get to us, when a lot of other states have been finding them for about a month. I was saying that about wave 3 and now they are everywhere.

Happy hunting fellas!!

Josh

seen some wave 5 at st louis park targets and ridgedale. snow job-flash-cg-snakeeyes, didn't see the elusive iron destro yet.....

Found the Breaker and Dreadnok comic packs at Eagan Walmart last night. Bought two of each. None left. They also had 2x SE SS with the fixed crotch SE, but the 1 Hawk set they had did NOT have the fixed crotch.

I'm pretty sure it was all from 1 Wave two case, so maybe both versions of Hawk are still shipping in Wave Two?

That said, if anybody sees a t-crotch Hawk set, please grab me one and I'll re-imburse you.

Good to see new stuff is finally showing. I did find wave 5 at TRU in Burnsville today. I picked up SE, Flash, SJ and one CG. I left Destro and the other CG along with the repacks. I'll have to start stalking WalMarts to find that Breaker 2 pack. I checked a few yesterday but found nothing new. I was glad to see Walmarts finally devoting some space to Joes, though.

Found wave 5 at the Andover and Elk River Target stores on Saturday, 1/19. Found wave 5 last Friday, 1/17 at the Blaine Toys R Us.

Champlin Target has a lot of red ninja figures if anyone needs a few.

Saw comic pack pegwarmers at the Brooklyn Park and Maple Grove Wal-Marts last Saturday. Still have found the Drednoks pack but I did find the Breaker set a few weeks back at the Elk River Wal-Mart.

Found some more wave 5 figures and wave 1 comic packs at the Blaine TRU on Wednesday, 1/23. I picked up the 2 Crimson Guards and 1 Flash they had. They seem to have received the wave 1 comic packs only and I don't think they have had Breaker/Destro or the Noks yet.

Don't go to the Blaine or Fridley Wal-Mart stores if you're looking for GI Joe figures. They did there reset and they drastically reduced there action figure aisle to about 12-16 feet and no Joe pegs.

The Coon Rapids WM has pegs for the single carded figures only.

Elk River, Maple Grove, Midway, St. Anthony have pegs for the comic packs and single figures.

The Brooklyn Park had comic packs on Saturday, 1/19 but they didn't have there reset done yet. However, I imagine they will have both comic pack and single pegs when their reset is done.

These are the only WM stores I've checked.

Haven't seen a single single pack figure at a Wal-Mart since they started doing their resets.

Is Brooklyn Park done with their remodel yet or are they still ghetto?

I'll be up there on Mon-Tues and want to hit some of my old haunts for futility's sake.

Wave 4 is showing up now. I saw it yesterday at the Target in Savage and today at the Wal Mart in Eagan. I saw wave 5 at the Inver Grove Heights Wal Mart. I have yet to see the wave 2 comic packs but that's okay. My wallet needs a small break.

I'll Be Up There Tomorrow, Hunting Your Joes

LOL, wow wave 4 is only hitting the pegs now. I thought MN skipped out on it all together. Can't wait for tomax and xamot.

I'll Be Up There Tomorrow, Hunting Your Joes

Back away from mah joes! Har har, I kid. So...you did buy a Popcultureshock 1/4 Akuma, riggghhhttt?

Checked the EP Target today. All they have is a ton of wave 1 comic packs.

Found the Dreadnok wave of comic packs with new crotch Hawk and blue Snake Eyes at the Blaine and Anoka K-Mart stores. The Hawk seems to be 1 per case. They didn't have any single packs at either store.

Bought 1 Dreadnok and Hawk set at the Blaine store.
Bought 1 Hawk set at the Anoka store.
Each store still has Breakers and Dreadnoks if anyone needs them.
I would assume all KM stores got these today.

Thanks to spiderpumpkin, I found the fixed/t-crotch Hawk at Lake St. KMart. Also checked Richfield KMart, and they had a whole case of Wave 2, but with the diaper-crotch Hawk.

But strangely, that KMart did have a Joe 5-pack with grey Snake-eyes with the crotch fix. I've got a thread going here with pics...

http://www.hisstank.com/forum/showthread.php?p=56631#post56631

Glad to hear you found some good things at KM. I never thought of looking at the 5-Packs for the new crotch Snake Eyes.

This morning I found the new army builder wave at the Champlin Target. They received Stalker, Buzzer, Zartan, Serpentor, Red Ninja, Cobra Soldier and a Officer. I bought the Officer but they still have the 2 Soldiers. They also have about 8 red ninjas that have been pegwarming for a few weeks now.

Nothing new at the Maple Grove Target unless you need about 10 Shipwrecks and 10 Hooded Cobra Commanders.

Some one beat me to the army builder wave at the Brooklyn Park Target.

Nothing at the BP WM or MG WM. However, I bet tonight's pallets or tomorrows pegs may have the new wave 3 comic packs. If I didn't already miss them today.

I stopped at the Blaine K-Mart this evening and they received some of the 5-Packs. They received 4 Legion sets and 2 GI Joe sets. I bought the 1 GI Joe set that had a new crotch grey Snake Eyes V1. The other set was the old crotch. This KM was sold through on the Dreadnoks and Breakers.

The Anoka KM still had all the comic packs except for the Hawk set which I bought last week. It looks like this store hasn't received any 5-Packs lately and they didn't have the new crotch Snake Eyes.

Nothing at the Riverdale/Coon Rapids WM, Northtown/Coon Rapids Target or Blaine TRU. The Blaine TRU has plenty of hooded CC and Shipwreck in stock. I really wish they would have shipped more Crimson Guards in w5 instead of these 2 guys.

spiderpumpkin, thanks for the info about Kmart having the wave 2 comic packs. I visited the Burnsville store today and picked up the one Dreadnok pack and one of the Breaker packs. They do not have any singles there. I didn't check the Hawk for the new crotch but I might go there tomorrow and look him over. They also had the five packs. I will check to see which Snake Eyes they have.

I saw nothing new at the Coon Rapids/Riverdale Target, Riverdale Wal-mart or Anoka K-Mart.

I did find 3 Crimson Guards and a couple Flash figures at the Blaine K-Mart on Monday but I still have seen the single card figures at the Anoka KM.

Also, went up to the Elk River WM and found a lone Officer that I bought. It looks like they received the new filler wave. No sign of wave 2 or 3 comic packs anywhere except for K-Marts in Blaine and Anoka.

The Coon Rapids/Riverdale Wal-Mart had some wave 4 figures last night. I picked up the Cobra Commander V1. Someone already bought the Scarlett and Air Trooper figures.

I have been coming across wave 4 at several Walmarts. Target seems to be stuck with that stupid filler wave that will probably clog the pegs for a while.

Hit the EP Target yesterday. They had the filler wave and wave 1 comic packs. I bought the 6 troopers and 3 officers from the filler wave.

Last night I found 4 Crimson Guards at the St. Paul/Maryland Ave. K-Mart, 2 Officers and a fixed Hawk pack at the Oakdale KM, 2 Crimson Guards and 2 Flash and 1 fixed Hawk pack at the White Bear Lake KM. I also found an Air Trooper at the Woodbury Wal-Mart.

Anoka and New Hope still haven't received single pack figures that I can tell. It seems like some KM stores received wave 5 while others have received the soldier/officer wave.

Today, I found the Tomax Xamot set at the Monticello WM.

I found some of the wave 3 comic packs at the West St Paul Wal Mart today. They had all but the twins. I picked up the lone Ace/WW and the one CG/Scarface they had. I left the SE/SS pack and the wave 1 remnants. I also checked the Target next door, the Inver Grove Wal Mart and the Eagan Wal Mart and found nothing new, just wave 1. No sign of wave 6 singles yet. All the stores I checked had a mix of wave 4 and the fillers.

Found one lone Ace/WW at St Anthony Walmart yesterday. No other signs of Wave 3 comic packs.

Yesterday, I found wave 3 comic packs at the Blaine Toys R Us. They also had a couple sets of wave 4 single packs which included the Gung Ho with new crotch. I picked up Gung Ho, 2 Wild Weasel sets and 2 Crimson Guard sets.

I also stopped at the Maplewood TRU yesterday but they didn't have anything new.

I picked up the Crimson Twins tonight at the Shakopee Walmart. They also had the other comic packs from wave 3 and wave 4 singles.

DT Target had the wave 2 and 3 comic packs today, picked up 1 of each except the SE/SS 21 1/2

Found wave 6 at the Brooklyn Park WM last night at about 11pm. Torpedo is awesome.

No sign of wave 6 at Monticello, Elk River or Coon Rapids WM.

Found Crimson Guards at Champlin, Monticello and Elk River Target stores today.

Found more wave 3 comic packs at Andover and Monticello Targets.

Found 3 Crimson Guards at the Blaine K-Mart Friday afternoon.

Found 1 Air Trooper at the Anoka K-Mart last night.

Haven't seen anything good at Blaine Toys R Us since about 10 days ago. Hopefully, the 3-Packs and 5-Pack exclusives show up soon. I can't wait to be surprised.

I found one Rock N Roll at the Walmart in Apple Valley tonight. No sign of Torpedo or CC.

Hit target and Wal-Mart tonight in Mankato. Target had 3 cases of wave five, then hit Wal-Mart and they had what looked like cases of wave five but there was also some Beachheads, Hooded CC and Serpy, no Troopers of any kind, there was Flash and Black Snake. There was no IG Destro or Snow Job. So I don't know if they got wave 5 & 6 at the same time and I missed the new wave 6 figures. Did you guys in the Cities get 5 & 6 at the same time?

I also want to say thanks for you guys posting when you find figures because when they hit up there they are within a week later down here in Southern MN.

Did get the Crimson Guards so it was not a bad night.

http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y209/riggs340/DSC02979.jpg

Great find there. Those Crimson Guard figures are addictive. I can never leave them on the peg because they are so cool. So far they have been easy to find at times. I've found a few just about every week for a while now. I hope the Viper and BAT are somewhat easy to find like these. How many CGs did you leave on the pegs?

These were the first that I found on the pegs, so needles to say I did not leave any. Also think though there was at least 3 cases of wave 6 but some body took them all. Oh well just keep hunting. Hope that I can find the Vipers and the Bats this easily to. How many troopers and Crimson guards do you have?

I went out hunting this morning but only found 1 Crimson Guard at the Coon Rapids/Riverdale Target store.
After that I went to Champlin and Brooklyn Park Target but they were wiped out except for wave 4 or red ninjas.
BP Wal-Mart had nothing new.
Coon Rapids/Riverdale WM had new.
Blaine KM had nothing new.
Blaine TRU had nothing new.

I say this without malice, as I have everything I want...

Howsabout leaving some CG's for everyone else? Sound like you have a lot of time to look, which is enviable. But this wave is not as easy to find for a lot of people. I think we all appreciate the sightings, but it would be more helpful if you guys left something behind for others to actually buy.

Again, I'm not trying to browbeat anybody; I just want everyone to find what they want.

Here what you are saying, but in all reality it is just not how it is. As a collector and a small army builder around 20 figures for each trooper character, if you do not buy the figures you want you may never see them again. Here in southern MN we get 2 maybe 3 cases at a time, every two weeks. Other collectors find them first, which I know that was the case the other night where walmart got at least 3 cases of wave 6 and the person who stocks the shelf today told me one younger fella took all the new figures. Nothen I could do about it, I wish he would have left me some of the new ones but he did not, it is just the way it is. If you do not take the figure that you want when you see them by the time you see figures again they moved on to the next wave. Heck I never seen wave 1 in person or 4 until two weeks ago. I also get figures for 2 of my brothers who do not get to go out looking that much, so if I did not pick up these they would have been pissed. I wish everybody could find all the figures that they want but I blame it on poor distribution. Say a guy needs two sets one to keep in, one to take out, so now that leaves one set left, 2 people get the figures in a city with 45,000 people. I mean, this is really hard to find figures at retail. I know they will get about 6 cases in before the next wave but it is really hard to find them before somebody else does. So if you are wondering why I do not leave anything behind this is why, collecting for 3 and that it is pretty scarce around here. I just hope Hasbro increase the case size or how many cases they send at a time, and I know it has a lot to do with each individual store.

Howsabout leaving some CG's for everyone else?

I've missed a lot more Crimson Guards than I've purchased. It has taken me 2 months to find 40 of these. I usually look after work and find nothing. Then on my day off during the week I look around and find nothing because someone else had the luck that day or the days I worked. I'm not going to pass up something that I'm collecting when I'm lucky enough to find them on a given day because I might upset someone.

I'm not an army builder type guy. I might buy 3 or 4 of each at the most. I can understand that hard core army builders and also people who really, really like a figure will want multiples. The CGs, Cobra troops and Cobra Officers have been out long enough that people that wanted a few should have been able to find them by now. I see them all of the time on my hunts. I say that if people buy a bunch of figures that only helps us all out in the end. Ideally stores will replenish the product (hopefully Hasbro helps with this) and newer stuff will be put on the pegs. Old stuff won't sit around and rot like the wave 1 comic packs. I agree that it sucks when new stuff comes out and there might be one or two repacks of the new wave left behind, but that's all part of the hunt. The good part about a site like this is that we can share info with others who share the collecting bug and hopefully help each other out from time to time when we might grab something extra for another. Basically I'm saying "Come on, group hug!!!" :)

As a collector and a small army builder around 20 figures for each trooper character, if you do not buy the figures you want you may never see them again [...] I mean, this is really hard to find figures at retail.

Exactly my point. Which is why I would hope that armybuilders would exercise a bit of restraint for the sake of fellow collectors.

[QUOTE=Roadblock]So if you are wondering why I do not leave anything behind this is why, collecting for 3 and that it is pretty scarce around here.

Now this is totally understandable. Over at the TFW forums, people routinely pick up things for other collectors. I have no qualms about helping out others.

It's not about pissing off someone, it's about helping the community.

Now that's what I'm talking about!

I'm not claiming moral superiority. I myself haven't had many good sightings lately, because others usually post before me. So I'm not really that much help. And you guys have posted some helpful sightings in the past, which again is great. I think we can all agree that this line is a whole is really difficult to track down, no question about that.

Army building is understandably a significant part of our hobby. I just hope we can help each other out, is all.

found 2 sets at maplewood toys r us, left 1 set behind

I visited the new Apple Valley Super Target last night. They have wave 1 comic packs and what looks to be the army builder wave. Lots of Red Ninjas, Cobra Officers and Viper Pilot/Cobra figures to be had. I was also at the Super Target in Richfield near the airport and they had wave 3 comic packs and the Dreadnoks.

I stopped at the Blaine TRU after work on Friday and they had remnants of the Torpedo wave. I picked up 1 Ninja 5-pack and 1 Night 5-pack. They still had 1 of each boxed set when I left. Someone bought the CGs before I got there.

I'm all for helping out others. However, no one has stated recently something like "hey guys pick up a CG for me if you find one".

I'm all for helping out others. However, no one has stated recently something like "hey guys pick up a CG for me if you find one".

That is true, people haven't been asking for much help. And I guess you guys were right; CGs are starting to become more plentiful. My neck of the woods is perhaps more densly populated, so maybe things are scarcer here.

Now for a sighting....

As of 3pm today, 1 armoured CC and 1 Torpedo at the St Louis Park Target off 36th st. Also 1 CG and 1 Snow Job. I picked up one R&R, left everthing else. There was another collector looking though. Not sure if he bought anything. One of you guys?

Ya, possibly was me, I was in SLP target tonight....around...8'ish? Looking like a bum w glasses, a grey hoody.... *EDIT oops I see 3'ish, I was in there around 8pm tonite.....

Actually I went to both SLP's.

I found 1 R&R at one, and found 1 torpedo at the other one.....

They mustve gotten them in like yesterday, or the day before cause I was on the hunt for wv 6 earlier this week. Nice to actually see them in person now haha.

The WV 6 GI JOE chrome is really shiny compared to the old ones Ive been seeing, thats pretty neat.

There was also WV 4 stuff at Knollwood and 36'th st when I left as Teh Enemy stated....

I need an Armor CC and I am done w wv 6 woop! :)

Probably not even a good sighting anymore, but SLP Target on 36th was well stocked with Wave 5, including IG Destro. I'd say at least 2 of each, plus some older stuff. Just the usual 3 diaper-crotch Hawk 2-packs hanging around.

Anybody checked the St. Cloud TRU lately?

Brooklyn Park, Crystal and Andover Target stores have 4 cases of vehicles in each of their backrooms. Haven't been to any of them yet because I'll probably wait for these to hit clearance or pass all together.

EP Walmart had nothing today

Hey all!

New to the boards, but thought I'd pop on with my fellow Minnesotans first to start posting.

Toys R Us Blaine has a good amount of Air Troopers if anyone is still looking for army building. They also had two of both the exclusive 5-packs there today. Also saw a Cobra Trooper and Ace/Wild Weasel comic pack still there.

If anyone gets ahold of the vehicles from Target, could someone pick me up one maybe? LOL Neither the Coon Rapids or Blaine Targets that are near me have them in their backrooms yet and I know how hard it gets sometimes to find new things around here once out.

If you need the new Target vehicles then go to Brooklyn Park, Crystal, Vandais Heights or Andover. Each store had 4 cases in back as of Friday afternoon. I know of one person who bought a case of 3 at Vadnais last night. 087060918

Also, I saw a at least 30 GI Joe figures at the Blaine K-Mart yesterday. They had them piled on the top shelf above the Joe area. I saw a lot of Crimson Guards and other Wave 5 guys. If anyone needs some then that may be a good place to stop.

Scored all three vehicles at Knollwood Target

http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-8/331978/GIJoeHaul.JPG

They have the Target exclusive vehicles at the Coon Rapids Target now. I heard them say they had two cases. I only got one of the A.W.E. Strikers there due to some circumstances, but went to the Andover one and got the other two so I'm good now.

Hey guys,

If anybody sees the new TRU Senior ranking command sets, I'd really love it if someone could grab me the Hawk/Duke/Grunt one. I can come to you for pickup and payment. I also may have some MOC Joes for trade.

Okay, Never mind. I found the 1 Joe and 1 Cobra Senior officer set today at Bloomington TRU. No Crimson Guard sets though.

Northtown Toys R Us had all three of the exclusive Senior officers sets today. XD Got there this morning and they were finishing stocking the aisles.

I got a Crimson officer set and one of the Joe officer sets. There was one of both of those left as well as two of the Cobra officer sets left on the shelf when I left.

Anybody seen any more TRU officer sets lately?

I'm still looking for an extra Joe set and 1-2 CG sets

Nobody near St Cloud?

I found my CG TRU set and extra Joe TRU set today at Bloomington TRU. None left of those, but I stashed the 1 remaining Cobra Officers set in the Star Wars overstock, opposite the Joes. It's back in there a bit, but you should still be able to see it.

Anybody seeing any more wave 6 at all anywhere? I only came across it twice at Wal-Marts and that was a while ago. I missed Torpedo both times. Local stores have not been stocking the single carded figures for jack squat over the last month and a half.

Hey, MN collectors. I've lurked long enough...time to contribute!

For me, it's been pretty quiet in the Bloomington/Edina/Richfield area. Wave 6 showed up at the 494/Portland Walmart a few weeks ago a couple of times, but it's been slim pickings since.

As far as I can tell, none of the Targets in the area have put out the exclusives yet (and it doesn't look like they've modified any of the register endcaps for the Joe or Star Wars exclusives, either - I'm hoping I'll see something this Sunday).

And ENEMY, I found your stashed Cobra set at TRU - but I'm only looking for the Grunt set. I've missed it twice in the last week! Throw that set into the overstock if you see it again; I'll definitely get it! :)

I was at the Burnsville TRU about two hours ago. They had several of the Grunt set along with the Cobra sets.

Had a bit of luck this weekend. Southtown Target finally put out the vehicles Sunday morning. I just picked up the Grand Slam pack. Both of the Super Targets in the area (Edina and Richfield) still haven't placed the exclusives on the floor. I find it a bit odd.

I did find a Rock & Roll - the first time I've seen this wave at a Target.

Finally, thanks to Viking; I found my Grunt set at the Burnsville TRU! I'm still looking for one more for a friend (it's a terrible set, though), but I'm happy to get mine!

Anyone see a hiss-tank yet? If someone can grab me one, thats the only vehicle I would like to own.

I have either trades or cash. I'd appreciate it!

Hey I'm from Fargo and if you live near there go to the Target on 13th, they will sell you the exclusives out of the back. They are not set yet so you wont find them on the shelf.... That could change soon though. There should be 6 of each joe vehicle and 4 HISS Tanks left.

I stopped at two Targets yesterday, Roseville and Lino-Lakes, Roseville had 1 Grand-slam pack, but the Lino-Lakes had a full end-cap of the vehicles.

Also - I've been having great luck with the Maplewood K-mart... probably becuase its the Maplewood K-Mart and who wants to go there?!? I was there a few weeks ago and they still had a bunch of the 5-Packs and all the Wave 3 Comic-packs. Like I said that was a couple weeks ago.. but still worth checking out if you're in a hunt.

If anyone needs Flash or Crimson Guard figures then you may want to stop at the Blaine K-Mart. They have a lot of them. Also, they have wave 3 comic packs.

Good to see more wave 6 finally show up. Targets seem to be all putting it out now. I found a Torpedo today at the old Apple Valley store. They still had a Rock N Roll if anybody's looking for him. There is little love for him because I have seen him every time I have found wave 6 (five times) but I have only found Torpedo and Armored CC once each.

EP Walmart has wave 4 in

Just got back from the Shakopee Target off of Hwy 169 and Marschall. They have the exclusive vehicles out. They are at the checkout lanes on an endcap in front of register 2. I picked up a Night Spectre and an AWE Striker. I was the first person to buy something from that display. They still had ten vehicles available when I left. There are also some Transformer and Star Wars exclusives on that endcap.

The Burnsville Super Target also has the exclusives by the checkout lanes. They are in front of lane 6.

No wave 7 to report yet, but TRU in Burnsville had the wave 2 repacks come in. I picked up a fixed crotch Snake Eyes with Timber. They still had two Storm Shadows when I left. I am guessing other TRUs have this wave or will be getting it soon. They also had the Senior officers set if anybody is still looking.

w7 at riverdale wm this morning.

Roseville Target had about 6 vehicles (2 of each) and the wave 1 comic packs... but thats it... OHHHhhhh I hope wave 7 shows up soon! Also looking for a wave 6 Rock'n'Roll again... We moved to a new house in South St.Paul this weekend and when I set him up on his new shelf his dadgum arm broke off at the elbow in posing! LAME! - At least my new home office has a desk/workbench for repair and customization that I've dubbed the "Joe V.A.". :)

w7 at riverdale wm this morning.

Hey! Thanks for letting us know here that they're finally out in Minnesota. I got there and all the troop builders were gone (Vipers and HISS tank drivers) as well as Duke, but had like four Snake Eyes, two Will Bills, and two Spirits. I got one of each of them. Now I just need to get a couple HISS tank drivers and Vipers and I'll be set.

Nice to know that some newer figures are finally showing up at Target. The two stores here in St. Cloud haven't had anything new on the pegs for a few weeks now.

Keith

I'm itching for a Wave 7 Snake eyes! If someone can grab one for me, I can meet up or pay for shipping. I'm in Minneapolis.

I figured wave 7 would hit today or tomorrow. I checked Apple Valley, Bloomington and West St Paul Wal Marts and found wave 4 and parts of wave 6 at each.

The other Wal-Marts will probably get them tonight. I also stopped at Elk River and Maple Grove WMs but they didn't have any yet or were sold out.

Targets in Brooklyn Park and Riverdale didn't have anything new or refilled. I imagine some Targets may have w7 tomorrow since they didn't have them today.

I stopped at Blaine TRU this moring and picked up all three 3-packs. This was the first time I've seen all three. I also bought a fixed v2 Snake Eyes there but I had to ask them for service to get it. They didn't have much on the pegs so I asked a clerk if they had any more single packs in back and he said everythings on the floor. Then I asked him to look them up on the computer to see and he had to get a manager involved for permission. The manager basically refused to look in back at first even though the computer said they had 2 cases in back. After I showed her the empty spots where a case would fit she reluctantly went to back to get them. They weren't busy and I was one of the only ones shopping there but they had better things to do then customer service. I almost regret giving them my money today after that. I spend a lot of money at that store but they aren't very friendly; at least the people working today.

That sucks when you get crappy customer service. You want to give them your money and they give you a nasty look. Jerks, especially since they needed to fill the pegs anyway. At least you got the Snake Eyes.
I am guessing the stores I checked will have wave 7 in tonight/tomorrow morning. I'll probably check some of the nearby 24 hour stores overnight. I want some of the new Indiana Jones stuff and a Joker from the Dark Knight also. Hopefully they put those out.

No Wave 7 at Eagan Walmart overnight. Bloomington Walmart = nothing this morning.

Called Maple Grove Walmart; no singles except for hooded CC and Cobra Trooper.

Wave 7 will probably trickle out gradually to Walmarts over the next couple of weeks, followed shortly by Targets. That's usually been my experience, anyway...

I went to that Eagan store last night and saw a GI Joe case on a pallet. I got excited and grabbed it, but then I saw that it was the comic packs. I left with blue balls. I also went to the Shakopee and Apple Valley stores and found nothing. Probably a good thing, though, because I ended up buying about $100 in Indiana Jones stuff at Target this morning.

Which Target had the Indy stuff?

West St Paul Target had the wave 1 Raiders figures, deluxes, Adventure Heroes, 12 inchers and vehicles out. Inver Grove Heights Wally World had some of the Raiders figures and some Crystal Skull figures. The army builders were gone. No sign of the woman, either. I forgot her name. They had all of the Dark Knight figures out also. I picked up a Joker. It's creepy looking, and it is even creepier considering Heath Ledger is no longer with us. No wave 7 Joes there or at West St Paul WM, BTW. The Apple Valley Wally World also had the Indy stuff sitting in the boxes in the aisle but had not yet put it on the pegs when I was there. They also had Hulk and some Dark Knight stuff, but no Joker or Scarecrow.

Over at Jedidefender.com someone found w7 at Apple Valley WM on Thursday. If anyone is into Star Wars or Minnesota sightings you may want to join their forums. Very active sightings board.

I've been wondering... Is Apple Valley and Eagan Walmart the same place?

EDIT: Ah... never mind. Different places. :)

I think most WM stores received w7 but may have the product on the pallets with the street date movie toys. This may be why they aren't out if they haven't put out their Indy, Hulk and Batman toys. Or maybe not?

I stopped at the Riverdale store again last night after work and they had put out 1 more case of w7. All the cards were damaged from shipping and a few even had loose bubbles.

Dang, Arctic Ackbar found the wave 7 at the Apple Valley store? I guess they didn't have all the pallets out when I was there. Oh well, I'll come across it again. I am registered at JD as John C, my real name. I just have not gone there in a while because I am pretty much done with Star Wars right now unless they put out more of the Vintage collection style figures. A Cloud Car and the Death Star would also bring me back. :)

You found more at the Riverdale one!? Dang it. I just need a couple HISS drivers and Vipers here and I'm done with the wave. I finally found Indy toys at the Northtown Toys R Us today as well as the Batman and Hulk toys.

I actually went to Apple Valley last night and there was a whole case of Wave 7 on the pegs, except for Wild Bill for some reason. They even had a 2nd Viper.

So I now have 1 extra MOC Viper I'd be willing to trade for a Wild Bill.

I've been hitting local Targets in my area for a couple of weeks trying to score a set of vehicles, but no luck. Today I made the trek to Roseville and found a Night Spectre. They had a total of 4, but none of the others. This was on a register endcap as previously reported. The only single carded figures were were one hooded CC and one Wave 7 Duke, so evidence that they at least had Wave 7 briefly.

Growing tired of coming up empty on vehicles, I hit my local Target with the DCPI # (087060918) in hand and had a friendly staff member look it up. Surprisingly, she found that they had 4 cases in stock that had not been put out yet. She happily grabbed a case for me from the back and I was able to pull out the two I needed to complete my set. She had no idea why they weren't out yet, but I suspect it is because there isn't a free end cap to put them on yet. It's a fairly small Target.

In any case, I guess the moral of the story is, if you haven't seen the Target vehicles yet, be sure to have someone there lookup the DCPI as they might have them in the back waiting for you. Apologies if this is common knowledge already. Also, Cottage Grove Target has at least 3 more full cases. Not sure if they put them out on the shelves after I left tonight or not.

Well, I found in my searching today that of the three Targets in my area, ONE has re-stocked their shelves finally. The Northtown one, which had the leftovers of Wave 7 with a Wild Bill, Spirit, Duke with flag, and two Snake Eyes. No Vipers or HISS drivers...again. >_<;;

I'm finding lots of the last comics packs released as of late everywhere now though.

Guh. Went to the Northtown Target, and they had everything you said, EXCEPT for the Wild Bill, which is the only thing I'm missing. Are that many people buying extra WB's to customize their Ace? Why is this guy so tough? The Vipers and HISS Drivers I understand, but come ON...

My search for the latest wave has netted me nothing. Downtown and Richfield Targets (they haven't reset the action figures yet) as well as Bloomington Walmart were bare. Over the weekend I hit the Shakopee and Eden Prairie Walmarts...and nothing there, either. I'm not sure if I have bad timing or they just haven't put anything out yet, but the end result is the same. Shaane 0, Forces of Evil, 1.

If anyone has any luck in the southern metro, let us know!

Hey shaane, welcome to the boards.

There were a couple posts last page or two about some finds at Walmart Apple Valley. A poster on another board found a set of Wave 7, and I found a set a day or so later. Nothing was left after I got my set.

I've been watching Eagan Walmart pretty closely. Just Wave 4 on the pegs, but plenty of room for more. They've done there reset (including Indy and Dark Knight) but no new Joes.

I suspect that many Walmarts do have Wave 7, but haven't gotten around to putting them out.

Thanks, Enemy! I'll do my best to keep up the reports. Hopefully I'll have some good news...but until then...

Another round of evening searching, another round of failure. Richfield and Southtown Targets finally added Hulk and Indy toys but I didn't see any new Joes.

Bloomington Walmart was barren yet again (but they did add some new Batman figs, if anyone is interested). I did see another collector come cruising in right after me, on the hunt for Joes. While I don't like to judge (too much), it would have been cool if this guy was into personal grooming a little more than he was.

Bloomington TRU has a couple of the Cobra officers packs, but nothing else new.

That's all I have for now...

Dang it, I moved to South Saint Paul last month, and I swear... I have not seen a Joe since (except maybe the Hooded CC thats been hanging on the rack at the Roseville Target). I work in St. Paul in off Energy Park, and I usually stop on lunch or on my way home... but man... nothing. I used to live in Forest Lake and on my way home I'd pass about 6 or 7 Joe carrying stores and got everything (Minus 2 of the 5-packs) right off the shelf. This stinks.

The West St Paul Target is a decent place to find Joes, as is the nearby Walmart and the Inver Grove Heights Walmart, although I have not found wave 7 at any of those stores yet. I haven't been in the WSP K Mart in a while, but they had wave 5 the last time I was there.

I went to St. Cloud today but didn't see much at the stores. St. Cloud TRU, Shopkos, KM, WM and both Targets didn't have wave 7. Most of these stores had Cobra Soldiers, Officers and Crimson Guards. I picked up a silver Grand Slam set at the Waite Park Target.

Elk River WM and Target had nothing when I stopped on the way home.

Riverdale Target had nothing new today either.

Maybe more luck for all of us on Thursday.

Thats good to hear as those are all right in my back yard. I'm thinking my route home from work will now include a jog down Robert St.

Evidence of Wave 7 at Woodbury Target today. It was actually a strange site. There was the usual bare rack with only two single card figures hanging, however today both were Vipers! I grabbed one, so there is still one hanging there if anyone is in the area and still looking.

Nothing new at Cottage Grove, other than the fact that the size of the single card section has been reduced to two pegs from four to make room for Indy figures.

I found a lone wave 7 Snake Eyes this morning at Apple Valley Wal Mart.

I thought that I had struck gold this morning at Wal-Mart because four pegs were stuffed with figures, but none of them were from wave 7.

Not sure why, but none of the stores in the St. Cloud area have stocked that wave yet.

Keith

I found a lone wave 7 Snake Eyes this morning at Apple Valley Wal Mart.

Apple Valley WM seems to be one of the few WM's that actually run their toy dept well. The day after I got my Wave 7 set there, I decided to stop back. They had not restocked yet, but I spoke to a lady that seemed to be night toy dept manager. Stupidly, I didn't get her name, because she was VERY helpful. I think she was of East Indian decent and had glasses.

She happily got her scanner gun and was able to locate which stores had how many Joes. Again, no way of telling which waves. She said that Bloomington had 16 in stock, and West St Paul had 20. Now it's a safe assumption these were wave 7, since as we all know, those two WM's have had dick. This was last Saturday.

So Sunday morning I get up at 6am and check both of those stores. Just a couple old figs at West St Paul, and no one around to ask. At bloomington, they had the usual, Buzzer, Cobra Trooper, etc. There were two employees (again, suprisingly helpful) that got out their scanner and yes, it showed 16 in stock, and the West SP had 20. I asked if they could bring more out, and the employees seemed perplexed that they were not on the floor, but didn't seem to know how to get them. They told me to check back in a couple days (which I did) and of course there's nothing. Interestlingly, one of the Bloomington employees said their store has a huge problem with theft.

That leads me to think that A) many Joes are going out the back door, or B) Walmart has their heads up their posteriors and are holding Joes in back even though they've done their resets, I'm guessing by mistake.

Moral? Find a Walmart employee (preferably a manager) and ask them to check their stock. I'll bet that it will not match what's on the floor.

We need to get to the bottom of this. There is either stupidity or tomfoolery in play.

Saw 1 Wave 7 Snake-eyes and 1 Viper at St Anthony Walmart at closing time Sunday night.

Also got there for closing time of Bloomington WM (they close later) and they had all their new pallets out, but no Joes to be seen. They still, BTW, show 16 in stock with only 2 Buzzers on the pegs.

I went to Burnsville Target this morning and they had nothing new, so I decided to drive to the Apple Valley store off Cedar and Cty R 42. They must have had three cases on the pegs. The Enemy, I grabbed you a Wild Bill if you still need him.

After making a run up north this weekend and finding only some officers at the St. Cloud TRU and Wave 6 at the Brainerd Walmart, I finally hit gold this evening.

The Richfield Target was fully stocked with Wave 7. I also stopped at the downtown Target around noon- but nothing new there. I'm guessing they will stock up within a day or so.

Good luck, MN collectors!

Bloomington/Southtown Target also had wave 7 this evening.

Celtic Viking, a PM is en route!

Oh, I forgot to mention... my 3 Doc's came today! That's the good news.

The bad news is all 3 were totally beat up. The mailer boxes, clamshells, bubbles and cards. No packing materials whatsoever.

The figure, however, rules.

Finally found a trace of WAVE 7! West St. Paul Target. I don't mean to complain again.. becuase i'm very grateful I found my V3 Snake-Eyes. But I check Roseville Target on my lunch break, 2 Targets on the way home, West St. Paul K-Mart and Wal-Mart... every day... how do I always miss out?! I know they're getting them... do I just have to sleep at these stores too?

Pretty much unless you show up right after they open. There are a number of people who go to those WSP stores. A few I know of seem to be decent collectors who just buy a few things, but I also know of a few ebay scalper types that I used to love messing with. I'm guessing you have to be at work before 7? That kind of puts a damper on getting to those stores when they open. Plus, wave 7 is new and people are going to wipe it out when they see it. It'll be easier to find in a few weeks like all the other waves IMO. I can pick up stuff for you if I see it again. LMK what you're looking for.
The Enemy, good to hear your Docs showed up. I have two on the way. That sucks about the clamshells.

just got back from lunch and Roseville Target was fully stocked! (although it looks like I got the last Hiss Driver). They had at least 5 or 6 Vipers and multiples of the others. As tempting both scalping and/or troop building could be... I left them for the next frustrated hunter. Also... my old friend Hooded CC was finally gone! Also, thanks for the offer CV - I'll let you know in the future!

Target in East St. Paul (1744 Suburban) had what looked to be 2 full cases of Wave 7 on the pegs this afternoon. I picked up a Wild Bill, HISS Driver and Spirit.

I bought a Viper and a HISS Driver at the Champlin Target on Tuesday night. I also bought another 1989 Snake Eyes because he looks cool and I may start a small army build with these as some Night Ops Cobra figures/Night Creepers. I left behind the flag Duke and Wild Bill. Someone else bought the Spirit, 2nd Viper and 2nd Snake Eyes.

I also stopped at the Maple Grove Target for the first time in about 2 months and they still only had a ton of hooded Cobra Commanders. That's it and I'm going to stop going to that store because they never have anything except those and some Duke/Scarlett packs.

Maple Grove WM had a flag Duke and some Cobra Viper Pilots.

I wonder if somebody went around to Targets and bought up the hooded CC only to dump them at the Maple Grove store.

Northtown Target had 1 of each of the Wave 7 figures when I went today. I don't need them now since I broke down and bought online. T_T But they had everyone...oh, they did have 2 Vipers and 2 Snake Eyes actually as well as 1 of everyone else.

What the heck is going on here in St. Cloud? The two Target stores have not gotten anything new in many weeks now and nobody else in the area (K-Mart, Wal-Mart, Toys R' Us, Shopko) has stocked wave 7 yet.

I feel like I am living in Siberia.

Wave 8 at Maple Grove WM at midnight. Before finding them there I stopped at Riverdale and Brooklyn Park and they did not have them. BP still had everything on truck.

Wave 8 at Maple Grove WM at midnight. Before finding them there I stopped at Riverdale and Brooklyn Park and they did not have them. BP still had everything on truck.

Anything left at Maple Grove from Wave 8, or did you get the last ones?

I bought a full set and an extra Python Officer. They had 3 cases of w8 and one of w7. The w7 were glossy silver cardbacks. I saw glossy and dull silver Major Bludd cardbacks. They don't last long at MG WM but they may have some left.

I would try Brooklyn Park in the morning since they hadn't unloaded there truck as of midnight. I'm not sure why that is but they didn't have any pallets of product on the floor like usual and the truck was sitting out front of the store. I would imagine they will have them in the morning because when MG has them they usually do too.

The Python Officer is awesome. They finally fixed the crotch/hip articulation so the figure can sit and pose more properly. Also, they enlarged the Cobra sigil on the chest and now that looks a lot better. I really really hope they take these new changes and finally release the red sigil Cobra Soldier in mass because that's what I've been waiting for since the 5-Pack came out last August.

The Arctic Snake Eyes is very cool and looks awesome with all the cool accessories. However, the back of his hood interferes with the backpack fitting properly in the backpack hole.

Major Bludd is very cool and well designed. I can't tell he's Zartan with a new head and paint job. The only problem with this figure are the missle in the backpack which are removable. They keep falling off the backpack. I ended up flipping the backpack 180 degrees so they have gravity holding them in. Very frustratiing like the Viper goggles.

The Baroness is cool. Holds her gun well and stands well.

Roadblock is cool accept for the tiny Charles Barkley head. He holds his weapon very well.

TF Flint is cool but his hands are very rubbery and he has a hell of time holding his gun with both hands or even one handed sometimes.

I haven't opened the w8 Cobra Commander v1 but he looks improved. He's a darker blue, his sigil is larger and his crotch/hip articulation/diaper may have been adjusted a little.

I saw both a super glossy silver Major Bludd card and a dull silver card. Also, they had a case of w7 with glossy silver Viper cardback and HISS Driver cardback. I bought those 2 and didn't notice this until I got home. I'm not sure if the rest of w7 in that case had the super glossy silver cardbacks but I bet they did. So if anyone needs those type cardbacks you may want to keep an eye out. I actually like the new white lettering and border a lot better because they can keep it consitent and not have different shades of silver.

Thanks for the sighting Spider! I actually went out last night and found everything still there except for your Python Troopers.

So if anybody sees extra Pythons, I'm looking to acquire 1 or 2.

Sucks about the different Bludd cardbacks. Mine's silver, and I'm sure that one will be rare. Too bad I opened him.

I'm personally very disappointed in Bludd. No removable helmet, lame facial sculpt, and his robot arm is a full hand shorter than his regular one.

You're right about CC. His waist is fixed so he can sit. But they only changed it subtley, which I appreciate. My Baroness waist is fixed also - a major improvement!

Wave 8 at Maple Grove WM at midnight. Before finding them there I stopped at Riverdale and Brooklyn Park and they did not have them. BP still had everything on truck.

What the deuce! I stopped by the maple grove yesterday at about 5pm and saw bare pegs, what a waste of gas. Some other guy came looking through with a disappointed look. >.<

Man, I went out to the usual areas I go to and found nothing. All I really want is a TF Flint and Roadblock really as I already got ahold of a Major Bludd online.

damn got jack in western MN. like a peg warmer or 2 from wave 5 is all makes me want cry seeing these. i need wave 7 & 8 comic pac wave 4 too

Apple Valley WalMart had waves 7 and 8 today. I grabbed one Baroness, Flint, Snakes and the Python Patrol guy. No Bludd to be seen. Either somebody got them before I did, in which case I hope it was one of you guys or Arctic Ackbar from JD, or the store didn't put them out yet.

Any wave 8 left after you got your stuff?

Like, specifically, the Python guy?

They had one PP Officer, no Bludds, 2 COBRA Commanders, 2 Flints, 1 Roadblock, 1 Baroness and 2 Snake Eyes when I was there. Also had a few of the Vipers with and without the silver foil.

WSP Wal-Mart had Wave 7 and 8 tonight, after I picked through it and got one of each I think there was a Baroness left, and in hindsight I left a CC there... basically I forgot he was a new one... meh... I'll find him someday. I also picked up an extra viper with the 25th Logo if any one wants it. Don't really know why I got it.

Bloomington and Eagan Walmarts had remnants of Wave 8 tonight. CC and Roadblock seem to be the pegwarmers.

Apple Valley WM got another case of Wave 8 tonight. I grabbed the Python Officer for myself and Major Bludd for Celtic Viking.

This is sort of random - But Maplewood TRU - is that the worst place to find Joes in Minnesota, or am I just crazy. It seems like they only have a tiny side/endcap with 3 pegs for comic packs and 3 pegs for Single Cards... populated by Serpentor. Did anyone find the exclusives there? and if so... where the heck were they located?!?

Riverdale WM had w7 and w8 this morning. I picked up Python and Hiss Driver. Vipers were gone already.

I picked up the remnants of the remnants at the Bloomington and AV Walmarts this morning. I'm talking Roadblock at Bloomington and Arctic SE at AV. AV also had Flint, Baroness and CC...but not Bludd (the one figure I really wanted from the line...sob...)

Both stores had complete wave 7, so maybe we're starting to see some more saturation with that one.

If anyone finds the Major in the south metro, let me know! I'll head out immediately and track him down...good luck, everyone!

Shaane, The Enemy has extra Bludd that he picked up for me. I was able to get mine from someone else. He'll probably get it to you if he still has it.

Did a little hunting this morning and didn't find anything new. I stopped at Riverdale WM and Target, Champlin Target, Brooklyn Park WM and Blaine TRU. I found nothing and really wasted some time. I thought Target would have the new wave 4 comic packs or singles but nothing. Maybe tomorrow for Targets that get trucks Saturday night into Sunday.

I also stopped at the Blaine Marshalls store because I heard that retail chain has had the 5-Packs for $12 but nothing there.

The Brooklyn Park Target had remnants of 2 cases of the latest revision cases. Nothing worth buying but they had Zartan, Flag Duke, V1 Cobra Commander and V1 Snakes Eyes. Also, saw this wave at the Riverdale WM on Saturday but they were picked over. I didn't stop at the Blaine TRU today, but they had some of the Night Watch and Ninja sets in stock on Sunday.

Hopefully, wave 9 BATs and Snow Serpents hit by the end of June or sooner.

Anybody seen the new comic packs around? I'm looking for the Copperhead/Shipwreck, as the set I got from BBTS had a broken Copperhead.

I have not seen the wave4 comic packs yet either... but i assume they will be warming pegs throughout the twincities soon enough.

_edit_

This afternoon I found the Fire Fly/SS and Copperhead/Shippy packs at West St.Paul Target - Also got an Extra AWE Striker and Night Specter on clearance for $6.48

Nothing at Riverdale Target or Champlin Target today. Nothing at Riverdale WM yesterday.

No sign of Copperhead wave yet.

Wow. Minnesota's been kinda dead lately. I did find the Copperhead wave at the K-Mart across from Northtown recently even though I resorted to buying online.

Stil no sign of the new vehicles or Wave 9 though anywhere.

Finally found some Comic Pack Wave 4 leftovers at the downtown Target.

What I found:

2 Storm Shadow packs (pass) and 1 Copperhead pack (I'll take that, thank you!) No Red Star to be seen.

A "friend on the inside" has notified me that there should be Wave 4 comic packs on the pegs at the Richfield Target as of this morning. If any of you have the time, head on over and take a look...

Has anyone found wave 9 or the new vehicles?

I have not seen jack down here in sothern MN very little wave 8 no 9 and no vehicles. Targets have gotten nothing in months! Nothing at K-Mart, Just a whole lot of nothing!!!!!!!

Checked the Anoka and Coon Rapids stores for wave 9 and vehicles without luck over the past few days. Saw a ton of Night Watch and Ninja sets at the Blaine TRU today. They also had some of the 3 packs.

I found wave 9 at the Eden Prairie Center Target this morning before work. They had one case on the pegs. They also had wave 4 comic packs. I picked up one each of Hawk, the BAT, BBQ, Snow Serpent and Bazooka. I left the Storm Shadow repaint and the repacks behind.

Saw 3 pegs full of joes at Maple Grove Walmart. I believe they were all Wave 9s with a few Torpedos here and there.

Anyway, I don't collect Joes anymore but if anyone spots 1:12 Maisto Kawasaki Motorcycles during their stops at walmarts, I'd appreciate a notice my way.

Found Snow Serpent, BATS, and G. Hawk today at a Walmart in Mankato everything else was gone. Looks like it could have been two or three cases. No wave 4 comic packs or vehicles. I just wish they were not so expensive got to be a dozen vipers hanging but at almost $7 it is just to expensive to troop build. If any body is in need of some past waves I might be able to help just let me know what you are looking for. Lots of peg warmers!! It would be cost plus shipping.

Later fellas

Found and bought 1 full set of wave 9 at SLP Target on 36th st yesterday afternoon.

I found Wave 9 at the Northtown Target. Well, everyone but the troop builders. (Snow Serpent and B.A.T.) >_<

Thank you. Went there and got Wild Bill, Bazooka, Hawk, Barbecue and Storm Shadow. They only had 1 of each. There is a LT. Torpedo and Serpentor remaining.

I found a lone Bazooka on the shelf at the Andover Target, but struck gold at the Coon Rapids Target in the form of the first two DVD Battle Packs. Only thing is...I had to get someone to get them from the back.

I got the DCPI number off the topic posted on this site and checked it out at both the Andover and Coon Rapids Targets. Andover has none, but as mentioned Coon Rapids does have some in the stockroom.
I managed to track down a cute girl away from toys and asked her to check on the number for me as well. She said they had four in the stockroom. I'm not sure if she meant four cases, but that would be what I guessed and she then went and got me one of each (as I only want one of each of course)

Anyway, the DVD packs are in Minnesota, just not on display yet.

I hit Targets in: Edina, Richfield, and Bloomington as well as the Bloomington Walmart over lunch. None of the Targets have begun their figure aisle reset, and all of them were pretty much barren with the exception of Edina. They had one lone Wild Bill (on new card) and someone put out a case of Clone Wars figures. I'm not sure if you'll be able to buy them, but they are there if you care to try.

Overall, I'm bummed by the lack of available product. When it does all hit hard, it's going to be expensive...

Today I've hit the Richfield Target (nadda), Eagan Target (DVD packs - 2 Mass, 1 Weather left), AV Walmart (wave 8 leftovers - boo!), and AV Target (only one Hiss Tank...the only vehicle set I wasn't interested in - bummer). So it wasn't a complete strikeout. Hopefully, this week we'll see the new Joe stuff in greater quantities!

EP Walmart has wave 7

Evidence of the Coon Rapids Target having the Wave 1 vehicles as there was a lone Armadillo vs. Air Chariot on the shelf despite no tags. Scanning the UPC stated that they had them in the stockroom though with the one on the shelf being out it makes me wonder on that. All I need to find is the black HISS tank.

Also Northtown Target has set up the figure aisle for the vehicles, DVD sets, and other stuff, just no product yet.

Stopped at the Riverdale Target after work today and had someone pull the remaining 3 vehicles from the back.

Stopped at the Riverdale Target after work today and had someone pull the remaining 3 vehicles from the back.

Gah! They had them all still!? Dang it. I thought with the one sitting on the shelf that they had probably put them out or something and were already bought up despite the scanner saying in the stockroom.
I thought about asking someone about it to get the HISS tank myself, but after I had already done that not even a week ago for the G.I.Joe DVD packs not even a week ago I had better not...don't want to get profiled. O_o

Heck, they have the Transformers Animated Leader class figures in their stockroom, too. I just needs me a Leader class Megatron. >_<;;

(Repeated from another forum...but I'm lazy, sorry!)

I'm slowly having Joe success. I hit the downtown, Richfield, Edina, Bloomington Targets. Bloomingtion and Edina had DVD packs. Edina also had one Hiss, one Bubble, one Serpentor Chariot set. No VAMP. I picked up the bubble...and while I really wanted to get the other set with "Steeler," I couldn't bring myself to getting it today. Let's be honest, it's a terrible attempt at the figure. It could be anyone. Let's hope they give it a better try somewhere down the line (and I'm talking the tan version in the upcoming battle pack!)

Still, no wave 9. Are they waiting to put these out with the Friday night reset?

Okay, went out today to three different Target stores... Coon Rapids, Northtown, and Andover. They all had their action figure aisles reset for the new Star Wars stuff and I found the following at the three...

Coon Rapids: Still had TONS of Vipers on the shelf obviously no vehicles or DVD packs for reasons mentioned above.

Northtown: Had the DVD packs out as well as a VAMP and the Armadillo/Air Chariot, no RAM/Flight Pod or black HISS tank.

Andover: Same as the Northtown one.

If anyone finds a black HISS tank I don't suppose they'd be willing to help a fellow Minnesotan out, could they? That's the only vehicle I'm missing.

maple grove target has 2 hiss in aisle opposite the joe figures below the tmnt.

Went to Blaine (HWY 65) and Fridley target. Both have DVD packs, Armadillo/Chariot & Vamp. Fridley target also had 1 Hiss and 1 Ram/Flight pod. I bought both. If I find another Hiss, I'll pick it up for you.

Northtown TRU had a 25th logo Wild Bill. I bought it.

St Anthony Walmart has zip.

Cottage Grove Target this morning had 2 each of the DVD Battle Packs. Also, 1 VAMP and 1 Armadillo/Air Chariot.

Did anybody manage to get an extra SDCC Cobra Commander? I had no idea they were going on HTS today.

I'll pay $20 for either version.

EP Target has vehicles and EP walmart has wave 7

westren MN has the DVDs and new vehicles also the 12in figs but never any wave 9 or any comic packs above wave 3.

is wave 9 real? lol

cobra!!

oh yea EP Target has the 12"s

Every day I go to the same Target on my lunch break, I rarely find anything except the same two Cobra Commanders, and every day I go in there and stare at the empty shelves and pegs i die a little. Then I glance over to the guys working in electronics and they just shrug their shoulders as if to say "sorry man, you missed 'em again" ... sigh.

I know your pain all to well my fiend, and to think we keep going in hope that one day we just might find something. I never found wave 4 comic packs now 5 is out. Found one snow serp, Hawk, and a bat about 2 weeks ago.

The Champlin Target finally restocked their GI Joe figures on Saturday. I bought 2 BATs, 2 Snow Serpents and the 2 Iron Grenadiers they had. I don't go to this store more than a few times a week but usually I only see a lone figure and the same Scarlett/Hawk packs.

Riverdale Target still was a wasteland this morning. Just some Hooded CCs and Vipers warming the pegs with Scarlett/Hawk packs. Always the case with that store.

Riverdale WM had wave 9 this morning but someone else lucked out on the 2 BATs and 2 Snow Serpents they had.

WM St Anthony has New Comic Packs: NE vs. Fal x3 and CC vs. TW x4. They also have Hiss x2, Vamp x2, and Serp vs. Arm x2. There is one Hiss tank hidden on the lower shelf behind Corps vehicles. The new Comic Packs are behind older ones.

Target Fridley has 4 DVD sets, 2 of each.

By the end of last week I found Wave 5 of the Comic Packs (no black mask) at the Roseville Target. They also had pickins of Wave 9 (Hawk, BBQ, Bazooka) But I just traded for those figs so I left 'em.
Also pivked up the 4 Vehicle Sets at Wal-Mart West St Paul, as well as the DVD Sets. Now just looking for Bats and Snow Serpent. ...also any TRU's out there with any of the TRU 5-packs? I've yet to pick any of those up... but theres no good TRUs for me to stop at without making a specific trip.

wow, just found this thread, so here' where the competition comes from?? j/k so the new comic pks are out, ill have to get out and do some hunting i see, that WM in st anthony sucks, they didnt even have any of the star wars stuff out as of last friday

We are not competition... we are... a brotherhood... a fraternity if you will, of like minded man children. In time you will be able to join our illustrious ranks, however--- before you can be allowed to pledge to join us, you must complete the following tasks.

1. Bring me 1 B.A.T. and 1 Snow Serpent
2. You must tame a wild Kota
3. Deliver the head of Bolo

Then, only then may you join.

Stopped at the Blaine TRU this afternoon and they had a couple HISS tanks. The usual wave 9 Torpedo and Wild Bill and other Buzzer type pegwarmers. No sign of the new 5-Packs at that store.

Found a BAT and Snow Serpent at the Andover Target this morning. No new stock of wave 9 at Blaine, Champlin or Riverdale. Saw wave 2 of the 12 inch figures. Almost bought the Torpedo.

Roseville Target was stocking the toy section on my daily Lunch Trip. Vehicles(1 of each), DVD packs (2 of each) and most of Wave 9 --- however there were no BATS or Snow Serpy's :(

Still had a Bazooka, two Hawks, and the usual other stuff at Riverdale Wal-mart.

Say has anyone seen the Marvel Legends two-packs in their search for new Joes?

I have yet to see them anywhere and I really want a couple of them.

i saw one at the west st paul WM forgot which figs they were but they're right underneath the Joes

Just wondering if anyone's spotted any of the new TRU (CG squad) exclusives at the Blaine or Bloomington stores?

I haven't seen anything earth shattering lately that hasn't already been posted, but it does seem that the Target's around me have restocked at least twice in the last week or so. Mainly just the last wave of Joes, but I have been able to grab a bunch of HISS drivers for all my tanks.

My main route between home and work take me by the Brooklyn Center, Maple Grove, Rogers, and Elk River stores. I occasionally jaunt out to Coon Rapids/Andover or over to Monticello. So now that I finally joined the "Tank" I'll give you guys a shout if I spot anything interesting. Later.

After making daily runs to numerous Targets and Walmarts in the southern metro for the last week (I'd guess 15 or more trips to various Targets, actually,) I finally found a B.A.T. at the Richfield Target this morning. They had one set of the rest of the latest wave of figs along with the usual DVD packs.

The Bloomington Walmart had one Enforcer/Falcon comic back as of this morning...which was left over from Saturday. I've yet to see the new Destro pack, but I'm hoping it shows up in greater numbers soon (along with the other packs in the wave.)
