Not dead but starting to order some things on eBay... IE Drones for IM2 that are so f'ing rare in the wild while there are 30-40 Mk III, MK IV, and MK VI on the shelves. It runs hot and colt lately sometimes you'll look at there will be one good buy but too often these days the shelfs on the West Side of the Detroit burbs are either 1. Barren or 2. Peg Warmer deluxe edition

The POC search has largely been good except the lack of Alley Vipers(already have mine) however everything else - total garbage.

I didn't die just got busy with my single life. Found the Wave 11 up in Marquette in September except for Ghost Rider. Been waiting patiently for Meijers to get the Black Widow wave and the X-Men wave so I can fill in my gaps. Ive got great faith in them because I was able to snag 2010 Wave 1 last month. Now Marvel just needs to release the Warpath and Vision variants.

Me? Not so lucky. Ann Arbor Marshalls had HoH, first time I've ever seen them in the wild.
They had Commando SE, SS, Beachhead, Zartan and Flint, no Bats or Vipers, gold or otherwise.
They also had a crap load of ROC, nothing worth mentioning except a Jungle Ripchord.
I scoped out the TRU next to it looking for some half off Bravos. No luck there either, Just Gunships, only POC figure they had has a Dusty.

I also a bunch of Rise of Cobras which I dont collect but their there. Single Figures (non ROC) were 2-3 dollers. Vehicles we 12.99. 2 packs were 6.99.

Tj maxx in farmington hills.
I saw some more 2 pack comics, including a cobra commander/gung ho. I saw some Firebat Jet with A.V.A.C. and some Sharc Tooth with Deep Six. I saw some more duke tiger force, Croc masters and cobra paratroopers. They Had a bunch of Rise of cobra small vehicles on clearance for $7.00. Including Mole Pod with Terra-Viper and a few others.

Annnd here's the rundown

TRU - Livonia: A decent cross section of Wave 2 POC, some varied ROC as you'll likely find anywhere. No W2 POC Vehicles. Overall I could have found something to buy here if I wanted to.

TRU - Novi: Very little in general. Almost nothing on the Pegs for GI Joe and vehicles. I think they may have 1-2 Wolfhound dealieos but nothing really interesting

TRU Express - Farmington Hills: I saw nothing - not one thing with a GI Joe logo on it.

TRU Southfield - Same situation as Novi. Nothing much left here.

If you're looking to pick up 2 or 3 or 500 early wave Iron Man figures you're covered though.

TJ Maxx Downtown Farmington - Decent selection here of the comic packs and some later era single figs from the 25th era and a light smattering of ROC. I picked up a CC/GH 2 Pack as I hadn't done so yet.

TJ Maxx Farmington Orchard Lake - Fairly similar to the above but also had all of HOH except Storm Shadow and Firefly, was hoping to pick up a SS but hey picked up an SE which I was looking for as well.

Marshalls Novi - Nothing really of note here, they had a smattering of single card ROC and 25th but nothing in enough numbers to note. some comic packs too

WalMart Livonia 7 Mile - GI Joe had a reasonable assortment of Wave 2 POC but nothing that I had to have.

So decent set of trips today and may try a few other places tomorrow but overall I think my most success will be on ebay.

As a note - WalMart Livonia on 7 Mile had some of the newer Iron Man II waves hanging out but no drones - did see a Silver Centurion for the first time in the wild. Have still never seen a single carded drone in the wild, glad I got mine thru ebay and am not still searching the street for those.

Yeah I mean I hit the Livonia Target today after a Depot run for a new Shovel and absolutely obliterated - nothing there. Seriously it is tough to sell product if you have no product and that's what we've been dealing with in Michigan all year.

I got lucky and found Wave 1 in entirety at Target on the day of release but haven't seen a single AV since that time. Wave 2 I found at the Target on 5 Mile and have never seen anything resembling a Wave 2 vehicle yet anywhere.

It really does feel like Michigan is the end of the line for receiving every wave lately. Overall though Hasbro distribution has been exceptionally odd for GI Joe and Iron Man. GI Joe feels like more of a limited run every time with even normal figures being chase collectibles and then the Iron Man line is a total disaster of oversaturation of the first waves. There's just no happy medium and so we're ending up with one line where the wanted figs are lasting 1 day and there's nothing else another where the wanted figs are lasting 1 day but there's a 100-200 day backlog of original wave on the shelf.

I don't know if anyone can say they're happy with how the stock has come in/gone out of this state this year.

Hopefully 11' is more fruitful but I suppose BBTS and ebay sellers have appreciated my business since the locals have been terrible.

My Kmart has some Night Ravens and the standard roc figures. I got one of my packages from HTS last night. Snake eyes v8, I got one to open and one to leave on card. They came in a not so well padded envelope, one looked like the bubble had been sanded, the other was slightly creased. I opened the worse of the 2. What a great figure, no joke. He comes with two silencers, one for the uzi and one for one of the pistols, also a spot to tuck the silencer when the pistol is holstered. Pick this one up you wont be dissapointed.

Checked the new Wal-Mart in Canton on Mich. Ave. this afternoon and found a full set of POC Wave 1. Finally got a Cobra Commander, Firefly, Snow Job and an Alley Viper. No new vehicles though. They have 4 or 5 Jungle Vipers left if anyone needs more.

Who bought the other AWE Striker at Meijer in Utica!? haha. They've still got Ice-Cutters. Toys R Us by Lakeside mall in Sterling Heights had what seemed to be at least 2 fresh cases of POC Wave 1 as of 5pm today. I grabbed 1 Alley-Viper and left the other. They also had a few of Firefly and 1 Cobra Commander. They must've recently put out a wave 2 case also, they had everyone but Recondo (MAYBE they did but I didn't notice).

QUESTION: Has anyone seen a Fury (Rage) or VAMP out in the wild yet?

I have not, I haven't seen the Ice Cutter or the AWE either.

I did check out 2 Wal Marts today, the skanky one in Ypsi had nothing but a single Desert SS.
However the one in Saline had a whole bunch of Wave 1 & 2!
They had everybody (even Firefly & CC), I grabbed the 3 AV's they had and left the rest.

Belleville Walmart had tons of POC wave 1 & 2, only thing i didnt see was a Snow Job. I finally got A Red card Cobra Commander.

Walmart at Michigan Ave in canton was just as Crimson Guard described above, lots of first wave and 2 wave,

Tj Maxx in Farmington Hills on orchard lake Rd. across from best buy. Had a bunch of hall of heroes!!!! I got 5 thru 10 and still had plenty. Their up front on a table close to the check out,

The Borders next to TJ maxx is going out of business and i picked up GI joe 1960-1994 Collectors book for half off! Lots of DVDS and Blu Rays 40/50% off

The Marshalls in the same plaza had nada, dont waste your time.

Tons of TRON here too. Just got back from a lunch trip to TRU Westland. Scored an Alley Viper, left a red card CC, also alot of Spirits and QKs, a Jungle Viper, Beachhead, snow Destro, Dusty and that was about it. For the MU guys, they had SpiderChick, Modular IM, Thor, Captain America old shield, and War Hulk (or something to that effect) also a Spiderman 2099.

Sorry, I didn't get this up sooner (bad choice of words :/ ) Anyway, As of around 6am this morning (I'm sure they're still there), Meijer at Mound Rd and 12 Mile in Warren had a few POC Awe Strikers and Ice Cutters, they are $14.99 each ($3 cheaper than TRU), BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE! (Always wanted to say that)
Go to the shelf in the main entrance where the Meijer ads are. There's a coupon for $3 off ANYTHING $14.99 and up!

Got my Ice Cutter this morning for $11.99, NOT BAD.

Well, while it's not Target Wave 3... I nabbed WW Hulk, Spiderman 2099, Spiderwoman and Captain Marvel for myself from a comic store in Ann Arbor for $10.99-$11.99 each. Not too bad of a price hike seeing most retail stores want $9 each now, saves me the hunt/shipping. Also grabbed GI Joe: Cobra 11, the first issue of the Mindless Self Indulgence comic and Issue 10 of Kevin Smith's Green Hornet.

Doc Sampson + the new Iron Man figure. Found both in Toledo at a Toys R Us. Awesome. The two I didn't get at the comic store because I thought I could find them retail, AND I DID! Also, Andersons had 75% off their toys since they only stock them seasonally... Rise of Cobra figures for $1.25 each. Bought *everything* they had except two Storm Shadows.
