I was "lucky" the other day. i got to go on a great toy route on the way to and from work. i went to 7 different stores in this hunt and all for nothing. i have included pics of what my eyes beheld. i must say, the toy shipments must pass on through this area because i have seen nothing but this for months. i had a pretty good haul a day earlier because i LEFT town for a funeral. i still have never seen wave 6 here at all let alone seven. i just don't get it.
how many out there still live in a black hole of joe distribution and do your toy aisles look a lot like these: Last edited by A.V.A.C.; 07-18-2008 at 09:01 PM.. |

Our Targets don't even have Buzzers right now. Also the comic packs at the Targets are completely wiped out. It's been this way at the Targets since Feb. The Wal-Marts have had nothing but the comic packs wave 1,2, and 3 and also the wave 4 5 and 6 figs. Although the 5 and 6 waves are far more scarce then the saturation from wave 4. I see wave 4 everywhere and the remains of this wave never seem to leave. It is pathetic. I doubt I see wave 7 until some of the the wave 4 dies off.

Yea the last good stocking i've seen was a month ago target stocked wave 5 and 6 packed the pegs full. I caught it both days in a row luckily as soon as they opened to scoop up the cg's and cobra soldiers. I was hopin to get a couple more snake-eyes v2 but they got scooped up everytime i got there.

Yup! That sure does look familiar. Just today my Walmart finally restocked, but it was the Wave 2 revision asst. No Wave 7 yet, of course. For months and months the stores look just like your pics. It's really sad actually. I don't get why Long Island, NY always gets the shaft for 25th Joes. It's pathetic.

My target is resetting today. They didn't have anything but they said that they started a week early on the reset so I'll check in the morning for more there. Walmart isn't moving too fast due to the new price and the fact that they just got a shipment BEFORE wave 7. I knew this would happen. The only TRU close to me is being redone so they have a boat load of nothing! I've been hours late of the only two places that I know of that got any in. So I'll check the store who had the lowest pegs tomorrow with my figners crossed.......... I'm so tired of looking my eyes are starting to match my fingers

Welcome to my world. I haven't seen any new joes past wave 4 and I haven't even seen all of wave 4. We got the two packs but not any new single carded guys since Februrary.

It's not really just backwater forgotten ghost towns.....That looks like pretty much all the Targets around me since January or so. Every once in a while 1 or 2 Targets will get a good shipment that'll last half a day, but for the most part all the stores look like that. There's 1 Wal-Mart out here that doesn't look like that, typically has a case worth or more single figures on the pegs and when they get shipments, it's a full 8 pegs worth (Also, their shipments are fairly frequent
