I hit 4 Walmarts in Tulsa, Ok and nada on figures and vehicles. I hit 4 Targets. Had all figures but minus the waves with Helix in them. Hit 1 Toys R Us and just basic figure assortment but did pick up the last Firefly exclusive but they had several Barbeques. Looked at entertainmentearth.com for case breakdowns. Waves with Helix only 1 figure a pop in those assortments. Hope Hasbro mixes it up later or have another Indian Jones fiasco.

$7.88 is not worth the drive to save .11 cents. A store full of kids running around thrashing up the toy aisles is not my thing. The only reason I stopped at Wal-Mart this morning because it was between two Targets and a Toys R Us and all I bought was the prequel book: Above & Beyond. Last time I bought Joes at Wal Mart was in December when Wave 13 hit. I've always hated Wal Mart and the only reason I shopped there was because thay had $4.88 figures way back and sometimes they 'd have product before Target & TRU. Otherwise Wal-Mart can kiss my shiney butt. I rather support TRU anyways, they've always backed G.I. Joe

I don't think so mainly because there was always room on the pegs for figures. for some reason, this particular Wal Mart just always seemed to stock the new waves (and I mean the first time a wave even hit the shelf in my area after sightings first were reported) on Sunday mornings.

We unloaded 1-2 tractor trailers that arrived every single night and put toys out every night as well, both fresh from the truck and from the stock room. It was a fairly high volume store, but I can't imagine that it's a very unusual schedule. What got put out depended on what was on the truck and whatever sold that day. |

Why doesn't Hasbro simply tell Walmart that the street date has been moved up to the 4th???
Doesn't Walmart know by now that Toys R Us & Target already put the crap out? |

Went to a bunch of stores today for work. Target at Gessner at Memorial City mall in Houston and three dedicated endcaps with graphics up. The four small vehicles, raven, cobra jeep, and the Pit..
No unamsked SS or Paris Pursuit SE the two things I am looking for right now and all the Wal-Marts I was in only had the SE costume and 12" figs. I was in Target at Eldridge and Westheimer this morning as they were stocking the shelves...none of the above figs I am looking for were in there. i asked her if that was it she said that was everything from the back so if in Houston and you want about 40 ninja commando SE or version 1 SS and Desert Dukes head there. On a side note does anyone know when the mantis and the apache helicopter coming out? Last edited by MSU44; 07-07-2009 at 06:49 PM.. |
