Hit the 6 DGs between I 70 and S. High St. in Columbus. No one has anything. Any other news from Columbus?

Thanks Ryogam - I was just about to go out hunting on lunch - you saved me from wasting my time! Let me know if you come across anything - I'll tell you if I see any.

Here's what I was thinking, for Columbus Tankers, at least. I need at least one set only, possible an extra SE and SS. I have Three DGs on my slightly modified way to work. I plan on hitting these three at least 3 times a week. I will be picking up any figures I see and trying to get them to other Columbus Tankers at cost. Hopefully, those other Tankers will reciprocate if they find extras first and not sell them on ebay. I figure, once these hit, they will hit all the stores at the same time, within a couple of days, allowing people to get multiple sets. Basically, I plan to keep hitting the same three stores even after I have my set in order to help other tankers in Columbus. I'm hoping others do the same with different stores. The three stores I will hunt are: 745 Georgesville, 1260 Demorest, and 1410 Harrisburg.
Good luck and good hunting. |

Posted this in the main thread, but thought I'd share the info
........ Went to about 10 stores today; found nothing, but got a lot of intel. A few stores had just reset, but did not have these figures. The manager of one called around and the larger stores have them; ones with the "16-foot" toy displays. He had a limited list of the stores in his district and the larger ones had already sold the ones they had. Apparently, the smaller stores don't have the room to place them yet. Stopped at one last store after getting the UPCs from the other thread. The manager did a search and they have "6 in transit, 0 in stock" but showed me the back room and said they'd be somewhere in the big pile of stuff and would be set out by Sunday. He's going to hold 2 cases for me He also said he was unable to special order anything though. This was before he looked them up; I had asked if they could order some in if they had none in the back. PS, the "6 in transit" was after he entered the Stormy UPC. He also entered the Duke and Shipwreck codes and found 6 of those to. I'm guessing that means 6 cases.

Went to Dollar General here in Parma and was able to buy a whole set. They only had one of each figure and they were $6.00 each. Good luck to everyone looking.

Stopped by the Dollar General at Lebanon today and nothing. I talked to a supervisor and she said they just reset toys and there is no spot for Joes. They had the combat heroes up front on clearance so not sure if all Dollar Generals will get them.
