Walmart on the south end of Newark, OH. That's in Heath actually. Had the biggest stock of Joes I've ever seen (since the 80's anyway). Four full pegs! over 2 dozen cards! I guess that's not really alot, but it is the most I've seen in one place since the whole 25th anniv started. Wave 9 - two cases, and remnants of wave 8. I got the bats and Snow Serpents. The rest is still there. proof with a pic! Comic packs are all old news. no new stuff.

Columbus area update:
Wal-Mart at Easton (Morse Rd.) has all of wave 7 (finally got my HISS Driver! - and they still had 3 or 4 more). They also have the new 12 inch figs. They had tons of Comic Packs, mostly waves 1 - 3, but they did have the Copperhead/Shipwreck pack and Duke/Red Star, but I bought Red Star (CH/SW was left for someone else, as I already have that one). Wal-Mart at Canal Winchester also has a lot of wave 7 (no HISS Drivers however). They too have the 12 inch figs and tons of wave 1 - 3 comic packs (no wave 4). They also have the wave 9 Torpedo and possibly Wild Bill. |

The new vehicles were spotted near the Canton area today. This is the first time I have seen them in NE Ohio.
As for the person taking the pics of figures on the shelf. I have always wondered if you worry about somebody grabbing a figure while you are taking your pic? LOL I could so see somebody sneaking in and snatching those BATS while I was taking the pic lol

Thanks for the heads up, finished off Wave 7. When I was there this morning, they had Wave 9, whole set that the cards were beat to hell and bent, so I picked them up for my kids. I left a Snow Serpent and Barbecue on nice cards though, if you need them. There might also be a Ninja-Ku, not sure as I didn't want that one and I was a bit overwelmed and had my arms full of figures. Have to say Wave 9 is awesome, the quality of the figures far surpasses any wave so far, hopefully it'll stay that way for future waves.

Which stores did you find the vehicles in Canton? And did you pick them up or were there any left? Thanks. |

They are $15.99 each and TRU had three price stickers and a lot of shelf space cleared for them. I didn't see them but it has been my experience that this TRU doesn't put out the price stickers unless they get the item(s) in. On a side note, they also had a bunch of the new 12" GI Joe Military figures beside where the vehicles were.
