I found some three packs the other day at TRU, but just the crappy light blue figures. They were tucked away on the bottom shelf next to the vehicle sets. The two packs are up high on a random peg about six feet away from the vehicles and now the three packs are down on the bottom shelf next to those.
TRU is treating this exclusive all wrong. It's like they get the boxes in, open them, and think "Well, they sent us this stuff, may as well try to sell it. Just put them on a random shelf anywhere you can for now and maybe we'll find a real spot for it all later." I agree with you! TRU doesn't have any respect for this line and it seems that they'll place them anywhere when they come in. I know my TRU hasn't had a designated spot in 2 to 3 months! I seem a distribution issue with Hasbro...AGAIN!!! |

They could at least show some effort and put them with, I don't know maybe the military toys, like the True Heroes junk.
I don't get it. |

Joes have not been respected by TRU for a long time now, and it's only getting worse.
Even when there was an actual widespread Joe line, they got a few pegs and a half a shelf down at the end of the superhero aisle. Big Hero Six still has a big area in the normal aisle, and that movie has been forgotten for well over a year now, almost two. You'd think Joes could have at least got an endcap on the back of the aisle somewhere. |

Even last year I was finding the figures right next to the Transformers stuff. And for a month or so it was on a little island endcap thing. But yeah, this stuff now is just thrown wherever they have room.
I did see a couple of the Storm Shadow packs at the TRU in North Olmsted today. Really they had multiples of every two pack except for the Gung Ho one. The only 3 pack they had was the Zartan one. I want that Zartan for parts, but can't bring myself to buy it just for that. |

Has anyone seen the Marine Devastation 2 pack? I need a Gung-Ho! Also, looking for another Rock rampage as well.

I haven't seen the Rock Rampage set since the SW Midnight Sadness event.
Still kicking myself for leaving it there. |

There were two Gung Ho packs at the Heath, OH store last night. I left them both on the pegs. They were behind all of the peg warmers... might be safe for a bit.
