Guess I should be happy, I at least scored some dollar comics today. And got an almost complete WW 3 run, just need issue 35.

Every Walmart I've been to is purging their Joe pegs and looks to have received their final stock of a single Black Adder/Crimson HISS case. Unless Target held back wave 3 and 4 stock, it looks like we can call 30th done.

Great! That means Sci-Fi, Storm Shadow, Lifeline, Law & Order & Airtight are going to be $20+ from now on.

..fraid so. Even Walgreens isn't restocking them. Here's my recon:
the CVS in Pigeon Forge has a wave 1 Stalker, Viper, Hazard Viper, and Cobra Trooper (complete with both pistols and barb wire!)...for $11.99 each. The Walgreens on the Gatlinburg strip has a wave 1 Steel Brigade and Iron Grenadier for $10.99 each. The Sevierville Walmart has a Hazard Viper and Firefly and a Black Dragon. If anyone needs wave 1 troop builders, hurry to the CVS on Broadway (next to Burger King) in Knoxville. I made friends with the manager and he ordered the max of those and gasp... they've sold very well! But there are still a fair amount (five or ten) of them left. There are oddball leftovers at the Walgreens on Broadway: the one across from the Fellini Kroger has a wave 1 Cobra Trooper and Iron Grenadier. (Don't go there after dark-seriously) The Walgreens further north in Fountain City on Broadway has a wave 2 Snake Eyes and an IG, and the Super Kroger has a wave 1 Stalker, wave 2 Cobra Trooper and a wave 1 Steel Brigade for 9.99 IIRC. The Walgreens on Ashville Hwy is dry, but the on at Cherry Street has an ROC Baroness on a beat to shit card for ... wait for it... $10.99! TRU at East Towne has nothing but two pegs of wave 2 warmers- no troops, 6 Black Dragons, a VAMP, and 2 Skystrikers. TRU at West Town has nothing but a ROC SS Action Battler and two Firefly and CC figures. Walker Springs Walmart has one Hazard Viper and an Iron Grenadier in addition to the three pegs of wave 2 warmers and a Black Dragon. Clinton Hwy Walmart has two pegs of wave 2 warmers and nothing else. Halls Walmart and Walgreens has NO Joe at all. All the area Targets have very few (two CC's and Firefly's at most) figures but plenty of Sky Strikers. All the West Knoxville drugstores have no figures at all. The Turkey Creek Walmart has four pegs of wave 2 warmers and one Black Dragon. Beales and Tuesday Morning both have two each of the cancelled ROC Mole Pods with Volcano Vipers and Beales also stocks the odd ROC figure as they dig them out. TJ Maxx on Kingston Pike has a bunch of ROC Ravens for 19.99 and four pegs of ROC Storm Shadow (all versions), Rex, and Arctic Snake Eyes. Walmart in Morristown is dry. The Newport Walmart has a CC, a Firefly and a torn open Ripcord that they refused to sell me, even though I found it in the clearance section. (I guarantee you that it's hanging back there right now. I think someone might have stolen one of his guns and his poster, but if you find a manager who's not a prick, maybe you could get it at a dscount) All of the local Ross stores have nothing Joe-wise. ..well there is a single MARS three pack at most of them, but does that really count? I'm not paying $7 just for two decent looking MP5's on three crap figures. The Marshalls at New Harvest Center has a single ROC Storm Shadow with zip line for $3. That's all I can remember right now, but if anyone in the Knoxville area can think of another possible location, chances are I've scouted it, so just ask. I'm done looking.

You can call it done, and I'll grab all the shit that still trickles out over the next 3 or 4 months. Two walmarts in my area restocked wave 4 today.

I'm in East Tennessee; it's a whole different country as far as GI Joe and Walmart are concerned. This pattern has held even going back to 25th (and it sold incredibly well). Believe me; I would LOVE to be wrong.

Have any of you found the Renegades Strom Shadow? I lucked out right after Christmas and found him at my local walmart. Haven't seen any new Joes since.
