The sculpt of that F-18 and the pilot is horrendous.

I had a BBi F-18 and it was the Black Jolly Rogers one. I had to sell it after my divorce. Now I am gearing up to buy the new BBi F-16. I thought about the JSI Tomcat, but it's just too big.

I concur. Kendall WM is dead to me (there's a Black Dragon still hanging around). Doral WM had nothing new.

I did my rounds today in Sarasota/Bradenton.

A very interesting side note about the south Sarasota Target. I picked up one of the Shiny mask cobra vipers and asked the guy stocking the isle if they got any of the Joes on the latest truck. He said that they are phasing out G.I. Joe because "they aren't selling well" .

My guess is that the target employees are cherry picking the boxes as well.

I placed the figure back on the peg for any collectors in the area looking for this. Its the basic setup. 2 Arctic destros, Cobra commander renegades, ripcord renegades, Cobra viper, cobra trooper and, iron grenadier.

Walgreens Fruitville and 301 - Rise of Cobra - and a toxo viper
Walgreens Fruitville and beneva - Rise of Cobra figs - a renegades duke
Marshals and Ross in sarasota - nada
Ross - Bradenton - really nothing and I burned the building down... or it needs to be burned down.
Target on Fruitville - same old Arctic Destros and new Skystrikers on the shelf
Target - South Sarasota same old setup.
Target on University - same old arctic destros
Toys R us - Truck came in Tuesday theres a snake eyes renegades on the shelf and some of the vehicles got replenished.
Brandon Toys - R Us nothing
Brandon Target - Cobra Vipers
K-Mart - Nada
Darkside comics - Nada

I am super tired of driving around and decided from here on out I am just preordering cases from BBTS.

Funny how merchandise doesn't "sell well" when the floor managers refuse to put it on the floor, or put it out 3 -4 months after it's release, I don't see Star Wars toys get this treatment.

Man, you should see the way they're treated at the stores up here by Torgo and me. The stores that carry Joes sell them fairly well, and tend to restock well. But that's only 4 stores in a 4 county area. They also don't stock the SW figures worth a damn. I don't collect them much, but I keep track of what's new and what's out because I try to help my friends out. It'll be months before a new Clone Wars wave hits. Hell, just last week was the first time I saw the Savage Opress wave(no shirt). New Vintage SW? pshh, no such thing.
The only things that get stocked like a motherframer are Hot Wheels and Transformers. There are enough TFs among the local stores to crush a small island.
Oh, and how about Marvel Universe. Only one of the 5 WMs carry them now, but they don't have a spot on their planogram for the comic packs. WTF? And I'm tired of the same 12 figures sitting there taking up space.
My local WM just did their reset and they have 2 pegs for Cap, 2 for Thor and 2 for Iron Man. Now, just wtf are they planning to stock on those pegs? There aren't any new toys coming, and they haven't had a Thor figure in 2 months.
Arrgh! *Venting much frustration*

No worries dude, I really appreciate the look out! I don't think they're really hitting anywhere in force yet, especially with all the stores doing their after Christmas inventory and reset. But I'm caught up on the line excluding those two, so I'm looking forward to them.

He speaks the truth. This area hates GI Joe and SW collectors but the Transformers section is always overflowing. The Hot Wheels section is 90% monster trucks now for some reason. Funny how monster trucks get popular every 5 years or so, lol.

Also the 4 GI Joe pegs still have the same figures on them, one per peg. I think Rip, Scarlett, a Steel Brigade and another I can't remember. I think that they are done with the reset in the action figures section so maybe they will bring another case out. The pegs were overflowing before the reset. I'm also worried about the long wait we have until the movie figures. And I hope they won't suck ass like RoC crap.
