Went to Target in Bethel to check for jets....nothing I had customer service check all stores in surrounding area and none in stock.I did pick up the 2 Iron Grenadier comic packs and there were about 3 each of the Nemesis/Falcon and Tripwire/Commander packs.Checked out TRU in Danbury and I found another Black Head Destro and left behind the regular gold Destro/IG pack.I was bored and rearranged the single card figs so each peg had all Flints,Rock n Rolls,Roadblocks etc. to a peg lol

I picked up the rattler and conquest at the Target in Ansonia ( Derby? ) and they told me the Orange Target had 2 of each in stock. All you have to do is calla nd have them hold them for you but first give the the DPC number to see if they have them. Also, there is a toy store on the second floor of the Milford mall that has tons of joes, but the asshole wants 14.99 each for them. Still, if you are missing a few it is better then EBAY. He also had a few target veh ( 20.00each ) and the wave 1 veh ( 29.95 each ).
Oh yeah, today is the 14th, and this was yesterday. |

I havent seen anyone talk about this yet, so I want to post this. I live in Fairfield County, CT and for waves 1-6 all Walmarts, targets, and Toysrus shelves and pegs have been pretty much empty up until now. I had to use EBAY ( I hate paying 20 bucks for a 7 dollar figure!!) and a lot of gas to acquire every single 25th joe out so far. As a avid comic collector, I discovered a full proof method for Acquiring joes. I get the Previews catalog from Alternate Universe in Milford, CT ( comic store ) and have the owner order me cases of all the 25th stuff direct from Diamond Select ( direct from Hasbro). I have to pay a little more ( I end up paying 9.99 instead of 7.99 for the figures, but I get mint sealed cases from Hasbro, full waves and I don't have to drive around the state ( I own two SUV's and the gas is a lot more than the two bucks extra for each figure!). The only thing that sucks, is that I pay 29.99 instead of 19.99 for the DVD sets, but it is worth it for me. Also, each wave I get from them has two random extra figures for the wave, so maybe I will luck out and get the clear wraith variant!!! In regards to the comic packs, I get those at the Stratford Walmart, I walked in a month ago and got three black headed Destros and have never had a problem getting any of them. Also, I got the rattler and conquest yesterday and the Derby Target, and the Orange Target still has two of each as of today. I called the store and had them put them aside with my name and they were there waiting for me when I got there, check out that cool link someone posted and you can look up the DPC number on the Target website. Also, I have lost so much sleep over the stupid Target exclusives I am pre-ordering all future Target EXCL. ( the 50 dollar mobat/hiss set for Christmas!!!!) Also, I picked up the two new troop builders at the Hartford TRUs last weekend, the Crimson Guard and Firefly vs, Greenshirts. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, Angrypandaink.

Sounds like a good idea, only thing i would do different is not to preorder the dvd packs they seem to be clogging the shelves now.

Your right about on this, it is hard as ever to find joes here in ct, my friend & i went high and low, but we came out lucky, we found every thing and were up to date, i haven't been up to clock work comics in years, dose john still run the place,? Well since you like comics, im going to be selling a tone of comics on e-bay in a month, i too was a hard core comic fan, i have every thing in mint, and i don't want it any longer, so ill be selling it off,

Yeah, I was sorta annoyed to find that every store has a whole department just for the DVD packs. But all in all, I rather pre-order stuff and have it be clogging the store shelves than not pre-order it and find out Hasbro didn't make enough and have trouble finding it in stores.

sweet thanks for the heads up , just ran over there .. had 2 conquest and one rattler so i snagged the three of them. one conquest for my brother and the other 2 for me.. i had almost given up on them
the target in milford mall had nothing. That toy store on the 2nd floor that guy is a scum bag , he had a going out of business sale 2 months ago and now miracuously he is back in full swing jacking up the prices of everything.. he does have alot of figures tho. so if anyone is in serious need of a bats or snow serpent then go check him out.. he is a douche tho
