I was at TRU in Columbia on monday. That place was shady! I asked the girl if they sold MU figs and she said she didn't know what they were and went to the back. 5-10 mins later she re-appeared with another dude. then she asked what specific figures I was looking for. I said i wanted the new ones and she said they had Kitty Pryde, Juggs, and a couple others from wave 8.
WTF is going on there? Why do they have 3 empty pegs for these figures, some stock in the the back yet no product on the shelf? Why did the other dude come back to me with her? Why did they ask what figures I wanted but not bring a box up? It seems shady. I bet these assholes are scalping htf figs right from the back. I'm thinking about calling ToysRUs corporate to complain but that would just be a waste of energy. |

Wow, that does sound very shady. I wouldn't be surprised if they had employees stashing and scalping them either. Doesn't seem right to have stuff in the back but nothing on the shelves. It's not the first time I've heard something like this though, it actually happened to me a few years back when I went into a TRU and inquired about a new Star Wars wave that just hit.

I saw evidence of the W3/W4 revision case at a Wal-Mart today; a couple of Alley Vipers, couple of Shock Troopers (BOUGHT), 4 Skydives, a Destro, a Shadow Tracker.
North East Wal-Mart, Exit 100 off I-95 in Cecil County.

Are there any Walmarts in Maryland still carrying Joes?
Also, I said fugetaboutit with looking for a while. Right now, I am under the impression that things will not pick up until summer. Thats another three damn months. I can save gas and not look or risk waiting until summer and finding leftovers from waves I wanted to collect. * Joes are currently getting marked back down to $6.88 in retail. Hopefully, it will usher in the newer waves on time.... On the lookout for: MU Wave 13 - Gladiator, Cyclops, Apocalypse, Wolverine & Cable MU Comic Pack - Silver Samurai v. Patch, Deadpool v. Taskmaster IM2 Comic Wave 4: Mandarin, War Machine, Ultimate Iron Man, Whiplash PoC: Wave 3 Snake Eyes & Shock Troopers, Wave 1 Alley Vipers, Wave 4 Lowlight Transformers Generations /Reveal the Shield: Wheeljack, Thundercracker, Windcharger, Warpath and Lugnut Captain America: The First Avenger: Word is they are getting released early in some areas as soon as April. I need a decent Crossbones and Winter Soldier bad.... Star Wars: Vintage - Zam Visel, A New Hope Luke Skywalker

Yesterday's HAUL
Columbia Walmart - MU Jean Grey -$8, PoC Storm Shadow - $5, TRON Light Cycle -$7 TRU - was informed that their inventory is still in process for getting updated. They actually scanned the two pegs for G.I. Joe Figure Asst 2010 = PoC and it displayed back as ten in stock while in reality there hasn't been any since last year. The blue sticker actually states 2/27 was the last time they had figures in stock but the inventory system, which allows them to order more, was incorrect for more than a month afterward. This is completely different from the last time when they told me that they would no longer be carrying Joes. WtF? Aren't toys a major priority in a friggin' toy store?

Also, if you and I aren't lucky finding it, there will be an X-force Warpath included in the upcoming X-force three pack. I also want the Avengers three pack:

Does the Walmart off of Joppa & Putty Hill Rd. still carry Joes? Its the Towson Shopping Center with everything in it. How about the TRU there? I'm wondering if every Walmart in Maryland axed Joes from their toy department.
