TRU should be carrying it. You might just have to check inventory with them at the store.

I drove over 100 miles to Bakersfield on Friday to see Morrissey in concert and I visited their three Dollar General stores. At the first one, there weren't any Joes. I asked an employee there, explaining that I'd driven up from Los Angeles. She was very kind and checked the back, but they had nothing. She then offered, since she was leaving work, to let me follow her to another DG that was across town, so I did. When I got there, this DG had one each of SE, CC, and SW. The girl then went to find a friend who worked in the back to see if there were more, so I could complete the set. There weren't, but I was directed to another DG. No luck there. The employee mentioned that they only order the Joes after they have sold out and they only order a set at a time. I have never experience such friendly customer service.
Ultimately, the concert was outstanding (the best of the 8 times I've seen him) and the $40 spent in gas for the round trip was not horrible, considering that I combined both the show and the search. The girl said that Dollar General is expanding throughout California, with the regional management office already located in Orange County. These stores will be in the Los Angeles area soon, she claimed. Will they be soon enough to make it in time to provide these Joes or their impending variants? Time will tell...

Found the Hiss at TRU in Chino Hills Friday. Left the Skyhawk 2 behind. I am desperately searching for those RETALIATION 3 packs.

Why do some of these people stash figures theyre not not even gonna return to purchase. If you dont have enough to pay for your figures leave them on the shelf or pegs. Stop being a douche.

Got up early at the opening at TRU @ the Mills. Surprisingly no "scalpers". Ran into fellow Tanker Lantern Lad who found me Retaliation Duke just sitting on the shelf across from the Joe pegs and I found a Roadblock stashed behind Star Wars vehicles.
So I found 2 Joes for the BOGO 50% off sale. No vehicles to be found.

Also went to the Ontario tru at the mills. But went after breakfast with the wife. There still were no figures except the motorcycle figures and the big 10 inch figures. They had put some joe product up front where the avengers movie stuff was, also had some spiderman and batman stuff up there too. I guess that was where the summer movie stuff start at then be placed in the regular spot.
