Strange is the first figure gone every time. When I was returning stuff yesterday, every store... full sets except Strange. So weird.
Still need to find 2 comic colored Hydra Armored Soldiers (#12). Picked up two movie ones for my brother, but he didn't want that version so hopefully I can run across a Target and just swap them out.

I don't believe that Wal-Mart crap until Hasbro sez so. Wal-Mart may choose not to ship stuff as much to stores that haven't had the strongest sales for the Joe line, but I seriously doubt they'd drop it. I think employees are getting outdated intel from local geeks (who may also be employees) about what we thought before (that Wal-Mart would drop Joes after ROC). Distribution is spotty at best, but each store will probably get at least something every so often and place it in some odd spot like the Wal-Mart next to me.
Can you guys post pics (or links to pics) of the Hydra Soldiers you are talking about? I haven't seen them (only seen the deluxe Hydra Soldiers unless those are the figs you are talking about). Thanks! EDIT: Nevermind. I saw them on ebay. Now I have more shit I need. Arrrggghhh!

Magick, I'm on the lookout for a Strange for you. I was hoping for one at the Denton store tonight but no dice. I did find 3 stashed Apocolypse figures and left them just in case. Let me know if you do find Strange.

Emil before I repaint his head. The hair is a little spotty and the right side of his face got quite a bit of the hair paint. Swapped on W3 SE arms & legs to give him better articulation. Emil is a little shorter than most Joes, but that works since the actor was only 5'8" or so.

Hasbro already is switching. They've reduced the number of plastic bands and large figures are getting more paper like twist ties.
Don't be surprised to see Joe again. Despite what could be poor sales for that store (Doesn't help if its solid pegwarmers or the staff just doesn't effing stock stuff), more WMs should have Joe when we start Xmas season reset in a couple of months.

I only really want two Hazard Vipers. If it was the mix of orange & yellow, 5 easy. Solid orange like we're getting... meh.
