I found another set on the north west side of San Antonio at the I-10 and Callaghan location. I picked up a couple of them and left the rest. So far that is two stores out of 7 that I have hit that had them.

It's been awhile...
Thanks to Soundwave, I picked up the DG Shipwreck and Storm Shadow. One of the employees told me that someone came in and picked up 8 or 9 in one shot. Of the 4 stores in our AO this is the only one that I'm aware of with a confirmed sighting. They rang them up at $6 and, with no prompting from me, did a price override down to $3.50. I was prepared to pay the $6; but, definitely wasn't going to argue when they volunteered to lower it... Does anyone know what all of the accessories are with the Retaliation 3 packs? I've seen some Tankers say they've found them at their TRU's for $19.99. That's a pretty decent price for 3 figures especially if they come with a good load-out of accessories. Also, does anyone know the price of these at other B&M or are these TRU specific product? |

Ok, I did a toy run afer work and here are the results:
I hit 3 of 4 Dollar Generals (skipped the Villa Maria one) - no signs of the new Joes Bryan Target - Has 1 Skystriker for $24.48 (might get it if it is still there later today) and single figures on clearance for $5.48. ToysRUs - has 2 of each of the Retaliation 3packs for $19.99 and wave 1 of the Retaliation single figures (Red Ninja, 1 Roadblock, and 1 Storm Shadow were gone as I only saw 9 of the 12 figures). I passed on all of them for now. I was surprised to see the black Cobra Commander instead of the blue one pictured on the card. College Station Target - no Skystrikers, has single figures on clearance for $5.48. College Station Walmart - nothing as usual. Balaclava, the Retaliation 3-packs are $19.99 at ToysRUs, they might be cheaper at Walmart and Targets but considering HasbroToyShop is selling them for $19.99 as well, I am betting that is the MSRP for them.

Round Rock Target has Joes clearanced at $8... no comment on that. Skystriker (1 left) is $25. Pflugerville Target has Joes also clearanced at $8...still no comment. And a Skystriker at $25.

Went by the dollar general on blanco/basse and found half the DG joes(CC, Duke and SW). I already got a Duke today and didnt care for the other 2. Left all of them.

Could the black one be a variant? I haven't looked into them so I don't know. If you see any of the Dollar General Joes pick some up for me. You know, if they have enough for both of us.

I went by the Bryan Target and got the last Skystriker that had a clearance price tag on it for $24.48. However, when it rang up on the register it was only $17.48 ($18.92 after tax). SCORE!!! The single carded Joes (Arctic Destros and Renegades Snake Eyes) still have a tag of $5.48, however, I didn't check to see if they were actually cheaper in the system.

I will definitely pick up some of the Dollar General Joes for you once I find them more plentifully, which hopefully will be in the coming weeks.

Hehe, usually it is the other way around! I am just glad it was still there today. The other Target in College Station didn't have any Skystrikers, so I figured if I didn't get the last one at the Bryan Target, I wouldn't be getting another one (unless they show up at Ross or TJ Maxx this fall).

I picked up one of the 3 packs from TRU (the one w/ Beachhead). Also, found 1 set (only 6) of the DG Joes in Schulenberg...picked up the Trooper. Now I just need 3 to 8 more...LOL!!! I'm really liking the DG stuff. Those stores are all over the place and fairly easy to run a quick Recce through. |

Target on 2222 near 620 had the new Retaliation figures. I picked up CC, Roadblock, Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow and the Red Ninja. I left Zartan, Duke, Cobra Trooper and Joe Trooper.
