I'ts frustrating I have two toddler girls which becomes a pain in the ass to get them in and out of their car seats then move on to the next store.... the majority of the time I spend more money on their snacks then I do going home with any kind of find. Two walgreens by my house have had the same figures hanging in the same spot for over two months .. One of the employees told me he had just restocked that morning and he stated " OH YEAH those gijoes sell out fast" so I guess its an early worm type thing... cause im typically late as hell!
My son (3 y/o) was with me recently (when I went back to pick up the POC Firefly) and at the check out, the cashier very excitedly asked my son if the GI Joe was for him. He said nothing and gave her this look of disgust. In his mind I could see him saying "No, that's my daddy's". Guilt immediately set in for me, so on our next stop (a fruitless CVS) he picked out a wind up/pull back dune buggy. I hope he knows that we will someday engage in Joe v. Cobra battles on a grand scale..! But for now, I suppose he'll stick to ninja'ing my POC Rage off of the shelf at my office. There was a glimpse of hope for me on Monday when he put DG Shipwreck and Storm Shadow in his Bruder "Tow Truck" that was hauling his Ninja Combat Cruiser... |

TRU in McAllen has Kre-O Wave 2 blind bags...was able to pick up Major Bludd, Mindbender and Mutt & Junkyard.
Retaliation wise, they have a bunch if Eaglehawks but no single carded figures. Local RGV Walgreens are getting Wave 4 trickling in...looking for 2 more Night Vipers to complete my squad.

The Walgreens in Beeville has a wave 3.5 Flint and a Budo, but otherwise, Walgreens around Corpus Christi have empty pegs or remnants of wave 1.

If you find a third hook me up. I have been too busy to do a toy run lately.

Nothing special...just seen some action at a couple of DGs yesterday and today. Wave 2(-) at one location (Rosenberg) and wave 1(-) at another (I honestly have no idea where we were...somewhere on the East side of Houston near I-10)...they were BOGO50% at both locations.
Additionally, the TRU in Sugarland has removed the Single Carded GI Joe pegs. The Motorcycles were moved up and over and a restock of Ninja Combat Cruisers and something else showed up. Not cool. |

I know it goes against logic to mark stuff down in December, but there should be an exception for those damned cycles. I'm surprised you can even tell what they are through the thick layer of dust on the packages.

Curious, I have seen someone around the Cypress area in a black or dark blue truck with a cobra emblem on the back window. Anyone here?

So people are spotting wave 4 at TRUs now... anyone seen this in the Houston area? I kinda want a Jinx to open and use for parts.

Well, it looks like the Willowbrook TRU got a case of wave 4 Joes in, but as I expected, Blind Master, Jinx, and Night-Viper were already gone! This was around 1:00 PM today.
