Tell you what. Since I am close to many walmarts and have no interest in non joe toys except halo and lego, let me know what you're looking for and I'll pick them up for you. You'll have to post pictures as I'm not familiar with the universe of DC characters like I am marvel. Shockwave could probably fill you in but not all walmarts are created equal. Depending on the type of store, they have a different toy department. The walmart on howell mill has a smaller toy department and doesn't get everything a typical supercenter gets. This doesn't mean that all supercenters get full line ups either. It depends on how well they sell toys and their location.

picked up an elite viper at the perimeter mall target today...was looking for helix & pit commando, but from the back of the cards it looked like they put out a refresher wave that didn't have them in it.

Called the Barrett Prkwy Target and no signs of the Helix wave. Wish I knew about the Acworth sighting sooner. Will report if I come across them. Managed to get everything I wanted from the TRU sale minus this wave, so I'm pretty pleased overall.

well eBay is always an option but I figure you could probably get new homes for your stuff through the classifieds here on the tank. Just out of curiosity what vintage GI Joe stuff do you have? is it figures, vehicles? And what kind of prices do you have in mind for your stuff. If you find some buyers here in GA they could potentially come and pick them up from you in person to save the hassle of shipping. Just my two cents.
I spent the better part of last week sorting through my old comic collection from the 80s and 90s and determining what to keep or get rid of. I plan to begin on the toys over the next month. I will post once I get a few things organized with photos and price points. Let me know if you see anything of interest and hopefully we can help each other out. Thanks! |

I have a bunch that I need to sort through and organize - both vehicles and figures. Off the top of my head, I have a vintage Night Raven, a Mamba, 2 Skystrikers, 2 Dragonflies, a vintage Sky Hawk, 2 Triple Ts, and 2 Wolverines. This is just the tip of the iceberg though. I also have the original command center and a mobile command center that I'm debating getting rid off. Most everything is in good condition, just dusty.

Looking forward to that post and depending on what you have and the asking price maybe I can help you out.

I do think it is cool that you guys have some good stores to hunt in. My Walmart is one of those inbetween kind of stores that isn't a full fledged super center but is a step up over a regular walmart. Suppossedly we're getting a Super Walmart sometime in the future so if we ever do, maybe things will improve. As far as help, well, come wave 10 i may need it! I really want to get the wave 10 power girl and until then I'm not too concerned (unless the GI Joe two packs don't show up, really want to get Shockblast and Night Creeper). But I'll get back to you on that.

What a pain in the @$$! I have not seen any pit commandos nor Flash. Those are just what I want. Mans this sucks...

Glad to know it's not just me. When I've been out though I have seen non-collector types buying up figures and some of the other toys though so hopefully these will start hitting in more areas soon. The hype & stuff is starting to have a positive effect on sales, which is good.
