Georgia G.I. Joe Sightings

Checked two Dollar General Stores on the way home from work and the second one had 2.0 mixed in with the first wave. It was the one at Rosebud and 78.

All were there except the new deco Duke.

I picked up the Cobra, which I plan to get a bunch of, and Shipwreck, which will be great for customs.

Good luck, everybody!

My dad has recently opened a booth (along with his friend who has been there for years) at the Peachtree Peddlers Flea Market in McDonough. They have tons of new and vintage toys from GI Joe, Transformers, Spawn, Marvel, DC, anime, etc. and their prices are very reasonable. Check them out on Saturday or Sunday if you are in the area - you might be able to fill a few holes in your collection.

Here is the website for the flea market:

On my way home I stopped at a Dollar General off of lawrenceville hwy in lilburn and they had a mix of wave 1 and 2 joes. I picked up the one cobra soldier repaint and the one black cobra trooper they had left.

Just found W2 at the DG closest to the airport. Sorry if someone was trying to hide them as they were on the bottom of the display kind of under some other stuff. Picked up the 2 I didn't find from before: SW and SE. Put the rest on my B/T list.

They are starting to get out there people!!! Happy Hunting!!!

I finally found a Combat Cruiser at Toys-R-Us today. There was one on the shelf and a Tread Ripper. Both will need lots of paint and new stickers but I'm glad to have them.

Which location? Don't want to go to a store that's already been cleaned out.

FYI. The DG that's on Riverdale rd by the airport is closed for business. That's what the sign in the door said last Thursday.

I just left a DG W2 SW, CC, and SE at the DG on Windy Hill Rd in Smyrna/Marietta.

Has anyone noticed if their Ross is closed? In the past week, I've noticed the Ross in Cartersville, and the one in Sandy Springs on Hammond and Roswell are closed. Is Ross going out of business, or leaving the area?
