I walked into my TRU today and along with all the wv1 pegwarmers I found a 30th Viper! My guess is that someone must have stashed this somewhere and forgotten about it or decided they didn't want it.
If this was you...thanks! |

Another odd find today at the Fort Wayne TRU. This time I found a Cobra Combat Ninja on the peg with the wave 1 pegwarmers. No sign of any of the rest of the wave, and an employee was perplexed about it as I was because he said they didn't get anything gi joe on the last truck.
Who would buyout an entire case of wave 3.5 and leave the CCN??? |

It's possible, although this is the first I've seen of the ultimate wave at retail in our area. I was thinking someone probably stashed it and it got found and put back on the peg (like the 30th Viper I found before almost certainly had been).

Maybe someone just returned it to get cash after buying a case online.

I was at the Fort Wayne TRU yesterday, there was a pile of HISS tanks and Eaglehawks, but just a few pegwarmer figs. It's not so fun when someone else buys everything.

They have done a pretty good job keeping everything stocked except the single-carded figures. They even just got a shipment of the wave 2 Kreos last week, which had sold out by the time I went back the other day.

I dont understand why everyone likes those kreos so much. In essence they are just legos with the gi joe namesake. Whatever floats peoples boats I guess. Oh well I can go grab the box at the castleton tru and make a killing (I kid).

As a lifelong LEGO enthusiast, Kreo is the closest substitute for Lego there is. Other bricks may work with Lego, but Kreos are the only one that have the same heft and quality feel as Lego does. Still, they are not engineered quite as well and don't seem to have quite the same QC as real Lego, but they are a close second.

I don't get Kreos either. They're just not for me. 4" Joes are small and "partsy" enough already.
If I were to choose between the brands, Lego does seem a bit better. Not just because it has thousands of different sets to mix and match, but also because the lil' people look better to me. Megabloks (Call of Duty!!?) has them both beat though, imo.
