I just bought the Renegade 4 pack on Amazon. I highly recommend them!
As far as the DG Joe quality, I would say you Kinda get the feel these are cheaper than regular joes. Not in a bad way, but something is off. Almost like customs. The joints seem a like they were sanded to prevent the dreaded custom joint paint rub. At 6 dollars they are GREAT, but at 25 I don't think they are worth over that. A really cool idea and I hope Hasbro continues it. Just hope they show up at Family Dollar next time in which Utah has a lot of those stores. |

According to this, Retaliation figures should be in stock at several targets... but they might not want to sell them to you yet:

Retaliation toys popped up over the weekend at locations of Wal-Mart and Toys 'r Us. I mainly saw the peg warmers (Snake Eyes, Roadblock, Storm Shadow, Duke). Haven't seen a three pack yet. But I did see whatever they're calling the AWE Striker (Ninja 4x4?).

I wish whoever read that and ran right down to get them all would have said something like, "None left," or "Too late, sucka," or "Don't bother going down now."
Oh well. The drive wasn't a complete waste. I did pick up a Retaliation GI Joe Trooper guy. He's much cooler in person than he is in the pictures. I almost passed, but I couldn't walk away from all of the gear and the extra head. These won't be peg warmers, that's for sure. On the whole--packaging aside--they all looked better than the pics made them look. If I'd had the fundage, I would have grabbed the black Cobra Commander and both of the three packs. I probably would have grabbed Duke, too, for the body. Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow both look better than the pictures. If I didn't already hold such a grudge against ninjas, I'd be thrilled. R.

I'll be passing on anything not coming with a stand (and certainly passing on anything with only 5 points of articulation) but I'll let you guys know whenever I find something interesting.

Well I hope the DB who grabbed all the skystirkers leaves this alone. Clearfield DG has some of the Joes as I only bought SS and CT.
Trick is you got to ask the register person because they don't know where to put em so there stashed behind the register. LOL |

Took a spin around the Ogden area today to try to find something to soothe the wound left by missing out of the Layton Sky Strikers. I came home empty handed. It seems that all of the good stuff turns up south of me.
Anyways, I didn't only want to complain; I also wanted to let everyone know that 5 pts Walmart has about a dozen Renegades CC and FF on clearance for five bones. If it had been my last stop instead of my second, I probably would have picked up an FF or two. The extra Renegades Trooper heads look good on them, or they've got decent legs and hands for kit bashes. R.
