This morning's hunt:
Target (Sun Prairie): - 8x PoC Arctic Destro - 1x PoC Dusty - 1x PoC Doom Cycle - 1x PoC Ghost Hawk - 1x PoC Ice Cutter - 1x PoC AWE Striker - 2x PoC Cobra Deviant WalMart (Sun Prairie): - 10x PoC Arctic Destro - 5x PoC Desert Storm Shadow - 5x PoC Tornado Kick Snake Eyes - 1x PoC Dusty - 2x PoC Firefly - 6x PoC Ice Cutter WalMart (East Madison): - 1x PoC Arctic Destro - 2x PoC Ghost Hawk - 7x RoC Cobra Gunship (at $24.88, no less - seriously???) So, in a nutshell, I found jack shit. If those damn RoC Gunships had been clearance priced, I would have bought two of them (I have a plan to convert them into Iron Grenadier troop transports). I saw all of PoC wave 3 once, on the first day it was reported at HissTank. Nothing since then. Has anyone seen PoC wave 4 in Wisconsin yet? I'm starting to get a bit pissed. |

I found a Lowlight and a Skydive at the Fitchburg Target like a month ago...

[QUOTE=Crosshair;2454107]If you do find anymore (are they BBI?) I'd probably be interested.
The Weapons sets are 1/18th scale and called Elite Forces. They are manufactured by Blue Box Toys. Also, here is my store report for the Green Bay area: All of the Wal-Marts do not have GI JOE stuff anymore. The DePere store has an Arctic Destro and 2 Tornado Kick Snake Eyes. Target on the East side has Wave 2 pegwarmers. Target West side got in a revision case with some wave 4 last week but it is gone. TRU got in 1 case of Wave 4 about 3 weeks ago and it is long gone. TJ MAXX has no joes and Big lots still has some comic packs for $10. Picking is pretty slim. Glad I got Wave 4 last month from BBTS and I broke down and preordered wave 5/6 from HTS.

And I'm with you, I've taken to ordering a case of every wave on SmallJoes. Afterwards I'll visit stores if I need extra figures, but relying on stores to actually get in stock (without getting picked over before I get there) is too much of a gamble. |

Found a Low Light at Wal-Greens, but at $11.99 I think I'll pass. Also found remnants of a revision wave at the Target in Greenfield. Only thing of interest was Sky Dive, but there's an abundance of AV and Shock Troopers too. Good to see!

I have not. I'll keep an eye open, though. Target has Joes on sale this week for $6.99. Went to a Shopko last week and they didn't have an POC figure, though they had an entire section devoted to CORPS. It was about 4 feet wide with figures and vehicles galore.

Today the Madison area is horrible for Joe's. The only thing of note is I picked up the last Shock Trooper from the Fitchburg Target, but left an Alley Viper there. Also they had about 4 Jungle Vipers and the rest of the wave 3 line. Otherwise, Madison East Target, East Wal-mart, Toys-R-Us, all had nothing or only Artic Destros. |

I'd love to find some wave 4. you gotta figure they'll show up sooner or later. It's just the waiting that's annoying. Just need one of each - Is that so much to ask?
Hey also, for anyone looking for vintage stuff (especially vehicles), I'm still trying to sell my buddy's collection. |
