Stopped by 2 Walmarts today and both had no pegs left for Joes. The one in Hightstown had it's Joes in the clearance section, all wave one and a big holstered Roadblock (along with a couple gimp hand ones).
Found the 'chase' Star Wars Black figures in South Brunswick Target. Those were the only ones I was interested in of this wave. Is Biggs such a primary character that he belongs in wave 1 of the Collectors series? I see pegwarmer written all over him and Anikan. |

Hit up TRU in Woodbridge & Walmart in Linden. Both are still stocking wave 1 figures. Woodbridge TRU had about 5 Eaglehawks.

I broke down and picked up some Kreo blind packs from TRU East Brunswick. Those things move quickly, they get one case and it lasts about as long as a case of regular Joes without the pegwarmers. They satisfy my Joe craving less than I thought they would, but I get tired of waiting for shipments from BBTS, and awaiting preorders from Smalljoes.

Why did the TRU get a case of WAVE FUCKING 1 figures in yesterday. Its ridiculous! Plus the Walmarts and Targets don't even have pegs, let alone figures. Just sucks to be a Joe fan right now. Arguably one of the best waves of figures ever, and nowhere to be found.

Went down the shore last night and stopped by DGs in Eatontown and Neptune, picked up 2 Snake Eyes, Shipwreck and a Duke. each store had 2 Cobra Commanders, I guess that's starting to warm pegs
Stopped at TRU East Brunswick this morning and almost missed that among the 6-7 Wave 1 Roadblocks is an Ultimate Roadblock. I figured if they ever showed at that store I would find the less desirable remains. Online is the way to go to make sure I get what I want. |

Yeah Moses, it looks like rt 18 TRU DID have the new 3.5 figures, because I was there about an hour earlier than you and saw the ultimate Roadblock and they had an ultimate Snake eyes too.
I bought the ultimate Snake eyes and left the Roadblock that you saw. I did NOT see ANY other wave 3.5 figures but I am assuming they had to have been there. |

Yeah, I said that the other day. This is just ridiculous now! Maybe like 2 TRU's have seen barely a case of the new stuff. Remember the 30th waves with like Lifeline, Zombie viper, and Airtight. They were hard to get, but atleast you had Walmart, Toys R Us, and Target to choose from, and eventually we found em.
This is just insane now though, I mean after a fairly successful movie to not be able to find these figures, that are awesome I might add, is heartbreaking. I hate this shit, I have seen an ultimate Roadblock or 2, Ult Duke, a Flint, Ult Snake eyes, and a Data Viper. THATS IT, it sucks. |

Not sure why anyone is counting on retail for the next two waves.
