Well much like the black guy in Spaceballs desert search....I ain't found shit.
And to that end I gave up and just ordered the box of 12 from BBTS so all I really need is a Night Viper. As for the new figures here's my thoughts. U Flint, U Duke, U Roadblock Shame on you Hasbro...these are the figures that should have been in wave one. That being said...Duke and Flint are little more than the same figures you already have with a lot of gear. I'm not saying their bad I just feel really disappointed that they gave us crap in MASS quantites then these in less. Roadblock is easy the best of the group. U CC, U SS, U SE CC rocks, I even like his helipack, but miss his back gun holster, otherwise a great CC will replace my 25th. SS...well if you scored the Renegades SS that becomes the ARAH SS you PROBABLY don't need this one but again I know that one was hard to find so this is a second chance at a great sculpt. His backpack thing...useless. SE....honestly yes there are some SLIGHT improvements from the v2 25th SE, like rocker ankles...but overall if you were happy with the 25th version...why get this one? Kwinn, CG, Data Viper Kwinn...all win. CG...thought I would have hated what looked like the Retailation lazy version of the CG that the Lazy Version of the Alley Viper was...but ended up liking him more than I imagined. Data Viper is one of the single most overgeared figures ever...and I can't picture him on a battlefield or in covert action...but I love him! Budo, U FF, Cobra Combat Ninja Budo pure win...granted looks crazy nothing like ARAH Budo but great mold. U FF...IMO...if you got the 3 pack you don't need this one unless you ABSOLUTLY have to have the mini HISS. Combat Ninja...my only complaint is I may need a second one to make one of each look because they both look great. |

Indeed, indeed, its been so shitty out there. Its sad really, and if these wave 3 or 4 figures were just simply on the fucking pegs, I would have given Hasbro so much of my money. Walmart and Target don't even have pegs for Joes, but TRU might as well not have pegs either. All they have is a wave 1 Roadblock or a wave 1 Snake eyes, its just fucking stupid! Why bother even keeping pegs for G I Joe if you are NEVER GONNA FUCKING RESTOCK THEM!!!! I have had very minimal luck at Walgreens. I found an Ultimate Storm Shadow, a Data -viper, and incredibly a Night Viper at a Staten Island Walgreens, but that's it. And yes I HAVE bought cases and plenty of figures online. It just SUCKS to not find ANYTHING at retail. I enjoy the "hunt" and unfortunately Joes are nearly extinct. Its scary and I am almost ashamed to admit it, but I am getting my " fill for the hunt" from finding rare Monster High dolls for my 5 year old daughter. Someone help me please, I need to find Joes at retail!!!! |

Guys, NO BULLSHIT, I walked into Toys r us on RT 1 in Edison today, on a total whim I might add, and they had wave 4 figs on the pegs. I swear to God, I was literally speechless. I almost didn't even go down the Joe aisle either, the pickings have been so bad lately that I sometimes don't even make it to the Joe aisle. I will be looking for new Lego Batman sets or other shit and when I finally do go down that aisle there is always nothing.
Well not today, I found a yellow Jinx, Blind Master, an Alley Viper, and a mother f#@king Night Viper, YEAH SON !!!!! I left a Joe Colton, Cyber viper, and Lady Jaye. Yes there is still hope, I still cant believe I got another Night Viper at retail today, crazy. |
