I think I'll pass on the FF vs greenshirts. If not for the Duke arms, I might have picked up a set. The GC pack, however, is pure awesomeness for me. I only have 2 CGs at the moment, so I'll probably buy 2 or 3 of these

That's assuming your TRU stocks overnight... my wife works at a TRU/BRU side-by-side and there are two overnight stockers, but I know for a fact that GI Joe is typically stocked during the day when it is slow after the truck arrives in the morning. So if you wait to show up the next morning you likely will find remnants or nothing at all.
I've seen certain Wal Marts and Targets that stock toys during the day too... so get to know the employees and make nice and you can beat the scalpers who think that the early bird gets the worm. I think it is more like the well informed bird. I work at TRU as a stocker. We don't have any overnight stockers, we get our trucks in early in the morning, and the unloading team comes in at 4am, they help stock when the 6am stocking crew comes in, and we have it all stocked by the 10am opening time. The only stocking that goes on during the store hours are NoF's(Not On Floor), which is basically replenishment when stock is out or low. Not any actual stock from the truck. That is just my TRU, though. It seems to be different from store to store.

So if Hasbro had suggested $25, y'all'd be paying $30. (I say "you" because, being north of 49, I'll be paying secondary mrket prices for these if I get them.)

And from a practical point of view that's different from stocking overnight how?

It's 4 hours instead of 8? Get paid one dollar less an hour? I never said there was any difference. Hey, I'd much rather have 8 hours instead of 4. It's a store thing, not my decision. :p

Well, I now I'll be getting 2 Greenshirt packs(my troop builder number is 7 for Joe or Cobra). Already have my squad of 7 CG's from the 3 pack and single cards, so IF I get the CG pack, it'll stay MOC. But I wont be in a rush to get it.
