Ok, figures this would happen to me. I saw the DVD packs at Target the past couple of weeks, but I never purchased them because I was on the fence about repurchasing repaints. The only figure I am interested in is the Lady Jaye (remake) since she's more cartoon accurate than the first lady jaye released in wave 2. She kept begging and begging me to take her home but I couldn't see myself spending 20 dollars for essentially one figure that I wanted out of the entire DVD pack. However, fast forward to today, now I think I finally want to take the plunge before she's gone for good.
Of course, now that I am actually interested in getting a DVD pack, Target no longer carries them in my area. So I am wondering, is this a wide-spread thing or just endemic to my area in the U.S.? Anyone else still seeing the DVD packs at Target? I would get them at my local Toys R Us store, but I refuse to pay 25 dollars instead of the 20 dollars Target is asking for them. Maybe I should try a Walmart? Of course, my walmarts are really bad about not stocking Joes here in San Diego =(. |

you might want to try ebay I saw some people selling them individual instead of paying 20 you can pay 5-7 for one it might work out better for you.

wait, you are wondering why a store is out of stock on a GI Joe item? My targets, wal marts and toys r us still get the DVD packs in. You can probably pick up a lady jaye on ebay for cheaper than getting the whole pack.

I was going to do the same thing to get the lady Jaye figure but last time I checked she was selling for $10-$15 alone. In fact when those packs first came out the parts were all selling like that, that $25 DVD set parted out could bring you $35. I just broke down and paid $20 at Wal-Mart for the set.

yes, Target stopped carrying them. they also seem to have stopped carrying single pack figures, comic pack figures, and the vehicles, because Target by my house doesn't have any of those either.
