I noticed the other day the way they have their True Heroes stock in a whole aisle with TONS of selection and great items that would be a customerizer's wet dream.
So I picked up a package and turned it over, not realizing that True Heroes is Toys R Us' own brand. Make sense now why you can never find GI Joe in the stores and none of the TRU's around me even have a space dedicated for them. |

Their vehicles are awesome!! I have several of them, and am quite happy with adding them to the Joe arsenol. Too bad the figures and weapons suck.
I knew they were TRU's own brand. Never had problems finding joes there either (except waves 1-2 of POC and the most recent 30th stuff). Heck, there's 6 pegs at the one closest to me right now (no vehicles sadly). |

Saw the Black Friday ad for TRU and they are the first one to actually advertise Joes in their holiday flyers. In this case a POC Mech for $10.

The nearest ones in Rapid City South Dakota the last time I stopped in was about fifteen years ago. No Joe but plenty Star Wars, the trip really was'nt worth it.

I havent been in there for a couple weeks, but 1982 is right the TRU in Rapid had 4 arctic Destro's last I looked. Walmart on the other hand gets joes in on a regular basis and Target just got in the Renegades wave not too long ago. TRU if they get anything in new gets picked clean fairly quickly.
