On another note. The Targets around here have posted several in store only signs over the years. Telling collectors that they put merchandise out throughout the day so that everyone has an equal chance. They also for awhile did limit the amount you could buy of any one toyline.

I know the Target by me will sometimes restock shelves in the late afternoon.

I love G.I. Joes, this is a G.I. Joe board, not a collector's board. I'm not an average parent, I'm a parent who happens to love G.I. Joes, and probably more than most of you, from the sound of it.
I've held more Joes in my hand than you probably know existed. I've followed this line since it's inception. For you to even remotely assume that you some how "love" G.I.Joe more than me, or anyone else here for that matter...is complete horse crap. From the sounds of it, you're a jaded dad who wants to show his kid how cool Joe is but can't find any. I guess there's a Ying for every Yang. My buddy Apac is the proud father of an amazing 7 year old who is ALL ABOUT G.I.Joe...why? Because Apac doesn't run around the interwebs fighting "toy terrorists bent on total domination of your local toy aisle"...if he can't find something, he uses the internet, and Wa-La! Toys arrive at his home! Can you believe it?!? I know! Quote:
Do you love G.I. Joes because you collect them, or do you collect them because you love them? If it's the former, you shouldn't buy them at all.

And way to take it down to a 3rd grade level! Just because you're "for the kids", doesn't mean you have to speak their lingo. We're big boys, we can handle it checkmate |

edit: Loves it more than the rest of us? Oh come on. I've been collecting the line non-stop since I was a kid. I've never jumped off the bandwagon except for that short time period that they're WERE NOT any made.

re-read the thread. the judges score cards say "UNANIMOUS DECISION". this is straight comedy. i'm not trying to offend the japanese but myotic response is like a citizen of hiroshima giving the finger to the plane that dropped the bomb on him. geeeez. REMINDER, you got your ass kicked, visual aid for HARD HEADED; the way i remember it on the playground, that was what the kid who just got knocked out said right before he got knocked out again. dude,...

No, I'm pretty sure that the folks at Hasbro created the original 25 figures for the fans as a celebration of 25 years dedication. When the demand overwhelmed the supply they went with their hidden plan B and started releasing more figures to snag up all the money in the world. Mwah-hah-haaaa...
The movie, on the other hand, came from the underestimated success of the Transformers Movie. |
