Quick question, looking for any possible intel if known.
I'm seeing the new Retro wave showing up at Walmart. There hasn't been any of the other waves beyond the Gung-Ho/Destro wave. With the new wave hitting stores now, I'm wondering what will become of the other waves that never showed up. Snake Eyes, Storm Shadow, Zartan, etc. Any word on where these might show up? Ross? Ollie's? There has to be a ton of these sitting in some warehouse that never got shipped out. |

I don't see the SE/SS Walmart retro wave showing up at outlet stores since they're sold out everywhere. They're most likely done and weren't produced in numbers like the first wave that still warms pegs across the country.

He was on Pulse a few weeks or a month ago but not much elsewhere. |

Don't forget they were much more sought out figures or characters too, first four of the figures were unnecessary except Gung-Ho.

Ollie's? There has to be a ton of these sitting in some warehouse that never got shipped out. Both of my local Walmarts have not cleared out 100% of their Joe product. It's just GONE. Not even in the clearance aisles by the Garden Center. I'd guess that there will be lots of Siegies, Lady Jaye, Snake Eyes, Zartan, and Storm Shadow showing up at Ollies and Ross anytime now. What do we think about the other figures that never hit retail? Will they show up at discount shops too? Big Ben, Shooter, Nunchuck, Firefly, Helix, Mole Rat, Desert Snake Eyes, Arctic Bat, Shockwave, Tunnel Rat, Night Force Tunnel Rat, Crimson Viper, Crimson Alley Viper... Very few of these ever seemed to show up in bulk. |

Nah - it was just an honest misunderstanding. I don't need any apology. It's all good.

If you're happy Mal, I am - I think we all overinterpret sometimes - so Rooted, I get it too - and hope we all can just enjoy this last dry spell of primarily speculation until an apparently banner YoJoe June befalls us - per all the teases it should be amazeballs!

The sales numbers for the latter retro figures were just as high as the earlier ones but not as high as the latest waves (Duke, Scarlett, Recondo, Eels, Snow Serpent, Beachhead), which is probably due to not being an exclusive. Given the exclusives never really made it to the stores regularly minus the CG, I am pretty confident they will show up somewhere this fall. No way Hasbro made less figures for SS, SE, CG and Zartan. 3 of the 4 are still on the Walmart site so they still have some to sell. Even Pulse had SS and Zartan last month.
