I do hit up Shelbyville off and on. They haven't gotten in anything new nor do they have anything on order except DVD packs. Their new planogram does not call for vehicles :(

Well,
I managed to find the few Star wars characters I wanted. Mostly for parts for customizing Joes. There is very little to see as far as Joes. The walmart here maybe gets one or two cases of Joes a month, has not had a single vehicle or comic pack after wave 3, and no DVd packs either. But damn if they don't have half an aisle for Speed Racer. Makes me so mad. I live in GIJoe dead zone. |

Too many of these seem to be repaints and repacks. What are the few cool token figures to look for?

As of now, nothing is scarce. The ones people want though are the quad gunner for troop building and Rex to lead them. The good thing about SW is that there really isn't anything to chase or HTF as they fill the niche market. Thus lots of stuff sits because scalpers can't resell them, unlike GIJOEs. |

I have a friend who collects, he's broke almost all the time. Yesterday we were on a toy run and walked into TRU, and saw three sections of a shelf dedicated to the new Clone Wars Stuff. By contrast the same TRU has precise one peg for comic packs and one peg for singles (that they replace with Indiana Jones pegs when there are no Joes in stock, ie. 99% of the time)

Well , I hate to say it , but you are just one parent and one who happens to know what GI Joe is about , whereas there are several parents, especially the mothers who think otherwise ........1 out of every 3 thimes I go hunting for action figures, i'll usually pverhear a parent say "No nothing with guns" ,"No military things" ,or "That's too violent".........
Why else do you think alot of other military toys sit on the shelves all the time ? ....like the BBI, 21century , and the generic stuff at TRU ...
