GIJOE Retaliation Movie Toys Found At US Retail

Retaliation figures found and purchased at a Meijer in Fort Wayne Indiana. Pics soon

Whaaaa?

Still on the road. I'll post when I'm home. Just one case. Left the extra snake eyes, duke and roadblock

Come again?

I can see it now: "Oh, wait: they were just Rise of Cobra figures. My browser auto corrected when I was trying to type that..."

All joking aside, my local Meijer stores still have Destro figures sitting on the pegs from RoC.

Better drive like a bat out of hell! This, I have to see...

And if you don't have pics,hopefully you have a flame retardant suit

^ lol

Or bunker lol

This is the second report I've read, and the timings about right...

Okay but what colour are Joe Trooper and Cobra Commander?

Lacist.

I dunno... there's been no pre-orders.

Unless this is some huge shipping and stocking error...

without a receipt.... and without pics....

It never happened. Right there with you.

Avengers figures were hitting Walmart before pre-orders went up at BBTS and HTS.
I'm just being optimistic...

I have a feeling this will end up being a joke.

I'm always hesitant when someone says "pics to follow". Maybe I'm just more tech savvy, but I can post an image from a purchase to about 200 places online within a minute of having done it.

Of course, right now the OP is innocent until proven trolling.

Cams on cell phones are pretty darn handy...

I kind of believe it as I mentioned in another thread the 2 Walmarts I went to yesterday are completely void of GI Joe figures and vehicles. Just the 12" ones were on the bottom shelf.

I'm not accusing anyone of lying. It's not that simple. Just saying it doesn't add up. So if he did in fact get them at Meijer my guess was he
wasn't supposed to be able to. Like accidental stocking/shipping. But I could be wrong.

Last time this happened the person had bought them from China carded and tried to say he got them in a store and then that person disappeared and never posted again. But we'll see heheheheh.

Again, nothing against the op. I'm just covering all the bases until there are pics and a receipt. heheheheh. Before people go rushing off to their local Meijers only to be confronted with 24hr pillow and snack buying options. heheheh.

fake or not, this got my attention

Hmmm... that does make it more plausible. Avengers is a bigger animal but the film is REALLY close to release whereas Retaliation is a ways off still. So that could have something to do with it.

AGAIN... I'm not calling anyone a liar. Just trying to iron out the bits.

Wow, last I saw Meijer only had RoC figures, will ahve to investigate, and if I find anything I have a camera phone ;)

Alright then. Fair enough.

Hehe if true how many people are running out to Meijer?

This thread is Henry Rollins approved.

Innocent until proven trolling...lol. nice.

i cant wait to see the pics, and the look of disappointment on my wife's face when I start buying figures again. I dont know which one has me more exited.

Well, don't get me wrong... if it turns out he doesn't have a receipt and no one else finds any... nothing can help him. He'll be torn apart by everyone who reads this thread. So I figure everyone should try and reserve their
harshness for if and when that happens. Otherwise it's all apologies and
back peddling.

Alot and most of those will be people that said they weren't going to buy Retaliation figures.

Epic thread in the brewing...

i just found 13,500 retaliation figures at walmart!

Sorry it took so long. I've never posted pics on here so didn't know how and figured I'd wait till I got home as opposed to while driving

now show the good figures!

Show the RECEIPT!!!! heheheh.

I'll grab a pic of them all laid out here in a sec.

Looks shopped....




Kidding Nice find, I wonder if this is a mistake, or if we're going to see these start popping up now (it is REALLY early seeing the movie premier isn't for another 3 months)

well there is the pics of the figures.

Well I'll be damned... Some peeps from Hasbro are going to be shitting bricks over this one I am sure...

im eating coffee cake!

Answers I am anxious for with these pics:

Zartan's piping colour

Trooper's cape/mask colour

Cobra Commander's colour

i see 5 figs in that stack, what else you got?

I went to two meijer stores this morning. One had them, one didn't, so very well could be a mistake. Best thing was, they rang up for under 7 bucks. Plus they had a few new GI Joe shirts as well.

I remember the Blue/Brown differences in the Trooper.

Refresh my mind, what are the CC and Zartan changes?

that last one didn't work so here goes.

under 7 bucks is a huge win, my advice is to put em on ebay now before they hit the stores...

receipt???

there's the ones I was looking for!!! my man
