Was in a Wallyworld the other day to see if they had anything new. Just pegs full of Renegades Firefly, Snake Eyes and Duke (who looks fat or pregnant in that armor/vest thing he has on). Then I look down at the vehicles where they had the ospry-looking black dragon (or something like that) before, and it was gone of course, but in its place was one ROC Mole Pod on sale for $17.00!!
Stuff they clearanced and sold to Ross a year or two ago is now showing up on their shelves at a higher price than when they first sold it. No new vehicles, no 30th figures (doesn't matter what wave you want- they ain't got it). To be living in one of the 10 biggest growth areas in the country for the past 15 years and next to Charlotte (a "world class" city), the Joe selection does not scream "world-class customers base and selection". Sigh. |

The Mole Pods were probably found in the back room somewhere. One of the local walmarts n my area did the same thing a month or so ago, then a couple of weeks ago, the mole pod was n the clearance aisle for $9. But I have been lucky one the local walmarts got wave 3 in.

Well, I live in Charlotte and I've been scoring wave 3 and 4 at multiple Wal-Marts over the last three weeks. I'm not sure where you are in the area, but your experience really isn't indicative of all the local Wal-marts, although some are far better than others.

I'm east of town in Union County. There are two Wal-marts, three targets and nothing to buy.

I never found the black HISS V at ROSS. A couple days ago I found one at my Walmart for $13.00. It still had the ROSS sticker on the front of the box half scratched off. I picked it up. I really like this version but the brown & red versions suck.
I've also been finding wave 4 at Walmart. I'm almost done with them. Just need about 4 more Sci-Fi's. I love Walmart. I hate all the other stores especially Toys R Us. |

One by me suddenly found one of those light blue Firebat things from ROC out of nowhere. It is currently the only Joe item they have for sale. No figs, no vehicles, no stupid 12" dolls, nothing.
