You can find most of the last GI-Joe releases in Paris at some collectors shop. I would recommend:
COMICS (boulevard St Germain) Sorbonne or Pantheon Tube station Luluberlu (Oberkampf tube station) they usually have quite everything from vintage till the last waves; i bought a terrordrome there and the last vipers and cobra troopers a few weeks ago. Just take the Eurostar, London/Paris takes 1.30 hours only or place orders via the internet Claude and Samuel at Comics are great guys, they sometimes buy their stock off us If you like toy collecting across the board, Luluberlu often have some really nice vintage pieces. |

Sadly not, otherwise the line would have been on show to attract a buyer. Sometimes lines are shown with a Minimum Order Quantity for those who wish to bring a line or product across, this is usually how retailers here end up with exclusives.

It’s hard to believe that these products will not be sold in Europe this year. So, I decided to send a message to the USA office of Hasbro asking further about this.
On January 25, 2012 I asked the Hasbro Consumer Affairs team this question: “Will toys for G.I. Joe Retaliation be made available for sale in the United Kingdom or Germany this year?” On January 31, 2012 Bonnie responded, saying: “Thank you for your interest in Hasbro, and our GI Joe product line. Since many revisions may occur prior to a product release, information, such as release dates, possible new items and where to buy future products, is not available in advance for distribution. We ask that you visit our web site often for the most current product information. We appreciate your understanding and your interest.” *Dodge* They neither confirmed nor denied that these products will be sold in Europe this year. |

Well, I think that the "sins" on RoC Toy line was wrong distribution- some waves never were available here in México, sometimes a single store has almost 100 units of the same item, who would buy too many Baroness? And also the price was very high to cover the licensing Hasbro-Paramount, then also when doing new supplies were the same waves that were sold out, NEVER renewing the other waves, anyway, I think Hasbro needs to rethink how to distrubted by area and I think sometimes are lazy to look and undertand each area market.
