On a positive note, the Altoona TRU has been selling the Eaglehawk. They are on at least the third case of them, as I have seen them sell out a few times now. As for figures, just a few wave one cast offs still hanging around. Target has done their latest reset, and no Joe section. Walmart still has lots of wave 1 and a few wave 2 figures, but they are gearing up for a rest.

So pretty much my local Wal Mart had reorganized. NO PEGS for GI JOES. All of the wave 1 & 2 joes were sitting on a shelf with no price tags. I used the price scanner and they rang up at around $10 a figure still. I then was walking to the checkout and saw a HUGE line of clearance items, mainly toys by the registers... odd. I found two Vehicles. Selling for $11 each.
http://www.hisstank.com/forum/attach...1&d=1376274786 http://www.hisstank.com/forum/attach...1&d=1376274786 I didn't pick anything up, I had everything I wanted. The Toys R Us is WELL STOCKED on Joe, recently got a new shipment in for the store but NO NEW JOES. Here's is what that situation looked like. http://www.hisstank.com/forum/attach...1&d=1376274786 So that sums up my traveling and hunting. Nothing new on the shelves here in NW PA. What a bummer. The TRU did have an Eaglehawk, but that's been there for a month now. Such a shame to have this many figures (not bad ones either) just sitting around. HASBRO should have really started a bit stronger though with the initial retaliation showing of figures. I liked them, I have one of every one... and two of some. I just feel like the "Ultimate" Wave could have done some good things for the brand and changed the way it's perceived by major retail stores if it were released earlier.... but then again... the movie getting pushed back kind of threw a lot of stones in the water. Good news... The Movie seems to be selling REALLY well everywhere I go. |

I live in Meadville, PA and usually make the drive to Erie, PA just to check that Toys R Us. Typically they stay pretty stocked, but I've only EVER seen an entire wave there one time. Last I checked, they didn't have any new figures, but they did have a few Eaglehawks. Not the best Toys R Us for Joe... Regardless, first one to spot the 3.5 wave / ultimate wave in the wild in PA wins... nothing. But you do get bragging rights hahaha.
well, I was just up at the lake on vacation this weekend and thought about stopping at that tru, but we didnt have time. glad I didnt miss anything.

Oh awesome! Hope you had a good time. I put a pre-order in over at BBTS and hopefully I get the wave. I think I'm done searching for Joe now. I have a feeling that even if the brand dies, it'll be temporary until the 3rd movie comes out. I'm SURE we'll see some figures then...

Did Retal. figures ever get down to 70% off at any Targets? Seems like the Plymouth Meeting Target took 90% of their clearance stuff off the shelves after the reset and as of today if you punch in the DPCIs of the recent clearanced Joe and DC figures on their scanner they come up as item not found instead of showing you the latest clearance price. I had found a HISS Tank for 70% off at some Target a couple weeks ago but the figures were still 50% off.

Managed to pick up a Cobra Combat Ninja at the Reading TRU. That was the only new fig they had, but that means they at least got the new case. They also had the Masterpiece Acid Storm, again only one, and a price tag for MP Soundwave, but none in stock. Had he been in stock, I'd definitely have gotten one. Hopefully more of each will be in stock shortly.
