Iowa G.I. Joe Sightings

Hey Sgt. Mutt,
You need to check out the Altoona or Urbandale Target they have like 5 of each Pilot Scarlett and Cobra Flint. Those two figs seem to be the new peg warmers most of the places I go.

Dubuque also had the fifth and final DVD pack a week ago. I've been looking forward to it, but I'm mostly just interested in Alpine. The two that they had were pretty crappy. Not merely Alpine, but ALL the figures in those packs had sloppy (sometimes even incomplete) paint apps. I skipped them, figuring I'll pick them up elsewhere. No surprise, the "Best of episodes" DVD Packs sold out very quickly. Still, it should be an indication that the latest DVD pack is slowly trickling out to stores.

Still no Wave 12 or new vehicles in Dubuque, though. I'm thinking of checking Cedar Rapids pretty soon.

I need 5 eels and 2 python patrol officers from wave 11 and blowtorch from wave 13... then im pretty much good for the current stuff i want.

The Urbandale Super Target had like seven or eight pegs FULL of Wave 11 Joes. Like bendicoot said, most of them were Pilot Scarletts or Cobra Flints. But they had all of the others in the wave, too.

If anyone is still looking for Paravipers there were 3 or 4 at the Altoona Target last night around 6:00

Well, guys, don't know if any of you have seen it at Target in Des Moines, but up in Ames they put the Ultimate Battle Pack clearanced at $38 and change. I am very tempted to get one, but still on the fence. Just a heads up.
