Clive TRU had 2 Pit Commandos left, as well as a Rex and paratroopers and stuff.

I found the TRU Command 3-packs at TJ Max off Mills Civic (Sea & IG) and at Marshall's on University (Sea, Air, and IG) in West Des Moines. Also, Marshall's has DVD packs, including Arise, Serpentor Arise and Pyramid of Darkness. They had an 80's pack, but I picked it up (It's listed on the BST forum at http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...ale-trade.html).

Picked up the City Strike SE wave at toys R Us in Waterloo the other day.
Haven't seen anything else though.

Marshall's no longer has ASA or POD sets.

Clive TRU had the newer TRU exclusive Snow Serpents, but no Bench Presses.

at one point, Urbandale Target Wave 2 of the exclusives, but only had the Air Viper one left.

The SRO packs at TJ Maxx were on clearance for $7.

I checked the Tuesday Mornings for the Canadian Carded Wave 12 ARAH Joes that have been reported, but they didn't have them.

Big Lots has their PTE playsets out. $10 watchtower, $30 big wall/building type playset, $14 boat, $20 Heli.

Otherwise, just lots of the same stuff, Waves 1-3 in abundance everywhere basically.

Ames Aldi has an almost complete set of Wave 4 left (no Nanovipers left) and a White Coat Rex. I'd check your local Aldi as well, since their joes just got put out recently. $6.99 FYI, so not great, but worth it to not have to drive around a lot.

found the snarler, the blue firebat and the sting raider vehicle at cedar falls wal mart.
I didn't know that Air Raid shared the same filename as Airborne. I wonder why they just didn't call him Airborne?

Ditto on the Des Moines Aldis. Went to the one on East University near the fairgrounds and got a Night Adder and a Kamakura. Left a Charbroil, Nano Viper, and Red Fang Ninja. Haven't checked the other Aldis, but odds are they all have them!

Had a relative that works in Ames pick up that Rex today. You're like a good luck charm, please find some City Strike SE!

Picked up Resolute DVD this morning at the Walmart on Mills Civic. Noticed that they had plenty of $5 ROC stuff and at least one of each of the WM 2 pack exclusives.

Outbackk · 11-06-2009, 12:17 PM

went on a short run yesterday to see what was out...

WM off 8th St in WDM has several Rex, Para-Vipers and one Pit Commando. Also found the Snarler Cycle vehicle wave there. Left them all for you cats.
