I got one a couple of weeks ago and I actually like it more than I thought I would. I have 8 of the original, all in different stages of completeness. Didn't think I would be interested in one of the new ones but overall I'm glad I picked it up.
The price is a little steep (TRU) but compared to some of the other vehicles we've been offered lately it is totally worth it. My concern is that people are going to wait for these to be clearanced or show up at the discounters. We've gotta stop doing that and Hasbro has to start offering better stuff (like the Eaglehawk).

Just checked The TRU in Brooklyn, Flatbush, No new joes, but the section was supprisingly full of wave 1 figures and re stocked with vehicles;
1 Ret jeep, 1 Clutch vehicle, a couple of PoC Black Dragon Wings, half a dozen Ret Hiss tanks, a couple red PoC Hiss tanks, a Fang Boat and a few Tomahawks. Grabbed another Tomahawk for my Godson's birthday. I wouldn't have asked but a kid asked me if I needed help. He said there was no new stock to come out but they were told to get out all of the old Joe stock out and put it on the shelf. Though, this sounds more like it was due to the DVD release rather than any new wave coming in. The reason I say that is the prices were back up on the old Retaliation vehicles. I'm guessing they hope to sell some old stock at full price now that the DVD is out. |

Found a Colton & a Jaye at Kmart out in Clifton Park yesterday. First time I had seen either in the wild. Wife had an interview at RPI so I tagged along and did a little hunting while she was there. I don't remember exactly which one but I also found a bunch of PoC/ 30th at a Price Chopper and wave 2 Shippy and a trooper at Dollar General.
Was hoping to find some 3packs with firefly/ trooper/ SS but it looks like they are long gone at Target. Can't quite bring myself to pay TRU prices yet. |

I checked the Riverhead TRU yesterday and saw nothing. My girlfriend is checking the Lake Grove TRU today for me.

I figure the Northeast won’t get them this week but maybe the week after. I hope I'm wrong and it is this week.
