please understand this is posted in a sightings forum, not the general area. these comments are therefore specific to our area and not meant to be reflective of the overall line everywhere. in my area in particular the overstock of the reissue waved killed us when it came time for the later waves to hit the shelves as they were overflowing with stock that was not moving. the last couple waves took a VERY long time to complete for me and others in maryland.
so before responding, please understand the context within which it was written. those here were clear in my undertanding where as members not in maryland may not.

you seem to be very touchy. i was not demeaning nor intended my comments to be so. i'm sure your quite smart and indeed know what the sightings forums are about.
again, the initial response was in response to a regional specific comments, not some baseless claim against the entire line everywhere nor was the conversation going in that direction until you felt the need to take it there. lets leave that conversation for the thread you suggested, the target sales figures and others.

On a side note...let's keep the bickering to the main threads. I get enough of that stuff outside of the MD pages and I hate to see it come here. I don't wanna take sides because I like both you guys...but c'mon kiss and make up

And don't bother asking a Wal-Mart employee for help, they'll just shrug their shoulders or have no idea of what you're talking about. My guess is within the coming weeks we will start seeing them. I need that Night Creeper and Monkeywrench. I've heard from one of my buddies at TRU at Columbia Crossing in Columbia, MD that they get in RoC merchandise like every other day or at least four times a week. I look here because they have that 2 for $10.99 sale that can happen again if they want people to keep coming there. Target is the best place to pick up new stuff and the only Target with the $8.69 per fig price sticker is the Cherry Hill Rd. one here in Silver Spring. Its funny because they are the third place I look when I'm out. I'm sure that Resolute Snake Eyes (City Strike) is coming out at retailers in September so keep a close eye as it may pop up randomly then disappear. BTW, last Friday I was lucky enough to pick up the ML 2-pack Iron Man w Maria Hill(hooray!!). I am looking forward to some of the cobra vehicles as well as the Snowcat coming out next year. That gives me time to save $$$ for more important things. Last edited by blackman2005; 08-30-2009 at 09:46 PM.. |

i agree. less bickering, more sightings
funny thing is i did not get the target coupon when i saw gi joe, they weren't even there. seems like poor planning to put out coupon after the debut. the walmart 2 packs actually look good given the character choices.

Not really. Only Columbia's is not at that price. All of the other Target stores in this area are at the absurd price of $8.69.

undoubtedly it will get clearance, just like 25th/me did. when that happens, i'll try to pick up some canon fodder but i have bad luck catching clearance sales in my area. they get cleaned out QUICK.

I agree...the newness of the ROC figures has worn off. There are still a select few scattered throughout the line to keep me interested but overall it's a major pass. I do love the Elite Viper though.... that is one bad ass figure. It's the perfect Cobra Commando. Funny thing is I like the ROC versions of BBQ, Firefly, Deep Six (Torpedo) and Snow Job. Those were some of the best 25th figures out there IMO. I know they are just repaints but they work for me.
