This thing on... *Taps mic* Ahem...
I'm probably the only guy in here, aren't I? I'm reluctant to post because there are so many "adults" that get this stuff before I do. They seem to have a neverending supply of time (no job?) and cash (job?), which doesn't make any sense to me. I buy these primarily for my son, so when I find a couple it's a really big deal. It makes me really happy to share my favorite childhood toy with my son. I'm also reluctant to post because I don't like to empowering people like this "Bobman" guy I hear so much about. Apprently "Bobman" lives here in the Wichita area. So with great reluctance, here I go... i'm trying to be a good Joe fan. TARGET - *Super Target on 21st: A few Wave 3 single cards and some Wave 1 comic packs. *Target on Armour: Same as 21st street, Cobra Legions five packs on sale for $12.48 or so. *West Side Target: Same as 21st street WAL-MART - *North 21st Wal-Mart: None, although I scored the three wal-mart exclusive star wars comic packs... *Derby Wal-Mart: Haven't checked in a few days... *East Kellog Wal-Mart: None *Pawnee Wal-Mart: None *West Kellogg Wal Mart: None *Wal-Mart on Maize: No Clue, i don't get out that far... TOYS R US - *Kellogg Toys R Us: None DILLIONS MARKETPLACE - *Rock Rd. Dillions - None (Plus to damned expensive) I did manage to find all of Wave 5 except the black Snake Eyes, today at Super Target on 21st. They only had one case. First I've ever seen of them. So I would assume that those will start coming in on a regular basis now. Here comes the fight for the Crimson Guards... I wonder if an employee snagged the black Snake Eyes, or if one of the guys I see up there regularly? I have the figures strung out across my son's bed along with the Star Wars exclusive comic packs I snagged today too. My boy is going to flip out when he gets home. I'm so excited. anywho...

Arkansas City Wal-Mart - random comic packs and a handful of Air Troopers, a pair of CG's (I bought), Rock N Roll, Snow Job
Winfield Wal-Mart - 3 Air Troopers and random comic packs Wichita Wal-Marts - all I have seen are comic 2 packs at the one at Pawnee and Broadway, East Kellogg, and North Maize. Derby had nothing at all, the new one up north had nothing when I was in there, but West Kellogg had 3 cases of wave 7 and 3 IG Destros last week. |

Hey mech-grunt! I live in Manhattan and the JC Walmart IS a good stop for GI Joe. I counted them and they seriously had 24 Vipers on the pegs the other day. It's kinda funny the Manhattan Walmart has had one case of Wave 7 in. JC has had like 8?

Has any one in KS had any luck with wave 8 or the new comic packs? My WM still full the older comic packs along with a platoon of Vipers, Wild Bills and Snake Eyes. My wife has to go Topeka tomorrow hopefully she will have luck.

I went hunting today in Wichita. Nothing unfortunately. I would gladly take some of those vipers though. I got what I could find, but we are bone dry now. It takes about a week to two weeks for anything to show up out here once it hits the west coast.
