West Metro has been a black void for GIJoe it seems. Maybe I am just missing stuff but things found at Targets and Wal-Marts elsewhere are not hitting over here - the latest comic packs being the most recent example. I had to go to California to find the last wave (Copperhead, et al) since every Wal-mart here is jam-packed with the older comic packs. I have been finding the vehicle and DVD packs with some regularity.

My sphere of influence is West Metro: C-Mills, Kipling/I-70, Sheridan/20th Targets, and Youngsfield, Wadsworth/Colfax, Wadsworth/6th Wal-marts. I seldom make it to a TRU.

At this point I am in need of Major Bludd, Wave 9 except BATS, and the latest comic-packs. I did just order Barbecue, Hawk, and Bazooka from HTS so I guess I am good for those.

Welcome aboard!

Too bad on the HTS order 'cause I'm finding Wave 9 without BATs or Snow Serpents all over the place. The Hampden Walmart had four cases of them on Saturday. Also, the new Wave of comics are appearing all over as well. The only one that seems to fly off the shelf is the Destro Iron Grenadiers Comic Pack.

Welcome Nerf! Will keep an eye out as usual. Fett and I have been somewhat fortunate with single-pack Joe's. Don't lose hope yet

News I heard on HTS orders is that they are taking preorders but not delivering - the ship date on mine is 9/18. So I will gladly buy them at retail and cancel that order if I see them. Cant believe they are hitting everywhere but where I look. Perhaps there is a scalper lurking on this side now...

The DVD packs are great - I cant say I like all the figures but I love the Baroness in wetsuit, glowy Snake Eyes, Lady Jaye, and the Weather Dominator. That and the DVD's is well worth the price.

If anyone is heading north of Denver and wants Wave 9 (including BATS and Snow Serpents) hit the Super Wal-Mart in Longmont off of Highway 66. They had 8 pegs overflowing with wave 9 and a small amount of wave 7 mixed in.

[Nerfherder]

Hooray! I found wave 9 in its entirety at Evans/Sheridan Target today. (left the black storm shadow) Afterwards, of course I found the Joe wave 9's at a wal-mart. Joining this board seems to be a good luck charm. Now all I need is Major Bludd and the newest comic packs - Grenadier and Tripwire

I'll keep a look out for you Nerf. I've been searching high and low for a Black Head variant Destro/Grenadier pack, so I've been hunting as much as time permits. I'll pick up extras if I see them. I'll also keep looking for a Bludd.

[Nerfherder]

I don't think I really care which Destro I get. I already got that version just want the Grenadier. Thanks for the lookout!

I went to a Wal-Mart here in Greeley and saw a single card Lady Jaye. Haven't seen those in a long time. Wave 5 comic packs are in the north area just a day before I hit that store
