Well, I found seven cases of wave 2 today!!! PM me and I'll let you know where. I'm just paranoid that scalpers roam the boards for clues.

First, I am not a scalper. Second I hate scalpers. Third, scaplers are the devil.

So, where d'ya find Wave 2 cases? I have a full set already, however,my Lady Jay looks like s__t so I haven't opened it. I want to get a new LJ with a better paint app.

Well, I hope my PMs helped some of you out that were missing Wave 2. As for last night, I hit 3 Wal-marts and a Target. Nothing. One of the Wal-marts has completely gotten rid of GI Joes except for the old 12" ones. I've seen that at a couple of Wal-marts. No Joes whatsoever. This one is the one off of Hampden and Quebec.

For the other two Walmarts, I "happened" to be there when the pallets came out and found nothing but Spider-man toys. They are the one off of Parker Ave and near Arapahoe. I then visited that Target off of Arapahoe and found nothing there too.

You know every time I hit those last three stores I find nothing. I always had this feeling that Eplanet Toys sends their guys out and cleans up the Wal-marts in the area. Or maybe there's a higher concentration of collectors over there. What do you guys think?

I actually live right there at Parker & Arapahoe, and I know the guys at ePlanet too - they actually don't buy anything from the stores for resell. They used to buy stuff from the scalpers a few years back, but the way the market is, it all comes direct from the manufacturer now. The only Joes they got in was wave 1, and I got my case there. They haven't had any 25th Joes for sale since summer (which sucks!).

I just think that either I'm missing the scalpers or the stores haven't even got them in. The parker/arap got wave 2 in about 2 weeks ago, becuase I found like a dozen of the CC, SE & SS from the case but nothing else. There's a guy on ebay selling them, and his location is "HOT WHEELS, CO" so I'm guessing he's getting to the cases.

As for the area, I know 5 other guys that collect/scalp that live down by DTC, so I'm sure that's part of the problem too...

Hey fellas. I'm off of Buckley and Smoky Hill. I usually post over at Joecustoms, time permitting.

I can totally verify that we have scalpers in the area because one of the Hot Wheels guys I used to run into all the time admitted it to me. He basically told me he pays for his HW by scalping other lines. He practically shoved me out of the way to get to some Star Wars stuff (which I don't even collect) and the back of his car was FULL of boxes ready to be shipped. Real nice, huh?

Anyway, I don't hunt much anymore because, well, lately it's not called hunting. It's called wasting gas. I got my wave 2 over at the Walmart off of Exposition and Abilene. That was about a month ago. I have managed to piece together a whole wave 1 and 2 but wave three is no where to be found. They're not being scalped around here because they just don't exist.

When I do go hunting--maybe once a week anymore--I usually hit the stores early. 6:30 am early. That's earlier than the scalpers. If you guys are looking for anything, LMK. I only collect Joe and I really only want one of each. I'd be happy to help out when I can.

Good luck!

I only collect the 25ht Anniversary stuff. At this point, I'm just looking for 3 Cobra Red Ninjas and a Zartan.
