I bought a Resolute Duke, Resolute Cobra Trooper and Firefly at the Fridley Target friday night.
Anyone else notice how the GI Joe section is getting smaller in various toy dept? |

Went on a hunt today throughout South Minneapolis, Minneapolis proper, and parts of St. Paul. Looks like wave 13 has hit nearly all Targets in the area. I was able to pick up a complete set (minus Duke, how amusing), although the majority came from the Edina Super Target. I saw mostly Torch everywhere. Boy that's an ugly figure. Ha.
Every Wal-mart I hit had nothing of interest, just tons of Wave 9 and revisions. I was hoping to find DVD Pack #5 and/or the new vehicles. Has anyone spotted any of these (I believe one person has found the DVD pack) ? |

I have not seen Dvd set #5 or new vehicles, but I did find Deep Six/RNR and IG/Viper comic 2 packs at the Brooklyn Center Walmart. I've also found every figure from wave 13 minus Blowtorch. Did wave 12 skip us?

Thanks for the Fridley Wal-Mart 5-Pack sighting. I picked up the Dusty pack and the Quick Kick pack. They still have 2 of each in stock as of 3pm. However, only the Dusty pack I bought had the web gear and the other 2 they had did not.
I also picked up the Transformers Animated Shockwave. They still have 1 more of those if anyone needs one. |

The the "Downtown Target" today. I believe it's on Marquette (hope I spelled that right!).
Plenty of UBPs, and Flint/Pilot Scarlett galore. No damn Eels though! Rabble! |

Were you the winning bidder? If so, I just printed out the label and your Joe's are shipping Tuesday afternoon. Also, why don't we get more sightings from that side of town?

Hey, glad to have you join us Minnesotans. I've read some of your posts in other threads; you seem to be a smart, level headed dude. Welcome. No worries on the retail geography; I've lived here all my life and I'm still figuring that out. What brings you here? Work? |

Vesta - yep it was me, all right. Funny my neighbors just brought this foxhound mix home from the shelter over the weekend...she's pretty much the coolest dog I've ever seen and seems to be getting along pretty well with the rest of the neighborhood's canines.
It was a privilege to participate - thanks for setting that up. I kind of get around all over the metro (and into Western WI) pretty heavy each week with my work schedule - and sometimes get a little me time on the weekends, so here goes: 12/13 ESP Target at Suburban and White Bear Ave, St. Paul - wave 7-8. I think that must be a dumping ground for Target returns because they have piles and piles of Cobra vipers and drivers and of course Wild Bill figures. 12/13 NSP Target at McKnight & Hwy 36 - Wave 10 - 11 12/14 Oakdale Target at Highway 5 and Inwood - Wave 13 12/14 Target at Valley Creek Road & 494 (Woodbury) - Wave 10, 11 - scored a blue Wraith - which I am not selling OR trading. 12/14 Target Stillwater - nothing but must be stocking Wave 13 Both K-Marts at White Bear and 694 (Maplewood) and 10th Street and 694 (Oakdale) have Cobra Legions and GI Joe five-packs, VAMPs, and quite a few single carded figs from waves 4, 5, 7, and 8. Picked up a Shipwreck figure at Oakdale. All GI Joe 10% off. I've been coming up empty on the Patton-style Hawk with the brown jacket; anyone seen one of those around? I'd think Wal-Marts would be overflowing with those around town... |

I must have been right behind you - but in reverse order. I don't even think OPH (stillwater) had a peg for single carded figs. Do you not hit WalMart's? I personally hate that store, and generally only stop there if there's an exclusive (that's supposed to be out nationwide) but I hear that's the only place right now to find the Sting Raider & Ghost Hawk.
