You see enough of their boxes at any toy store.. they can practically open up their own toy store.

Yeah but all the Joe sections of the toy stores would have huge signs saying "Coming Soon" or "Out of Stock"

I hit the Kernersville Target and Wally today in hopes that something had been stocked since briking had been there.

Both Stores had 1 Zartan each and 5 packs (Wally is down to only 2 legions packs) Neither store had pegs for joes either.

I'm probably gonna try to hit Winston-Salem tomorrow on my way to work

So I hit TRU in Winston-Salem today....they had 1 Beachhead. But it was not a total waste of a day! Captainamerica on Yojoe told me there's a new comic/toy store in the same shopping center.

It's called "ssalefish" They had a couple of cases of old 80's toys, some Joes and a lot of new toys and comics. I dug through their $4 bin and found a 97 Silver Mirage missing some parts (Main bike seat, windshields, missles) but for $4 it was worth it

If I hadn't of gotten lost I woulda tried the Target on University

Wave 5 showed up at Wal-Mart for about 6 hours until it sold out and hasn't been re-stocked. The Comic Two Packs haven't showed up at all. Target, K-Mart and TRU hasn't gotten in any Wave 4 or Wave 5 stuff ever. This is very frustrating! It's especially tough to Joe-search because of the Christmas holidays. All stores should have a private V.I.P. section and parking area for collectors --- parents and kids wouldn't be allowed to interfere with our Joe collecting!

Sounds like you live close to me. I just got back from the Wal-Mart in brevard(the one next to sliding rock) They have almost 100. I'm not kidding. I got the last Crimson guard and flash figures.(well on second thought there was one flash left.)
They didn't have the new destro or Snow Job.
They have a Butt Load of wave 3 there and some wave 5(the reboxed ones)
It's like a gold mine. Just don't tell to many people around this area I don't want every body to know about my little spot.

I hit Kernersville again last night and in the 24 hours (or less) since I was at Wally world last, they went from having 2 Legions packs and a Zartan with no 25th pegs around to 2 Legions packs and a Trooper on a 25th peg.

I'm guessing they got a case of Wave 3 revision

Also hit Target in K-ville and Target and Wally on Wendover in GSO....Absolutely nothing in any of them, except for 5 packs

Add Target on University in Winston-Salem to that list of stores with nothing

I went back to the Wal-Mart that still had tags on the pegs, but no figs (see earlier post). Now, these pegs have no tags. So, I ask the dept manager if they will be getting anymore of the 25th Joes. She's says no, that when she tried to reorder they came up as unreplishable, meaning they can't get them.

Anyone know what's going on? Did the sku numbers change or something? Maybe they're still trying to order case assorments that are no longer being produced? Anyone know anything?

[Shogi]

I think there's supposed to be some big reset in January for Wal-marts and stores that currently don't carry Joes will be stocking them for the reset, maybe that's why they can't order anything new right now

Maybe...I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

The distribution of these and TF's has been ridiculous.

Still nothing here as of yesterday.

[lookinglasself]

Went out looking for restocks today and came up empty as always. Nothing but CC, Buzzer, and Lady Jaye. I went to Target hoping to see the Legions 5-pack on clearance (as reported..), but it was still full price. They had about 12 of them. Argh.
