North Carolina G.I. Joe Sightings

Axelay · 05-15-2011, 02:07 AM

I've been checking Walgreens all around Raleigh but haven't seen anything newer than wave 2 in those. I have not yet checked CVS, as I haven't heard any success stories with those stores...

Shadow Tracker finally came back in stock on HTS, so I went ahead and ordered. At this point, I am very skeptical that I will see one in stores at all.

If anyone should happen to come across a Marvel Universe Cable while you're out hunting, please let me know (or even pick it up). I am a super die-hard Cable fan, and I really want this figure.

Ever searched for something for so long that you actually look right past it when you finally find it? Well, that was me earlier today when, much to my complete surprise, I found another Low Light on an endcap at K-Mart in Rocky Mount. No Shadow Tracker, naturally, but at least I got shipping confirmation today from HTS about that one. I'm almost ready for the next wave now.

Got my Shadow Tracker from HTS today. Am finally done with wave 4. On to waves 5 and 6...

5-post chain combo! I guess I'll just keep monopolizing this page.

I just picked up Crazylegs, Viper, Temple Snake Eyes, and Croc Master at Wal-Mart at Brier Creek in Raleigh. Only saw 1 of each (so 0 left, sorry), and no Rock Vipers or Iron Grenadiers. I was shocked that someone left a Viper, though.

I'll break the chain.

I found that wave last week at the WM in Wake Forest, and oddly enough both Croc Masters were gone. I helped myself to the army builders. I wouldn't mind getting a few more Vipers and IGs, but I would prefer Wave 5 to start hitting hard.

After reading Axelay's last post I went to check the Walmart on Glenwood Ave in north Raleigh, but nothing there. They haven't stocked any G.I. Joe at all in quite a few months.

That store has become such a disappointment. Back when I used to live up on Glenwood, I'd find stuff there all the time. Now I can't remember when I saw anything new there.

Found one lone POC Croc Master today @ Walmart on Sardis Road North in Charlotte. There were 3 or 4 pegs for figures and a spot on the shelf for Bravo (?) vehicles. They must've just put those out as I swear I didn't see the pegs last week.

The Wal-Mart on Hanes Mall Blvd in Winston-Salem has 6 prgs of wave 5. I got one Cobra Trooper and left the rest. Plenty of the entire wave there to be had.
