Walmart Canton: No new Joes, just craploads of revision stuff. New DX size Transformers Universe Sideswipe and Silverstreak were in however.

Novi Toys R Us had nothing of any interest to me. They did have newer 5 packs if one needed them still.

thank you for constantly saving me some drive time to canton...

Let’s see Genesee County Toy Run…

Wed

Davison Meijer (I-69 and Irish Road) – Wave 9 Torpedo Revision Wave, IJ Wave Temple of Doom (scored Mola Rahm and Temple Guard)

Burton Walmart (Court St & Belsay) – Jack Squat no Wave 10s, 1 Red Hulk Black Spidey $15 overpriced. !@#$ oh and TF Animated Swoop, EG BB, Sentinel Prime.

East Flint Target (I-69 and Center) – Rattlers and Conquests no Wave 10

Thursday
Flint TRU – Nothing, no Greenshirts or CG Battlepacks. Wave 1 vehicles, Wave 4 Comic Packs

Flint Wal-mart (Corunna and Linden) – Wave 9 Revisions, Wave 1 Vehicles, Wave 2-4 Comic Packs

Flint K-Mart (Miller and I-75) 1 Sharc Tooth…pondered and left. Noticed the new Sonic is PACKED

Flint Target (Miller Road, my favorites store) 2 Red Hulk Black Spideys (SNORE!) IJ Battle Packs (smelling a custom) Rattler, Conquest, sparse CPs and a few 25th Vipers.

Hill Road Meijers (US23 and Hill) Torpedo Revision Wave 9, Wave 4 Cps, Ooh Wave 3 and Batman Beyond (W4/5?) DCU BAFs.

Grand Blanc Walmart (Dort and Saginaw) Ditto…GI Joes. Saw TF Animated Swoop

Grand Blanc K-Mart. (Holly and Saginaw) Oddities really…4 Cobra Giftsets (Destro, CC, Baroness, SS and Cobra Trooper)

Today
Flint K-Mart (Dort Hwy and Atherton) Cobra Legions Gift Set, Firebat (SCORE!) 25th IG Destro, Cowl CC

Burton Meijer (Center Rd and Atherton) Complete set of IJ TOD Wave (Short Round!!!), Wave 3 DCUs (Just need Deathstroke and Nightwing), Wave 9 Torpedo Revision Case. Oh and thanks to Papa Johns and Meijers I scored IJ KOTCS for a low low price of 9.99 with coupon. That’s cheaper than going to the theater and getting popcorn and pop for my show.

I have yet to see the Broomhead Wave yet. They'll probably start showing up next week or sneak in during Veterans Day week.

Hey, what's up?! Just got back from a toy run and here's the rundown:

Battle Creek-
Target-Nothing new
Walmart-Nothing new
Columbia Ave. Meijers-Guess what...Nothing new
Kmart-New fang/claw, a.w.e striker, and firebat (didn't buy because of slight packaging damage. Enjoy loose collectors!)

Kalamazoo-
Shaver Rd. Walmart-New W5R5 case (picked up the Flint, SS, and Firefly. Left the rest.)
Westnedge Target-Nothing New
Westnedge TRU-The single worst selection of GI Joe product I've seen recently. I mean, for God's sake, Kmart gets newer stuff on a more regular basis than TRU!
Westnedge Kmart-Broke as a frickin' joke
Stadium Kmart-Nothing new someone finally bought the packge damaged sharc and firebat)
W Main Target-Nothing new, but I finally scored some Booberry and Frankenberry cereal! Hells Yeah!!!
W Main Meijers-Yeah right!
W Main Walamrt-Nothing new (they have waytoo many wave 9 pegwarmers and wave 1 dvd battle packs!)

And just as I sat down to type this up, I received my set of six wave 10 figures in the mail (including a variant Wraith) from smalljoes.com. They are awesome!!! I can't wait for them to start hitting mass retail (hopefully soon). If anyone wants pics just give me a holla and I'll try to get some posted!

Pick up another Fang and Claw at the Walmart in Belleville. I left the A.W.E. striker and Firebat.

By the way, if anyone is looking for anything just let me know. I go hunting just about every day and I'm more than willing to trade stuff or to just pick stuff up for people (within reason) and get reimbursed later!
