TRU - Livonia: A decent cross section of Wave 2 POC, some varied ROC as you'll likely find anywhere. No W2 POC Vehicles. Overall I could have found something to buy here if I wanted to.

TRU - Novi: Very little in general. Almost nothing on the Pegs for GI Joe and vehicles. I think they may have 1-2 Wolfhound dealieos but nothing really interesting

TRU Express - Farmington Hills: I saw nothing - not one thing with a GI Joe logo on it.

TRU Southfield - Same situation as Novi. Nothing much left here.

If you're looking to pick up 2 or 3 or 500 early wave Iron Man figures you're covered though.

TJ Maxx Downtown Farmington - Decent selection here of the comic packs and some later era single figs from the 25th era and a light smattering of ROC. I picked up a CC/GH 2 Pack as I hadn't done so yet.

TJ Maxx Farmington Orchard Lake - Fairly similar to the above but also had all of HOH except Storm Shadow and Firefly, was hoping to pick up a SS but hey picked up an SE which I was looking for as well.

Marshalls Novi - Nothing really of note here, they had a smattering of single card ROC and 25th but nothing in enough numbers to note. some comic packs too

WalMart Livonia 7 Mile - GI Joe had a reasonable assortment of Wave 2 POC but nothing that I had to have.

So decent set of trips today and may try a few other places tomorrow but overall I think my most success will be on ebay.

As a note - WalMart Livonia on 7 Mile had some of the newer Iron Man II waves hanging out but no drones - did see a Silver Centurion for the first time in the wild. Have still never seen a single carded drone in the wild, glad I got mine thru ebay and am not still searching the street for those.
lol I was at TJ maxx in farmington, and i almost bought that CC/GH, but I decided for some other figures instead. We prolly just barely missed each other

Target om michigan ave in canton/belleville has night ravens marked down to 20, no firgures really and nothing at westland tru just bare pickings. Marshalls in livonia on middlebelt had more night ravens, firgures were about the same as everywhere else, I did find a cobra infantry tho target in farmington had nada, they have one peg in the 'gi joe' section what a joke

Yeah I mean I hit the Livonia Target today after a Depot run for a new Shovel and absolutely obliterated - nothing there. Seriously it is tough to sell product if you have no product and that's what we've been dealing with in Michigan all year.

I got lucky and found Wave 1 in entirety at Target on the day of release but haven't seen a single AV since that time. Wave 2 I found at the Target on 5 Mile and have never seen anything resembling a Wave 2 vehicle yet anywhere.

It really does feel like Michigan is the end of the line for receiving every wave lately. Overall though Hasbro distribution has been exceptionally odd for GI Joe and Iron Man. GI Joe feels like more of a limited run every time with even normal figures being chase collectibles and then the Iron Man line is a total disaster of oversaturation of the first waves. There's just no happy medium and so we're ending up with one line where the wanted figs are lasting 1 day and there's nothing else another where the wanted figs are lasting 1 day but there's a 100-200 day backlog of original wave on the shelf.

I don't know if anyone can say they're happy with how the stock has come in/gone out of this state this year.

Hopefully 11' is more fruitful but I suppose BBTS and ebay sellers have appreciated my business since the locals have been terrible.
