Cha-fucking-ching!

Found a full case of Dollar General Joes today! I found them at the N. Larch store in Lansing... I also checked the Saginaw and Cavanaugh Rd (across from Hawk Island) Dollar Generals but nothing at either.

I picked up 2 each of Shipwreck, Storm Shadow, Snake Eyes, Duke & Cobra Trooper. I left the 2 Black Cobra Commanders if anybody in the area wants those.

I'm keeping the Dukes & 1 each of the others. That leaves 1 Cobra Trooper, Shipwreck, Storm Shadow & Snake Eyes. I picked them up for trade. I'll be updating my B/S/T later, but wanted to give Lansing people the heads up if they want those Black CCs and to possibly keep looking around local DGs. Good luck everybody!

GODDAMMIT 245!!!!!!!!!!! I was just there a couple days ago..and the fucking people didnt even seem to know what I was talking about. All im looking for is Dukes right now...so seeing as you are looking for some TF work we may be able to work out a deal if you come across more ;) I have had no luck with any of the DG's especially saginaw one on the west side.

Hit up target in allen park this morning. They got dukes and roadblocks,snake eyes and stormie and so e zartans. Plus all vehicles. I almost git the hiss but a clear canopy just cant justify the gumming down they did to that vehicle.......but my score that wasnt ret figures, were the fact they had renegades cobra trooper and ripcord each for $3.28 makes me wonder what other targets might have.

My theory is people are acting like crackheads and will cave to any price. Outside of the 3 packs, all of the retaliation figs I've bought were at meijers. I've looked for specifics at other stores but I've easily talked myself out of whatever they have. If people stop buying this stuff on eBay at 300% markup, the scalpers will eventually start giving up.

I keep forgetting to check for discounted figs at target. The only leftovers at my targets seem to he renegades dukes & cc, but i would grab a $3.28 renegades trooper in a second

I still have a shipwreck for trade.. and decided not to keep the 2 Dukes I found, so if you or anybody else wants them, check my BST. Not really wanting to ebay these for crazy prices, just trying to fill in some holes through trades.

I'm holding out hope these become as plentiful as the Combat Heros that were hold the "cheap Joes" pegs at DG stores before these figures... I figure DG and other dollar stors want to keep some Joe product on the peg, and only seem to have one option. Until recently that was the Combat Heroes singles; now I see those in the clearance bins at DB. I'm hoping that from now on, that Joe slot will be these figures.

Hey guys, just got back from a 12 store Brighton/Howell run, here's what I found.

Brighton:

Walgreens- POC commando snake eyes & desert storm shadow
Meijer- tons of Renagades dukes, fireflys, cobra commanders, and SE, even had 2 30th iron grenadiers.
Target- 3 cases of retaliation but well picked over, no Joe troops, I just grabbed the one red ninja they had.
Marshalls- nothin
Tuesday Morning- just avatar and air bender stuff, although they did have a transformers warpath for just $6.97.
Kohls- had an expanded universe space trooper, never saw one in the wild before.

Howell:

Big Lots has Mars 3 packs! I grabbed 2 left 14 behind, only $7 bones each!
Dollar general- nothing
Walgreens- scored a shocktrooper, left a steel brigade behind.
Tj maxx- just had a vintage mace for $3
Wal mart- just some well picked over retaliation, no troop builders left and they had a ton of deluxe Thor figures for $5. I left it all.
Meijer- just renegades CC and SE.

All that and all I ended up with is a Red Ninja, Shocktrooper, and two mars 3 packs, but it was totally worth it
