I've seen two Dukes, two Snake Eyes, one wave 1 Roadblock and two Cobra Island Roadblocks in Southwest Michigan. I'm pretty sure this area is heavily "scalped".

We have a ton of collectors on the boarder hear. The fact that you saw anything is a miracle. Ive had to travel out some 50 miles to find figures due to the competition.

Probably not likely, but does anyone have a Classified Beach Head they’d want to trade for a Classified Snake Eyes, Duke, Scarlett or Roadblock? Also have an open Destro to trade. I’m in metro Detroit area.

I'm a Michiana guy, and I've yet to see a single G.I. Joe of any kind in stores 2020. I've gotten lucky and gotten most that I wanted online without paying scalper prices, (still trying to get a retro baroness though) but in an actual brick and mortar store, I've seen nothing.

I found a case of wave 2 vintage on a pallet at the Grandville walmart. Case breakdown was 3 destroys 2 roadblocks and 1 scarlet for anyone wondering. Have yet to stumble across wave 1.

I'm in the Thumb, and the Walmarts in my area have had just a small amount of Classified and only one Retro Roadblock. Haven't seen anything yet at the Walgreens or Meijers I frequent.

I have to say that I am looking forward to seeing how Hasbro's bold strategy of having only the metal diecast nano figures pays off this holiday season.

Ha, right? Figures...the Jada diecast are awesome, but the overstocked nano cake toppers are untouched, smh.

Supposedly, people in SC and NY have just spotted Retro w2...

I saw one box of w2 come through my Walmart in Commerce Twp about 5-6 weeks ago, Scarlett already gone.
