Good question Mainframe. I can wait for retail on just about any MU. I don't even like paying 9.99 retail for them let alone what convention prices may be. I'm mainly going to the con for Art anyway.

Can we get sued for even talking about Star Wars? I don't know if we got expressed written consent.

I've been seeing the FF Doom & Spidey a lot at the Swansea TRU. Their Joe selection sucks though.

Believe it or not, I have G.I.Joe sightings to report in the G.I.Joe sightings forum.

Looks like Walgreens is the place to be, I stopped by one last night to pick up a drink and found a POC Jungle BAT and a POC Steel Brigade. I became curious and decided to take a detour and hit 2 more Walgreens and a CVS on my way home, and was very impressed with some interesting items that I found:

Walgreens A:
POC Jungle Bat X1
POC Steel Brigade X1

Walgreens B:
POC General Hawk X1
POC Steel Brigade X1
TF Prime RID Vehicon (not 1st edition) X1
TF Prime RID Airachnid X1

Walgreens C:
POC General Hawk X1
TF Prime RID Vehicon (not 1st edition) X1

CVS:
POC General Hawk X2
POC Blowtorch X2

(CVS joes were $12.29 each)

That's a total of 4 Hawks! I bought the lone Jungle BAT and both Vehicons. I'm now looking for more Jungle BATs, anyone find any that they want to sell/trade? I stashed a couple of those Hawks just in case anyone finds any Jungle BATs and wants to trade. Store locations will remain securely anonymous for anti-lurker purposes.

The interesting part is that the date stamp on these POC figures is 10801, which means these were from the original batch made in early 2011 and have been sitting collecting dust in a warehouse somewhere while we all searched high and low for them and barely found a handful (some of us even shelling out big bucks for them on ebay). That totally explains why there was such a shortage of POC wave 5 early last year when they were "released" (mostly at Walmart).

Also found it funny that these Joes were $9.99 each, $2 cheaper than last year's Walgreens $11.99 price for their 30th figures. This makes them the cheapest joes currently available at mainline retail! Who would have ever thought Walgreens Joes would ever be cheaper than TRU joes?

Good work.

Anyone looking to bolster their BAT army can look to china as well. China Seller sinodolls has 20 Jungle bats w/o accessories for $12 each shipped.

He has some interesting figure lots for sale. Lots of 25th female groups, if anyone were interested in customizing.

This one has a Quarrel prototype I think

Not bad! Typically I wouldn't care too much about the lack of accessories, as BATs are perfectly convenient for heavy duty labor/hand-to-hand combat/vehicle driving, but it is a shame that the BATs don't come with their belt, the indentation and lack of belt looks a little disappointing. If I had some scrap BATs around, I'd just use their yellow belts but all of my BATs are suited up and ready for duty. Good to know that china as these available though!

I took a chance on Sinodolls because he had some Super Hero Squad figures my son has on his X-Mas list. I can vouch that my stuff is quality and arrived quick for being sent from China. I've added him to my list along with WS_Toys, Viperkingdom, and Tunghori.

I agree with this post 100%. If anything does arrive damaged or missing they will replace it/ send out a new part asap. No worries.
