I saw them at a Newbury near me, too. I already have them and got them much cheaper online. $69.99 for a set plus shipping (less than $80). I love Newbury, but certain things are definitely more expensive there (toys being one of those things).

Didn't think this deserved a full thread, but figured I'd mention here, saw that the West Boylston Walmart had absolutely 0 gi joe figs/vehicles and had 2 employees confirm they won't get anymore until Christmas.
Am I the only one that finds that a bit ridiculous considering every other store, and most especially competitors' stores still have at least a few shelf warmers in place? And that's counting the PoC line that is out there and thriving. I've just never encountered that from a large chain such as them.

I agree, but at least in the Worcester area, I can't think of a store I've checked that didn't have at least a single figure and/or a single vehicle except for this one. And to then say they won't have any for another 3+ months?
I certainly don't blame them but find it odd at the same time.

What's up guys? I don't post very often, especially on this thread because I don't have anything to report, but I have been pretty lucky finding things through some of your sightings. However, I'm still without an Alley Viper. I knew this would happen as it does with the highly sought after figures in every wave but this seems to be the longest I've searched without result. When does it seem the best time to find this figure or any of the lower supply/high demand ones? Now that wave 2 is out should I just give up? I live in New Bedford and my little cluster of TRU Wal-Mart and Target in Dartmouth always seem to get whiped out when I go. Anyone know when they re-stock? I work a lot too so my hunt is limited to weekends and after 4:00pm weekdays. Hopefully someone can give me some insight.
