Am I the only one who HASN'T seen a Crimson HISS at a Walmart? I've only seen them at TRU.

Was able to snatch Sci-Fi at Outer Loop TRU last night, but that was all they had left besides the Renegades from earlier waves.

The Joe section of the TRUs around here are laughable. I have't bought a Joe figure at TRU since the exclusive Quick Kick and Spirits were showing up there. They never have anything except maybe a ROC Baronness at full price.

I just need to find a single Sci-fi and Lifeline and I'm done until the movie figs come out, but none of the stores around are making it easy. I've even lowered myself to stopping at Walgreens in hopes of finding these. Still nothing. What gives? How can TRU have 100 Green Lantern figures for $9 each but not carry a single Joe figure?!

I guess I haven't bought a Joe at a TRU store since early summer. And that was just another w3 SE. They kept getting those POC w3 revisions long after waves 4-6 were out. I got all of 30th w4 (except ZVs) at TRU.com.

Guess so. There were 2 sitting at the Clarksville WM this very morning.

Joes at tru surely you jest

[Darkfire]

Went to the New Cut Walmart earlier this past week and the Joe pegs were completely bare, so of course I asked the designated employee of the Toy Area if they had any in the back, and she said, and I quote; "Honey, you'll have to wait until they've been brought out and the stockers won't do that until 10.". It was 10, and I ended up leaving at 10:45, still no Joe's. Went back again the other night and they had 1 Steel Brigade Trooper... what the hell is going on over there?!?!?!

[Colder Soldier]

That's the main reason I hate WM. Go in there 8am one morning and nothing. Very next morning, peg-warmers galore. Because of their irratic stocking schedules, the good stuff is always gone before I get there.

Speaking of WM's customer service...

About a week and a half ago, I was in the Clarksville WM. There was a lady in the AF isle doing return restock. She asked if she could help me. I knew she most likely couldn't, but since she asked:

"When are you getting more of these in?" pointing to the empty Joe pegs which she then scans with her little device.

"Say's here we have 21 in stock."

'21'?, me thinks. That's an odd number but maybe something will come from this.

"Let me go to my stock supervisor and see if we can get these for you."

"Thanks."

She returns about one minute later. "I'm sorry. He says being it says we have 21 out here, but don't see any on the floor means they were stolen. Because they were a collectors. They were all stolen being it was so busy around Christmas. Because they were a collectors. We probably won't get anymore in."

True story.

our area is fail when it comes to Joes. my buddy was out yesterday and said everything was practically cleared out

[Hicks_Royel]

Well, at least there'll be plenty of the Wave 1 and possibly 2 movie figures in a few more months.

They almost have to be better than the first two waves of ROC figures. I'm looking forward to a wall of 4-inch Bruce Willis's

...and if they make a James Carville figure, so help me, I will buy every single one I see until I have a small army of little bald CNN commentators marching across my desk!
