I just hit up the Bashford Manor Target (in Louisville) and got some exclusive vehicles. Fair warning: Don't go there looking for any. Good luck to everyone because on the case packs, it states the number of cases currently shipped. Only 314. Hopefully that won't be all of them.
I don't know about these exlusives... It seems Hasbro's clown-shoes distribution of the 25th figures has made them ALL feel like "exclusives." If I happen to stumble across them I'll definitely pick them up but I'm not going to go to any extra effort to find them... I have enough stress in my life as it is. I collect Joes for fun and leisure, not to add to my list of balls-aches. |

scored my vehicles tonight in Louisville. The target on watterson and westport rd said they only had the Awe Striker and Sharc but i overheard the stockroom guy say that no way in hell was he Gonna let the hiss tanks loose yet. But the target in St. Mathews was real nice and the stockroom employee said that i could buy im all if i wanted to that it was first come first serve. So in closing i picked up 1 Awe Striker, 1 Sharc, and 3 HISS tanks total. Possibly 38 more complete cases at St Mathews Target.

Scored one each of the Target exclusives at the Dixie Highway location. Nothing on the shelves, but a DCPI search showed them in the stockroom. Two very helpful employees pulled one of each for me, but I have no idea how many more are in the back.
I haven't opened them up yet, but a vehicle + figure for $9.99 isn't a bad deal at all! Happy hunting! |

Just returned from a quick trip to Clarksville WalMart. They had, on a rolling cart and also a pallet, a total of 4x cases of Indiana Jones 12" action figures.
The cases were marked with the nasty red letters "May 1st street date blah blah do not sell blah blah." So naturally I reached for my trusty keys and sliced a case open. Evidently this first wave consists of "Talking Indy" featuring an ugly chest- speaker, "Whip Action Indy" with a less obnoxious switch on his back for activating his 40-lashes-Nazi-smackdown, "Cairo Swordsman" with... sword and snakes, I hate snakes and "12" Shia Lebeuf" which is just troubling. No 12" "Nazi Scum" in this assortment, though he is on the back of the package. The first Indy I pulled out, having only seen his hat, was the ugly giant-chest-speaker-Indy and unfortunatley that was when old- man rotten stocker pounced from out of nowhere and went all narc on me... After I played nice and told him the normal stock ladies usually let me take what I want he told me to go ahead and take it since I had it out. Of course moments later I looked at and hated this Indy and had to wait a while and sneak back to the case when old sketchy stock guy wasn't looking. I happily settled on Whip Indy and the Arab Swordsman and scrammed. By some miracle these did scan at the register without problems, in spite of the street date. Thank Crom, considering the B.S. I went through. Never had any of the Indy toys as a child so I've got quite a nerd-buzz right now... can't wait for the 3-3/4" figures... |
