She said she's gonna do a Joe display out in the floor area instead of the isle.
They're coming guys, just need to be patient! |

I picked up a loose Flint and loose Beachhead at a comic shop yesterday because I've never seen Flint anywhere else MOC or loose. I also found 2 Cobra Troopers from the 2005/2006 TRU exclusive waves hidden at a TRU yesterday. They are nice figures for an era that is basically forgotten now. |

Let me clarify,The Hasbro rep said there aren't any at the moment in any of her retail stores(comic shops don't get thiers through the same channels).I myself have seen Wave 3 multible times in this area,but I have only seen 1 case of Wave 2.

I just need a Zartan to complete my first 3 Waves. Gonna E-bay him. Even @ 15 bucks shipped, I'll save a bundle in gas.

I hear ya, I just need Flint, but I refuse to pay $40.00 for him! Wish I could find someone that would want 1 trooper and 2 officers for trade. Stopped by a Target tonight and all they had where 2 CCs. |

E-Bay now unnecessary. Found my d@mn Zartan*** this afternoon @ Target Springhurst, along with 3 more Cobra Troopers for my growing army. Left behind much of wave 2 & 3 but no Flints! Go get 'em and hit those Targets today! *** My cost for Zartan: 6.99 - First Zartan purchased and instantly broke. 60.00 - Approximate gas for looking for another Zartan for over 3 weeks. 6.99 - Second, non-broken Zartan. = should have pre-ordered em ALL months ago but damn I just love the hunt! :confused: |

Stopped by Outer Loop Target today at lunch. They had several pegs of wave 2, including 2x Flints!
I picked up 2 more Troopers for my army and left all the rest. |
