I got good and burned by the Woodburn WM. I was told a couple of weeks back that they had movie Joes out there so I hauled ass from McMinnville all the way over there. Damn I was pissed when I saw ROC crap. That store is a black hole. Monday is comin guys. Yo Joe!!

Mainly came over to Bend to see my folks but we had debated getting tickets to the Shins. Kind of glad I didn't the weather was awful yesterday.. cold and rainy.... not the best conditions for an outdoor venue. And the D were playing when we left the movie Theater after seeing Advengers (Awesome flick) I saw the D a few years ago and they put on a fun show.
Looks like I won't be able to hunt new Joes till Tuesday :( if anyone can pick me up a spare Red Ninja, Cobra Trooper and Joe Trooper I would appreciate it. Not worried about finding some of the multipack items or main characters but the single troop builders might be a little tougher. Hope everyone has a great GI Joe Monday and Happy Hunting. |

This just sucks I'm really not that excited by the Movie line. Mostly because of inaccurate the figures are. There were few I wanted to buy from wave 2 but maybe we're only going to see wave 1 for the next 9 months. Provided Hasbro doesn't call them all back or the stores don't saleout during the remaining spring time we have left.
I could go a complete year without buying a single Joe. |

I just got a PM from DaveViper that the DG Duke I have asked for is going to be shipping to me on Tuesday. The price tag for the fig + shipping is $11. Not to bad seeing as the Ret Joes are going to be a $10 dollar bill. So if anyone is interested in these figures, let them know. I have asked for the full set of them. Afterwards I might ask for more Dukes....not sure yet. I'd really like to get my OG 13 modernized.
Edit: I ran over to "The Ruins of Salem" today & checked out the box stores. FM on Lancaster was a bust. TRU had wave 1 Duke, wave 1 SS & a few wave 1 SE w/ the weird blue bat wing gizmo. But you could tell that the pegs had been picked over pretty well by others. The new waves were scattered off the hooks like someone had gone through the assortment to get what they wanted & let the dregs. I would have loved to have found the CC or Zartan but what are ya gonna do? Plus they had 1 Ret Hiss Tank (I took it though), a single Ghost Hawk 2 & a few of the Fang Boats. Also lots of POC figs. Target had 4 Ren. CC's. I'll try to take pics of the Hiss Tank tomorrow & give my critiques. Plus, I need to open up that other Ninja set that I told y'all about.

TRU got a sale on Joe figs. I think there was 7 Renegade CC & one Duke. |

Dude, I was in that Bend Walmart just last month. Is it always that bare or was it because of the store construction going on?
