Arizona G.I. Joe Sightings

CobraStriker · 08-19-2010, 11:38 PM

Walmart got some in today on the North-side. I was starting to wonder as well though. Finally got a MOC SJ. They had just put out two boxes, and I saw the employee with the Hasbro boxes and yet, no CC on the shelf. Makes you wonder. Either employees got their hands on them or they there wasn't a cc in either box.

People must be getting desperate seeing as how HTS is out of stock on all POC figs.

Wow, they were just out there like day before yesterday?? I'm starting to wonder if they are drying up right now and then possibly coming out heavier closer to the holidays.
...boy that ROC must have really screwed up things. lol

The Targets seem to be running out quickly but the couple of Wal-Marts I go to had ample stock.

just got back from a yard sale I found on Craigslist. Got a Terrordrome, Skystriker, and a couple of big boxes full of more vehciles I haven't gone through yet. All for $20!!!!!

You suck!

So it seems that Wave 2 is hitting stores in California. What I don't get is, why are people already starting to bash the Jungle Viper. Sure, he's not as cool as AV but, it's still a cool looking Viper I think. Some are saying that JV is 2 per case so it will be more available than the AV. I guess that's good if I really want to add him to the collection. Its not like I am building an army, but I think it's a great figure to add. Thoughts?

the lady was just REALLY cool about it. i emailed to ask if she still had it because and I guess it didn't sell at her yard sale last week. so she said to come by this week and I could have it for $20!!! I was only asking about the Terrordrome but she threw everything else in for the same price. She said this week that she'd gotten several emails about it but that she told them she was holding it for me. First come first serve. Awesome lady

btw...DANG this TD has a lot of parts. I've never seen one in person so I am having a hard time piecing this thing together.

Me personally i am going to get a couple to leave as is, and a bunch more to strip the extra stuff off of and turn into Night Vipers.

If you lack a ring, one is provided for you in another room, in a treasure chest filled with poisonous vipers.
