Oddly enough, I found a Cobra Commander at Goodwill yesterday for $1. I know, not actual retail, I just thought it was odd since I've never seen Sigma 6 at Goodwill.

Yeah, my Kmart is still stocked with an odd assortments of the Sigma Six figures and my local TRU has a bulk of this one Duke with a mini gun they can't seem to get rid of.

I have seen lots of Toy Lines from past years popping up all over this year. I also noticed there weren't a lot of after Christmas discounting going on last year, like years past.
IMHO I think retailors are stashing toys as opposed to losing money on discounting. I think they just roll them into the next years Christmas sales. It's just us adult collectors who shop all year long. |

I spotted some at the Roses the other day. They were action packs or something. Smaller figures in banged up older boxes. I figure it was old stock or lost items. The Roses isn't known for having brand new items.

No...the items mentioned were explicitly "Sigma Six" product.
In early 2007, the Sigma Six name was dropped from the merchandise in favor of just "GI Joe". Which means, at minimum, this product is 3 years old. Hasbro does not just have that kind of stock sitting around for that long, it would have ended up at a discount venue long before now. And more importantly, aside from the 2.5 figure sets (which may well have been a "lost case"), if stores were still getting cases of Sigma Six, they'd have more than just army builders there. That says to me it was a collector returning stuff he had laying around. |
