Everyone has a right to be pissed about the 3 pegs we get for our Joes. Because all the other spaces are takin' up by Spider Man, Batman, and the Hulk.... which DON'T SELL ANYWAY!!!! We get a small nook in a corner for the stuff that sells... and the shit that don't sell HORDES ALL THE SHELVING SPACES!!! And it's really sad when Wal-Mart re-arranges the aisles and then you have to scrounge and bitch because they moved the little nook where your Joes were and when you find them... THEY AIN'T RESTOCKED!!! IT'S THE SAME ONES FROM 3 WEEKS AGO!!!! THE SAME DAMN BUZZER!!!!

-Going in thinking you are going to get something great, walk out with nothing and feel like crying inside :-)

It's bad when you've bookmarked about 15 different website's searches for GI Joe (mind you half of my bookmarks are GI Joe searches on different retail sites) I even have sears and Walmart bookmarked for God Sakes. MY name is David and I have a GI Joe addiction.

You find other collectors in stores and you go out to the parking lot before them to see what vehicles they drive. Then you follow them to the next store and slash their tires while they're in shopping for Joes.
That's a lot of fun! j/k - some of the commentaries were sounding a bit paranoid so I thought I'd make a funny... or was it reality?!?!?!?

Lookin' at my collection.
It's a lot of figures for less than two years of a toy line. Very bad for me. |

When shopping for groceries and household stuff you just have to look at the toy section and then when you realize you just found a complete set of the newest and harder to find waves you drop everything else and start getting paranoid that every customer walking towards you is really another Joe collector in disguise trying to see what you have and take it away from you so you make a beeline for the registers

My Walmart is supposed to be a Super Walmart. But they've never had as much in the toys as the other Super Walmart has. I see DC Universe, seen Star Trek figures etc at that one. Course now latley i've not seen as much stuff there.

- You start to have insta-rage when you see one or two repacks from a new wave on the pegs
- You speed in and out of traffic (Even in a monsoon) to get to the next open store because of said repacks you found at the first store (That's how I got wave 9 ) - You spend more money on your toys instead of little insignificant items like food

Anyone else get these?I listed some,anyone have other symptoms to add to the list?
-When I'm at a store and I see some guy in their 20's - 30's making a beeline to the toy dept. I try to outrun them -When I'm at a Super Walmart I wish I had those skate shoes that kids wear so I can glide my way to the toy dept. instead of taking the 3 mile hike -From clenching my fist so many times from the stress of not finding Joes I'm starting to develop a Kung Fu Grip more fierce than Chuck Norris' |
