My score from the Con. The red ninja was bought at a Wal-Mart on the way to the con. I got the 2 pack, but they'll have to mail it too me since the 2nd run they had made didn't make it to Orleans. They had loose Footloose figs, but they were sold out by 8pm on Thursday! They carded ones sold out Friday I believe. The rest of the stuff followed Fri and Sat.

My area TRUs have been restocking nothing but 30th Anni Wave 3 for like, four months.
I'm tired of seeing those figures...

After all of the recent JoeCon reveals I got all misty-eyed and decided to buy the Ghost Hawk II VTOL, mostly to see if avoiding it in the first place was a bad idea. Folks, I'm sure this isn't news but this thing is total and complete rickety piece of crap!! The wing and motor assembly flew off no less than 3 times just in trying to get the missiles on and one of the tabs that are supposed to hold the missiles broke off during one of these episodes.
I am literally shocked... no pissed off... that this is what passes for toys these days. A company with a profile like Hasbro should care more about not only bottom lining costs to the utter extreme, but also in selling a solid product to young children. Cuz if kids turn away from GI Joe it's not for lack of a great characters and investment in that world, it's because Hasbro screwed the pooch in putting out shoddy shit toys!! I'm looking at you Hasbro marketing, and Hasbro who the frick ever. Stop putting out junk and get with the program, because if this is the best you can do then no wonder kids don't give a crap about GI Joe anymore. I don't frickin blame them. |

That's basically why I didn't purchase the Ghosthawk. First off all, it looks so damn ugly. The huge engines on the wings and orange missiles were such a turn off. Let me not even mention the horrible Duke pilot that comes with it. I understand the tail section is hollowed out as well right? That really sucks and just feels cheap . You definitely wasted your money on that vehicle. To be honest, the only thing I like about the retaliation line is the Joe Trooper and that Joe tank that's in the movie that wasn't released at retail.

Yea it's funny because it seems like ToysRUS is starting to get the 30th anniversary wave 4 in again. I just got two zombie vipers today at my ToysRUs in Times Square Manhattan. That was the first time I have ever seen them at retail. They were 9.99 each. They also had Lifeline, Sci-Fi, and Law and Order, but only one of each and two Marvel's Avengers 3.75 inch Hawkeye figures out of like 15 pegs. I passed on him. He did look exactly like jeremy Renner though, which i thought was pretty cool for a figure of that scale. It really does pay off to go early in the morning.
