so who still has joes at walmart
- Thread starter xhairs
- Start date
well my walmart finally stopped selling Joes. What a shame. On the bright side I never have to go back to that God awful store again and look at all those inbred, meth addicted, tax leeching, alcoholic, semi-retarded, lazy, puke fucks ever again. Now I have a legit excuse to order from online retailers and not leave the house. Now all I need is a basement to dwell in while my mother yells down the stairs at me and my life will be complete.
Out of 4 local walmarts, only 1 still has some instock. Shadow tracker, Skydive, Lowlight and Destro wave.
Update: as of yesterday, my Wally has 6 pegs for Joes, with only one ice cube Destro hanging. Wierd, it's like they can't react when Joes actually sell... Plenty of SW, Iron Man, Thor, etc. hanging around... 
walmart is all like "OH! They're actually selling?! I guess we'll have to take them off the shelves forever! that way parents and children will be left with NO variety!"
seriously, the gi joe toys at my walmart were selling well when they'd put the effort to RESTOCK them.

more like, "wow, their selling again!...when the movie toys come out lets order a$$ loads of the exact same case so that we'll never have more than 4 different figures!"
There, I corrected it for you Eddie

You like that phrase don't you? "ass loads"
Couple of guys on Bantha Skull are reporting ROC figures (lots, multiple cases) are making their way to the pegs at Walmart.
That's not a typo. ROC. Rise of Cobra.

That's....that's what they said.
I have yet to see this, but I believe these guys.
One guy found the same thing at a TRU. He was pissed because it meant he wouldn't be seeing any POC for a long time there. As it is, he's never see the Dusty wave.

I don't have one around here so I don't get the 'honor' to deal with them too often. I'd like to grab another TRU-sclusive Spirit for fodder, but probably won't see him again.
I figured they had stopped shipping, but I knew they were sitting on the pegs at my 'local' store (local means an hour away, in another state).
I'll put up a WTB thread and see what I get.

funy you should say that i went to tru and no poc but a shit load of roc and there was 1 lonely KAMAKURA who will go up on ebay as i need cash lol.
I did the same thing X.
<ducks thrown items>
I found him at TJ Maxx for $4.99. The card was good, not perfect. I think he went for $20 or so on eBay.
The figure isn't anything to write home about. He's popular only because of his scarcity.

nice my card is mint no bends dents or anything. so i hope i get more then 20 lol ya the fig sucks.
i used to be till roc came out and then i was like forget this i wont waste my cash to complete a wave and now i just buy what i want or if it is htf lol.
WHOA WHOA whoa! back the fuck up! you mean to tell me all the major retailers are going to give POC the middle finger and go back to ROC? have these dumb-asses ever heard of Big Lots?! or TJ MAXX?! I mean, ROC wasn't complete shit, it had a few brilliant figures, but I'm not looking to army build Doc Rex, Destro, Bareness, and Storm Shadow. (although I would get a Paris Pursuit Baroness for those guns, ever since I bought a couple POC beach heads I've come to respect those SMGs. It's always nice to be able to give guys with poor pose-ability, or guys who came with no weapon such as Airtight something to defend themselves with.)
Saw him. Couldn't justify the cost to buy him... If only I had known (again).
