Yeah, I missed buying a buttload of Shock Troopers when they first came out in droves at Target. They looked so plentiful that I said, "Meh, they'll be on pegs everywhere." Little did I realize how quickly they'd disappear until Brave needed a few (still looking for two more for him).

I haven't seen Alley Vipers lately (since around the time all the STs disappeared). Low Light's wave came and went at TRU and Wally.

Nah, after wave 2 the distribution on the Joe line clusterfucked.


My wally is officially Joe-free. A single peg marked Beachhead, but no single figures, just lame-o vehicles.

Same at the two near me. I wish they would just clearance those vehicles too. It makes no since to me why You would just carry the vehicles.

They've moved them to the back wall with the board games/pool toys/other toys up on the top shelf.

I think they have them simply because they're not selling. Boring and overpriced.

I just don't see the line doing great in the future. Kids are not interested and there really is nothing to give them any interest unless they have a parent or someone they look up to that likes the toys. I'll be surprised if we even see the wave with the Techno Viper. If so it will be mostly online. I know I won't see anything near me. I'm staring at wave 2 still after they restocked it. I only care about the new Hawk anyway. Great general soldier to use without much needing to be done.

This is the sad truth of the matter. I wish Hasbro would support the line more in terms of marketing and media. Sadly, I know they will not do to the current state of the line... *Plays Taps*

Strangely though, the last two waves sold out at Wally and TRU right quick. Target is left with lamo leftovers from the previous waves mostly...

*waits patiently for the "I saw a kid buying/asking for Joes" crowd*

I agree with you 100% on this its just not popular with todays youth. Its like you said if they have a parent who is into it then there is a good chance they are too, but the majority of ppl into it are 20 and 30 somethings with disposable income, and things aren't looking to good anymore. Supposedly there is new stuff out there but I can't find it.

Well if they are going to make a movie aimed at us then Taintum needs to get killed within the opening credits and Scarlett and Baroness need to put their differences to the side and get it on.

Was that an actual movie? I know there was a Simpsons porn parody but I never heard of GI Joe one. I wouldn't mind seeing Lady J do some laps at the Y.

We need a thread for perverse symbols. I've learned some new ones from you.

Avatar even got the 3X treatment. Why can't GI Joe? That's weak. Imagine bomb strike? Mmmmmm, bomb strike...

What's that one? I've never seen them?

As for wal mart, my homie was at it earlier and he said the same Destro that has sat there for months is still hanging all by himself. That and a few alpha vehicles. Now I have no reason to go off the mountain.
