Did you just get something cool? Post about it here.

I stumbled into a Frys marketplace and found a black wolf timber today. Strange because this store had only 3 figures for 4 months then this appears on rack with them and was only other figure.

I hit the motherload today got 3 CGs and 3 Air troopers at one Wal-Mart.

I was up late working and just came from my local Wal Mart- just got Rock, Torpedo and a CG as well as Armored CC and one of the jet pack COBRA troops-

I also got the HALO 3Master Chief

Yeah, I have become that guy - 3 in the morning beating all the ratfink EBay resellers to the toy department at Wal Mart

Went Joe hunting yesterday and it was more of the same: nothing. The last place I went was a Wal-Mart and when I got to the toy asile it was nothing but fifteen or so empty pegs where the single carded figures should have been. I looked at the comic pack pegs and there, lo and behold, was the ACE and Wild Wesal two pack! That made my day.

So, counting the two pack I now have fourteen different figures (twelve single carded figures). Not bad for having started my son's 25th collection two weeks ago.

I picked up three Air Troopers at one of my local Wal-Marts last weekend as well. I swear the 25th Cobra troops have something addictive in their plastic - I can't stop buying them.

HA!! I'm hearing you!! I am actually surprised that they are as abundant as they are- I seem to find one or two floating around on the pegs all the time

All Hail Crack Commander!!

Your closing in on 10,000 posts- that's amazing!!!

"I don't believe it, there she goes again, she's tidied up and I can't find anything!"

Just back from vacation, and the board's been reorganized. That's fine; I actually like it this way.

Anyway, this is more of a sightings post, but I was able to pick up all of Wave 6 and the Wave 3 comic packs by checking out Wal-Marts on the way:

- Several Air Troopers at Wal-Mart in Seminole, OK. (I broke my personal no-multiples pattern and bought two.)
- All of Wave 4 (and a bunch of it) plus Wave 2 comics in Holdenville, OK! They actually had more Joes than Corps figures.
- All of Wave 6 (several of each) and most of Wave 5 in Okmulgee, OK! Several Crimson Guards.

In fact, Wave 6 seems to have hit just about all the Wal-Marts along Hwy 75 from Henryetta up into Tulsa.

This sounds pathetic for a 33 year old man to say but...
My mother picked up a CG, Rock n roll, Armored CC, and Torpedo.

Its really not as sad as it seems, its kind of funny actually. Over Christmas vacation, my wife and I were joking over christmas dinner about how she gets a "high" over finding the 25th figs for me(then they were impossible to find and she really got into the hunt). Ever since then, my brother from Pittsburg, sister in Nashville, and mother(she only lives about 30 minutes from me) have been calling me and finding figures for me. My aunt and even my sister's best friend who I have never met have got involved. They have picked up extra troopers, officers, and an extra now 2 CGs. Its funny to get a call at work to find its my sister who is all excited about finding figures at Target only to be disappointed to find out that I already had those figures. They'll probably go ballistic when the vehicles start showing up in stores. I may never have to shop for Joes again-just sit back and wait for my family to bring them to me.
