Tumble Weeds are blowing by.
« on: February 13, 2005, 08:24:01 AM »
Here we are, the middle of February, and I have not seen a single joe pack on the shelves at either ToysRus or WalMart since before Christmas.
I only found part of Wave 4 on that day anyway, it was like the ToysRus I was in only had 1 case to put on the shelves.
I also can't find any of the new Transformers Alternators.

I know this isn't much of a sightings post, but I thought after a dry spell of nobody posting, it would be nice to see that I am not the only one, or maybe it is just me, and I am not looking in the right places.

I see both Joe product and TF product at WalMart and TRU every time I'm out.

Granted, it's nothing newer than Waves 2-4 (joes), but I see it nonetheless

Nothing in my area. My local TRU doesn't even have a Joe section anymore.  I hope this isn't the writing on the wall.

I think I've seen the pee yellow viper with whatever that vehicle he comes with in my Walmart and that is about it. I have seen Walmart restock with new Corp vehicles and figures which doesn't make me happy.

Alternators

I hope some new Alternators show up soon.  I already got what I wanted from VvV wave 5 & 6 from Realboss but some Joe vehicles would be nice.  I wouldn't mind a Night Adder.

Mike - how long would it take to get them? (i.e. how long is the order-receive cycle?)

Well,
let's do a 'role call' of sorts to find out who is still interested in complete sets.
:-)

If enough are interested, I'll get more cases of Wave 7 in.
As for future waves, Assuming all goes well from now on, I should have them about a week after the U.S. does.
:-)

I don't need a complete set. I just need one more Gung Ho / Viper set but I'm sure I'm not the only one.  :shifty:
