What about 25th DVD packs?
Title: Re: GI JOE @ Silver Snail - figs, comics, etc
Post by: burg on July 29, 2010, 12:39:07 PM
If you're looking for the Alpine one, sadly long gone. Those were so badly distributed by Hasbro it isn't funny.

We've got at least the first 2, which I think I can mark down for cheap for the show.

Post by: burg on July 30, 2010, 10:48:30 AM
Also ARAH Loose: Eels, Serpentor, Lightfoot...I'm gonna go through stuff this weekend I know we've got lots more :)

Are you guys charging taxes on top of pricing?
Title: Re: GI JOE @ Silver Snail - figs, comics, etc
Post by: burg on August 16, 2010, 11:40:12 AM
At the show taxes were included :)

In store we now have Pursuit of Cobra, Resolute 7-packs and lots more toys & comics. Drop by and say hi!

Snail has both Slaughters for 25 bucks, still a bunch there, get em if you dont have em!

Post by: Kronser on September 08, 2010, 05:32:14 PM
damn, I was in TO on Monday but didn't figure they'd be open so I never tried (not sure if they were)

If anyone can go down and pick me up a set I'd be happy to compensate generously! Please if you can, PM me. I'm in London so I don't think I'll be able to get over there before they'd be long gone.

Same for me. I need the tripple T version and have no problem spend $25.00 on it.

What a great idea! I didn't know that they would do that.

Post by: NeoDragonKnight on September 09, 2010, 08:55:18 AM
I wont be making a trip back till next Wednesday, if they are still there Ill try and pick up a few.  But if SnowHawk was able to call them and have them ship them you might want to do that option before they sell out.

Good price.  When I went on Sunday they were $30 each.

Post by: SnowHawk on September 11, 2010, 08:27:49 AM
I received my Slaugters last night in the mail.  $8.60 for S&H, plus a free Fringe comic and Resident Evil poster.  Very happy, great transaction.

Hey guys sorry haven't been on these boards for a few weeks so I missed these messages. We do have POC Wave 2 Fully stocked right now (figs & vehicles) as well as USA Wrestling Sgt. Slaughter, Resolute 7-packs and tons of other Joe figures and comic books.

We can gladly do mail order as well as do 1-day holds on instock items (it's not fair to other collectors to hold stuff more than 1 day though).

Cheers!

Can confirmthere are now no more Jungle Vipers, Alley Vipers.  Lots of everything else includind CC.
Title: Re: GI JOE @ Silver Snail - figs, comics, etc
Post by: canprime on February 12, 2011, 10:37:00 AM
They have done a major restock.  The moved the Joe section closer to the front.  They have tons of wave 2-4 except for wave 4 Destro and Low light (none of either).  However lots of Alley Vipers, Jungle Vipers, Shock Troopers and wave 3 SE.  Also some more HISS tanks, but they were just putting them out so I can't confirm they are the black version.  However I would think it is likely.

Hmm I was there on thursday and they had zero wave 4. The lowlights must have gone in and out the door within 24 hrs.
Title: Re: GI JOE @ Silver Snail - figs, comics, etc
Post by: pdaat on February 13, 2011, 08:40:55 AM
Lots of Wave 4 still at Heroes in London.  Anyone need me to hook them up?
Title: Re: GI JOE @ Silver Snail - figs, comics, etc
Post by: canprime on March 26, 2011, 10:13:28 AM
More wave 4 this morning if you are looking and are downtown.  $11.99 bit they are definitely getting low on Lowlight and Destro.

Did you notice if they were on canadian or US cards? Just curious. If they were on canadian cards, it could mean they will be hitting regular retail soon.

I spotted Low-Light and a re-stock of just about everyone at Wal-Mart Dufferin Mall yesterday.

The Alley Viper I picked up was on US card.

Post by: turner on March 31, 2011, 08:48:39 PM
I have yet to see a single shock viper or any of the lowlight wave down here.

I saw a handful of Shock Vipers at Wal-Mart Dufferin Mall last Wednesday. They're not impossible to get.

The Cobra Troopers coming up may be a different story. :)

Picked up the Crazy Legs wave yesterday at Silver Snail, a bit pricey though at about 12 bucks each.  Plenty of each figure, but I strongly suggest Crazy Legs b/c that figure is just one of the best in POC
