I was in Zellers today and saw they had some Star Wars Order 66(Target exclusives).  I don't get why they don't try it with Joe stuff.  No Joe stuff at all.

Guelph Walmart came up empty with no pegs even devoted to it.

I've seen those a few times. What's the deal with the order 66 thing? I don't follow star wars toys anymore but I did notice the only set I've not seen is 6 of 6.

I know order 66 was the order given to take out the Jedi. Just don't know if there is anything special about the toys.

The Order 66 sets all include a trooper.  Also, there are some new sculpts of common characters or some characters where there may have not been a widely available figure before.

As for GIJoe Wave 7, I was disappointed to learn from the Toy manager at the London North Wal-Mart that the Hasbro rep told him due to lack of supply that the store would not likely see any more Joes until July due to supply issues.

I still need Duke, Spirit, Wild Bill and HISS Driver.  Can any one help?

Can't believe my luck, stopped off at Markville Mall's Wal*Mart here in Markham, Ontario after work today and there they were. Based on what was on the single peg it looked like a complete single box of wave 7 (2008 wave 3) so I took em all 'cept for the extra SE. So keep your eyes open fellow canucks!

Went to my local TRU(whitby)  during my break today and found wave 7. Man, was I shocked. I cleaned them out as they only got in one case I'm guessing. They had 2 vipers and one of everyone else except SE.

So we have a number of confirmed sightings now at both Toys'R'Us and Wal~Mart.  Has anyone found these at Zellers?

TRU Kitchener just restocked with 4 cases of wave 3 2008.  They're on the back side of one of the poles so their easy to miss.

They DO exist!

I actually found a HISS Driver at TRU this morning. I've been checking regularly, and this is the first one I've seen.

It would seem that TRU is getting a much better supply of the 25th than Walmart/Zellers are.

Was at my local TRU earlier this week and they had re stocked on wave 7's...the only difference?

Half were canadian cards and the other half were american cards (with a Buzzer too)
