Title: ROC figs $2.98 @ Toys r us
Post by: garling23 on August 27, 2010, 01:20:45 AM
Took the fam to Vaughn Mills Mall today and while in Toys r us I noticed a nice stock of ROC figs.  Pegs said $9.99, i decided to scan one to see if they were back to reg price.  It came up as $2.98!  Also stopped on the way home at the hwy 7 and 404 toys r us and same thing there.  no notice of sale and $9.99 on the pegs but scanning at $2.98.  picked a few more Kamakura's, a Cobra Commander, Agent Helix, Charbroil, arctic Snake eyes, and few others...

TRU Pointe-Claire (West Montreal) had 4 Neo-Vipers and a Cover Girl. In the hope that PoC will come as soon as RoC is cleared out, I decided to take one for the team. I picked up the 4 Neo Vipers.

I picked up Nano Viper, Para Viper, Rex, Night Adder and Impact Armour Ripcord.  Great for customs or kids christmas presents.  Hopefully they get the POC stuff in soon.  I really want my Spirit and Quick Kick.

NO Doc or Shipwreck still come up as 9.99 but she said i could get Doc for 6.98???

There was only 1 doc in the whole store and the TRU here doesnt have ANY POC figures

Im in fredericton >NB half of the ROC figures didnt come here either.. my dad always said "Son, Its hard out here for a pimp"...i was 6 I never understood until now...lol

Too bad I didn't learn about this sooner. I would'nt have minded getting Charbroil or Kamakura at 3$ since I don't have them yet. But no point getting a ride to a toys R us by now, must all be empty.

I wish I was still young enough to pass Halloween, would be great getting Neo-vipers to boost my army too! Even that ugly viper is a better gift than candy! Kids have it cool these days!

My wife was at Walmart on the weekend and the toy aisle guy told her that they are clearing out all the ROC stuff at 50% off current prices.  So Night Ravens for $5, Mole Pod/Lava Pod's for $4.  This was for the Walmart in Orillia since they have quite a few Alpha vehicles left.

Another reason why you should still check it out still, I just went into a TRU (Vic Park and Lawrence) that sells alot of Joes and the clerk just found another box of RoC figures sitting it the back.  I got another Kamakura, Charbroil, Arctic SE.  I left the others from that wave for others. 

The one thing that amazed me about this TRU is that they had more Cover Girls then Neo-Vipers?!!!

To help bring PoC here faster, Mike should use the RoC Neo-Viper in some fashion in the 2011 Con Set Exclusive!  We could paint him blue and call him the Neo-SNAKE-Viper!   :lol:

I just came back from TRU at Markville Mall to see what else I can buy.... I was bored so I reorganized the RoC Joes.  I put all the same figures on each peg.  The top 3 pegs are Neo-Vipers about 30+ left so don't all rush to pick them up!   :lol:

My wife and I have bought a dozen ROC figures to help them clear out their stock.  She was in the other day and all they have is Paris Baroness left.  She asked when will they get the POC figures in.  The action figure aisle guy said "they don't have any plans on getting in any new G.I. Joe items until they see what the next movie is going to do"
 Has anyone else heard of this?  Has anybody heard of a POC release schedule for TRU especially Spirit and Quick Kick release dates?

All they have left is 2 rows of Neo-Vipers, 1 row of Cover Girls, and 1 row of Heavy Duty (impact version).

- Accelorator Suit Duke
- Reactive Ripcord
- Paris Baroness
- A few different Versions of Storm Shadow, but none from the last wave.
still $2.98

How many more do they want us to buy before we get PoC?  :'( :'( :'(
If you didn't buy them, they would go down to a buck.

Thanks for the update. I went to my local TRU and they had a huge bin full of them for $2.98 as soon as I walked in. They really want to get rid of that left over stock.

Picked up some Sand vipers, a couple of Karmakura, a couple of City Strike Snake Eyes, City Strike Duke and a Jungle Ripcord.

it was a good day for Joes.

Never saw him down here, and I was looking for him for gsmiley.

I became convinced they were sending out some kind of revision case without him.

Just got back from TRU Brossard (Montreal South Shore). They had a basket in the center of the aisle with dozens of RoC figs - a mix of waves 3, 4 and 5. Since today is my birthday, I figured I would indulge myself a little  ;D. Here is what I picked up:

2x Kamakura
2x Arctic Snake Eyes
3x Nano-Viper
2x Charbroil
3x Jungle Assault Ripcord
3x Para-Viper
3x Deser-Viper
3x Ice-Viper
2x Night Adder

Most of these will be for customs. There were still at least 40 figures left after I went through them: 3 styles of Storm Shadows, 3 styles of Snakes Eyes, Reactive Armor Ripcord, Accerator Suit Duke, City Strike Duke, Doctor Rex, PP Baroness, etc.

I also picked up a wave 2 Hunt for the Decepticons Hailstorm at 11.97$.

All in all, a very nice birthday so far  ;D

I also picked up a Dr Rex and another Nano-Viper last night as well as a PoC CC and Snow Job (at Walmart) this morning. The only thing that would have made the day better was if I had found a few poC Alley-Vipers. But, with the haul I had today, I can't complain at all.  ;D I'm a very happy camper!

My local TRU restocked. Is there no end to this RoC stuff? Saw 2 kamakuras on the pegs and picked up a jungle ripcord. Kinda cool looking figure, very non-movie like. Also picked up an ice viper out of curiosity and man he's clunky. They had various other figures from the kamakura wave.

Still have yet to see a city strike snake eyes in a store.

I check the TRU at Vic Park and Lawrence and they also were restocked but were cleaned out of all the good figs.  I bought another 3 Arctic Snake Eyes and 3 more Ripcords (imapct armour).  I hope that will be the last restocking as we need the PoC fig out.

Just be glad you guys can get him at all. TRU exclusives don't come to Quebec. We have the privilege of buying them off Ebay. I would gladly pay 10$ for Doc/Bench Press/Snow Serpent/etc if I had the chance to pick him up locally.

I picked up two nano-vipers and two night adders last night at a local TRU.   

Not sure what I'm going to do with them, but I couldn't leave the store empty handed after seeing the pegs restocked.   

PS - all I saw really were collection 1 waves 3 & 4 - minus any Kamakuras or the variants (ie. white Rex or unmasked SS).  Assuming they were cherry-picked by staff already.   :shifty:

My wife just picked up Desert Viper and Jungle Ripcord for her collection from TRU Upper Canada Mall (yes my wife does collect Joes).  There was only one of each.  She also got a Reactive Ripcord for my son.

But the pegs were fully stocked with Kamakuras, Night Adders, Rex, RA Ripcord, Acc Duke, Cover Girl, Ice Viper, Nano, Red Fang and the beloved Neo Vipers.

[Side bar: OPEN RANT TO TRU..... Please get rid of the ROC stuff soon.  I am buying all I can.  I just want my SPIRIT and QUICK KICK EXCLUSIVES..... ARGHHH!!!  >:(

It is a great buy for $3.00 but even better for $2.40.  My son is going to a birthday party today.  The kid wanted Lego.  But for the price of Lego, he is going to get 5 ROC Joes.  We even picked up a General Hawk combat hero for 60¢.  Cant go wrong for that price.

They re-stocked my local TRU again and I am going to try to buy as much as I can afford and put them in the Toy Drive box at Christmas time.

No restocking of Joes in my TRU ( Saskatchewan), all figures are cleared out--gone. Only item left are Stingray ( Water Moccasin) sets at $29.98 and there's probably about 8 sets there.

I did scout a Zellers as well and found the various Target sets ( Snake Armour etc ) for their regular price AND a single Sigma Six Long Range figure still on the pegs. Crazy.

Well, to my surprise, I found my local TRU went from empty pegs in the Joe section--------literally NOTHING on the pegs but Stingray sets, to a restock of ROC for $2.98 ea.
Yes, I partook of 5 of the figures, for kit-bashing and assorted other pleasantries.

What I found was:
Jungle Assault Ripcord
City Strike Duke
Masked COBRA Commander
Arctic Snake-eyes
Baroness
Charbroil
Red Fang Ninja
Ninja Commando Snake-eyes
and the Doctor.
... and again this was where there were NO Joes on the pegs at the visit just prior--certainly not some of these figures, so it looks like a shipment came in and was placed on the pegs.
So it looks like this is a chain-wide effort to clear out the stock on hand, and usually......they do that when they want to make space for incoming product.

We'll see though.

I bought seventeen yesterday. Nine year old me would have been so proud. My fiance, however, doesn't need to know. It was the first time I had seen City Strike Snake Eyes, Desert Viper, Arctic Storm Shadow, Jungle Assault Ripcord and City Strike Duke in the wild so I got multiples of each. For under $54 that is an absolute steal in my books. Think I'm just about done with RoC purchases now.

Went to Markville Mall TRU and all Figs were gone, even the Neo-Vipers!  The only thing they had left were the TRU exclusives that are still 9.99 each.  I hope that PoC is coming soon...

Went to the TRU at Vic Park and Lawrence and all they had was 3 Baroness left so I bought them  :cobra:.  The 3 TRUs in my area have not restocked in a long time.  I hope this means PoC will be coming soon!

I'm guessing TRU isn't going to stock PoC. I'm sure they would have by now.

Wave 3 is coming out now in the US, maybe TRU will start with that wave here?

Checked 2 differents TRUs this week. They don't have anything even resembling Joes and no space set aside. If they are planning on stocking PoC, it looks like it might be after the holidays, maybe with wave 4?

I fear this may be true.  Maybe they'll consider stocking for 2011.

I talked to a couple TRU clerks (two different TRUs) yesterday and they both told me that they are unsure if PoC is coming at all.

My local TRU's are done for ROC.  None left.  I was hoping to grab a bunch for stocking stuffers and buy a bunch for the toy drive.

Well, I asked a friend who works at TRU if he could check in the system and he couldn't find any sign of any new GI Joe stuff in the computer. So it looks pretty grim from the TRU side. Maybe in the new year...

My local TRU still has a few pegs worth of RoC stuff. Not goin anywhere it seems!

Still no PoC at TRU...WoW!

Looks like Zellers and Walmart are gonna get a lot of their business!

TRU at Victoria Park & Lawrence NO figures, and only Snake Eyes/Street Vipers and TRU Copperhead/Swamp Vipers for vehicles.   

Lots of TRON tho...why?

New TRU in London - about 6 ROC figs on the pegs.  That was it.

My local TRU Express still has CS Duke, Desert Rip, CS SE, Desert Viper, Ice Viper, Storm Shadow.

I bought $20 worth to put in the toy drive bin.  I hope it gets a couple kids excited about G.I. Joe

**
on a side note I bought a Cobra Commander for myself.  The first ROC CC I bought had the chest holes for the pipes that it was supposed to come with.  The one I bought last night has the holes plugged (the only reason I bought it was because it was a variant)

The only time I hit one of those "Express" stores they didn't have any Joes.

I miss going into a TRU and looking at $3 Figs...  :'(   I would be so happy as to see those Neo-Vipers warming the pegs...  :wink:

Found 6 pegs stuffed and overflowing with this stuff today at TRU bayview and hwy 7. I don't frequesnt that location, so i don't know if this is new stock or what. But man!! All early waves. I actually picked up 4 dukes for a friend for customizing. But just brutal. At this rate I don't know if TRU will want to carry joe ever again!

If one store restocked, they all probably did.

I hope so... If we can't get PoC from TRU, At least we have $3 RoC to make up for it!

I was at this TRU and Believe it or not they were still there!  I bought 5 more to add to my collection.  They most have have wave 1 Neos, SEs and SSs with a few other not so desirable figs. 

5h4rK, Need more Neo-Vipers?  You keep offering them to people for trades, you must have run out by now?   ::)
