Miko Toy Warehouse ...Spy Troops stuff
« Reply #36 on: October 15, 2004, 10:33:49 PM »

I checkout both warehouses today as I had a job in Mississsauga (QEW and Hurontario) and came back via the QEW to Toronto.  The Toronto location is brutal for parking and a pain in the butt to get back onto the highway (east bound).  The rain didn't help.  I also checked the Richmond Hill location when heading back to the office. Both were slim for army builders.  No Iron Grenadiers as it seems most people are only after this pack (I can't blame them).  But you can ask somebody in the store if they have that figure or not in stock.  There are alot of vehicles left including the Road Rebel, Venom Cycle, Patriot Grizzly, Sky Sweeper, Hiss IV, NAC (both green and brown versions) and the Sand Razor.  I didn't see any other vehicles.  And if people are wondering. the Richmond Hill location only has two waves of Spy Troops, which are Wave 5 and 7.  The Toronto location has Wave 5, 6 and 7.

Spy Troops - Wave 5
Barrel Roll
Burnout
Chief Torpedo
Cobra C.L.A.W.S Commander
Crosshair
Iron Grenadier
Overkill
Recondo
Scalpel
Sgt. Hacker
Tunnel Rat

Spy Troops - Wave 6
Beach Head
Black Out
Dart
Depth Charge
Dr. Mindbender
Flint
Overkill
Ripper
Roadblock
Sand Viper
Shipwreck

Spy Troops - Wave 7
Big Brawler
Cobra B.A.T. v3.2
Cobra Coils
Destro
Grunt
Iron Grenadier
Kamakura
Lady Jaye
Night Creeper
Red Spot
Wide Scope

I am not kidding.  The pickings have gotten slim for army builders and honestly this isn't a surprise.  They won't restock unless some of the guys on the shelves have been moved.  They don't like empty spaces on the shelves and thus will restock when needed.  So the Scapel, Destro, Big Brawler etc packs are starting to collect dust.  I have grabbed most of the army builders I wanted from Richmond Hill.  Some will be used for trade bait like the Bats.  Plus I have gone there during the last 3 days to pick up items for Redmao and Custo.  Not my fault the place is 30 seconds away from work and I can take advantage of it.   This is why I don't mind picking up items for guys as I am right there.  If you do go there, ask a guy that works in there to bring out a fresh case of 2 packs.  I won't do that as I have gotten enough packs.  

Peter if you looking for something, LMK. I don't think it's worth the drive unless your after other toys (besides GI JOE) like Star Wars, Transformers, Barbies etc.  Everything is cheap in there.

You posted a list but it didn't state how many of the items you wanted.   I mentioned this earlier in the thread that I can't take back items as there are no refunds.  If I buy too many, I get screwed.   Custo and Redmao PM with their want lists.  That gave me a better idea whether they were serious or not and how many items they wanted.  This is the way I decided to go from here.

Just got back from Samko today. Not many IG packs left at all. I took home 3 Coils packs and 2 Bat 3.2 packs. It's a neat little store, though I wouldn't expect them to have this kind of G.I. Joe stock every year. It seems that TRU and Wal-Mart have gotten better at carrying Joes. At least marginally...
