I saw a post saying Roadblock & Tripwire Tiger Force 2-pack is now on sale at Target for $38.49 (USD). Since we don't have Target in Canada anymore I took a look on TRU... just in case.

I remember last time I checked price on TRU Classified figs, and they were $1 to $3 higher than Amazon. But now, the average GI Joe Classified fig is... $42.99!!!!

Really?

That is $7 more than Amazon...

Yep TRU after the new year went back to their wacky pricing.  Did you happen to see Buzzer's price?  I'm sure it is an error, but $60 is not a realistic price for a single figure.

So far I don't think TF Roadblock and Tripwire have shown up at any major Canadian retailer for preorder.   Maybe TRU will get it, or possibly Gamestop since they go the Tiger Paw.   However there are online etailers that have the two pack up for preorder so if you can't access Target there are some options available in Canada.

ninjas wouldn't stand a chance against a Tier 1 SOF unit, a 5.56mm NATO round at 500 fps muzzle velocity isn't something anyone can dodge or deflect with a katana and some twat twirling nunchuks or flailing katanas is just going to get their head blown off.

and that picture of these ninjas just looks stupid with them having gun-arms with an actual unusable grip and trigger assembly.

This one might remember you Action Force SAS Trooper

😜

did anyone actually pick these up?

I did and the quality is awesome.

If you compare with Classified: no need to boild to unfreeze joints, no curved weapons, no warped card, etc.

They feel 1986 ARAH with swivel wrist.

The code Delta10off makes you save 10% when buying 6 figs or more.

The all come on a nice card and a stand.

I remember him when I was new on here. Seemed a nice guy, like a lot of you.

My condolences.

Oh, this is sad news indeed. I met him, talked to him, bought from him.

My condolences to his family.

Wow that is terrible news.  I do remember him somewhat from those earlier days.  His pic jogged my memory a bit, but I wouldn't say I knew him.

My condolences to his family and especially his son. 

As someone who just turned 50 in January I can definitely agree that 51 is way too young.

Sadly this is becoming a grim reality for us as we keep aging.

WOW, that is a bit of a shock.  He was well known to anyone in the early days of JoeCanuck. My condolenses to his wife and family.

Just WOW!

I was informed this morning of Dave's passing in early 2024.

For those that don't remember, he was one of the guys part of CanJoeCon staff years ago.  Most that went to the JoeCanuck conventions would have ran into him. 

My last interactions with Dave was going to his house to pickup the 3 3/4 GI JOE figures from the GI Joe Collectors Club.  He basement was full of Joe stuff.  He use to blame me for bringing him over from the 12" collecting world to the 3 3/4 world.  lol.  Nothing but good memories.

I am still processing this.  I got to know his wife and kid over the years. So the news hit me hard when Jon S texted me about it.  51 years old is far too young to go.     

agreed, ak.
