My Walmarts have Joes on one peg row, but tiered on three pegs on that row. Vehicles are stacked underneath on the shelf, and beneath again on the lower shelf.
They are, in fact, on the planogram for the stores in my area.

I found myself in Richmond Hill at the Highway 7 and High Tech Road Wal Mart and lo and behold I found my first wave 3 figures. It looks like they had about three cases but someone (of course) beat me to the Shock Troopers.

Just out of curiosity how many pegs were there? Someone said earlier that their Walmat removed their GI Joe pegs. It was replied by someone who said that Walmart was not dropping GI Joe. I only ask because I just noticed the Walmart by me JUST remove their Joe pegs. I always thought they sold well.

There were three pegs. But the entire section was so sparse. Normally when I go to Wal mart it's the exact opposite: tons of other crap (mostly Star Wars) and two lonely Joe pegs with wave one remnants.

Looks like the Walmart at Morningside and 401 is dropping GI Joe from there Toy section reset.  I was there at lunch and they removed the tags for the figs.  All they had remaning was one Brown HISS and one Cobra mech instock.  I will deble check late on to make sure it is for sure.

I check this store again and they do have 3 pegs for Joes!  they had the wave 3 figs, all that was left was 2 SS and the Duke.

The reason some stores don't have it set yet is because it is after christmas so they are resetting and stock is low (which is the norm for after the holidays). Late feb/early march you will see it pick up.

For TRU it's inventory time. But I wouldn't be surprised if other stores do inventory this time of year. Low stock means less counting. So they don't bring as much in til they're done. Inventory or no, the reset is normally like this in january, so new stock should flow in again soon. Hopefully!

I think someone mentioned finding a VAMP at a walmart. Is this the case with anyone else? I've only seen wave 1 of the larger vehicles at my local walmarts. I have yet to see a VAMP. I'd like one, so have been on the look out.

General Hawk: Technically, G.I. Joe does not exist, but if it did, it\'d be comprised of the top men and women from the top military units in the world, the alpha dog\'s. When all else fails, we don\'t.
