I don't blame you not for ROC, but these POC figures are such a step up from the movie toys that it's worth it just to make sure I don't miss one. On the other hand, I have seen every POC carded guy on a peg at least once between various WM and Zellers. Maybe I just feel like if I don't just once, I won't get the figure. It did take me about nine months after release to find City Strike SE in Canada but even he showed up.

I've been playing it safe and ordering each wave from the states, only a dollar or two more per figure in the end and I get the filecard to cut out. The ones I find in Canada are just gravy. Still trying to get the vehicles up here though, those are simply too dear to import after shipping and risking duty. I'm still holding my breath for Vamps and Rages to hit shelves in my city.

The only problem I have had is that requesting/resetting my password never works, I don't even get an email. I can only log on on one computer because I forgot the password and it autofills on my PC. I don't want to start another account just to be able to log on on my laptop. Speed wise the site's been ok with Bell DSL.

Maybe by the summer TRU will get on the boat? With the TV show tie-in I think they'll start selling Joes again.

Oh and I love that Sci Fi! I still remember getting my original at TRU in 1987 when my uncle took me one day. He made fun of me for liking it since it was so non-Army looking and he was career military. It hadn't even crossed my mind that Joes were unrealistic up to that point.

I love the Action Man Hasbro put out in the 00s 3.75 line. Bought the whole Night Force set just to get him last year. Had no idea the property was so active.

I like what I see, but Blowtorch and Croc Master? Really? Anyone having a hard time finishing their 25th sculpts surely aren't missing those guys are they? Why not Alpine or some character that's never been an easy-to-find character? OK well maybe we've never stumbled over extra 25th Blowtorch figures, he's been quite easy to come by if you're patient. I am happy though, just a little frustrated at the two minor repaints filling in the line where I see opportunity to entice collectors a little better.

I haven't been in the city in a few months so I can't say for certain, but I've seen the HISS at most Zellers and Walmarts recently out here in London so those stores are probably worth a look if you have one in your neighborhood.

when are these going to be in stores? I only collect Star Wars and Joes as far as 3.75 stuff goes but those AWEs look great and who can't use some dinosaurs?

Fanshawe WM had one Ice Cutter and a w3 Duke and w3 SS, no pegs or markers for any of it. :(

I am afraid I am gonna have to bring in outside support to get the three other vehicles I am missing.

General Joe Talk / Re: New pics from Hasbro - Destro, Shadow Tracker, Skydive!
« on: January 13, 2011, 11:05:22 PM »
I just got the four of these in the mail today, man this is a pretty nice wave! Lowlight is the best of the lot by far, and yes he comes with a removable single bullet. His backpack opens (to hold the rest of his gear) and the rifle case hooks on the backpack. Some stuff hooks on him too. The Destro is ridiculous but cool. Why are we getting two of him so close together though? He's usually a bit more spread out over series. Shadow Tracker is the worst looking POC guy to me, along with TRU Spirit. Just not feeling the neon. That Skydive figure is amazing, I just wish he had a face or swappable head with a face.

plenty of W3 SE, Duke and SS at Masonville Zellers, no more Shock Troopers that I could find (I found two); Highbury Zeller's down to a lone CC.

saw the Duke and Stormy left over at Argyle WM in London, no love on the good figures though.

They also have the AT-AT for 70 bucks. Bargain!
