Title: ROC toys at walmart
Post by: joss789 on June 26, 2009, 04:17:45 PM
The ROC toys hits retail in Quebec.  I saw some at walmart in Victoriaville.
I picked a Night Raven (48.92$), Steel Crusher(28.92$) and few figures :Sgt. Stone, Cobra Viper Commando, Deep Six, Shipwreck and Cover Girl. Figures are 9.44$.
They also have the Cobra Gunship and more figures. 

This is a great day!

It's about the same figures i left on the pegs.  I was looking for Baroness, Storm Shadow, Snake Eyes and maybe some desert Duke but nothing.  Hope Walmart get them in the next shipment!
I'm happy that someone else found them.  I tought it was a mistake from my Walmart to putting the figures for sale before July.

Found these at the Wal*Mart on Cavendish in Montreal. Same wave, although they were low on single packs. I was hoping for a Shipwreck and Stone and both were gone. Seeing them in person made me add a few more to my list, however.

I forgot to mention that I did see "Shipshape" at Walmart of Carrefour Langelier. There was only one left...

Technically there's only one of every figure in that wave/case with the exception of ripcord....so there'd only be one left or none at all hehehe...since walmart is only stocking a case at a time.

The case breakdown is as follows

wave 1
snake-eyes x2
stormshadow x2
duke (camo)x2
baroness x2
destro x2
viper x2

wave 2
cobra commander x2
duke (accelerator) x2
stormshadow Paris Persuit x2
snake-eyes Paris Persuit x2
scarlett (accelerator) x1
ice viper x1
snake-eyes (carry over) x1
stormshadow (carry over) x1

wave 3
sgt. stone x1
cover girl x1
shipwreck x1
heavy duty (accelerator) x1
heavy duty (camo) x1
viper commando x1
deep six x1
breaker x1
scarlett (camo) x1
zartan x1
ripcord (accelerator) x2

These 3 waves should be available to us at the same time right off the bat, plus a bunch of the vehicles.


They are slowly trickling in a case at a time here and there, but in the coming weeks, I'm sure you'll see everything hit full force. All the TRUs, Wal-Marts, and Zellers will be full of them. So be patient guys. It's tough I know. I also saw the figs this week in person and fell in love with them. I originally was going to pass, but they are great and had to pick some up.

The most suprising part is that the filecard on the cardback is in english, and the spanish and french are inserts.

Just came back today from my Independance Day toy hunt  :lol: at Gallerie d'Anjou and Toys R' US.

Toys R' US is packed with ROC gijoes. There's almost a good 60 of the figures. I wasn't able to find Desert Scarlett or the unmasked Storm Shadow or Paris Snakes with trenchcoat.

You might have better luck spotting these in Walmarts anywhere.

Happy hunting!

FYI I eventually returned to Walmart of Langelier a few days later and found them. They just don't seem to have this wave right now at ToysRus of Anjou...

Did they still have plenty or did they just put one or two cases on the pegs?

They only had about ten to twelve figures each of the 2 saturdays that i went. If you see another guy looking at the Joes, dont hesitate to say hi, it could be me you never know :wink:. I'll do the same!
