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.

So some online retailer has leaked a list of items he says he was able to order this week. It looks like a list of what to expect for Yo Joe June reveals (at least the ones to go up for preorder).
He had:
(Next wave): Alpine, IG BAT, Iron Grenadier, Storm Shadow V2
A Stinger with Driver
Mad Marauders Sgt. Slaughter
60th Action Marine and Halo Jumper
Retro Cobra Commander and Retro Cobra Trooper
Some interesting tidbits. Storm Shadow V2 is the only figure from the next wave that hadn't been spoiled/revealed. There had been chatter about the possibility, but nothing really concrete. The Stinger is a nice surprise, mostly because if the retailer can order it then that could mean it won't be a Pulse exclusive like the VAMP. Otherwise not a big surprise once they revealed the VAMP. MM Sgt. Slaughter had already leaked so not a big surprise. I wonder if the MM Spirit/Low-Light two pack will show up as well? The 60th is also not a big surprise, but the switch from a Pilot to the Halo Jumper is interesting. I wonder if they might give us a cloth parachute pack-in? The Retro wave is cool, but missing one more figure since there is supposed to be 3 waves of 3 figures for 2024. Hopefully the final figure is either Flint or Major Bludd. The retailer mentioned the possibility of the Cobra Commander being the hooded version, but I'll believe it when I see it.
Can't wait for Yo Joe June to start. Should be fun and hopefully lots more reveals (name only, digital, physical) and maybe a Dragonfly unboxing?
