Battle Hornet & Neutralizer
« on: August 03, 2004, 10:18:50 PM »

Saw them both today at ToysRus in Mississauga, picked one of each up, price tag of $16.99 - not worth it in my opinion, but it was more of an impulse purchase as it is so rare that vehicles appear on Canadian shelves.

Sadly, so far it has been a losing cause.

I hear ya brother......... :roll:  let's see, we got an overload of rockslides,
cobra mantis subs, and the piece de resistance......(drumroll) The road rebel.... :oops:  We have got a lot of crappy vehicals over the course of a year. Ive only seen 1 chopper (desert helicopter) at toys r us at the queensway,  I should have picked it up :( . and that's all.  We need to get some of the bigger vehicles that are out there. Walmart and the other stores are losing money hand over fist.  I guarantee them there shelves would be empty like they usually are, but they would sell the "BIGGER MORE EXPENSIVE" items....... I just dont get it.


Also a little off topic, but does anybody know if they are selling joes at COSTCO, or SAM'S CLUB.... I heard something about it but Im not sure about it. I have a sam's club membership , and my girlfriend has a costco membership. So im covered if i have to go there.

Costco will have an exclusive 3 3/4 G.I.Joe Battel in a Box set that will have 2 vehicles and 6 figures. Figures are Tunnel Rat, Dart, Nunchuck, Tech Viper, Cobra Coils, Pit Viper. No mention of vehicles or time when it is showing up but it's suggested price is $24.88.

Nice, I will be all over that exclusive, however I haven't seen any of the Joe stuff at Sam's Club or Costco.

I remember seeing a pic of that, it comes with the rigneck and the smoke screen transport,

Does anybody know when it comes out to costco stores?

I copied the picture to my desktop, but if we can post pictures, I don't know how to do it.

Oh for Pete's sake, an American collector picked these up for me last week. At least the stores up here are starting to realize you have to bring in new product soon, almost the same time as it hits the US market. Or people like me will find other ways to get them. But bring in the larger vehicles. I hate paying shipping on those items.

Can someone named Pete get away with saying "Oh for Pete's sake" or would it be "Oh for my sake"?  :shifty:
