30th Joes starting to appear
ARROW:
Now, don't get TOO excited, folks.....yet.
Local comic shops and specialty collector stores that carry Joes should have the first 30th wave in stores today. My LCS had them ( Prairie province) and I picked up three: Stalker, Viper and Hazard-Viper.
Also, my spy-inside TRU told me that " a new assortment" of Joes is due sometime soon at TRU. This could be the 30th wave appearing on or around the reported Sept 20 street date.
Some folks bemoan not being able to find these at say.....Walmart, and yes this news is not in that light. BUT if you have a LCS near you, check them out. If you have a TRU, stand by for further heads-ups.

I also picked up my Stalker and Hazard Viper today at my local Comic Shop.
ARROW:
Just a little bit of extra info: the cards.
The cardbacks for these 30th figures showing up are all in English language AND they clearly have Hasbro Canada printed on them. Based on my collecting experience, that is usually an indicator of a mass-retailer carrying them.

I think that is just Hasbro Legal being proactive. Hasbro Canada said at the CJC that only Zellers is going to carry the full line up of GI Joe. Not sure if they said Walmart and TRU are going to carry the figures if any. Does anyone else remember what that Hasbro Rep said at her booth?

Walmart is going to have figures, no vehicles, Zellers will have everything, TRU had bits and pieces (if I remember correctly).
