Amazon black friday deals are starting to show up for some classified figures.
and it isn't really worth mentioning but Toysrus.ca has also put items on "sale" making them slightly more than what they should be priced at normally.

Some okay Amazon prices, but everything on sale I already have.

Toys R Us is also having another Buy One, Get One Free on clearance items.   So if you can find something(s) worth your time now is the time to look.

Walmart.ca has
G.I. Joe Classified Series Lady Jaye
G.I. Joe Classified Series Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins Storm Shadow
G.I. Joe Classified Series Snake Eyes: G.I. Joe Origins Snake Eyes

for $9.

LOL!  Sadly true.

What is happening with the Classified Retro carded Viper?

He is sold-out on Walmart, Game stop, Maple, Toy Snowman, ...

Low stock on Hasbro Pulse

MIA on Amazon...

I get it, he is a troop bulder, but still, I don't see collectors buying dozen of him. It's weird...

I imagine it is just the early sell out of preorder stock.   Same thing happened with the Retro Cobra Trooper but now he is available pretty much everywhere.

If you are really worried DJC Collectibles (out of Ottawa) has the Retro Viper still available for preorder.   The only thing is you have to pay in full up front.   They are a great online e-tailer who I use frequently (because I'm in Ottawa so no shipping costs).

One word: scalpers.

So I haven't seen any figure swapping at Toysrus recently, probably because they changed their return policy on action figures.  Sadly Walmart is no the home of this scum.   Power Ranger figures and discount Marvel Legends are what are being stuffed into Classified window boxes.

Where abouts are you located?

I'm in Ottawa and I haven't seen figure swapping in a while.   Of course it doesn't help that there isn't much to see on shelves to begin with.   TRU is the only place with more than one or two figures on the pegs.  Walmart is hit or miss.  Some local ones have nothing, and others have a couple here and there but nothing really desirable.   Gamestop is okay, but that is probably because they aren't quite as clueless as Walmart.

As for Classified itself, I am almost all caught up on releases (outside of a couple older ones I still haven't acquired).   Just need to pick up Alpine and then I am done until the SAW Viper wave starts showing up.   Recently got Road Pig and man-o-man is he a great figure.  I know there are complaints about his body shape and stomach tatoo, but I think they did a great job with him.   I can see him either way with, or without, the tatoo, but I think his more football lineman body type over huge bodybuilder type is a better look for him.

Agreed on Road-Pig!!  I am in Halton Hills and the last two walmart visits had the 60th Anniversary Sniper and ParaTrooper both swapped for other crap figures.    The person at the return counter must be blind, or does give a crap (I assume the later).  Best part was the box of the Sniper was beat up and damaged, but was still full price!
