I'm praying to the GI Joe gods that these end up in a Canadian retailer.  How about Zeller's gets off their ass and gets aggressive with Hasbro and get these.

Or will these be available to smaller retailers, like a certain Bounty Hunter?

Well a smaller line like that with very few package assortments might be picked up by alot of stores...if there is only three in the first wave I think Wal-Mart and the rest will get them...they must have seen them....if Wal-Mart orders the corps....then I am sure they will get the 3-packs...but o......now that I think about it the two packs flopped again....they were regular modular at Wal-Mart for some time...mine never replenished ever...they got one shipment and that was it....maybe that will have a negative influence...???

Ha....Consumers was junk...at least in Kamloops where I grew up...the best place bar none was K-mart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They always had an endcap full at the low low price of $3.97....and they always seemed to have the newest guys first...always!!!!


And here is something someone might find interesting...on April 11th every year two things happened...my birthday...and the new Joes at K-mart...and I am not kidding...for about 4 years in a row right after my birthday party I would ask my mom to take me to K-mart to spend any and all the money I got on Joes...and while I was really into collecting I lucked out with the Joe display beig full of the new guys....all coool....alll luck!!!!!!!!!!!

The Clutch/Hawk/Stalker pack looks like a real winner. I'd like to see a green+yellow Steeler/Flash/Breaker pack next.

Now that the con is in full swing - is there any word if Canada will get these?  This would be the first new Joe item, that I would purchase to have one in package to display and one to open - plus another to customize.

Mike - have you seen them on an order list at all?

Damn I want these!

Well I took the comic six pack figures that Justin Bell took and added them here. Very nice.  But why two Stalkers?  Anyways, Hasbro stated they will make more if these packs do well.  I think they will as they come with a comic book :D

Zap, Grunt (undercover), Snake Eyes

General Flagg, Steeler

COBRA Officer (that comes with Steeler and Flagg)

Horror Show, Stormavich, Stalker

Rock n Roll, Short Fuze, Flash

Breaker, Cobra Commander, Scarlett
