I wen to three different Winners and found the Wave 3 Alphas for sale. They were going for $12.99 but if your Walmart is always sold out check out your Winners! They had Bravos for $19.99 as well. But the main reason to go to Winners is that they have 25th Anniversary figures for $4.99, OMG!!!
-
The 3 stores I went to were:
McCowan and Milner Road - they had 2 Snow Serpents and Storm Shadow (GI Joe version) for figures I took the Firefly... They had for Bravos was 1 Dragonhawk and Crimson Hydra... Alphas were Desert Rockslide and Tiger Claw
Markville Mall - They have 2 Flints wave 1 for figures I took the Sgt. Stalker for pdaat...No Bravos... Alphas were Lava Pod and Tiger Claw
Stouffville (Hoover Road) - No 25th figures and Bravos... 1 complete set of Wave 3 alphas
I will be hitting more stores tomorrow

Hey Mods, I just got confirmation that Winners has them in BC as well. Do we move this tread to All Accross Canada or just leave it here?

Moved! Thanks!

Are the 25th figures the cartoon/comic back cards or the foil ones? Cheers for any info.
-
The ones I have found are Non-foil Amercian cards.

1900 Eglinton and Pharmacy Ave - No Alphas or Bravos... and 1 Firefly figure

Bravo Vehicles are at $19.99 same as Zellers... Not a great deal but if your Walmart does not have it....
-
I think Toronto Winners got a few cases of Joes and just sent a couple of random figures to different stores, Gerrard Square got Flint, Beachhead and one set of Alpha.

Thanks, Checked Coquitlam and found Flint, Stalker, and luckily Snow Job. No Alphas. but 1 DragonHawk.
-
Picked up Beach Head, Firefly & snow job 25th aniv. figs at the new Oshawa Walmart. $4.99 each. the only other thing I saw there was the snake eyes mask/sword set for $15.00 and a couple 12inch snake eyes and storm shadows (barbie style
) Gonna check some of the others out this way maybe friday!

Just remember guys at last years Joe Con most of these figures were $5 each (which is cheaper than retail), and I'm thinking this year they just might be cheaper!

I hope that dealer is back as well so I can try to find the last few 25th ann. figures that I'm missing...

Went to few Winners in my area today. picked up a dragon hawk (19.99) at the pickering winners (Brock) they had the alpha wave 3 (12.99) aswell as a few ROC figs for 6.99. Went to the ajax one aswell and there is a dragon hawk there aswell that I left, plus the alpha 3 and ROC Figs. While at the whitby winners I found the ROC figs with 2 different prices. some were 4.99 and some 6.99. Picked up a ROC Flash for my son to have as he always asks to get that one and finally found it... for cheap! Did not see any 25th aniversary and at any of these winners!
-
.. hit the Scarborough Winners (McCowen &401). what a mess... toy dept. was a write off. they had a few ROC figs scattered about (the usual mix storm shadow, baroness, etc.) there was a Dragon Hawk there aswell and I left it behind. I did find a 25th Aniv. Flint (Cartoon Series) I was not looking forward to finding this one as I have the box set that included Flint and figured it wasa the same figure. Clearly I was wrong in my thinking and found this one to be quite different... so I picked it up aswell. I usually only collect vintage 80's joes and vehicles but these do look pretty good

Once you start getting a few 25th youll be sucked in, trust me ;D

You are so right, I only bought the 25th ann. figures while I was waiting for PoC. Now I almost have them all... and it has been only 3 months.

Winners at Markville Mall dropped the price of RoC BRAVO vehicles to $16.99. They had 2 Dragonhawks and 2 Crimson Hydras in stock. The Wave 3 Alphas are still $12.99
-
FYI I was in Winners in Woodstock last weekend - NO Alpha items at all. NO 25th items.
Some ROC figures - that Crimson Neo Guard, Baroness, and others. 6.99 each
-
found a restock of two cases of W3 Alphas and Dragonhawks/Hydras at Masonville Winners in London. I grabbed the Tiger Claws but the rest are still there. I went to one other (Fanshawe) and it was tapped out of all Joe stuff other than non-figure movie tie-ins.
-
The Winners at McCowan and 401 still has the Wave 3 alphas in stock. They had the Lava Pod, Desert Rockside and 2 Tiger Claws left.
-
Still finding the odd RAH at Winners. Saw some Bazooka Troopers a few days ago. Not sure if these were just sitting in the back or are still trickling out to stores...

Same here. In the last 2 weeks I've seen a B.A.T. (bought it) 3 Arctic Snake Eyes (passed), 2 Wraiths (passed on them). Iron Grenadier/Viper 2 pack (bought it) and 2 Armour Cobra Commander/Gung Ho 2 packs (passed).
-
ya same here... found 2th Mutt, Sbanke eyes (AT), para viper, cobra bazooka trouper and Wraith. all american carded i believe. I picked up Mutt and the snake eyes to stuff in my sons stocking for christmas!
-
He's going to love them (Mutts a cool character and an even cooler figure ;D)
just wish they would put out some of the singles and two packs I missed. 20 + bucks for a 2 pack is steep but 12.99 isnt to bad.
-
The Winners at Markville Mall still has the Wave 3 Alphas and they have been reduced to $10 each. They had 3 of the 4, just missing the polar sharc.
-
Winners is carrying 25th again and not just a smattering of figures, lots and lots of figures. The Winners I was just at had at least two or more of each: Eels, Flint Cobra, Scarlett Pilot, Zartan, Cobra Paratrooper, Airborne and maybe a couple of other figures. All Winners probably won't get the same cases but looks like 25th is back.

Hurray! Just in time for Christmas, 2 year old stock.
If they are $3.00 or less then maybe.
Thanks for the info update!
-
they are $5.99 each, still not bad IMO. They had Matt Tracker as well, which is a total "doh" about forgetting on the list because he's the only one I actually bought.
-
Saw these last night too and Grabbed Trackker and an Eel...I WANT EELS!!!
-
I grabbed a Mutt for a POC/ROC custom. I also picked up Airborne for an updated Steel Brigade figure.

I saw 3 eels at the Winners at McCowan Ave and the 401.
-
I was surprised when I looked at the Mutt and Airborne that my wife picked up for me that they are on US cards. Nice ;D now I can replace the canadian cards in my binders.

Are you full of Eels now or do you need more?
-
Yeah for the moment I'm full. I usually get 5 of the troops so I have a decent squad (except crimson gaurds I have 12 of those lol. Never had it as a kid and ALWAYS wanted it, so I went a bit nuts ;D )
-
Just at the Winners at Markville Mall and they reduced the price of the Wave 3 Alphas to $8. They only had the Tiger Claw and Lava Pod. They also got a lot of the RoC figs but they are at $5. They also had Venom Vs Valour! But at $12.99 not sure if that is worth it.
