G.I. Joe Action Figure Intro Pack @ Wal~Mart / Toys'R'Us

Not sure if two threads were necessary, however...

... Fairview Wal~Mart had a bunch of the VvV era packs .  I didn't bother to scan them.

that's unexpected. I never collected during those seemingly bleak days for Joe...but there are nice items mixed in the mess of bad product. Did anything worthwhile show up or just unsellable leftovers?

Just to be clear, this is the set I was referring to.

It's not the "Best of Episodes" set that comes with the last piece of the MASS device if that's what you mean?

I just want to know how it's going for. If it's less then $20.00 then I'll get one.

Crap, you are correct. I thought that was what this was.

Bummer.

Nope, I wouldn't touch that pack at that price.

The Duke is passable, and if I had a hankering for an 11th Cobra Commander in 25th style, that one is not bad - but no, this one won't be going home with me.

For some reason I like Storm Shadows colours.  But that's not enough for me to buy the set.  On sale maybe and i think this set is one of those to be seen at Winners in the near future.

Unfortunately, Stealth  I've only ever come across that DVD set twice- once was at the comic shop downtown(when they so lovingly ripped it out of my hands because it was sold as a set with the four other packs I didn't need),  now gone, I'm pretty sure to another member of this board (I hope).  And the second was a buried treasure I luckily found in my travels to Florida.

I saw them last night. Stacks of them. I'm willing to bet these will become peg warmers. I'll wait for this set to go on sale before I buy it because I have interest in paying $25.00 for 4 figures I have multiple copies of. Yes, Storm Shadow is the best thing in the set but the next best figure would be Duke IMO. Snake Eyes is the worst in this set (again, IMO).
