Thread: G.I. Joe Kung Fu grip at Walmart

  1. #21
    I missed out on the Hot Topic ones so I'm definitely going to pick up some these.
    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

    If anyone starts seeing these pop up, let everyone know.

    WalMart is not a daily or even weekly pilgrimage for me but will definitely head over there when they start to show up.

    I'm also thinking they may be available via their website.

    That one was released a few years ago w/ a new Joe body and Kung Fu Grip. The only trouble was the way they made the tank, rubber + plastic= meltdown. Come to think of it, so did the suit. I have to store my rubber stuff in a paper bag away from the figures.

    Hey Everyone,

    It looks like the WalMart exclusive Joes might be starting to arrive.

    There weren't any at my local WalMart but there are two sets on EBAY right now so either the person has grabbed them before they have made their ways to the shelves or they are starting to arrive.

    If anyone is trying to find these besides me, post your interest so if some of run across them, we can pick up extras for those of you looking for them.

    If they don't, I'm happy to pick up extra sets for anyone who wants them as long as they're available.

    I was hoping they would be listed on the WalMart website but I don't see them on there.

    At $10 a piece, you really can't go wrong. I was thinking they'd make a great gift for my 7 year old too.

    As a side note, I was reading an article about G.I. Joes over the weekend and it talked about how MEGO's 8 inch WGSH line pretty much destroyed the 12 inch G.I. Joe figure. When G.I. Joe tried to move to an 8 inch scale, along came Star Wars figures which brought an end to 8 and 12 inch figures as we knew them. I know this isn't new news to anyone but thought it was an interesting re-read anyway.

    I went to Walmart at lunch today and had no luck. I talked to a woman stocking shelves and she said that a Hasbro rep was in the store earlier today talking about them, but they hadn't shown up yet.

    and oh yeah... I got confirmation yesterday from Urban Outfitters that the 2 Joes I ordered last Friday have been shipped.

    I wonder if these will be available online in the Walmart store online?
