G.I. Joe Kung Fu grip at Walmart

[megoat]

The thing that sucks about that Air Adventurer, is he's dressed in Sea Adventurer threads. Wal Mart figs are correct:

I got a couple Air Adv today from Urban outfitters. I gotta say I was pretty excited to open one up. The boxes are real nice. Joe himself seems kinda loosely strung and the hair isn't as cool. It's shorter and harder, but over all very cool and fun to open. I'll post some pics in a bit.

[Werewolf]

Anyone got pics of these?

[megoat]

FYI, my wal-mart has a ton of these. Must have been 50 of em piled high.....

[VintageMike]

Huh? Isn't Wal-Mart like Savoir Faire? "Eeet's evvverywhere"*



*supply your own French accent....

Both Walmart and Target don't have nearby stores in my area.
It's at least a 45 minute drive for me. Pretty odd since one the biggest shopping areas in the country (Paramus, NJ) is only 10 minutes away from me! Somehow the big boxes haven't found their way there.

None in Polk County FLA yet. Checking Sam's Club Saturday.

I better check my Wal*Mart tomorrow after work. I want the whole set. I hope they have them. There's already some on eBay so I guess the madness has begun.

[megoat]

Just picked one up tonight, impulsively. Repro toys are usually not my bag, but it caught me by surprise and I gave in...... They had only one lonely Land Adventurer.

I'm in Central Florida, and no sightings here so far. Will post when I manage to find any and get my hands on them.

[JDeRouen]

I'll be looking for them, will be happy to pick up extras if they don't have what you're looking for in your area, and vice versa. I live in the Wal-Mart world capital, so they better well be here.

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

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 hope that these reach Canada.

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 hope that these reach Canada.
