Is the GI Joe line coming to a end. I was at the BI-Mart in Cottage Grove OR, last week and in the toy section, they had a selection of 3.75 GI Joes on narrow little cards with no accessaries at all for $1.75. I have in the past, have seen this type of packaging used at the end on a figures line to close surplus. That how I got my Kenner Super Powers Robin and Firestorm. Then of course the Micronaunts.

ToyFare a Few Months Back said that they were going to gear up for Movie Toy's for Joes,.. when the Movie Toys come & go, then they would consider going back to the RAH line .... The Original Knight ..., Often Imitated, However Never Duplicated. The 1st Knight in Customs.
always trading for Hot Toys Figures .Comment

Yep, Their clearing space for the movie and Resolute lines. Up here, GI JOE is one of the few toy lines that is once again regularily selling out. I hope messing around with the line like this wont kill it off again!?"Crayons taste like purple!"Comment

we have had those small carded figures up here in the northeast for over a year now. I think it was just surplus because at all the major retailers and toy stores they have plenty of Joes and are alway's selling out of the new waves when they hit. The Resolution Cobra Commander looks AWESOME!!!WHEREVER YOU ARE IS WHERE YOU ARE ATComment

Trouble is they ordered way, way too many figures and the sales rep (who I am friends with now) took pity on them and closed them out to a US liquidator, which is why they appeared in the US at all.Places to find PlaidStallions online: https://linktr.ee/Plaidstallions

Those fiures have been at our Dollar General for a couple years or more now. There were a bunch at KB Toys a couple months ago when they were clearing stuff out for their going out of business as well.

Those Super Powers skinny cards were not Kenner closing out the line. What happened was, in Canada Irwin Toys (who was Kenner Canada) sold a promotion to Shell Canada, when you got gas, you could get a figure. The figures came on those skinny cards, probably to save space.
