Thanks to neo-viper from the HissTank forums for announcing that he has spotted the incredibly cool looking Toys “R” Us Troop Builder 5-Packs at his local Toys “R” Us in Arkansas. Keep your eyes open!
As Christmas gets a bit closer, more and more retailers will be offering toy-related deals, and bargain website BFAds.com has posted some top secret flyers, including an upcoming November flyer for Toys “R” Us. Apparently, for the month of November, TRU will be selling The Pit for $79.99 as well as the Attack on The Pit 5-Pack for $19.99! Not only that, but HissCommander from The Terror Drome reports that the majority of G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra items (including single packs) will be on sale as well.
Looks like it could be a good toy shopping season!
Coming off the reviews of Waves 4 & 5, I made a little road trip a short while ago and scooped up the two latest exclusives from Target and Toys “R” Us. I’m still working on the Target Rescue Mission review, but I’ve posted the one for the Toys “R” Us Attack on the Pit on my Rise of Cobra Review Page! There are a TON of pictures in this review…more than you’ll see anywhere else.
Enjoy.
Thanks to Gunzlingr from HissTank.com for pointing out that a flyer appeared in the paper yesterday for a sale this week at your local participating K-Mart:
An image of the flyer is mirrored below.
Thanks to the guys at HissTank who have found a nice box shot of the two “Rip Attack” vehicles first revealed at JoeCon. The vehicles are the Jetstorm Cycle w/ Snake Eyes and the Tiger Snake w/ Street-Viper. As I reported earlier this month, we also got a very good look at the art shown here in the last issue of the G.I. Joe Collectors’ Club newsletter.
The figures appear to be Snake Eyes v.1 from the Rise of Cobra line, and a fairly straight-forward Elite-Viper renamed as the Street-Viper. It’s tough to tell in these pictures, but the larger images in the newsletter show the Street-Viper to be an almost black repaint base figure with a nice silver armor. I actually think the Tiger Snake looks pretty sweet, even with the wacky zipcord action. Check out the image mirrored below.
As only Alexx can, he’s covered new Toys “R” Us Exclusive G.I. Joe “Murder Specialist” Bench Press on JoeBattleLines. Check out the mirrored images below. This is one guy I HAVE to find, especially after this. Love it.
