The Targets around here are THICK with the Python Conquest and Tiger Fly's, Best of the 80's DVD pack and a few Viper/IG comic pks. I got the Python Conquest and Viper/IG pk for my birthday present to myself.

Distribution is actually really good in my neck of the woods! In the last few weeks, I have seen TONS of recent Joe stuff on the shelves, even the almost mythical Cobra Diver w/ Water Element is beginning to hang around for a few days at a time! Just about the only thing not in abundance right now is the "Best Of The 80's" DVD pack (I snagged one off of HTS last year so I am good on that one ).

The comic packs seem to be okay in my area.

When new vehicles come they sell leaving Sharks behind to warm the shelf. It's everywhere!

I only saw the Alpine DVD pack once and never again and I didn't buy it. I never saw the Dusty nor Quick Kick ones. Now my local Wal Mart doesn't carry them at all.

The multi packs sell well but they aren't too hard to find.

The figures have been rough. Mutt, Blowtorch and Airborne sell fast. I never saw an Eel nor Trakker figure. The wave with the repaint Ripper is everywhere, in every store I go to!

Nothing here anymore,before Christmas there was alot of new product out on the shelves.Now the local stores usually get about a case a month of single figures and a case every two months of comic packs.It really has allowed me to focus money on other hobbies,which is quite a break from the constant flooding of product that sapped all of my "disposable"income.I want more product but I'm glad for the break I'm getting.

Its really weird. Targets seem to be have more of the new stuff, and they dropped the single price back to $6.99, but raised the comic price to $12.98.
Walmart has had very little in the last few months. No new CPs, or vehicles, and they seemed to get rid of all of the DVD packs, The Arise Serpentor set being the last set they got.
I've never seen the Alpine DVD set at TRU, Wally or Target. I'd order it from HTS if it was in stock. TRU seems intent on selling its exclusive 3 and 5 packs. No new vehicles since the firebat wave. No Water Moccasin, No Ghosthawk, just Firebats, VAMPs, and SHARKs.
I've only seen 1 Fang/Claw set and it had been beat to hell and repacked.

one small victory..

after months I managed to find ONE CObra EEL today, the ONLY one I have ever seen on the pegs in the Boston area since they were released.

The only thing I have not seen at all is the Best of DVD #5 set. My MASS Device is incomplete.
There is still one Water Moccasin at one of my Walmarts. Plenty of Sky Hawks too.

I just remembered that the second round of Target exclusive jets hasn't appeared here yet. I'm not sure if I want either yet, but even if I did, they wouldn't be around to buy. About the only recent wave that isn't getting refreshed on local shelves is 13, everything else is pretty easy to get, even army builders.
