Been checking out the SDCC news and have come to a realization. Target has the majority of the G.I. Joe exclusives and Wal*Mart has the bulk of the Star Wars. Anyone else notice this or am I putting my head up my :brawler:

Yeah, the Joe shelf space at my Wal-Mart is only about a foot wide and filled up with stuff that's been there since before Christmas. I don't think I've seen a decent Joe offering at Wally World since at least 1994.

My Wal-Mart has 3 endcaps FULL of GI Joe. Just as much if not more as Target does.

But Wal-Mart just keeps restocking with the same first couple waves while Target gets new stuff. So Target it is!

my walmart only gave an endcap to the snake-eyes dress up stuff. The rest is crammed into a corner where they used to have the DB:evolution stuff. Also a few pegs over is a Roadblock v.2 and a major bludd.

Your Wal-Mart is the only one in America that has seriously put out Joe stuff then. The others around me look like they're waiting until after this weekend's back to school tax free stuff to put theirs out.

I'll try and snap a picture of how it looks here. Wal-Mart may finally redo the way they stock G.I.Joe eventually, but right now it's like they really don't want it.

My 2 local Wal*Marts still have no RoC stuff on display. Target has 4 end caps plus the normal Joe space, my TRU has the front of store promotion and a few pegs in the normal Joe display.
