Kanedas Bike Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 38 minutes ago, Golden Arms said: Good score! You have to find them early in the morning's. I've gotten Beachhead, Baroness and the cobra trooper all the same way. Found stock in morning, and gone to store and picked them up shortly. Hopefully with the cobra trooper being a regular release in the next wave, some of this madness will subside. Thank you thank you! Funny enough it was like 7:30 PM when I was at Target. I knew it was a long shot and that like you said most "finds" have to happen in the morning so I know that I got extra lucky. -b. Quote
Golden Arms Posted September 5, 2020 Posted September 5, 2020 (edited) Met a few other toy collectors this morning at my local target. Keep hunting! Edited September 5, 2020 by Golden Arms Quote
Mommar Posted September 6, 2020 Posted September 6, 2020 Are Targets only getting the one case of one type of figure? Because it looks like all five Targets in Albuquerque only got Roadblock. Quote
Golden Arms Posted September 6, 2020 Posted September 6, 2020 (edited) No. The target I went to this morning got 2 cases of wave 2. Each case was packed with each figure of the wave. Seems the stores in my area have been getting repacks of the Cobra troopers, baroness and wave 3 (only verified at store I picked them up). The other targets were getting in Baroness. She seems packed 2 per case. I haven't been searching for wave 3 as its sold everywhere online. Edited September 6, 2020 by Golden Arms Quote
Axelay Posted September 10, 2020 Posted September 10, 2020 If anybody has an extra Trooper which they would be willing to sell, I'd be interested. Between my teaching schedule and my children, I don't have the ability to drop everything and go run to Target often. Every time I've seen them in stock on Popfindr and then go to the store to try to grab one, the employees won't give me the time of day no matter how polite I may be. I'm just beyond frustrated. I never had any idea that these would be so difficult to acquire. Quote

David Hingtgen Posted September 17, 2020 Posted September 17, 2020 They just used pics of the original toys. Actual releases aren't half that nice/detailed. Quote
derex3592 Posted September 17, 2020 Posted September 17, 2020 That's a bummer to hear. I would have loved to start collecting those if they were any good. Quote

General Rasp Posted September 24, 2020 Posted September 24, 2020 Did everyone get there pre-order in for Snake Supreme Cobra Commander? Quote
Roy Focker Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 Nope I only need 1 version of Cobra Commander. Quote
Mog Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 ^^Hasbro Exec: “Okay, we’ll give you one version of Cobra Commander . . . with his updated look. And one version of CC with a hood. And one version with gold weapons and red and black color scheme. And one version in battle armor. And one version in ceremonial gear. And one version with a vac-metal mask. And one version for the alternate universe where Destro becomes the Cobra Commander. And one version for the timeline where Duke’s evil twin is actually Cobra Commander. And one version . . .” Quote
Golden Arms Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 (edited) Nice score!! I got my order in for Cobra Commander. Edited September 25, 2020 by Golden Arms Quote
connor99 Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 (edited) Yesss!! Finally got me a Cobra Night Creep...err... Red Ninja! Edited September 25, 2020 by connor99 Forgot pic Quote
General Rasp Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 Nice! I haven't seen anything in my area and they haven't been showing up on Popfinder. Quote
Mommar Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 Just now, General Rasp said: Nice! I haven't seen anything in my area and they haven't been showing up on Popfinder. I found a solitary Cobra Commander at Walgreens and absolutely nothing else. Quote
connor99 Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 Found this at a neighboring city’s Walmart along with 3 CC & 2 Gung-ho’s. Quote

Jeremy007 Posted September 26, 2020 Posted September 26, 2020 In another d!ck move by hasbro, two of the most wanted figures, firefly and cobra viper are target exclusives. They will be impossible to find except on ebay for close to $100. Quote
sh9000 Posted September 26, 2020 Author Posted September 26, 2020 I’m kind of not liking Firefly so I might not go out of my way to try to get him. I’ll see if I can get a Cobra Viper in the store or just wait for the inevitable regular version with a different color blue and maybe less red on his chest. No tax or limit on Cobra Troopers at Dorkside. Preordered 2 Zartans and 9 Cobra Troopers. Also preordered the Retro wave 2 at Walmart. Quote
Negotiator Posted September 26, 2020 Posted September 26, 2020 i only wanted zartan and viper out of these. i'm not digging firefly either. someone please post if zartan pops up on amazon. I have him POd, but pulse takes forever to ship something. Quote
sh9000 Posted September 27, 2020 Author Posted September 27, 2020 I didn’t notice that earlier. Cool. Quote
