Hi Guys,

Well, I used to come here for my info.  But, I was looking into the
Joesightings.com sighting database and found myself in their forums.
And here are some interesting things that I picked up on:

1)Clutch and Breaker have been rereleased with their respective
vehicles but with new lower arms.  They are now using the lower
forarms that the Tiger Force Duke has.  This eliminated the wonky
wrist joint.  I have not seen these in person.  But, I am on the hunt.

2)The new release of DOC mail away figures is also using the new lower
arm from the TF Duke.  I am going to speculate and hope that the club
ends up with and sells the remainder of this extra run of DOC mail
away figures.
(I have a couple of the original that I would gladly trade straight up
for the new ones)

3)KOHL's Department store has received Wave 10 of the 25th Anniversary
figures.  This includes: TF Duke, Mutt & Junkyard, Wraith, Croc
Master, Arctic Snake Eyes, COBRA Paratrooper, COBRA Bazooka Soldier,
BAT.
They also have the newest Comic 2 packs  Mainframe/Beachhead, Scrap
Iron/Wild Bill, Hard Master/Soft Master.

The bad news is that the figures are priced at $9.99 and the comic
packs at $12.99
The good news is that action figures are on sale, 20% off.  So, 7.99
and $10.39 is OK.
ALSO!  There was a coupon on the check out that if you give them your
email address they will email you a $5 coupon.  And so they did one
day and a few hours later.  So, I'll be looking to buy perhaps a BAT
for $3 if I get the chance tonight.  Only one coupon per email
address.  One Coupon per person, one coupon per transaction.

4)Saw this myself earlier this week: Target has the Joes for $4.99 in
an unadvertised price break.  But, all I have seen are the reissues
and nothing new of note.  I did buy the only Snow Serpent that I saw
in 3 Targets.  Vehicles and Comic 2-packs are not on sale at $15.99
and $10.99 respectively.

5)Big Lots in Vista, CA had some Spy Troops Venow Cycles with Vipers
(Red & Green), Battle Blitz with Grunt (Tan & Green), and Treadfire
with Coil (Red figure).  These were priced at $7.00.  The batteries
were all dead.  I bought some but returned them as the Venom Cycle is
still just too HUGE for 25th figures.
