The movie figures I saw today at TRU were total pieces of crap. The vehicles were crap. The vehicle drivers were especially crappy, like star wars figures from 1979 articulation wise. I DID like the night ops Roadblock, but he was in a 3 pack with two turds. If the rest of the movie line is not any better, they can keep them. I hate to be negative about my favorite toys, but they had ZERO appeal to me. I wanted to spend about $50, and ended up looking at LEGOS instead. I walked out of the store without buying anything. I went to Wal Mart and Target, which both had nothing out. I hit 2 Dollar General stores and found nothing. I guess I should be glad I already have hundreds of figures so that I have something to play with until the next good figures come out.

I talked to a Hasbro Rep here in Knoxville, and she said they received a "memo" from higher up the chain to pull all the GI Joe toys and send them back.
Is it me or is that completely opposite of what Hasbro said in the press release?
Either way, I got a Roadblock and Storm Shadow... As soon as I find a CC I'll be done with the movie line.

Opposite of what my buddy who is a manager at a WM told me as well, he never saw any type of memo or heard anything about a recall. Then again SUPPOSIDLY reps aren't even sure about anything (at least that is what the appologists say when they confirm something they don't want to hear) so who knows.

I had the same "problem" with BBTS and they are my main source too. Well, I'm not going to pay that price for a case with so much figures I have zero interest in. I've ordered just one joe trooper from eBay and will wait for the preorders untill 2013...Unfortunately those items will not show up at stores here in Brazil before the movie date, which now I have no idea when will be...

you're probably right since i already have the 3 pack retaliation set.i dont want to stock-up on another duke, snake-eyes and storm shadow and i specially hate that "chocolate bar" roadblock (such a waste of potential) . i might go to ebay for the joe trooper / red ninja. where did you buy yours? viperskingdom? do you have any recommendation?

Got my trooper from commander nate, he's a nice seller and I have negotiated with him before. He had two of the troopers last thursday(05/31 - when I ordered my figure). Already shipped. Don't know if the other one is still in stock, but I've seen plenty of them from other sellers. Mine will be the tan cloak variation. The price is steep, not less than 25.00 per figure, that's why I ordered just one, only to satisfy my desire for this figure and not having to wait till 2013.
I got one of the 3 packs too(that with Beachhead) from BBTS and it's on the way. I don't care much about the ninja one, which I'll wait for 2013 to get with all that postponed preorders.
