Best of the 80's DVD pack
Ok, I understand I'm 3,000 miles away in Iraq. It's hard for me to find ANYTHING GI Joe related unless it's online, but I have heard a few others state how difficult it is to find a "Best of the 80's" battle pack. Anyone got any word what's going on with that?
What I mean is, did they only make a limited number? Is it THAT hot an item that it's outselling the other DVD packs? It's funny, but it seems like Toy Companies are like this. They get you to start buying a set of stuff, then make the last unit harder to find and get a hold of. What do they hope to gain? Is it a conspiracy? I would like to complete my MASS Device.(Which is the only REAL reason I bought the sets!) This is why I don't mess with the Marvel Action figures that have one piece of a larger figure in it. I'd be missing one limb or head and never get the damn thing completed.
Anyone bought JUST set 5 for the figures and DVD and want to trade some figures for the final piece of the MASS Device?

Likewise. I got sets 3, 4, and 5 from Hasbrotoyshop. All the stores around here just keep restocking sets 1 and 2.
...But that's the problem I've had with the 25th in my area since day one. I see maybe every third or fourth wave in stores. All the others, I have to order online. It's very frustrating.

I managed to snag set 5 last Friday night, fresh case opening up as I am coming down the aisle, and I peek in, and was shocked. ONE set 5 in the 4 pack case, 2 set 3 and one set 4. Unless they have a revision case with 2 or 3 set 5 in the future, it is going to be hard to come by.
A side note, the Cobra Commander with the set is great, I love the chromed faceplate.
