QUOTE(cranx @ Dec 8 2011, 10:56 PM) do they have a shop? RM416 sounds ok considering the price before shipping is already RM280 (90dollars) for the two sets. I already placed my preorder from BBTS.also, is there anyway we can purchase the club subscription figures?  It's gonna be expensive for the Club figs.I'm prepared to fork out RM 1.2K for them.Are you? |

QUOTE(cranx @ Dec 9 2011, 01:57 AM) how much is the price including shipping for those 7 packs? The 7 packs Joe/'Nok combo cost USD89.99 ,while for either pack ,the price is USD49.99 .Shipping cost is not yet determined as the items are on preorder .Estimated shipping costs as per website are USD25.49 (USPS Air Mail) and for the club figures, that is 13 figures for RM1.2k, a lot of money!  actually only interested in a few figures, with that kind of money invested, are you going to open them?  USD32.49 (USPS Express Mail). It's always expensive for club figures ,even more when it's listed on ebay. Yeah ,I'll open all of them.Will buy additional figures for MISB but only for those that I like. |

QUOTE(red5ive-O @ Dec 14 2011, 11:40 AM) The big bad is Zartan and Storm Shadow. And Firefly. Unfortunetely, no Cobra Commander or Baronness in the sequel. Or even Scarlett. But introduces Lady Jaye. Only Channing Tatum, Arnold Vosloo, Ray Park, Jonathan Pryce and Lee Byung-hun are reprising their roles from the first film. The center character beside Pres (Zartan) and Firefly is Cobra Commander,in full face helm this time.Where to get G.I. Joe toys here? Macam shops only sell Transformers and Marvel saja? Added on December 14, 2011, 1:28 pm QUOTE(FunkyMonkiBaby @ Dec 14 2011, 10:38 AM) da ROCK, Bruce Willis, return of storm shadow, Red Ninjas....a HISS tank lookalike, new Joe bike...cant wait for it to hit the cinema. The new Cobra troopers look like urban Alley Vipers.Awesome.I wonder who the is the Cobra character in full face helmet...Cobra Commander or a Cobra Viper? Hope this time they offer real soldiers...enuff of those Vipers. This post has been edited by darkshadow: Dec 14 2011, 01:28 PM |

GI Joe : Retaliation will reach local TRU next month.
However, only selected stores will carry the toys and there will be limited stock. Plus there won't be any restocks . Looks like we won't be seeing wave 3 onwards. Better grab what you want . TRU definitely learnt a painful lesson after the ROC fiasco resulting in huge price clearance. |

QUOTE(FunkyMonkiBaby @ May 24 2012, 09:11 AM) In the TRU promotion leaflet I seen from PAradigm Mall outlet, Gi Joe 2 merchandise will be available at TRU from June onwards. Singapore TRU selling basic figs at $19.95 each .Sucks but fortunately for me ,I've quitted Joes .Just need a few Retaliation figs and I'm moving on to more important stuff.Starting price from RM 5X.XX!!!? Typo error or what? |

QUOTE(FunkyMonkiBaby @ May 24 2012, 03:05 PM) Phew! And I thought how you gonna army build this Gi Joe 2 series. Since Hasbro Msia wants to play inflation, I rather not buy at all. Not as if they are bringin alot to be enjoyed by many. Done with army building.And with the inflated pricing ,I'm better of getting deluxe TF which costs few ringgit more but at least there's playability factor.I want a Cobra trooper card with a trooper illustration, not da ROCK! The Rock figure towers over the other wave 1 figs but Hasbro screwed up by giving him hands that cannot grip anything. |

QUOTE(Odinn @ May 31 2012, 12:33 AM) So they've hit our stores already. Awesome We might get wave 2 locally. Sad thing though the movie is pushed to next year together with waves 2 onwards. You getting the HISS tank? I'm passing on that one. Fail tank to me..the ninjas are awesome though. How much for a single carded fig? HISS Tank cost RM16*.**. RM 61.** for single carded figs. Added on May 31, 2012, 2:01 am QUOTE(cranx @ May 31 2012, 01:29 AM) How much for individual figures and 3 packs? Maybe will grab some. Not really excited with retaliation line. RM 61.** for single carded and RM 162.** for 3 packs.The entire lineup is pretty expensive. Had these been distributed by Hasbro Malaysia,it would be cheaper. Perhaps next year we may get lucky. I noticed that the plastic material is of cheaper variation that the previous offerings(25th,ROC,POC,30th). Red Ninja,Joe Trooper,SS all possess rocker ankle joints. I highly recommend getting the Joe Trooper.Lotsa accessories,lotsa weapons and 4 friggin holsters. This post has been edited by darkshadow: May 31 2012, 02:02 AM |

QUOTE(cranx @ May 31 2012, 02:52 AM) That is crazy. Not buying anything at this kind of prices, will wait for clearance or until movie releases. It's insane and ridiculous. But I adopt the buy now ,regret later mentality just for this once.In case next year's wave1 offering will consist of entirely different figs. Besides, I'm only getting selected figs, so the damage is less felt . Added on May 31, 2012, 12:14 pm QUOTE(FunkyMonkiBaby @ May 31 2012, 09:45 AM) Bro darkshadow couldnt resist the venomous Gi Joe 2 merchadise...he got many em. Congrats on this haul. My outlets still keeping them for tmmrw release. Thanks bro.I kept pestering TRU folks to sell me them a day ahead of schedule. How come Cobra Commander is black? You found the variant edition ke? By placing a chinese label, TRU can apply high price for these Hasbro items. RM 61 per 3.75 inch is ridiculous (bro darkshadow pls dun be offended as Im expressing my own view). Wish it was RM40 so we can buy with ease...even for army building. Yes, apparently TRUs received the variant waves.So all 3 cases in PG's TRU consist of black CC and tan Joe Trooper. Not offended at all coz I felt the same way.Like I told Cranx, I'm adopting a buy now ,regret later attitude just for this once. I think evilbay sells them cheaper though. Added on May 31, 2012, 12:17 pm QUOTE(Odinn @ May 31 2012, 10:46 AM) I don't think he'd be offended by your remark. He'd be more offended by TRU selling at that crazy price The vehicle figs totally sux .Limited articulation and inflated prices just ruins the pleasure and desire of buying and owning them. At RM61 a fig, it is crazy prices. You thought RM39.90 was bad, this is worse. And the 5 packs ROC at the time was going for RM119.90 if I remember correctly..now 3 pack for RM162. Madness. And the HISS tank that has no rolling treads, RM160++. Madness again. I'm passing up on buying locally and maybe buy from BBTS..my Crimson HISS tanks are still there. Or maybe pass up on the movie line entirely. POC and 30th has been the best so far for me. If only they continued with the line and not have to stop for the movie line which now has been pushed to March 2013. MADNESS. POC Hiss Tanks cost RM90.I managed to get one for RM80.At least the driver has full articulation. Just found out that Wave 2 onwards had been delayed to March 2013.

QUOTE(cranx @ May 31 2012, 05:34 PM)  A lot of Retaliation toys at one utama TRU. This is RM101. I will not buy even at RM15. 3 packs, red ninja, black commander, storm shadow all looks good. Just not for those kind of prices. RM5 is all I'll pay . |

QUOTE(cranx @ May 31 2012, 06:43 PM) for some reason I see the red ninja and storm shadow is less compared to the other figures on the pegs. Only 1 Red Ninja per case. Same goes for the other troop builders ,GI Joe Trooper and Cobra Trooper.are these short packed or people biting the bullet paying expensive price? I say be patient and give it few months. the price will come down. Just like Thor and Captain America line, patience always pay off. Prices on ebay, inclusive of shipping for these figs are higher than TRUs. So best to grab just the HOT figs now. Being patience has it's rewards except that only Duke ,Zartan and Roadblock are left on the pegs at clearance price.It's been awhile since SE and SS figs are sold at TRU. Folks tend to grab them. Also bear in mind that only selected TRU stores carry the line. I'm surprised that Joe Trooper includes rocker ankles.Thought there's no articulation on that area. |

QUOTE(cranx @ May 31 2012, 07:21 PM) Good analysis, still too much money for what it is worth. Well, in the end the choice is ours to buy or not.I see your haul picture, you only bought one of the 3 packs, are you not interested with the other one? the one with 2 ninjas and roadblock. So far, I am interested with both of the 3 packs, cobra commander, storm shadow, red ninja and joe trooper. I hope can get all of them at a cheaper price later and troop build those joe troopers and red ninjas. I wish the prices were in accordance to ROC / MU but as I'm not taking chances of finding the HOT figs at clearance,I made my choice to buy them now. And in the event ,these figs are offered again next year ,selling at reasonable price, then I'll get extras. Not getting the Ninja Showdown set coz I'm not interested in that SE, the single carded SS has nicer paint apps(light gray and silver substituting black plus the face is not painted). As for Red Ninja, single carded defines comic Red Ninja .The set version is mostly black with hints of red on the sleeves,neck and face.What's up with that?) I weighed the inclusion of more weapons on the set against the single carded and I decided on getting the Ninja set only on clearance or wait for next year. NO point getting now just for the Samurai hat and Slice's mask. |
