Also check K-Marts for the new wave of vehicles.  People have found on the east coast, Michigan, California, Illinois and other states.  I checked a couple but didn't see any on the shelf.

I scored Wave 7, Bludd, and Arctic Snake Eyes @ kmart last week. first I haven't seen or purchase an new Joe since I got Torpedo and Rock n' Roll, then I found the entire wave 7 except for the HISS Driver, then on Saturday I got Bludd, and Snake Eyes (the only ones I wanted in this wave), I am just missing HISS Driver.

Still haven't had any luck on finding w7 again.  I really need a Wild Bill to crack open.

Oh and on a run today to snag the Droid Factory figs for Rob, I saw remnants of Wave 8 (Cobra Commander with MASS Particles, Roadblock and Tiger Force Flint)

+++EDIT++++

Got the Vehicles today from a source of mine.

I'll take some pics and post them here tomorrow.  The Clutch is really a Great Figure...the Steeler is a real let down.

[Alyosha]

I don't believe you.  I demand pics and a copy of the receipt. 














I keed, because I love.

[Paul]

Ouch.

Ok Pics after work today.

Some observations though.  I like the new lower legs that they were going for on Clutch and Steeler, but the execution lacks a bit.  It is a very Marvel Comic/82 RAH Joe look, so it is good, but they used the upper legs from the SE body and they don't match up well.  Yes I know, pointless without pictures, I am more putting this as a marker to remind myself to take those photos.

The vehicle updates are pretty neat.  I really think the RAM may be mostly new, I don't have access to my vintage one to compare, but the Gas Tank seems very thin.  The Saddle Bags/Pannier Bags can open and that is actually where I found Breaker's pistol.  I can see getting several of the RAM/Trouble Bubble 2 pack, it is by far the best deal.

How's the Vamp?  My favorite Joe vehicle as a kid...  Small, but had the most play value to it to me, for fast chases and stuff.  Loved that thing and beat the hell out of it.

[Paul]

It is very nice...the new gun with the hoses and stuff is very neat.  And like I said before, this Clutch is very cool.  If he didn't have Duke's wrist articulation, he would be the ultimate for sure.  I'm not thrilled with the boot holster...but I can get over that.

[Matt R.]

I got my Doc Today, He is great except for those dumb duke arms. He is one of my favorites figures they did so far.

[Jesse James]

Are the tools and stuff are separate pieces on the new Vamp or just painted?

[Paul]

Wow, didn't even notice/check that till you asked...the E-Tool on the front fender is removable and molded in Gray.  The Bedroll is removable (in fact you have to take it off to put a sticker on)...the hood opens too....

And now (sorry Aly no receipt)....pics...

[spiderpumpkin]

Thanks for the pictures.  Got to love those Tele-Viper wrists.  Looks like the figures sit a little high n the VAMP and look right at the bar.
