The "I actually purchased ROC toys" thread

[devlinboy]

At least get a few. Take full advantage of 2 for 9.99$ plus get the 10$ gift card for a purchase over 30$. I now have one of every figure thanks to the sale and 20$ in gift cards.

you guys are enablers lol

 

[Silent December]

Just lookin' out for my peeps!

 

[devlinboy]

u have a point, it is a nice deal at TRU . 6 figures $20. does it only work on ROC figs?

 

[Silent December]

It works on ROC product so you can get figures, vehicles, role play etc. etc. As long as you spend over 30$ you get the gift card. The gift card alone is pretty sweet. It's a lenticular Snake Eyes-Stormshadow collector gift card.

sale doesnt include any of the 25th figures?

 

[Valfar]

Need to find a better source for your pics there bub.

LOL! it was there for a little bit after i posted it initially..strange..

 

[Silent December]

The add specifically calls for rise of cobra figures, so I doubt it would include 25th. figures since the sale is SKU specific.

 

[devlinboy]

i would be so tempted to buy them, get the gift cards and return the figures. then i would buy them back lol. i am scum

 

[Buttmunch]

Only the Roc figures are 2 for $10. But I think ANY GI Joe prodcuts will work to get you to the $30 for the gift card. At least that is what the signs at my TRU seem to indicate.

yeah I know, atleast I would hope I knew since I work there. Just lack of sleep I guess, no other reason behind me putting a ? at the end of that sentence.

And the 25th figs dont count towards the giftcard either, when scanned nothing shows up as joe promo or anything.

 

[Silent December]

you work at TRU Sniper? I was a "world leader" (gawd, I always hated that title! lol) at a TRU here in San Diego for 5 years.

Then there are a lot of misleading signs at my TRUs.

Well my Joe hunt day SUCKED! 2 Targets, one TRU, no wave 3 figures! Thought I would at least catch up on some of the earlier wave figures I wanted at TRU due to the sale, but SERIOUSLY, my TRU pretty much only had Storm Shadows and Snake Eyes. They HAD to comprise 85% of what was there. My luck is sucking! I did get a Zartan and a Desert Ambush Scarlett so I wouldn't go entirely empty-handed and the Target had more than 3 of both, so I was able to choose good face paint jobs (important for non helmeted figures)
Might check one other local Target tomorrow, but I guess I'm gonna have to lay off, because my stores just aren't getting the new stuff (or much of it)

 

[Sniper33]

hey buttmunch, was caught up at work late yesterday but got your fig sent out today. Had to use my He-Ro shipper box since it was about the only box I had that was good enough size for it. Should be getting it by Tuesday I would think.

 

[p!tu]

Crimson Vipers weren't actually in the movie (that I noticed) but this is one badass pic, especially considering its a 3.75 inch figure.

I wouldnt mind seeing that made into a 1/6 figure by sideshow.

 

[EVILFACE]

Uggg, that looks nasty.

That's odd. Today I picked up the 25th Anny Crimson Guard & Firefly 5-packs and got a card for them.

hmm, not sure why then. Cause I scanned up a bunch of the 25th items and nothing showed up as promos or anything. Only things that showed up were the ROC things.

I wish those would go clearance already.

Yeah. I thought I'd give it a shot since the sale/promo tags don't specify which G.I. Joe products. There I was all ready to challenge the cashier, but she rang them up and the register chirped after she scanned them reminding her about the gift card. She even told me to ask for it back after I use it since it's a "collector's card" but it's ROC crap so it's dumpster bound after use.

90% of the time TRU clearance sucks ass anyway. They're 3x as much clearanced as you can pick them up from any other retailer for. The DS Maul is clearanced for the same price it was released at and the Millenium Falcon is still $130 despite WallMart having it for $99 and Target for $75 (my TRU wouldn't pricematch the clearanced items ).
