    Default Target 30% of GI Joe 10th of September

    Just spotted in a coworkers Target catalogue,Target has 30% of all GI Joe this week starting on Thursday 10th on September.

    That's what I call a decent discount, I may actualy get some vehicles now. The Target Exclusives particularly should actualy be affordable now.

    I hope the line continues here though, and that they are just scaling back to a stock level more comparable to Marvel Universe etc. Or better yet maybe they will sell well and finally restock with wave 3, while the sale is still own preferably (wishfull thinking, I know ).

    Excellent. The Steel Crusher APV is actually tempting at a reduced price.
    If I want your opinion, I'll give it to you

    My sales thread: Linky

    I might go for the vehicles as well. I am waiting for them to go on clearance actually but 30% off is very nice

    It makes a significant psychological difference cause it's not $30, and somehow feels less expensive. It's stupid but it's human nature.

    In any case I think I only really want the Snake Eyes Bike from the Target Exclusives, and seeing as how I was still umming and ahhing about the whole line when the last sale was on, for me they do feel affordable now.

    Me to, before we were only one wave behind the US, but were edging toward 2.

    I dunno, I picked up the Snake Eyes w/ bike when it was $30... I really like the figure, but it seems like it's not really worth the pricetag. You can get the package, less the bike and the stand, from ebay (chinese seller) for around $15 with free postage.

    I kinda like the bike, or at least the idea of ninja bikers, however we'll see if I actualy buy it. I need another look at the thing, not to mention all the vehicles before I decide I want any. You've certainly given me pause for thought about it.

    Although I don't have that specific Snake Eyes head, I have more than enough Snake Eyes figures, and as I got into GI Joe in the late 80's my favourte has always been version 3 rather than the visored v2, so I'd have to want both SE and the Bike to justify getting it.

    When Target had it's sale the exclusives were $30 (25% off) they didn't seem to fly off the shelves. I doubt the extra $2 off would make much difference.
