It’s officially 2013…G.I. Joe product hitting hot and heavy – UPDATED WITH KRE-O!
It seems like it’s been a long time since new G.I. Joe product has been spotted at normal retail outlets, but from the looks of things, they’re making up for lost time! All at once, various different G.I. Joe products are starting to hit retail chains across the country.
G.I. Joe: Retaliation Waves 2 & 3
Over on The Terror Drome, gijoefrank has posted photographic proof finding these figures at his local Target. Over on HissTank reports of Wave 3 also being spotted at Target, and even K-Mart!
G.I. Joe Micro Force “Starter” Pack
Perhaps these have been mentioned somewhere, but I didn’t notice. There is apparently a MicroForce “Starter Pack” featuring some Micro figures on an interesting packaging. The below image was sent from Gary “cmdrinchief”.
EDIT
G.I. Joe Kre-O
I’ll blame my 48 hour flu with the fact that I missed an update from Now Back to G.I. Joe on Twitter saying that he found G.I. Joe Kre-O at his local Toys “R” Us! He also, very awesomely, took some great pictures of some of the mini figures via his Instagram account. I hate to say it, but those little guys are growing on me. Check out the mirrored images below, and be sure to follow Now Back to G.I. Joe to see more of the great stuff he posts.
