GI Joe comic 2-packs

Early reports suggest that the GI Joe 25th Anniversary Comic 2-packs have started to appear in Toys R Us stores in the Philadelphia and DC areas, as well as the standard further south and west outlets. While they remain difficult to find locally, and may be similarly frustrating to other collectors out there, here is a bit of surprising and hopefully useful news. It seems that on the Toys R Us website, they have the first wave of the comic 2-packs up for sale! Actually, upon confirming just now, the 'Scarlett and Hawk' pack is already sold out, but the remaining two from the first wave are, as of 9pm Christmas night, available.

Remember, you'll need to also collect points from these 2-packs in order to take advantage of the 'Rescue Doc' mail away offer, so for those MOC collectors out there, this offer certainly has a double edge. On one hand, you'll have to buy doubles of some of the planned 2-packs, in order to collect enough points to rescue Doc, so that increases the monetary commitment to the line. On the other hand, at least then you'll be encouraged to open up these great figures, read the comics and enjoy their many detailed joints and accessories. It's a fine compromise, and we are all looking forward to these sets becoming more widely available!
