G.I. Joe as Indiana Jones question

Does anyone know if the G.I. Joe as Indiana Jones Disney exclusive is available at the gift shops for the Indiana Jones Disney attractions? I know the figure was made for the G.I. Joe convention last year but I'm not sure if it was stocked in the gift stores like the smaller action figures.

Yes. There is a white one and a black one. A friend of mine is going to DisneyWorld and I'm going to have him pick me up Wave 2 of the Indy figures so I don't have to pay the eBay prices. I'd have him pick up the G.I. Joe figures if they're available. I can't find any info about it online how much it it actually retails for. I find them on online toy stores but I'm sure the $50 price tag isn't the price in the Disney gift stores if they are there.

They do still sell the GI JOE figures yes. At Disneyland in CA, they only sell the white (regular) version, but in DIsneyworld, they sell the Asian, White, and African American versions.

An Asian one? I didn't know that one existed. Do you know what the retail price is for those at the store?

It's not a great figure. It is not articulated or anything. You should just by one from Sovereign Studios( link at "Figures" Thread)

But the Disney figure is an "official" figure. I don't think Sovereign is licensed.

Yeah but neither is the Akubra Federation hat or the AdvtureBilt or the Miller one but they're better than the licensed one.

I was in both Disneyworld and Disneyland within the last couple of months. One was vacation the other I have family in the area. I was looking for the Indy figures at both, and they only had the GI Joe figures in the Indy shops in both places. I remember the black Indy from both, but can't remember if the white Indy was in both or not. I don't remember the Asian looking Indy at all. I didn't want to spend that much money on them anyway as I didn't like the way they looked.

I spent a lot of time looking at Disneyland for Indy stuff, the only place I could find it was in the Indy shop, and even for that when I was there, in Late Feburary, it was closed and I had to ask to get in. There was, as of January, a much greater selection on Indy figures in Disneyworld.

They made Mulder and Scully barbie and Ken.
They also made Kirk and Uhura Barbie and Ken.

How about an Indy and Marion.
Although Barbie is more cut out for Willie.

Well a co-worker of mine went to Disney World and got me the Series 2 action figures, minus the German soldier and German mechanic since they were out of them. He did confirm that the G.I. Joe as Indiana Jones is available for sale in the Indiana Jones gift shop there and it is $40.

I just came back from Disneyland and they do have about 10 of the GI Joe figures left. They are all the white figures. I ended up picking one up, though it got a bit shashed on the flight back.

They also had the following, a series two Indy, a number of them actually, and no other figures. There was also the smaller Indy figures, I think they call them the motorcycle figures.

Plus they had the hats, jackets, a number of t-shirts, a whip, glasses, mugs, and a few of the 10th anniversery ride items, mostly the frame.

I wanted a jacket, but I didn't think they looked all that great, and they cost $300. I've already got a leather jacket that looks at at least a bit better, and it has traveled the world.

I'm not so sure how much they like the store though because it never seems to be open. I've been out there twice now, I have family that lives out there, and both times it has been closed and I had to ask to get in.

If it's not opened then ask at the store that it's connected to. Both times I've asked they let me in. They did open it up this last time after noon, but my cousin works there and I wanted a discount.
