Same here, I pre-ordered everything the day it went up, but when I checked with them about wave 2 a week or so ago, they sent me back an email basically saying they had no control over when they received shipments, and that they received no notification from Hasbro as to when things were being shipped?
Another weird thing about the distribution of this line is that back in mid July the first place I saw wave 1 was at a TRU in SC. I also found some later that day at a TRU in GA. I figured that since this was a special line, and there had not been any 3 3/4 Joes out for some time maybe TRU would be one of the big retailers stocking them. Since that time I have not seen any at a TRU. Actually I have seen a few 5 packs, I can't tell if they are shelf warmers or new shipments, but no new carded figures. A guy who works at my local TRU is kind of in the know but not a collector. Today I stopped in for the first time in a month or so, he told me that they had not gotten any 25th stuff in since this summer, and that the distribution warehouse for this area told him that they did not have any. I have noticed at several TRU's they have minimized their Joe section to almost nothing, and don't have any pegs for 25th single cards (but tons of other military toys). I thought it was strange that they announced two TRU exclusives for 2008 when the company does not seem to be really supporting the line?
