This is a common compliant. It’s not BS; it’s the nature of replenishing merchandise. Take into consideration that most major retail stores have single figures, it’s just not the figures you want.

No need to rattle the saber my friend. Hasbro isn’t keeping Wave 10 from us; the opportunity to purchase Wave 10 from HTS.com proves that. Understand, until inventory levels get low major retailers have no need for surplus merchandise. I know it’s hard to digest but only collectors care about the newly released waves. I can count on ‘no hands’ how many times I’ve came across an employee that knew of any particulars on upcoming waves. Has anyone tried to describe a particular figure you were looking for to an employee…fa-getta-bout-it! Ironically, some employees told me they weren’t going to be caring G.I. Joe anymore? As long as there are figures on the pegs, major retailers could care less. As we burn through the revision cases we will see Wave 10. However, Wave 11 is ready for immediate shipment, it’s very likely that Hasbro has allocated Wave 11 to major retailers before Wave 10 makes a solid appearance. One could argue that the revision cases filled the Wave 10 slot and now we’re on to the next batch aka Wave 11.
My response is from an objective point-of-view and was not in no way directed at Dedboy.
