The I need Wave 4 and 5 thread.

[Tennyson]

I am trying to figure out how many of us still haven't found wave 4 & 5 yet. Simply reply, "I need them."
I know I need them!

[mister_e]

I need them. To be honest though, I haven't gone hunting once this week due to the holidays. I will begin my regular hunting routine on this coming Monday. Maybe I'll get lucky (crosses fingers)

[Shogi]

I need wave 5 (I haven't seen wave 4 around me though)

[Clutch]

I've seen wave 4 once, and that was only 4/5 figures. It was at an obscure store that someone else PM'd me about. Still never seen wave 5 on any shelf. I've been hunting on a pretty regular basis. Finally seen my first comic packs tonight.

So to answer the question, I need 1 of wave 4 and all of wave 5 still.

[Irid70]

wellll...ToyWiz, if you trust 'em, seems to have Wave 5 in stock. Not listed as a pre-order.

I gave it a shot. Let you know how it turns out.

[Gulfster]

I Need Wave 5!!!!!!!!!!!!

[The Commander]

I need them.

[Derek2783]

I need them.

Wave 5, that is.

Can I just say I love this thread?

[CelticViking]

They'll be out in full force in the next month IMO. I would guess that Targets will start putting them out after their reset.

[Phorpus]

Still need a few of Wave 4 and 5.

Specifically Storm Shadow, Destro, CGs, and IG Destro.

[jignacio_2k]

I Need Wave 5!!

[seppaku]

I NEED EM!! em/cries

[SHIPWRECK"N"POLLY]

Got wave 4 and 5 before christmas at walmart including 14 crimson guards. I know i was just very lucky.

[CobraSaboteur]

I still need wave 4 Destro and all of Wave 5. Going hunting tomorrow!!!!!! Who's with me?!

[Cobra Commander]

I just ordered wave 4 from BBTS, they should arrive in a week or two. I still need wave 5.

[heatviper]

I don't need them but I sure do want them!!

[Shin-Gouki]

Saw and got Wave 5 once, Seen wave 4 twice but the second time was at jacked up prices ($6.99 each)

[kilowatt]

Why hasn't Wal-mart started to restock Joes yet?

[Magick]

Have wave 5.. passed up on wave 4. although I somehow picked up a wave 4 Destro in my buying frenzy. So i have one to trade off.

I am completely caught up except for the wave 2 comic packs.



Every wal mart around here has totally removed all 25th anniv. figured from their alignment. I haven't seen anything since christmas eve. Target has been my lucky spot.

[swafus]

I need both! Haven't seen them in stores at all!!

[A.V.A.C.]

got flash, need the rest of wave 5. i want a cg, no matter what color they are and i want more than 14.

[lookinglasself]

As much gas as I've been wasting looking for 25th's, I would REALLY like to find Wave 5 soon. I've been hunting 3 or 4 days out of the week for the last 3 weeks or so. I saw Wave 4 once (minus SS), and bought Duke and Destro. Just found the Wave 1 Comic Packs at Target, so I'll be checking there over the next few days as they have already done their reset. Here's to hoping they show up soon for the people who have not found them yet.

[Onslaught Six]

I need them. Specifically a CG or two, and Flash and, uh. Oh, Snake Eyes. And maybe Destro, I guess. Snow Job is 'Snow Job' and stuff.

[Wyo]

My brother and I both need wave 4 and 5. We can find wave 2 & 3 all day...:(

[Xerofall]

I just need wave 4, Duke, Air Trooper, Gung-ho, Storm Shadow and now Cobra Commander. :(

I'd like to get another IG Destro, Snow Job to display and a third Flash so I can make a custom Grand Slam.

[john shaft]

Hi all...I am new to hisstank.com but I have been checking this site out for several weeks now.
I was lucky enough to hit my local Wal-Mart a few weeks back and they had one of each of wave 5 (except for Destro and they had two CG's). I grabbed all except for the extra CG (which I should have!) and they had one wave 4 CC which I promptly grabbed as well. That was my first ever purchase of the 25th line and I wish I would have started collecting these as soon as they came out. I was learly about the quality and tried reading every review I could. Now I think I have missed out on Cobra Officer and Flint. Oh well...

[the_loud_master]

I need 'em both. Well not necessarialy need but more want.

[d3troit]

i need wave five.

[xFlintx]

I need both waves still...

[The Commander]

Why are the people that have them responding to this thread?

[Blowtorch]

wellll...ToyWiz, if you trust 'em, seems to have Wave 5 in stock. Not listed as a pre-order.

I gave it a shot. Let you know how it turns out.

Wish I had seen you post this sooner. ToyWiz are con artist. I had order a Marvel Legends showdown Spiderman with spider sense. A week after I placed the order they cancealed it stating it was "Out of stock" only to have it listed again at twice what I was orginally going to pay. When I called them they said "you can place your order again" So I told them where to go and went to ebay.

Oh and BTW I need wave 4 & 5 except for Flash (got him from evilbay) and all comic packs.

[Stygian]

I don't need either Wave thankfully, but wanted to echo the general concern about both Waves having completely dried up- at least in my area of AZ.

Eh, if the cancel my order I've lost nothing, if they don't ship it soon I'll cancel it. We'll see what happens. I figure they've got to show up in retail/online EVENTUALLY so I lose nothing by trying this.

[yoyoyojoe]

Got wave 4 and 5 before christmas at walmart including 14 crimson guards. I know i was just very lucky.

14 crimson guards!? How about leave some for other joe hunters? I need both wave 4 and 5 and I ONLY need 3 CGs, that's all I want.

[Compulsive Collector]

I don't need either Wave thankfully, but wanted to echo the general concern about both Waves having completely dried up- at least in my area of AZ. Waves 4 and 5 are nowhere to be found right now. When they start shipping again, we'll see reports online. The only new releases anyone should expect to see in stores right now are comic packs.

14 crimson guards!? How about leave some for other joe hunters? I need both wave 4 and 5 and I ONLY need 3 CGs, that's all I want. So you should get there first.

[NeilJam]

Still looking for Wave 5 here. I want to get 2 Destros and about 6 CGs if I can find them.

Not really concerned with Wave 4 since I think I can still get the Joe 5 pack. Was just thinking of getting a couple of the Air Troopers if I see them.

[CaptainDinobot]

Found wave 4 but I have no plan to buy them since I have them from the 5-packs, no sign of wave 5 yet...

[atomicpower]

i need snowjob and as many cgs as i can afford. didn't need any of wave 4, saw them twice, and wave 5, when i saw, i bought. 1 flash and 2 cgs.

[Compulsive Collector]

Waves 4 and 5 are nowhere to be found right now. When they start shipping again, we'll see reports online. For those who still need wave 1 2008 (wave 5), or at least need more Crimson Guard figures, are you keeping score?

Well today i went to my local super walmart looking for some new joes but to not luck and noticing they had absolutely no tags for em so i walk off and notice that inside the model car/spary paint glass case are a full two sets of wave 5 and wave 2 comic packs. So i look for someone who works their and ask him to get the figures out. I ask him why they are in the glass cases and he said that these figures in particular have been getting stolen out of the packaging and the torn open packages were always left behind so they got tired of it and put them behind glass.Has anyone else have this happen at their walmart?? That would be the first sighting of a full set, never mind two, at Wal-Mart in 2008.

My brother and I finally got wave 5 today at a San Diego Target. He found a entire case hanging on the pegs. We split them up and since there were two CGs, we each got one. Pretty stoked because we havent seen Wave 4 or 5 until today. And that would be the first sighting of wave 1 2008 (wave 5) in a Target store at all. Obviously, with their DPCI numbers, it could be a misguided return, but that hardly seems realistic.

That doesn't mean everyone should run out to search for them tonight. I'm looking at you, east coast people. There are still currently fewer than ten auctions for 25th Crimson Guard figures on eBay. I do, however, see an auction for five CG figures in Vancouver, WA that was listed yesterday and an auction for eight CG figures in Daly City, California that was listed yesterday. Is a second shipment of this wave hitting the west coast?

If you guys notice sightings posted online, on this site or others, maybe you could point them out on this thread to help give others an idea of when to expect them in their areas. Also, if you happen to find them yourself, please give us an idea of the location in which you got lucky.

[Irid70]

BTW, Toywiz did not let me down. Got my Wave 5 from them via UPS this morning.

[darthZartan]

I need both wave 4 and 5. I look 3-4 times a week at multiple Target stores. San jose,Ca.
