Well after reading about a sighting of Wave 5 Joes at Walmart I decided to take a look for myself at my local Walmart. I was lucky enough to come across 2 lonely figs. Crimson Guard (YAY!!!!) and Sgt. Flash.
HOWEVER!!!! Much to my dismay they have butchered the cards for the figs to be released in Canada. I could describe them to you, but as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words...... |

I would pick them up to open but not to keep MOSC.

I can't believe they didn't even do something like put a generic picture of Snake Eyes, Duke or Cobra Commander on the cards (like how the Star Wars 30th line has Darth Vader on all the cards in canada, iirc).
those are just embarrassing. On the other hand, i still haven't seen wave 5 :( heh, and those name stickers are dead sexy ;)

Did they do that for previous waves? I would LOVE to get Zartan on a card like that.

If you look at the card back the "other figures" images start at wave 5. |

Wow, that's pretty lame of Hasbro to do that. Any body know (or guess) as to why they do the cards like that?
