For anyone in CO looking for Joes, I just wanted to let you know that I have found Wave 13 at both the Aurora and Glendale Targets, and neither of them ever got Wave 12 in (nor 10, but they both had 11). I do not understand this shipping schedule, but whatever.

To tell you the truth I don't even want to see W12. Is too craptastic and I may go blind looking at it.

It actually makes sense with how quickly these last 4 waves came out. I can't imagine a store ordering brand new waves every month.

Didn't a similar thing happen when Wave 4 hit? Some stores got it, many didn't?

The stores don't necessarily order new figures when Hasbro releases a new wave. The stores order new cases when the pegs are near-empty and there's none out back. So if a wave, say wave 10, is selling slow, the next time they order "new joes" the latest offering from Hasbro may be wave 12.

Either way, you would think Hasbro would have made sure that everyone has a chance to get their figures. They are starting to get as bad as Mattel, whose DCU line is next to impossible to find (still trying to figure out when Walmarts are going to start carrying the exclusive wave).

Targets around here have only been stocking wave 10. Just picked up another Para-Viper and Bazooka Trooper this week. I'd like to see wave 11 show up, so I can pick up an Airborne.
From what I've read, he's in the Target cases while Wal-Mart gets the revision with Wraith (which I've found). |
