I agree with the WTF's. Imagine my shock. I wasn't expecting to find anything especially not wave 5. I thought a longshot was wave 4. Went ahead and looked anyways. All 3 had 3-4 pallets of toys. Sitting right on top was Wave 5 (No revision, I don't think). I then later found Wv 5 R1.
I ended up grabbing an extra City Strike Snake Eyes hoping to trade for a Kamakura. So, if anyone finds an extra Kamakura, let me know. When I saw all the stuff, I thought for sure that they would have the exclusive battle stations, but not yet. The best part was that they were $5 at all of the stores. Maybe a push to go with the DVD? The CS SE is easily the best fig, but the Jungle Rip and Desert Viper are really great as well. I couldn't talk myself into the Artic Threat SS. I don't know what they were thinking, but damn, that is one ugly figure. For those that need to know, the SE is one per case in both revisions that I found. |

Found a Wv 5 Rev 1, but only at one stop among 6 stores. So City Strike SE and a Red Fang are finally in my collection along with an extra Rex for Psycho Mantis. Still need Kamakura, 2 Nano Vipers, 2 Desert Vipers, and City Strike Duke.
What's in Wv 3 Rev 4? It was the only other box there, but she wouldn't open it for the shelf after I only picked up 3 figures from the first box. Couldn't see which collection it belonged to.

I opened 1 case of wave 3 R4 and I think it was Pit Commando, Hawk, Flash, Crimson Neo, Helix, PP SE and a couple wave1-2. Nothing special. That's funny that she woudnt open it. I encountered one guy who tried to give me flak for opening a case. He said that I wasn't supposed to. I just said ok and kept looking through the case. Since when does WM care that we are buying their product? That's the first time I've encountered someone who was rude about it. That's why I'd rather shop Target.

I decided to visit a couple Wal Marts this morning, and the one at SC and 75 had some Wave 4 and 5 out. I bought City Strike Snake Eyes, Arctic Threat Storm Shadow, Charbroil, Red Fang Ninja, and Night Adder. Still looking for Jungle Rip and Kamakura. They only had singles of each so they are back to having just Waves 1-3.

Store policy. You're not allowed to touch/restock the freight for safety/lawsuit reasons and to prevent people from getting the hottest items (movies before their release, hot game consoles everyone is scalping on eBay, etc) before the public has a chance. Depending on the employee, you will get anything from some flak to being bounced out of the store.

No, you're not. The public is considered standard hours (10am to 9pm) when most people would be up and shopping while only minor stocking might be done. To be there during the overnight stocking hours, you become a possible scalper/thief that they are trying to stop. It's a f**king retarded & fairly evil company since Sam Walton died, but we all knew that.
Didn't see any Jungle Ripcords. Hell, I didn't see any Wv4/5 period anywhere. Picked up 2 Joe Commandos for parts, but that's it.

Just found CS Snake Eyes and Red Fang in Hurst. Left Charbroil and Night Adder, but that's all I saw of this wave. Was really wanting a CS Duke
