It's ok, a friend just Txt'd me that he found a Clu Cycle on his way back from work. I've been through every store within 45 mins of the house looking, they just dried up for some reason.
Castor isn't out yet. SpinMaster held him back for a later release, no reason given although it was heavily suggested there was a production error. He'll probably make Wave 3 in March which should also have Evolution game characters.

I think the 7" line is pretty much over with the 4 figures. Nothing has been sent out for March nor more vehicles at the moment. If the Target sales do good numbers, I can see the third Wave of vehicles coming. Possibly Clu's Light Jet, Clu's Sentry's Light Cycle, and the Black Classic Light Cycle seen on Sam's shelf.
Diecast Series 3 should make it out at some point. I'm hoping for the Light Tanks like the UK Disney Store Exclusive set has (a Recognizer, Light Tanks, Light Cycles, Light Planes, and Light Runner.)

Moat of them have been wiped out.. on occasion you can still find a few ace's or TB's.. the Sandstorm/ram and Twin Gun/range vipers were wiped out almost immediately. Thanks to a few people on here I may end up with one. LOL
I didn't see any Sand Serpents while I was out today. Stopped off at several Ross stores.. only saw a few Rage's, one Black Hiss, and 2 Vamps. Wv3.. One Ace. LOL

Because they are not ordering these items at full wholesale, they are taking them at a lot price from Hasbro directly so they have no say in how many units they are getting total except for the lot number. Also, they are cancelled at retail, so they get what they get with no re-orders.

So, there is possibly more of these just sitting around in a warehouse somewhere because there are no re-orders? Wow....common sense does not exist with these people!

No.. what he was trying to say is that since the items were canceled, Hasbro decided to clean out the warehouse that they were in to discount retail stores. in doing so the company that bought said item got whatever they paid for and nothing more. So if say Ross bought 100 units.. and these 100 units were cases. Then from the main distribution center those 100 cases were split up among all of their stores, giving more cases to the bigger and busier stores and possibly none to the real slow stores. Then after those cases are sold, there is no more to be bought and no more to be restocked.
This is why there is such a fanatic buzz when Ross or any of the other discount stores get these items.. they know they will be gone and may not have a chance to get them.. so as soon as they hit here, they are off to snag as many as they can afford. Some of them for their actual collections.. others cause they want to turn a profit. Welcome to supply and demand at it's finest. LOL

Oh well....
Thanks for the info, guys. If anyone sees that Double barrel cannon, let me know. And I'll buy it off you if you pick it up for me.
