I have been searching for the wave 8 and 9 single carded figures ever since they were released and I have yet to see a single figure anywhere. I am stationed in California and actually went on leave a few weeks ago and traveled home to Washington state. On my way home I traveled through northern California, Oregon, and Washington state. I visited a bunch of Walmarts, Targets, etc and never once saw any single carded wave 8 or 9 figures. They were released, right? I am back in California now and visited three Walmarts and two Targets this morning and did not see any sign of wave 8 or 9. These figures are out in stores, right?

It's good & bad when a wave hits my area. Good as in when a new wave hits, WM and Target get them about the same time, so I'm able to get a complete set, plus extra's(army building, openers, for fellow members,...). But then after that, it's hit & miss on restocks.

Wave 8 hit, then it hit a few more times last month. Now you'll probably only see Cobra Commander left overs though.
So far Wave 9 has only hit once around here and it was in a ratio of 1 case for every 2-3 cases of wave 7 that shipped with it as well. |

In my area, I didn't really see any wave 7 figures except when I bought them.
Wave 8 is all over still. and Wave 9, I'm pretty sure they just shipped out Torpedo and Wild Bill to laugh at me.

I'm starting to wonder myself...........
Did see the Roadblock figure a few times, so I knew they've been around.....I just seem to always miss them I guess. |

Wave 8 and 9 are real, but only for a selected few. I think certain planets have to align first.
Joking aside, I've found all I've wanted from wave 8, and have yet to see a Snow Serpent. Found 1 BAT and would like 2 more... I don't really want to be greedy with the army building. |

I managed to find three cases of wave 9 in one weekend then that was it. I have found 8 several times with probably enough to complete 3 or 4 sets of them if I wanted more. BTW I live in Louisiana and we are slow getting things here.
