So I am on my way to work yesterday and I stop to do my daily pit stops thinking we will have new shit on the shelves/pegs....whatever. I enter with the relief that where I am at we have seen new items on the shelf already (single dreds, new troopers, para-vipers, etc) and then my blood pressure starts to boil. I see what's before me and I start to think: WHY IN THE HELL AM I EVEN DOING THIS ANYMORE????? So what is it I see you are wondering???? A NEW LOAD OF NEW REVISIONS!!!! STORM SHADOW, DESTRO, ROADBLOCK, GUNG-HO!!!!!! ARRRRRRRRRRRGH!
So I imagine I will not be seeing any Resolute Troopers anytime soon in my area......and I have HASBRO's crack smoking marketing team to thank for it probably.

What I need is new stuff on the pegs so I can get some Resolute Troops at a decent price. I refuse to pay 12.99......if I am paying that than I better be getting two Joes.....one carded and one loose......it just makes me mad. I get a glimmer of hope for some new items and then BAM! Back to where you were when you started this mess.....except now I don't need anything cause I have it all already!!!!!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOoooooooo!!!!!

Saw them yesterday too... whatever. A penny ($7) saved is a penny ($7) earned.

Yep - repacks of early wave figures is all we're getting in the Northwest too. I think I've seen all of the wave 4 figures 2-3 times in the past week, along with a few others. It sure is nice of Hasbro to put the old figures on crappy TV show, comic book cardbacks for us... I certainly hope nobody is buying into that and trying to get one of every cardback to try and stay complete.
Message to Hasbro - many of us don't have waves 12 and 13 - maybe not even waves 10 and 11. Can you help us out? |

I am with you brother, I am pretty much done collecting, I used to enjoy it but not so much anymore. I hope the movie sparks my interest again.

Destro - Im waiting for my supplier to ship my cases in - but hit my site up.. charging as close to retail as I possibly can on the figures.. without loosing my shirt.. without knowing my shipping cost on these yet.. I cant really tell what Im going to have to charge - but I will tell you this.. if you preorder them now (pay with credit card you wont be charged till they ship).. you will lock in the current price. I had to bump my neca prices up a little but Im still $2 cheaper then big bad and entertainment earth.. take a look.. you might find something you like.. - Im only bringing in 5 cases of wave 13 right now and 2 are being sold as full cases.. so I only have 3 of each figure availible for wave 13.. |

There's nothing that catches my interest in the 25th line right now. I've turned my attention back to the original '82-'89 line.

Odd, I encountered W12 and 13 before I saw W11 with all the figs from W4. Give it time you'll get what you want.

Thank God for the Tank to let a collector/buyer vent!
Dealer Destro I am right there with you. I get frustrated so much by this line. Here is my problem. I check a store 5 days in a row and nothing new is out. I skip a day and go the next. What do I find? The one day I skipped they got new stuff in and all that is left is the crappy leftovers! Now mind you I have everything I want up through W13 except some extra cobra unit figures. But that is the result of countless searches at home and away, many of which resulted in a big goose egg of a find. Now with the re-release of W4, I am guessing more frustration is on the way! Feel better . . . now . . . AhhhhhhhhHH! |
