Why No Wave 2- 08 Cardback Images?

Do you think the recent Wave2/08 (Torpedo, Rock n Roll, et. al.) cardback images were omitted from HissTank's recent update because Hasbro doesn't want to show off the next lineup of figures? To me that makes little sense since the fan community already knows at least two of the figures in that Wave. Just curious what others may speculate on that topic.

They haven't been releasing press images of the card backs for awhile and I think the "preview" shadows are now out (if Wave 4/5 are any indication). I don't think there's any more to it than that..???

I don't think they usually post images of the cardbacks. Although it would be convenient.

My apologies. It's sometimes difficult to tell where to post various items, but this helped straighten me out.

No worries, you're not the only one.
