Are stores holding the new waves back for possible release on Tuesday with the DVD? I ask because I just made my rounds and found NOTHING but the same old wave 1,2,and 3...
There must be about 20 figures that are released that I've never seen yet... |

I don't think stores are "holding back" stock intentionally. I think it's more a case of poorly scheduled stocking/re-stocking, at least that's what I suspect is going on in my area.

I have access you 5 different WM back rooms 3 Targets, 1 Kamart, and 2 TRU and there is nothing back there.. If it comes in it goes out... Problem around my area is the old shit is still sitting on the pegs.. Most of my stores have 200+ figs of older waves.. If this happens they don't need any to be ordered till the old ones start selling.. So people need to buy the ones on the pegs before they get new ones in, sad to say but true!!!

Another theory could be that they are sitting on some product till Nov. 1st. (When a few stores are starting sales and such)

Target doesn't ever seen to fill the pegs like WM does. My WM is full all through wave 4, but my Target only has through wave 3 and only restocks 1 case when there are hardly any figures on the pegs. It may be because it took forever get down to the level they're at.
They all have the same DCPI # so there's no telling which figures sell better for them, so they can't know at corp. what is in stores. Maybe they don't want to open many cases in case they need to unload them to Marshalls like the wave 3 dvd packs. (I only say that to put people in a false sense of panic) |

I think nobody is buying any more waves 1,2, and 3. Nothing moves off the shelves, so nothing goes up.

I seriously doubt it. I don't think you'll see anything simply because this line is moving at a snail pace. TRU is your best bet for W4.
