i have read sightings of him being out in a new assortment. but then bbts removed him from a case being sent out. was he being shipped out and replaced with snake eyes or are they both being shipped out at the same time?

I have only seen the "new" wave 2 at 1 location in my area.
There was about 3 or 4 of every character, but not 1 flint. I took a SE,SS camo, and a lady jaye. I don't think Flint was rereleased. |

He was initially supposed to be released with a new case assortment, but was removed from that case and replaced with Snake Eyes. This would have been the Flint with Duke arms. I don't know if we will see any more Flints or not, which is strange to me given how popular he is. Maybe Hasbro doesn't want to flood the market with Flints given that Tiger Force Flint is coming out soon.
(btw, Flint was re-released with a wave 3 assortment earlier this year, but that was it) |

Put the blame where it's due - Hasbro removed him from the case, not BBTS. They just get the S*** job of telling everyone about it...

People claim to have seen him at retail lately but I live in the East Coast and have yet to see him again!

I saw the filler wave at WM, that was to have Flint in it, but never saw Flint, but every other fig in that case was there, so it leaves me to believe he was in that case. Plus there reports of people finding him at Target when the exclusives started hitting.

I agree with karamazov80. I think they converted all Flints to the Tiger Force and that is why v1 will no longer be released. I was hoping they would re-tool him and release him like v2 SE. Maybe that would be a great comic two pack, a re-tooled v1 Flint with gloves and packed with Lady Jaye (the second version coming out with DVD boxed set). That way I wouldn't have to buy the boxed set just to get that Lady Jaye since I already have the dvd anyway.
