I've yet to see the Hoth Rebel Trooper in stores. But I'm not looking too hard, because I have the old release of that figure and none of the others interest me at $13 each.
Snoke. Palpatine had all these dignitaries and things, but they created a scarred kook out of nothing because an evil master is required for something-something-dark-side-something-something. |

Why wasn't the Praetorian in this assortment? Hasbro has already fucked it up. Let's call it what it is

Praetorian Guard isn't in the case because Hasbro lives in a magical land where Wal-Mart actually stocked their exclusives everywhere and in sufficient numbers, so there was no need to ship them on VOTC. (Same magical land where Jyn and Rey didn't get cleared out at $5 or less after.)
Also, you can't win with 6 different figures in an 8 figure case. What happened to 12 figure cases? If they packed Snoke one per case, then folks would be trying to scalp him. But if you had short pack anyone, then it should've been: 2 Snoke 2 Hoth Rebel 2 Praetorian Guard 2 Scarif/Shore Troopers 1 Kylo Ren 1 First Order Stormtrooper 1 Jyn 1 Rey Yeah, why make so many first order Stormtroopers you can get loose on Ebay from China?

I found plenty of Hoth Rebel troopers. I only got one. I assumed he was somewhat different from before. As for the Praetorian I thought they would be coming out in a later wave?

Target, on the other hand, seems to be feast or famine, which is at least better than nothing at all. I actually saw a couple Hoth troopers at one location last weekend, for the first time ever. Apropos of nothing, here's a picture of Bossk on a Hasbro JP T-rex to cheer you guys up. I'd obviously had a few before I set this up.

Some GameStop also have the vintage wave. Seen a few troopers there.
I think we won’t see wave 2 for a long time as there was zero need for another jyn or daisy at all even though they are articulated. |

That’s a pretty good paint, if that’s what the production piece will look like.
