I'm very excited. I've gotten everything that I want from wave 1. Now the wait begins AGAIN.
You can blame me for that missing CC... I haven't been able to post for a few days, but on Thursday I was out hunting following OSOK's good luck around Lansing.... Stopped at the Okemos Target. It was... interesting... They were stocking that section, and in addition to everything new in TFs being fully stocked (seriously, you name it, it was there) the POC Mechs & Alphas were there, but no figures- only empty pegs for them. I figured somebody just beat me to them. Hopped over to the TRU across the street and BAM! A full case of POC figures. Bought one of each, left the duplicates. No Spirit or Quick Kick though...
Decided to go back to Target and get another TF Scout, and amazingly they had JUST put out the POC figures! Kinda kicked myself for spending the higher price at TRU, but what incredible timing! Instead of the scout I grabbed the CC to have one MOC and open the first. So, sorry you missed out on CC, but know it's in good hands and not some reseller's...
On the bright side... holy f... I haven't bought a full wave of Joes in what seems like years, and it felt awesome. As I understand it, POC is getting full retail release like ROC and not limited numbers like the collector-focused 25th line. I'm very optimistic about Joe hunting in the POC line... As any TF collector can tell you, it's nice to have a line that's kid-targeted and carried in full at retail. Instead of hunting for scraps, I hope toy stores will carry POC like Iron Mans, Marvel Universe, TFs, etc and we'll be getting these much easier than with 25ths.
Good luck hunting boys!
