After counting and tallying carefully, the volume of figures presently on the pegs amounts to 4 CASES OF WAVE 3 having been stocked. 7 Techno-Vipers, multiple Renegades troopers, and multiples of all of the joes.... and naturally, every single Storm Shadow was gone. There were easily 40+ figures there. Peculiarly, there were no Hazard Vipers or Blueshirts present though, who are typically hints that it's definitely wave 3, but how else would all of these have gotten there?
Wish I'd hit it on Friday or Saturday instead. If anyone is grabbing these figures, could they just speak up? I'd feel better knowing that at least one of us got a hold of them.
I tried to get all of the figures in the photo but there is at least another peg full below this, all the same stuff.
Oh man, I haven't posted in a while, yarrrgh *stretches*
All it takes is one customer to buy 4 of the same figure. That really makes anyone's chances of finding this guy a real pain. Even worse if the same customer gets all the others at all the other stores, be it by sheer chance or having the ability to get them before the wave even gets stocked.
Basically, Hasbro *might* have underestimated this particular figure's demand and now all those who demand it are at the mercy of all those who $upply it.
Honestly, with the rampart reuse of 30th Storm Shadow parts in the Retaliation line, I'm not too upset if I don't get one (I think the oncoming flood of ninjas is going to be great) but it would be nice to find a couple for myself and my friends who don't have time to search around for one. POC wave 3 Snake Eyes sure is ronery.
Who knows, maybe the discount retailers will get in POC figures and then 30th figures like they did with 25th and ROC? I've sure noticed a recent trend with online retailers getting in more POC figures again, especially figures from waves 3 & 4. I myself would love to finally see (and own) the POC Python Patrol Croc Master and Concept colors Blowtorch if that is ever possible.
