It doesn’t matter how many waves we get if Walmart is the exclusive retailer. It might as well be no more figures.

Found my first Scarlett in the wild this weekend. This is now the third retro Scarlett I own - my wife and son each gifted me 1 Scarlett for Christmas. Gotta say, it was pretty cool seeing one on the peg for myself.

So its looking like people who pre-orderd wave 2 actually got them when they were suppose to ship out this time, is that the case with most people this time? As opposed to how much of wave 1 was a mess with the constant cancelled orders and delays...

From what I've seen in person here in Florida......
Some Walmarts have clearanced the HISS Tanks but not the Strikers, some have clearanced Strikers but not HISS tanks, some have clearanced both, and some haven't clearanced either one. LOL, good 'ol Walmart. That said, I did scoop up several AWE Strikers for $17/each. Despite how frustrating Walmart can be, I've found much much more Toys at Walmart (both online AND in person), than I have at Target. So props to the Walmarts down here for actually getting product in. Also, I think their sporadic/unpredictable stocking times has been a good deterrent of fulltime scalpers. At Target they can just wait at the doors at 8:00 AM each morning, but at Walmart, that likely won't do them any good.

Distribution seems to be improved, at least in my neck of the woods. I've seen a decent amount of wave 2 at this point, including 3 Scarlett sightings.
I also received my preordered Scarlett and Roadblock on time, both packages in perfect condition. It seems like things are improving... other than o-face Duke still being a thing. |

My personal experience is that wave 2 was better than wave 1 in terms of shipping on time.

I’ve seen some pictures on FB of the Fang showing up.
I’ll be picking up one of these to keep displayed in the box.

Link to a toy video
https://youtu.be/O_crrFwA9kQ Informative video about why toys can be hard to find. It's focused on the 6" line but relevant to retro as well.
