I think the retro Indy figures are general release with no pre-orders, and Target is just the first to get them out.
I'd like to see BF2000 in classified, but with lots of redesign to make them cooler than their ARAH versions.

Yes. The more out-there the designs, the better.

I like the BATS from sigma 6 does that count as "out there"? Lol. I'm not familiar with the battle force 2000 stuff aside from.3d printed heads I've seen recently.

With Hasbro turning the screws on European toy sellers is there anywhere US collectors can buy from to get this next wave earlier than September? I'll pay a premium, but not the eBay premium to get things early.

I don't see how Wave 12 is not going to be out until September. They've previously said that we should expect four waves this year - with five figures per wave. Looking at the numbering system for the figures, I can't understand why we are in such a mis-timed release schedule. What is coming / When is it coming.
What figures are in which waves? Are Target Exclusives and Walmart Exclusives considered part of the 'waves'? It seems like we should be getting a ton more figures that we are 'officially' being told about. 2023 WAVE ONE / WAVE ELEVEN (DUE SPRING 2023) #58 Marauders Barbecue #59 Cover Girl #60 Crimson BAT #61 Kamakura (released Oct. 2022) #62 Bazooka (regular colors) #63 Outback #64 Falcon #65 Arctic BAT ??? (speculation) #66 Python Patrol Crimson Guard ...... (leaked online 01-19-23) 2023 WAVE TWO / WAVE TWELVE (not due until SEPT 2023?) - #67 Snow Job - #68 Cobra Valkyries - #69 (unknown as of yet) - #70 Shipwreck - #71 Rock n Roll - #72 Copperhead - #73 Torpedo - #74 Scrap Iron w Drone - #75 (unknown as of yet) - #76 Range Viper - #77 Big Ben * edit - I guess this IS 20 figures... which is 4 x 5. So, technically - it could be four waves of five figures. Maybe this is all we're getting until 2024? Last edited by captain mal; 03-19-2023 at 02:40 PM.. |

I've never liked Battleforce 2000, but I'm sure Classified would do them justice and I would still buy them. However, if they never get made (along with DEF and Star Brigade), I wouldn't care.

May want to start referring to them as Battleforce 3000.

There's going to be a wave in June and probably a wave at PulseCon in the fall. And I think that's it for 5+ figure preorders for 2023.

Yes, and that's why I liked them. They were new and different, and they were not repaints. They looked like an advanced experimental weapons group. Far less absurd and out of place in the line than Cobra-La, Raptor, and Crystal Ball from that year, as well as The Fridge for different reasons. As colorful as they were, they were nothing compared to Rapid Fire and the Battle Corps stuff a few years later. Their vehicles sucked though. Nobody is a kid anymore. Let the hate go.
