I think they really need to rethink the wave after the holidays now that Joe is in the public mind again. Nostalgia will be higher, and those that didn't like the movie might be more willing to buy something with the classic designs now. They were a bit overpriced, but they were a lot of fun. |

Ah, my misunderstanding. I forgot the original subject of this thread was Combat Heroes. I was thinking of the standard Joe line. Of which the 3rd wave is plentiful here. I was going to see if I could be helpful. Unfortunately, I never even saw Wave 2 of the Combat Heroes. But, best of luck to all of you who are looking for them.

Never officially released. If you happen to find them it's pretty much a holy grail item (and an adorable one at that).

Yes, it was only released in Canada. I'm starting to have my doubts about the Walmart exclusive 5-packs ever coming to pass as well... Hopefully (as with Wild Bill) they will at least get "repainted" for the RoC line.

Its sad that the Combat Heroes stopped when they did, as that line had two great army builders - the Viper and CG - as well some great other figures.

If you don't want to believe the numbers that is your problem. These are real numbers and i have no reason to say otherwise. Yes i could get fired for showing actual printouts, i mean i could get in trouble just for saying this stuff.I just post these for those who are interested in the numbers. I find it fun to track. I have been comparing them to the transformers(regular) figures which sold about 11,000 that same week.

Hey, not to be a wet blanket, but is it legal to disclose this kind of information to the general public? I mean, I know Walmart managers that get annoyed and won't answer when I ask them about these things. That would suck if you get fined or whatever for helping us out.
Of course, this kind of info was available to all employees when I was working at Ross, but I was an employee then, I don't know, just wondering lol Edit: Just read the post above, lol! Keep on stickin' it to the man! :P |

If these details are really 100% accurate and he is affraid somone will find out why post it up and cost him his job? Not a smart move in my own opinion. I don't see that he has posted his employee number up soooo.... |

Sweet, got my wave 3 on the way from TTT. I think he's got more up for sale at a VERY reasonable price!

He can actually get in a lot of trouble releasing such information if the company considers it private and confidential, that is why I challenege the litgatimacy of it being really accruate (since internal company printoffs and docuemtns can not be publically released without company consent). Anyone can make stuff up like this, its not that hard.
