Has anyone seen wave 9 in the Iowa City/Cedar Rapids area? I've checked Wal-Mart, Target, etc. and all I have been finding (much like the rest of you) are old comic packs and some wave 8 CC w/mass device figs warming the pegs.
I was in Dubuque for a family thing last weekend and the Wal-Mart there was overloaded with wave 4 figs (at least six of each individual fig), but nothing else. Apparently they have been sitting there for quite a while. |

Welcome Ice Viper - no reports of Wave 9 in the corridor. Very little of Wave 8. I and my 2 sons collect and between us we only have 1 full set of wave 8...

Thanks for the welcome. I was lucky enough to go to a Wal-Mart right after they stocked up wave 8 about three weeks ago. Haven't seen much since, though.

well...we should have the DSM area pretty well covered with you, me and good ol' bendcoot...
I'm sure everyone is looking for wave 9 now. Is anyone looking for anything else? I've only been finding peg warmers for the most part on the west side...maybe a couple vipers, wv7 SE and Duke Jetpacks. ...Thanks to bendcoot and my BBTS order FINALLY coming through, I'm sitting pretty good...still looking for Comic Pack Wave 4 (Shippy and Copperhead)...if anyone spots one (or two for that matter)...shoot me a line. |

Even though I'm not able to keep collecting, I've been trying to keep my eyes open all over the place for those pesky wave 8, 9 and wave 4 comic packs. I have not seen anything new in over a month. I'm beginning to wonder if Des Moines has fallen off the Hasbro radar.
I'm sure that we will get all the figures we want twelve days from never . . .errrrr . . . real soon. Come on Hasbro, "Step your game up!"

I picked up some wave 9 at Target in Cedar Rapids earlier today. I was able to get Hawk, Barbecue, Bazooka and the Lt. Torpedo re-issue; someone got to the B.A.T.S and Snow Serpents before I did, though.
Also checked out WM and TRU, but there was nothing but wave 7 at WM and Buzzer and Serpentor peg warmers at TRU. Still no wave 4 comic packs. Also, the figs at Target were still 6.88. If they are changing the price to 7.99, at least it hasn't happened in CR/IC yet. |
