I wish I did. Back when it first came out with the Reactive Armor Duke, there was a thread where someone identified it. But that's been so long ago, I just don't remember.

Been hittin' all of the K-Marts in the Raleigh area and have yet to see any trace of wave 5.

Target in Knightdale has 4 of the Rescue Mission pack.

I'm at the Charlotte airport now waiting for my flight back to Atlanta. I stopped by the kmart nearby beforehand and found all of the wave 5 figures and a PP SE with gray timber. I was going to buy more assuming they were mismarked at 9.89 and not 6.99 so I only picked up the resolute SE leaving a sand viper, PP SE and a pit commando at register 1. The rest of the wave is back on the toy aisle.

I was visiting in the Charlotte area today and stopped by the Toys R Us at Concord Mills. They had about 5 of Bench Press and 7 snow serpents. Picked up one Bench Press and left the rest behind. If you go be sure to check behind the other ROC figures, that's where they all were.

Brand new Wal-Mart in Apex opened today, had all the two packs as well as Wave 3 and 4 on the pegs. I bought a white coat Dr. which I hadn't seen yet and Night Adder/Kamakura/Arctic Assault SE.

Hit Cary TRU yesterday and found 0 Snow Serpent or Bench Press. They still don't have the TIE Interceptor either. It's amazing to me how I visited the TRU in Winston-Salem this past weekend and dropped almost $100 on brand new items which I really wanted, and the Cary store has none of the same things. Isn't that store long overdue for a facelift? The one in Greenville got one years ago.

I've also been continuing to visit K-Marts in the area and have yet to see any sign of wave 5. The one on Western had a grand total of 5 wave 1 figures, but the one in Garner actually had a Pit Commando and a Para-Viper.

Anybody looking for a white coat Rex? I found one this afternoon.

[Zubaslava]

Part of the problem is that for years that TRU has had collectors/scalpers working at the store. Most of the "hot" items don't even make it to the floor.

Here's a thread identifying the real world weapons the toys are based on:
