Do we know yet when the street date will be for the 2nd wave of movie figures?

BBTS lists them for 5/28, so it's possible that etailers will get the jump on wave 2 before Target, TRU, et al.

Kokomo says Mid-June for their Series two pre-orders. Maybe an early surprise from Hasbro? It's happened before.

Wave 2 usually does not have a street date, they will be put out when stores get them and they have shelf space (they will probably still have the 5/28 street date printed on them in the event stores receive them before street date).
Going by prior years, it is entirely possible that wave 2 will be on shelf before the movie, with the etailers getting them before big box retail.

A lot of the times, Wave 2 is also released at the same time as Wave 1 for Hasbro. They both could be in stores right away.

Well I found Wave 1 today at TRU but there was no wave 2, so I'm guessing the answer is soon, maybe really damn soon, but maybe not by May 28th. We shall see.

For the first movie, I recall finding not only wave 2 but wave 3 figures on the day after the street date. Of course, there were loads of wave 1, but there were a couple of cases of 2 & 3.

Being that Retaliation is a Movie-toy line, I am surprised Waves 1 & 2 aren't being released at the same time. E-tailers are showing mid June release.
The real question is, when are Waves 3-5 going up for pre-orders?

EDIT: I see you meant to say aren't being released at the same time so nevermind.
