Were those repaints ever made? I've seen the tiny pics of the two, but I figured they were either photoshopped or mockups at best. I'd love to get my hands on that PP Croc Master

So, somewhere there are supposedly thousands of cases of those waves just waiting to be found. It feels like the Ninja Commandos of '95 all over again. |

Hasbro swears they made them in equal numbers to the regular versions, but "they are lost in a warehouse somewhere, and we don't know where". Really. That's their official statement from Joe Con.

Well, and the other thing is, the last case assortment from the 25th line was (more or less) an army builder case. This one appears to be too, so at least we can all build armies pretty cheaply. I wouldn't mind a few shock troopers, especially at $4-$5 that they would be at Ross/TJX/etc

Didn't Hasbro say at Joecon that the BT and CM repaints were out there somewhere? They'll find these in a warehouse someday and ship them out.

I do inventory control at a warehouse that is 500,000 + sq. ft. It is very common for someone to put a skid up in rack and type the location in by hand. Say they put it in Y02-8372 but they type in Y02-8362 or Y01-8372. In a more extreme case we may have a huge bay location with dozens of skids and someone may go to move it in the computer, but they accidentily move them all. Physically, the skids are still sitting there and people will see the product sitting there and not think anything about it. They could assume it is just slow moving product and can sit there for years unless someone goes and runs a location check to see if the product shows up in the system. I have read about extreme cases in the toy industry of companies renting warehouse space to house product and losing track of it or the wareouse being closed and they discover it later (sometimes 10+ years later) and sell off the old product.

SO, we can assume cases with the BT and CM repaints are sitting next to the crate with The Ark of the Covenant?
