Not sure if this has been addressed before, but I was just on K-Mart's online site and they have listed the four Wave 2 Alphas (Lava Pod, ATV, Sharc, and Desert Rockslide) listed as "in stock" and available to order for $16.99 each.
Has anyone ordered these and actually gotten the advertised product or is this just a chimera? A fantabulation to tease collectors?

They did this before and would just send you any toher vehicle besides the right ones. They would just send someone to the shelf in a store and just pick up any vehicle they pleased. Really messed up.

Yeah, just saw the Volcano Viper @ Kmart thread. What a terrible tease.
Admin can probably close this thread or fold it up onto the above thread.

It's a scam they've been pulling for months now...DO NOT ORDER THEM!! They'll either cancel your order or ship you Wave 1 Alphas instead. This has popped up quite a few times in the last few months. I don't think anyone ever recieved an actual Wave 2 Alpha from them. Some Tankers have contacted them about it and they said they were accidently listed, but they keep showing up. The bottom line is that K-Mart sucks and have no clue about their own merchandise.

Really? That IS messed up. I almost jumped on this, but after reading your post I'm hesitant.

First off, they are officially wave 3 (wave 2 was the Mantis Sub, Snarler Cycle and retooled Firebat)
Second, yeah, Kmart doesn't have a damn clue what they are doing with their online website between the mess with this wave of GI Joe vehicles, and now Transformers fans have "gotten the love" by Kmart posting wave 2 and 3 of upcoming Transformers product to only send wave 1 or sometimes old Revenge of the Fallen merchandise. DO NOT BUY FROM KMART.COM

They have been there for over a week, you think they would be there for less than a couple of hours if this was real?
