with the poc vehicles showing up at ross(the newest wave at that) and wave 3 only being available online or in Canada and pegs nationwide FILLED with waves 1 and 2 it might be time to hit the poc panic button,stranger things have happened people.
think about it, this latest ross sighting could be the beginning of the end to this line,if retailers are already sending poc stock to discount stores who knows,maybe we should look for wave 3 at ross or tjmaxx? http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...k-v5-ross.html http://www.hisstank.com/forum/g-i-jo...ml#post2112684 Last edited by SNAKE EYES; 12-07-2010 at 01:29 AM..

I don't want to fan the flames of hysteria, but short of some strange fluke, I don't think this development is particularly healthy, no.

honestly i dont either,i love this line but to me i say its a bad sign,we have had plenty of promising figures and vehicles in the past be cancelled just when we thought they were going to show up,i think the retail market still has a bad taste in its mouth from roc and now that these revision cases have shown up and caused a hault they might have thrown in the towl

the thing that sucks is the line was doing very well,but revisions seemed to screw it all up,maybe if they would do away with revisions we wouldnt have this problem and thus we could have a longer run with a particular line?

I'm seeing several AWE strikers on the shelf. Not moving yet.
I thought these would be selling well. |

Revisions were a problem, I guess. I can't pretend to know the business dealings. I do think had retailers stuck with the suggested $5.99, it would have done better.
But look at me, talking like it's a done deal. Who knows? Maybe it's just a fluke of distribution. Or d-bag collectors like us need to quit hoarding all the Alley Vipers. |

I think the theory in the other thread that the Ross Bravos might be stuff that was originally headed towards Target and got dumped instead might be a very valid one. |

Wasn't PoC only going to wave 4 anyway? It was my understanding that PoC was going to end so they could gear up for Renegades production so it really didn't matter just how well it went as it was going to stop regardless. At leas that was what I hear.
