It's sad, this is the first year since the line started when January wasn't hopping with new stuff found at retail (though last year, it was mostly in the UK).

China leaks are going strong though. Speaking of Emote Series, I think Boxer got mentioned already here, but now Awesome Action Toys has his hands on Polar Patroller.

Beginning to think I need to get back into TaoBao if I ever want to get anything new. Don't have a clue where the missing waves will wind up if big box stores skip them.

Saw that. Its a cool figure. He also has the Jazwares Foundation too. Its in one of his “haul” videos. I just cant figure out what is going to happen to all these figures. I want so many of them, but Chaos Agent, Slone, and The Foundation are my top 3.

I really want the Polar Patroller to add to my shelf opposite Iceberg. Doesn't need much customizing to be a perfect Cobra genetic soldier from that weird sunbow episode where Iceberg had to fight the arctic animal DNA hybrid cobra soldiers.

Based on what I've seen from Amazon, Smyth's, and Target's system response, I'm going to have to TaoBao Deimos, Zyg, and Slone.

Are Master Grade still in the system? Really want that new Foundation figure.

How do I use TaoBao and order the 4" figures?

The generic DCPI is, but the newer Master Grade figures are not individually listed.

I notified the Retail Communication Service (our way of asking questions about the merchandise we receive) about Deimos, Zyg, Slone, and Chaos Agent being listed under old, salvaged-out DCPIs and was told #ItemsNotLegal, which is a fancy way of saying stores aren't supposed to get them, much less sell them. That's why I think they are getting skipped over at Target and may wind up at Ross, Dirt Cheap, or elsewhere at some future point. But there's no guarantee of when or where that will happen, so...

It's also possible they get relisted under the new DCPI, but that's usually only happens if something has been repackaged, and I would imagine all those figures have already been manufactured with the old info. I was hoping Comm Services would just change the DCPI for just those figures, but that doesn't seem likely given the response.

Remember back in the Power of the Jedi days when Hasbro used UPC stickers? Probably the fastest and easiest way for Jazwares to turn 'old' Fortnite product into 'new' Fortnite product.
