Dude! I would have picked them up just for possible future trades. Them two are sought after figures.

I think MU wave 8 only made it to Target in large numbers and even then not all Targets got the regular Archangel. Some Targets got the MU endcap display which was randomly packed with regular wave 8 (so might have zero Archangels) and some Targets got the revision case that only had the variant Archangels and some Targets got the revision case that had Jim Lee Wolverine, Juggernaut, Thor and Red Hulk, but no Archangel at all.
For the most part Walmart initially skipped wave 8 and got tons of wave 9 instead, except some people are reporting just getting some wave 8 at Walmart with variants. TRU also for the most part skipped wave 8 for tons of wave 9 and some wave 10. Even if there is wave 8 out there somewhere waiting to be shipped there is no guarantee that they contain the regular Archangel… might be the variants only… or vice versa. Plus, since Archangel is such a cool looking fig people usually like to have a few of him; one to open, one to keep MOC and one to trade... if you add on to that all the normal hoarding and scalping that happens with MU and that he was 1 per case... it sort of explains why Archangel doesn't last long on the peg IMO.

They have re-issued figures in the past, but I don't know if there's any rhyme or reason as to who gets re-issued
