POC Wave 2 Hitting US Retail
« on: August 25, 2010, 07:55:52 AM »

I'm sure it's old news, but Wave 2 is hitting retail in the US now.  If the same timeline holds as for wave 1, we are looking at about a month before it gets here.

That is great news, now they can hold them in the back room and not display them as what they are doing with Wave 1.  Sorry very bitter about the way they are treating the product.

In terms of the WM reset?  Do their computers actually show them in stock, just in the back?

This is crazy.
Hasbro hasn't released anything for a while and now they're releasing two waves at once then nothing else until January's wave 3?

If I found someone at Walmart that would help, I could answer that question for you.

I found POC Wave 1 at a Walmart on Montreal's South Shore.  But that's the ONLY place I've seen them.  No Zellers or TRUs I've checked has them yet.

Wave 2 is out there.. Was in Watertown, NY today and picked up Dusty. Passed on everything else, although Zartan looked like an amazing figure. Spent the rest of my money on Transformers Generations Thrust and WFC Optimus.
