« on: November 14, 2008, 05:56:06 PM »

I'm not sure if anyone noticed this little bit from the latest BBTS newletter:

Oh for Pete's sake, this is ridiculous. 4 single pack waves released in less than 2 months.

I bet there is no way Canadian retailers are going to keep up with this.

Hmm, good point.

Canadian retail is already 2 waves behind online stores (I'm not sure if Wave 8 '08 has hit US retail yet).  I can certainly see us missing a wave here in Canada unless these things absolutely fly off the shelves.

BBTS is listing November 25th as the arrival date for these.  I wonder why we haven't seen any photos yet.  Could a launch of the Resolute Web Site (or some such media) be just around the corner?

Hasbro must really have us hooked. A lot of us have blindly pre-ordered this wave without any idea of what we are getting. I don't like that. Doesn't make me feel good about this.

Especially when you take into account the pics of the new comic packs (Shockblast/Destro, SS/Tunnel Rat).  Both of those comic packs come with comics titled "GI JOE RESOLUTE"

And we all know what that Destro looks like (UGH!!)
