Doubt there ever be any PoC figures.

Zellers at Eglinton near Warden had the Ghost Hawk and Doom Cycle, and nothing else POC on the shelves yet.
I just went this Zellers, still have the PoC Alphas on the shelf. I check the toy skids they had on the floor and I saw a box of PoC mechs, still no sign of the figures.

The Oshawa Centre Zellers had POC figs yesterday. almost missed them (anyone else having a hard time seeing these on the peg) looked all thought the ROC stuff and almost left before i noticed them. They had all figs from wave one. I picked up the Beach Head as I regreted not getting him at walmart, my son picked out snake eyes (like he doesn't already have enough of him) and snow job. price was $7.99 per fig. left an alley viper and a CC.
Yeah, I agree that these cards are HARD to see in the crowd of other product on the shelves. When I first found them at Walmart, I walked down the aisle and right past them--didn't even see them in the jumble--and my step-son found them. I literally find them by "feel" now........I walk a ways down the aisle, stop, turn toward the shelves and just sort of stand there for a minute sorting out what I see until I spot them--LOL!
I cannot imagine trying to spot them in the train wreck that is the usual Zellers toy department.

Man TRU is really missing the boat on this stuff. by the time they get their stuff out all the kiddies will have their fill of Duke, Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow so they are going to have tons of them warming the pegs.
Not to mention they'll probably be charging $9.99. Hopefully it won't affect their decision to bring in the exclusives.

Found the Wave 2 Alphas at the Zellers at Cedabrae Mall. They only had one of each available.
Same at Shoppers World (Vic. Park & Danforth) except they had 3 of each.
Post by: SnowHawk on November 29, 2010, 08:32:17 AM
They had all the wave 2 figures (except JV). I picked up Zartan, Recondo and Destro for son.
But they had ICE CUTTER. I am excited to get my hands on that one. I didn't see an Awe Striker, but I already got mine from Hal. So at least it is good news that the Ice Cutter's have landed here.

I did not get a chance, too busy at work to look during my lunch hour. Thanks for letting me know.
Post by: garling23 on December 18, 2010, 12:36:45 AM
3 shock troopers
2 snake eyes
3 dukes
4 storm shadows
grabbed 2 shock troopers, duke, and snake eyes.... my son really wanted anoother storm shadow so i let him pick it out. does not look all that great in the package. However, after he opened it up and we played with it for awhile i think its a pretty solid figure. great accessories as most of this line seems to have.

Who is on this wave? I found Duke, Storm Shadow and Shock Troopers at a Zellers yesterday. I guess Snake Eyes is in this wave.
Still looking for a Recondo from wave 2.
I think it's just those 4 guys.
As for Recondo, you aren't missing much. Too much goofy gear can ruin a figure. :(

The thing I don't like about Recondo is his head can only be in the down position.

The trick with wave 1 & 3 Stormy is not to call him Storm Shadow! Just call them Desert and Snow Ninjas!
A better trick is to leave them on the shelf so that Hasbro gets the idea that we've had our fill on Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow for at least a year. :wink:

I have not seen them at retail either. I am assuming there is a peg warmer out of the wave (probably Snake Eyes or Duke).

I've only come across wave 2, someone on another board did say they found some at the TRU in the States.

other than the hiss tank. i find it to be a little difficult for him to use. it does not clip in very well and the tank treds altough cool looking, they don't move the greatest.
I think I read somewhere that the Black HISS Tank has those issues fixed

Nobody wanted this Shockie? He was still there. I bought it for Hobbes, so he is gone now. Actually the Joe section looked untouched since I was last there.

I appreciate the good vibes! After literally months of searching (when did these start showing up again?) I happened to be by the Centrepoint Mall Zellers and sure enough I found 3 Shock Troopers. Paid $8.99 but couldn't care less at that point.

Three Zellers I hit up this weekend had dropped the ROC Rhino to $30.00 from $49.99. Some had the new yellow clearance sticker, one did not, so check the scanner to be sure.
Hopefully there will be another sale soon dropping the price below $20.00

Not exactly POC, but rather ROC.

Cool toy but I don't have room for the one I own. In fact, I'm now out of vehicle room, period. My new Sky Striker is sitting in the rec room just leaning against the wall. The new vamps are parked on top of my PS3. I really should take a picture some time time of my current set up...
