good to hear, I kinda thought that the AV would be packed in with a revision wave or as a filler.

same here, the AV is out there, just have to be there at the right time I guess.  I used to collect Mcfarlane Sports Picks and getting to the chase figs was always a challenge.  if you missed them going out.. you missed the chases.  they never usually restocked them after that.  Hotwheels seem to be the big deal aswell.  there are lots of guys around here who collect or scalp treasure hunts from that line.  once a certian car has come and gone.. its gone too.  It seems that the Joe stuff gets restocked, or some from the one wave show up in later waves aswell.

I know what you mean, I try to hit stores when they first open or during my lunch hour when I can.  That is the only reason I have been lucky.

ya i saw that, crappy packing or something...  I have been finding alot of the POC vehicles are sliced open across the top.  looks like stockers are cutting the box open and slicing the boxes.

I so hate when they do that...  :mrt:   I worked at a superarket for 10 years during my youth...  :shifty:  and the box cuters we used were adjustable so we did not cut the product... it is not rocket science...

If your finding this specifically at the North Oshawa Wal mart, I can tell you its because the overnight crew is utterly useless.

I forget to also mention that the D-bag switcher is back.  He swapped out some dollar store figure for a RoC Pit Commando.  This was at the Markham and Steeles WM.

Found a full brand new case of wave 2 at bayview/major mac walmart this morning. Managed to score all the ones i wanted including the 2 jungle vipers. :) Awsome looking figures. Man, if that's it for wave 1 that wasn't a very big window and not much product. Heck, TRU hasn't even gotten any in yet! I guess the wait is on for wave 3, next year sometime.

Has it been confirmed we're getting spirit and quick kick at TRU. I see people saying "when" they come, but has it been confirmed by a legit source? Considering they haven't even gotten any in yet, I'm just wondering.
