What happened to wave 1?  I here the States is all wave 2 now as well.  And why couldn't Hasbro pack two Alley vipers in a case like the Jungle Vipers?  And why short pack troop builders ever at all?  They better not pull this BS with the Shock Trooper.  Maybe some Alley Vipers in the Shock Trooper wave because so far the case consists of only four new figures and the rest repeats.

There can be only one.  One true GIJoe that is!

The Alley Viper is being restocked in later Wave 2 revision cases.  So he will still be coming to shelves for the next while.  Unfortunately you'll probably still have to be lucky to snag one.

Argyle in London has a ton of w1 and w2, every fig left from both assts other than the two army builders. I left Recondo et al but picked up the vipers to trade or build. Also got the awesome Jabba and throne WM exclusive. Great toy day at WM! They also had some Ravens and Bravo ROC stuff on clearance.

I also had a Great Day at WM!  I picked up 2 Alley-Vipers, 2 Firefly, 2 Jungle-Vipers and 2 Cobra Commanders!  I also picked up 2 Kung-Fu Kick SE and Recondo!  It's not often that you see 2 full waves siting on the peg!  I was at the Walmart at Highway 407 and Donald Cousins Parkway.

Don't hate me... I went to the WM at Morningside and 401 and they just restocked on Wave 1 and Wave 2 figs.  I picked up another AV, FF and 2 JVs and Kung-Fu SE.

Still haven't seen wave 2 yet. I'm hoping I find them soon. Looking for two of each minus leg action SE.

They just starting to come out on Thursday, so give it time.

Yeah, just eager. Especially considering one set will be a Christmas gift and I've never been one to disappoint (doing my part to keep the younger ones interested). I've got to pick up the wave 2 vehicles as well.

I am getting anxious about the W2 vehicles, I hope we don't get skipped on them. Considering the 25th and ROC items that never showed up, I am skeptical.

Somebody in Nova Scotia posted a pic w/receipt of the Wave 2 VAMP that he bought I believe at Zellers.  So I would hazard a guess that we will see some of them soon at retail.
