I wonder that myself. They MUST have plans to release these figures in other ways, and R Us just paid to have first crack at carrying them. Either that or Hasbro's backsliding after all this good they've done with the ML brand :P

Must get for me. Pretty much exactly what I wanted; a cape-less, sleeveless Thor from the promo material.

Plus, I don't have a single Rocket figure, so it'll be an all new pack for me.

Which is funny if they did pay to have first crack at them, because what is the good of that if they're horrible at stocking them. It's basically just keeping the product off the street, period. Might as well pay Hasbro to just not release them at all.

I scored Gwenpool from Walgreens for $13 as part of the sale but the rest of the wave was gone. I asked the only guy working if there might be more out back as their stocking methods seem strange but he was clueless. I'm convince there was more somewhere cause this is not a location where I suspect alot of collectors are hitting. Might hit some other Walgreens around me today.

Based on what I've seen with the spider wave and walgreens is that they are getting partial cases of figures, so that means only a few characters per delivery. Having gotten to know walgreens employees a bit, they don't have a backroom inventory of toys, they go right to the floor.

Man, that Falcon is even less of a redeco than Scarlet Witch. At least Wanda got a fully redeco'd head and new effects pieces.

Sam gets grey goggles and a few minor detail additions/alterations... including red painted over the molded straps on his shoulders, unlike the previous release. GG gang.

Plus those two came out as CW exclusives and peg warmed at Walmart even on clearance! That sets going straight to Ross man.

Hey now, don't blow a gasket. We've already got that covered here.

[shortysben]

HasbroToyShop.com is live with the Lizard and Sasquatch waves...

[Captain Nash]

All these places getting their Sasquatch and Lizard waves EXCEPT the etailers. Holding steady in my resolve to keep my preorder though - want to support a local business so they can continue to provide product via online. I feel like they're really getting screwed over with these two waves though.

Haha.....maybe but i hate having to buy junk figs just for their guns. Thats like getting three hookers and only using one.

[Tarooster]

I grabbed Deathlok Domino and Paladin.

Still deliberating about the rest of the spider wave as I am hoping to find the rest at Walgreens but the sale ends tomorrow. I feel like that wave is gonna be easier to find than the deadpool one for sure though.

Maybe for you, son. I never actually saw them down in the SD area until they hit Ross... and I was constantly hunting for them.

And by then, a friend from out-of-state already nabbed them for me when her Walmart had a handful on clearance.

At least the Bucky is a new mold.

this just means you don't actually need them...and you could have waited to purchase them and save money..AND that you're actually a toy addict that can't control yourself.
ha..but opening figures is actually a lot of work..

I walk past this guy and look at him like..i know i know him from somewhere. Then I'm thinking, wait..is it from HERE!!?. Sure enough, i says..You've been working here awhile right? He says "i sure have".
Funny thing is he looks almost exactly the same. Like barely aged. and we're talking some good ole' years ago.

You're expecting wayyy to much from certain entities. I mean sure they SHOULD be this and SHOULD be that. but...they aren't. I've noticed a change in customer service in stores starting back about 2009/2010.
notice how you can be in any give store at a certain time and walk up and down aisles looking for help and cant find a damn person on the floor.

yeah i've seen 2 of these in ONE walmart ever and i'm fairly certain those were returned by a customer. They NEVER made it up this way.

A guy comes down with influenza and comes back to see all of this Infinity War goodness. My one gripe is 2 Thor's. Obviously there is something going on in this movie we can all assume will happen. But let's see, we have Iron Man, Captain America, Spider-Man, Proxima Midnight, Thanos, Black Widow, Thor, Cull Obsidian, Vision, Scarlet Witch, Rocket, Groot, Falcon, and Winter Soldier...way to go Hasbro! I assume we will see Corvious Glaive and Ebony Maw, but we've never gotten this many characters from one film. Out of the main cast we'll be missing Loki(same attire as Ragnorak), Star-Lord, Gamora(same attire as GOTG V2), Nebula, Mantis(same attire as GOTG V2), Hawkeye, Doctor Strange(Rumored), War Machine, Black Panther(would love a purple glowing alternate), and Hulk.

Long story short, I am beyond thrilled for Marvel Legends in 2018.

[DarthKamen]

When a YouTuber mentioned that they gave Bucky facial hair I assumed "oh good, that'll probably make it look a lot better". I think it looks worse.

I wasn't collecting when Scarlet Witch was available(and I hear she was barely available then?) And Vision is nice so that's a pick up. Not a priority though.

I want that third set though. I don't have a Rocket or a Legends Groot(I have a few mainline toys of him) and the Thor looks....decent. Will probably get it.

[Struggler]

Kind of bored at the moment so, just checked hasbro's site and at the time of posts' publishing, here is what's still available:

From Deadpool Wave:

Redpool
Deathlok
Paladin

From Lizard wave:

Spider-Punk
Spider-Woman
Gwenpool
Prowler

So, basically the usual suspects. A little surprised at the rabidness for Lasher, but it is a symbiote.

Don't make me run you over with my rascal and beat you with my cane!

Saw the naked hairy canadian wave today. Gotta say other than death lock and 90's wade i was let down. They grey plastic on xforce deadpool was already discolored, especially on the calvs and feet, and his black circles on his face werent full painted. Cables eye thing was broke off and a leg and foot werent pegged together all the way. Paladin looks okay but seemed to wobble on the wait in the box. The rwo ladies werent there ( given the case was just "stocked" im sure the chud who did it heled em in back to greedbay em ) so looks like deathlock red deadpool and paladin will be my only wants. No real intrest in xforce laura and domino on the small not full grown adult body (seriously why are wl ost every new female being made using that hody instead of the afult body like thanos wave jess and nisty and even spider bitch used ?) is just blah.

[kylactus]

Buckys facial hair looks off to me. It looks like he decided to do some wolverine cosplay a week ago.

Stole this idea off DTL, really lovin’ tac-panther.
