The first image that popped into my head was that set sitting on the shelf at my local TRU, with Boba Fett's window slashed to hell, and Boba and his accessories all missing

Up until a year ago, spotting that sort of theft at my local TRU was fairly common. This set seems to be a perfect target for that sort of thing.

Personally, I'd prefer if that set stayed an exclusive in Mexico and Hasbro began shipping out revision cases with Boba Fett, in the US. Like everyone else has said, those of us who wanted the other three, by now, have easily obtained them.

Technically every figure in each wave so far has been equally rare (with a box of four and each figure is one per box) but Boba Fett clearly has an extreme lead in demand over the others of his wave, hence all of my local stores are stuck on wave 2 except Walmart because they never had wave 2 they jumped straight to 3.

For those who never found Boba Fett, just about a week ago, one of the Wal-Marts in my area finally received a single case of 2013 Wave 2 figures.
Of course, the next time I was there, he was gone, while Han, Leia, and Greedo were still on the pegs.
But anyways, it may be a good sign that Wal-Mart may finally be receiving that wave.
