When I was at Dorkside yesterday, they told me that Hasbro allowed retailers to release the wave early which is why they've started shipping. For some reason Hasbro is getting pretty strict about when waves can be released. It's possible the TRU employee looked at the side of the case and saw the Aug. 1 street date or their computer system wasn't updated with the ok to sell the figures. I don't particularly like the street date system but it's better than not having a release date at all.
