fwoosheyman Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 The new Fantastic Four wave is now up on TRU.com however none are in stock except for Reed/Doom. There's only one Reed/Doom set available so I doubt it is in stock either. Also, listed are the universal monsters but they too are not in stock.

karamazov80 Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 ..........surely we all know the score with TRU Waves by now ? That people freak out about them for a couple weeks, telling horror stories, etc., and after that they end up sitting on eBay unbought at almost retail prices?

karamazov80 Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 But freaking out and bitching is what we're good at. I don't think anyone here was criticizing this behavior. Just stating an observation. I fully intend to freak out alongside everyone else. In fact, I'm already freaking out. HOW ARE WE GONNA GET AHOLD OF THE ATLANTEAN ARMY BUILDER?? IT ISN'T EVEN RELEASED IN A REGULAR WAVE??? GROUNDHOG IS GONNA BUY THEM ALL, AND THE REST OF US ARE GONNA HAVE NOTHING!! NOTHING!!! Damn you, DST.

groundhog7s Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 GROUNDHOG IS GONNA BUY THEM ALL, AND THE REST OF US ARE GONNA HAVE NOTHING!! NOTHING!!! They're out of stock because I already bought them all. I'll even post pics of all 1589 packs on my kitchen table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turtle Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 (edited) I recommend everyone buy some Critter Ridder and spray your TRU's down. It's the only way to be sure. Once Groundhog is out of the way, we only have to worry about scalpers, hoarders, and army builders.

buttheadsmate Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Critter Ridder? I could do with something similar for my constipation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 (edited) For those who call ahead, it looks like they've changed the item number for the Marvel waves. Used to be 113214, but is now listed on the site as 637788. I guess I would try both. Edited September 2, 2010 by Lobsterman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainChunk Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 Looking forward to walking into my TRU and finding these in great abundance, just like the the current wave.

SouthFLGuy Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 For those who call ahead, it looks like they've changed the item number for the Marvel waves. Used to be 113214, but is now listed on the site as 637788. I guess I would try both. I'll have to go in tomorrow and have them check that in the warehouse system if its on order. Having them on a new SKU would save me from having to buy and return a dozen Ironman/crimson dynamo, Ironman/Stiltman sets to the other TRU half an hour north.

pawcanada Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Darn it! I've been wanting to hold off buying minimates this month to help save money, and then they go and release the new TRU wave three days in! Rather than having to rely on eBay, if anyone is able to help a UK collector please drop me a message Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HRGMann Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 I think this is a perfect opportunity to reset the case ratios... folks will want the fantastic FOUR, not fantastic THREE and possible guest. Since the team is spread out over 3 packs, make them all in equal numbers, and since you have 3 spots left, lets just put 3 of that pack nobody will want in there as well. Who in their right mind want want even ONE Namor/Atl Soldier? Kids like the Thing and Human Torch! Let's make the ration 5-3-3-1! Aaaargh! Gotta go get my coffee....

Twisted Two-Face Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 I'm assuming that when Chuck said all but one pack would be exclusive, he HOPEFULLY meant that the Atlantean would be available again, as will Namor, but not together in the same pack. PLEASE let me be right, Gods. The Atlanteans look like so much fu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TENIME_art Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Make fun of us all you want - I still have never seen a Hulkbuster pack in stores, and have only seen Lockjaw once. There are people who are still looking for a Moonstone or Warpath. You may see it as needless whining, but we have valid reason to complain.

I'm not making fun of anybody & I presumed you knew that , I will however not accept that the last wave was, eventually, that difficult to obtain . I was actually trying to pour oil on troubled waters calm things down before the furore begins again. Usually I try & keep out the way of the 'latest' TRU thread & I may well do the same this time.

mrjasontodd Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 i pass by a hulkbuster & lockjaw all of the time now at my TRU. at first nothing but now its there, i HOPE the FF wave will be like that too. Also, i think i may have inadvertently tipped off a known scalper about minimates when he was asking me if i am looking for any DCUC or Marvel universe.
