Mystery Man Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Anybody else have that fretful "Please don't show up on TRU.com until I get paid" vibe about these... or is it just me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadpool Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 Anybody else have that fretful "Please don't show up on TRU.com until I get paid" vibe about these... or is it just me? i was at TRU today...thinking exactly this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 It's like, I'm desperately wanting them... but c'mon, TRU, just wait a couple more days. I'm a neurotic nut, it's true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 As long as they show up before my $20 in coupons expire, I'll manage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadpool Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 right now im not sure what to expect, since after new years my TRU's put EVERY mate they had in the back or whatever out, so it looks like they are trying to move those before they put out new ones... there were like 70 wave 13 packs... (thats the one with kingpin right?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valo487 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 I'm so amped for this and Wave 48, and I'm not much of a Fantastic Four fan, this wave to me is a contender for best overall in terms of quality. At least until Wave 50.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBT! Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 It's like, I'm desperately wanting them... but c'mon, TRU, just wait a couple more days. I'm a neurotic nut, it's true. You know what will happen, your wish will come true... and then you'll wait... & wait... & Wait.. Get disheartened that they are not getting them in and then spend the money on something else... and THEN they'll put them out... TRU has spies under your sofa... T.

gambitron Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 (edited) I thought that exact thing as I made purchases the other day. TRU spies knew to put out something that I wanted secondarily and then once my money was gone they would put out my primary want!

Get disheartened that they are not getting them in and then spend the money on something else... and THEN they'll put them out... TRU has spies under your sofa... T. You will get paid. Someone will post that they found them on sale three states over. You'll go to your closest store. They wont have them. You'll look online and see that they're on sale on the TRU website. You'll hold off. Someone will post that they found them on sale one state over. You'll go to your closest store. They won't have them. You'll go to the second closest store. They wont have them either. You'll blow your money on a night out including a fancy dinner. You'll be broke but you'll look online anyways, and you will see that they are out of stock. Your heart will sink. Someone will post that they found them on sale in your state. Your heart will sink even further. You'll get paid. You'll go to your local store. They wont have them. You'll look online and they'll still be out of stock. At this point you will be frantic. Finally they will appear back in stock online. In a mad panic of worry and fear you'll order online even though you swore you wouldn't and even though you have to pay shipping. They will come in the mail, smooshed and broken. Three months later when the next wave comes out, they'll still be on the pegs at your closest store, laughing at you and warming pegs. One year later they'll go on sale just to move them but you'll be broke again. When you come back after getting paid, they'll be gone.

Mystery Man Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 (edited) Re: TBT! and pappymojo, No way, fellas! I've played the "zig zag, waiting game paycheck mambo" with TRU.com before and don't intend to miss out this time... IF I get paid before they come out, that is. When I get paid Friday, that dough is getting set aside. No fancy dinners, no extra comics, no nothin'. I don't have a local store near me (an hour-ish away is too far to blow on money to make drives), so it's online only for me. And I will. I will have them. Oh yes, it will happen. ... as long as they don't put them up before Friday when I get paid. Edited January 2, 2013 by Mystery Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pappymojo Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 When are these supposed to hit the stores? My first set of Rewards coupons are set to expire on Friday the 11th? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Wave 48 was supposed to hit on the 9th but moved to the 16th along with bb I think. So I suppose these will hit around the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobsterman Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 When are these supposed to hit the stores? My first set of Rewards coupons are set to expire on Friday the 11th? Right after your Rewards expire, if history is any indicator. I'm in the same boat, and I swear, TRU must time when they send me Rewards to *not* coincide with any new releases.

JeffBohn Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) It's also inventory season at TRU (saw inventory tags at the store today), the number of trucks always slows way down in January.

Mystery Man Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Watching online for these like a crazy person. I refresh the page at least two dozen times a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Usually we don't see them online until sometimes a week or more after the first sightings in-store or on eBay. I'm betting we see them on eBay this week, and they hit TRU.com sometime next week. ...but I would love to be wrong about that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Webhead Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 I have another set of rewards that start on the 15th so i hope to be in good shape to use them. Bring on wave 15! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirymate Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 This is such a frustrating time of year... not much new news, too close to TF, and not much to do but sit, sit, sit, and wait for the retailers to clear out the Christmas overstock and bring in the new stuff. And with the strike pushing back shipping... I hate waiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Luke, you'll have both the regular wave and TRU wave available in your store correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 So sad. I really hope we see these soon. Like, any day now. The more I have to wait for this wave the more bummed out I feel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
