I've spent the last 20 minutes trying to find why you can't locate these when searching for them, and the only thing I've found is that they list the mfg. as "Diamond" instead of "Diamond Select Toys" as all other Minimates are listed. The OOS Universal Creatures 'mates are also listed as "Diamond", but then again they are also in the "Action Figures > Military Figures" category. <_<

Updated!

At the time of this posting, there are

121 x Namor/Atlantean Soldier

281 x Torch/Thing

280 x Reed/Doom

116 x Sue/MoleMan

Wow, maybe TRU/DST have finally worked out the distribution issues to the website. :happy:

Maybe they'll add some Hulkbusters and Lockjaw packs while they're at it. I'd love to know how this stuff works with them and what they order.

It's a new item number, right? So technically, it's viewed as a new item and nothing with previous stock associated with it? I'm no expert but that's how I saw it. The old item number was flooded with older stock so I assume they only ordered a small amount.

I just found the hidden links for this wave at tru.com. I placed my order with no problem and they are listed as in stock. Good luck to everyone here are the links.

I got my sets purchased by my american contact / forum member. Sorry TRU Canada, I just couldn't wait for you guys to get 'em in. If they DO show up north of the border, I will support the canadian market and purchase sets for my 2 nephews who are turning into rabid minimate addicts.

Hopefully this is a sign of things to come. It certainly beats hoping my store might deem them worthy of touching their shelves/pegs on some far off day. Should they show up locally, I'll still buy some, to pay tribute to management who took pity on this collector, but at least now I'm set either way.

No problem my friend. I hate that TRU "hides" links for active products so I am all for getting the information out, especially when I get the feeling this wave is going to sell like hot cakes.

As an unemployed hotcakes salesman, I hope these do better than that!

I went ahead and took the online route, and was able to get the free shipping, which made the deal even sweeter, not having to stress about in-store availability and driving around. Now, if I see them in the store, I may get some extras, but don't have that feeling of urgency I usually have on TRU exclusives.
