    I'm very glad these are showing up somewhere...

    ...I would've preferred it be Target or TRU, personally, since those two have been much better at stocking Kreon waves around here. The local Walgreens do get some in too, but supply can be quite spotty. Even if mine get stock in, I can only hope I show up in time to nab a few.

    And about wave 3? These Kreons will never make it to Europe.

    Goodie, I just might find Rhinox, Demolisher, and Rodimus after all.

    Whats weird about this is that my local toy shop had these in January or early Feb. Wonder why it took so long to get them into some of the major retailers. I guess they were waiting for the department resets.

    Nice score! Can't believe they were only $2.79 - aren't they normally $2.99 or $3.49 at Target? Guess I'll have to drop by a few Walgreens on the way home. Anyone know the codes for Wave 4?

    Nice. i just checked one of my local Walgreens and they had a "mixed lot" of various different kreon lines because they didn't have enough to fill one box. Hopefully they'll be getting TF wave 4 soon here in California. Meanwhile every Target has wave 3 collecting dust on their shelves...

    Does the fact that they aren't selling very well, are soon to be going TRU exclusive, and that Hasbro seems to be putting less and less marketing 'muscle' behind the brand have anything to do with your ennui? It certainly does mine. Still love the figure expression of TF's at this scale, but I am seeing your point about that wall.

    Just found a solid, freshly-opened display box at one of my local Walgreens. Grabbed Slipstream and Demolisher; will have to wait to go back for more, but damn these appeared fast!

    I wouldn't be surprised if this is the last wave they carry, unfortunately. At the same time, since the announcement that Kre-Os are going to move on to TRU-exclusive, I've noticed that the Kre-O area at my local TRU is much more well-organized.

    Hmmm....

    Damn, now I'm gonna have to start stopping at Walgreens everyday before work until I find me a Slipstream. I hate walking into a small store like that repeatedly, going to the toys, and walking out with nothing over and over again...makes me look like a weirdo lol.
