Shipment one: 1-19 BATS out of 50 2- 25 Alley Vipers out of 35 NFS, all will be opened to add to Cobra.
Good god save some for the rest of us. edit: seriously these things are hard to come by. You ordered 10x what I did and now I worry I won't get any. I ordered about 5 BATS And 3 AVs.
The BATs and Alley Vipers aren't retailer exclusives, they're not like the Cobra Trooper and Vipers. The Infantry and Red Ninja are pretty easily available at this point and there's no reason to think that the BAT and Alley Viper will be any different. Plus, you already put your order in, you'll get your stuff.
Yeah but you can order them via internet. Honestly if it wasn't for online sales most of the newly released stuff would be unobtained I am guessing by the majority of us. I know we hit on it in the legends thread but my targets and walmarts have nothing but pegwarmers for legends and same for joe. All snake eyes movie figures with a lady Jay or two thrown in.
Just because you haven't personally seen them doesn't mean they're not easily available. This is just from a simple google search and 3 of the 4 are in stock (EE is listed as a preorder). Did I say they were flooding brick and mortar stores? No. However if you have been unable to obtain one it's because you aren't looking in all of the places available to you. G.I.

That is interesting though, I can’t recall actually having seen a red ninja at retail ever. could this one figure have been extremely limited in its retail release for some reason? I’ve seen every other figure many times (those that were released with the obvious exception of cobra island stuff)
I never saw that wave at brick and mortar and have only seen 1 of the wave 1 repaints at a gamestop. The only waves I've found in abundance in my area are the Cobra Commander/Flint/Lady Jaye wave and the movie wave. Everything else I've pretty much had to rely on online purchases.
In addition to the then-poor distribution, the case breakdown for the wave was 3 Cobra Commander, 2 Gung Ho, 1 Red Ninja. That said, I found both my Red Ninjas at my local Targets.
I'm not feeling bad about having never seen Barbecue..because if I see him I may actually go head and pick him up. I much prefer figures like him than the straight up OG 13 look of Breaker
Sad news about the Cobra Infantry. I've gotten a couple Infantry off Amazon the past two months. Nice to add one to an order since they were still under $22 each. Little squad of 4 on my shelf now. That seems to have ended as Amazon looks to be really sold out the past couple of days and the lowest 3rd Party merchant wants $28 a figure now. https://smile.amazon.com/Classified...5731&sprefix=gi+joe+classified+,aps,80&sr=8-3 I think the age of cheap and plentiful Infantry may be coming to a close. BBTS still has him at $24.99 a pop, but not nearly as cheap or convenient as Amazon has been.
chosen prime and entertainment earth both have him listed at $22.99, though it's a preorder at chosen prime $24.99 in stock G.I.

I’ve never seen it in person. I know of someone who did find them(more than 1) at Walgreens but they get split cases and somehow that store ended up with 2-3. Locally stores ended up going heavy with the Flint/Lady Jaye/CC and Snake Eyes Origin movie waves…wish they waited and just did the same for the Alley Viper/BAT wave but guess that remains to be seen.
I don’t follow that line so I had no idea this existed; exactly what I need for a custom Firefly I have in mind.
