    The entire wave has been out since at least early August. I bought Blurr on August 9th.

    That's Wave 1 though right? Solid cases of Cosmos in the UK? Australia needs that.

    Yeah Wave 1. Solid cases of them all. The only one that seemed slightly scarce was Override as she sold out quickly but my local store finally restocked with her a couple of weeks ago and still has plenty. Even Nemesis Prime is sitting on the shelves. Cosmos is out of stock in my local store but plenty other stores still have double figures of him.

    That image is fuckin gorgeous. So hard to find shelves that full in my area.
    Kinda making me wish Hasbro had a "Lego Store" type setup of their own. It would be so convenient to have a place that almost always has everything in stock.

    What is the post on about they have been on shelves for weeks.
    Even longer if you count online too - I bought Cosmos for example on the 24th July.

    I guess one might argue that they didn't all show up the same day - but regardless it reasonable to say they have been out well over a month now.

    I find it funny that you boys claimed you've had wave 1 for like eternity while the thread title clearly states it's "wave 2".

    So nobody noticed that both Shadowstrip & Crasher are on the shelves among these wave 1 dudes.

    If anyone really wants Cosmos (or others) there's still some stock here in the UK but it is starting to run out now.
    With the pound absolutely smashed into the toilet at the moment you can buy deluxes for about $29 (at time of writing) plus shipping.
    PM me if you're interested. :)

    It's because Shadowstrip and Crasher aren't among the wave one assortment, the pictures just show wave 1 as well.

    @Black Convoy Burnout is out there too, I saw plenty of him last week in Sheffield when I picked up Cosmos, if I head via that Smyths again this weekend I'll get a picture

    Having watched the video and looked at the title of the video, he says a refresh of wave 1 Velocitron and all of wave 2 Legacy. There's no wave 2 Velocitron on the shelves in the pics or on the video. My local store has plenty of Burn Out in stock too. The entire post is erroneous.

    Wave 2 isn’t even in the pictures. People are simple stating the post to be wrong, as it’s also claiming that not all of wave 1 is out

    This post is horrendous. ALL of wave 1 has been on shelf since the first week of August, in full cases of each figure.

    infact, every store in the country as stock of every figure bar cosmos. Due to scalping, some stores have no stock of him, but some have 15+ (highest the website tells you) every figure is availible in vast quantities. Reckon they’ll all go on sale within the next month, just like the Marvel Legends Black Panther wave did

    It honestly only goes for around $55 here, last I checked, so when you account for shipping, it's probably not advantageous unless Zavvi US imports cases.

    Burn out already got stocked at stores. I bought him at Derby, it\'s just they don\'t seem to have refreshed stock compared to the others.
    You can still buy it at the Leicester Smyths, I saw some yesterday.

    ALL Velocitron made it\'s way to Smyth\'s already just to confirm.

    I mean cool that the news post has been edited. But they’re not ‘finally’ available here. Pretty sure they were all out here before anywhere else
