    I'm quite frustrated over here in Delaware. Before Christmas we were getting the Sideways wave of Cybertron deluxes. Since Christmas has ended, all I've seen anywhere is Hotshot, Thundercracker, Override, and Red Alert. This is at least 4 different stores....and the only places I know of to buy TFs around here. We have new basics, megas, leaders, ultras, minicons, alternators, and BW10ths, but just those 4 old deluxes.

    Is Hotshot, Thundercracker, Override, and Red Alert even a wave? Why do 4 different stores have that assortment and only that assortment? Confusing and frustrating...

    My area is currently on the Crosswise, Brim, Thunderb, Armada repaints wave at Walmart and Target. TRU is stuck on the Sideways, Snarl, Override, red alert wave.

    Crosswise, Brimstone, Thunderblast, Sideways... And I think we just got them up here in NorCal which means we won't be seeing Downshift for MONTHS...:banghead:

    Here in Boise we just barely got buried in the Brimstone/ Crosswiese/ Thunderblast wave. Seriously, nothing but those three with scattered Armada Remolds and Snarls. I thought Hot Shot, Thundercracker and Red Alert would never go away.

    There's this weird Wave 3.6, that is all wave 1 and 2 deluxes, but none of the newer figures. The Target I wrok at has gotten four of these cases in and surpisingly, have sold through most of them. That's probably the wave you're seeing at your stores.

    Sounds like it. It's frustrating, because not a single one is selling in any of the stores. Every other size class just keeps on movin', and we're stuck with deluxes everybody already owns so nobody buys. I have a feeling we won't get a new wave until they move... Grrrrr....

    It varies for me.
    I see everything from Wave 2 (Override, Hot Shot, Dirt Boss, Red Alert, Thundercracker, Landmine) to Wave 4 (Crosswise, Brimstone, and Thunderblast)
