I'm completely disappointed I wasn't able to get any of Wave 4 for my son (I was hoping to get them for him for Easter). After standing in line for an hour, our TRU didn't get any new ones.

Given that there are still a couple of weeks before Easter, I'm hoping the other major retailers are next on the list to receive them.

If folks will post here when they find them at other retailers, that will give the rest of us a heads up that they may be available at our local stores (or on the way).

Thanks for the help!!!

I haven't heard anything yet, but I have a friend of a friend who's going into work at Target soon. They're gonna check the computers and see if a new shipment's coming soon.

I wish the morons at our store had done that. I could have made it down to another store. By the time we found out, it was too late. They made about 150 people VERY angry.

You may want to check with your local Gamestop. I talked to several in my area today and they had shipments ship via UPS yesterday so they should have the tomorrow or Friday. They of course do not know what is in them, only that they are all the single pack characters. The last time on Wave 3 they got these in they had 2 of each of the newest ones, and several older ones. This might be your best bet for the next few days. Gamestop at least in my area, (South Florida US) is really good about holding them for you especially if you have kids. Good luck I'll say a little prayer that you get them for your child for Easter. God Bless you and good luck!!

Thanks Johnny. The guys in front of me in line actually worked at GameStop, so I don't think wave 4 is expected for awhile but I'll certainly check.

Dark Gyro Blue Sparx Gems: 656
#14 Posted: 02:46:33 22/03/2012 | Topic Creator
No, they will not answer before they open. Best bet would be to call the night before.

Check Best Buy in a couple of weeks, they're getting huge shipments in from new manufacturers within the next few weeks.

It would appear TRU's already have the item. So if you called them now they should be able to tell you if they will have them Sunday. Keep in mind though several TRU's got over excited and released some today potentially wiping out their Sunday supply.

As unhappy as I was with TRU this morning I know where to go to get my DP on Sunday I will bring my kids with me this time as backup though.

I was told by my local Target that they are expecting 25-30 characters on Friday. They don't know which ones but they are suppose to be getting some in. Walmart had more than usual this morning as well. Hopefully they will start trickling in.

My target had some wave 4, but I missed it by a few hours because I saw Bash there and isn't he part of wave 4?

Definitely not, Bash has been out for a long time. The only new Bash that's part of Wave 4 is a Toys R Us exclusive BLUE Bash.

Yes, but I haven't been seeing Bash in my stores' shipments I've only seen wave 2 and barely one or two single packs of wave 3.

Some posted in the huge TRU March 21st thread, that they found some wave 4 characters at Target. I haven't checked, but worth a shot..... I scored 0 new characters yesterday, and am no better of now that I was before the "release". Best of luck.

Thanks folks. GameStop seems to be pretty erratic.

Probably should keep this thread to the major retailers (but of course, any help is welcomed!). It seems the majors are more consistent and get the same product throughout the company at relatively the same time.

All the gamestops in my area N IL only have old ones but at least they are starting to have them at all.

I just found Lightning Rod, Ignitor, and 2 Zook at one of my Walmarts. I can't believe Walmart was more reliable than TRU.

I'm so happy right now!!!

Here they are:

(For Australians) Dick Smith has Zook, Lightning Rod and Ignitor registered on their website but with no image yet. This means that the store will be getting them in VERY soon.
