One case! I actually got to a TRU when they were stocking and only one case had come in there. How can anyone find figures if their only getting one case per store? No wonder I can't find any Shock Troopers anywhere.

Also Star Wars is effected too, Thier wave 5 in vintage hit stores in December and Wave 4 is just now hitting.

Only things that don't seem to have overwhelming issues is the first waves of movie lines. Of course that is all retailers fault /sarcasim

Heh I have no problem finding those here.

I think that's it. Just one case per store. That is what my Target got for Thor movie figures, one case!

Agree with your Hasbro distribution comment, why can I buy POC HISS tanks on closeout at Ross, when you can't find them new at retail. I like the fact they are half the price, but it's a joke finding new product at a closeout place but never seeing it at the normal outlets.

Wasn't it Andre The Giant who said that anyway?
