Star Wars 6" black series wave three in Canada

[Rev]

Finally! My wife found wave three at a Target in Orillia. She grabbed the only Stormtroopers and Obi Wan. I already have Bespin Luke from the US.

About time! I'm very happy to get a Stormtrooper finally.

Bout fucking time.

I hope I can snag a storm trooper. Other than fett it's the only fig from the Star Wars series I want.

OK this is great news! I must have spend 2 hours visiting every Walmart and Target in my area today. Will keep a very close eye. I just need two Storm Troopers. Also if anyone has an extra Sand Trooper, I'm looking to buy. I love this line. Thanks again Rev. I was beginning to think they weren't coming.

Me too. I couldn't believe it that my wife found them. And that she got them before a scalper was fantastic. I have almost imported them a hundred times. I'd like another sand trooper as well and a few more Stormtroopers. Still, good to have one.

Yah I was so desperate I bought Bespin Luke off eBay last night. Cost me $29 so not too much. But those damn Troopers are crazy expensive. Just imagine when Chewbaca is released...He's so damn big, they had to make him crouch in the box.




By the way, anyone know if this is actually the wave 5 figures?



And the deluxe figures...




And is it true the Han in carbonite from SDCC is going main stream? Robot Kingdom has it up for sale for $70 saying its without the SDCC label.

@MULTIPLEX:

Yeah, those are supposed to be the Wave 5 figures - actually, it will be Wave 1 of the new Black & Blue packaging (replacing the Black & Orange). I think Chewie is getting pushed back into that wave as well (to help "straighten out" his crouching). Wave 4 will now have ROTS Anakin, Phase 1 clone, and carry forwards of Boba Fett and Stormtrooper.

I don't think the SDCC Fett set is going "mainstream", just that it seems Hasbro has either released some from a warehouse somewhere or did a second run. They have shown up at other online places other than Robotkingdom lately as well. I think it is just Hasbro selling some stock off to online retailers. Though why they wouldn't want to sell them thru HTS is beyond me. It is Hasbro though, so its anyone's guess!

Not at all. I was very excited about this sighting. Why did they take so long to get to Canada. Now everyone get out there before the scalpers!

added pics.

Well I got lucky today. I found two Stormtroopers at Target in Fergus. Sorry but there were no more. I had an employee scan and check the back. Looks like the cases are small, only holding 4 figures. So one of each figure per case. They only received two Stormtroopers but there is one Bespin Luke and two Obi-Wans still.
