GI JOE Super Wave 3 pre-orders up
- Thread starter Slaymaker
- Start date
What? Hasbro failing at marketing opportunities? Say it isn't so!
I thought that was their WHOLE point, to get the figures there to go along with the DVD release..

Here is an idea, Include a figure with DVD/Blue Ray purchase, encourage children to buy toys....
Yeah, our luck they'd throw in that horrible Zartan or Wave 1 Duke..
THAT'D kill the line right quick!
^^
hahaha.
I got BBTS cuz they are reliable and haven't let me down yet. That's with over 20 orders placed
at Eddie

DST's been reliable for me. I recall seeing somewhere that someone had an issue, but I can't remember what it was. They just get less inventory than BBTS.
Shipping... although to my island it's stupidly high priced! I feel violated... that's until they arrive and I'll forget about the shipping costs lol
HTS has singles up for preorder. Credit to the dude on HT.

Weird.. looks like they plan to have Wave 3 in stock 09/09 and Wave 3 09/30 still kind of a ways off.
Not bad though, don't forget to use the Comic con password for 10% off.

That Cobra Commander is very tempting. Stormy looks nice too. Looks like the quality of the whole wave is a little better. Paints could be a bit nicer, but they aren't terrible.

Is this the wave everyone ordered? My shit shows I ordered it in May, and it's just saying "Preorder" still.

Maybe this is a good sign of how available this wave will be.
Or HTS has finally heard from enough people they should offer pre-orders on single figures.
I've been telling that to the hasbro guy I email occasionally...
And man I really want three more ultimate dukes...

I'm kind of surprised they didn't have the whole wave up for preorder like they've done in the past.
Whats the per figure limit now on HTS?

Oh wow, crazy. I remember when they first put some of the Retaliation figures they limited it to 2 per person (Joe trooper etc).
Guess these are technically preorders though.

if anyone has 2 extra Night Vipers they would be willing to part with I keep missing them on HTS. I just need 2 for my boys.
They will add more Night Vipers again. Since these are preorders they haven't even ordered their cases yet. If enough other figures from the case sell out they will add more. I just ordered just about everything I wanted. I only need 1-3 Night Vipers and I will have my fill of Joes. Now to track down the new Marvel Universe and 4" Star Wars figures...
Also, I think they now placed a limit of 10 each. I just tested to see how many of each figure they have left and they all say 10, so it has to be a limit.

thanks Falcone, I forgot about the Mysterio and Rhino for my boys and Elektra for my daughter. When I saw your post I looked to see what next wave was and then it hit me I forgot about them.
Dammit, missed it again. I was on the phone with the fucking county courts for over 3 damn hours trying to extend my jury duty summons because I have to work tomorrow.
If I can snag 3 Night Vipers eventually, I may just cancel that BBTS preorder of the set of 4. I don't much give a damn about yellow Jinx or Blind Master at this point.

Don't give in and order from another site like my impatient ass did. I ordered from Dorkside a couple days ago thinking that ultimate duke was never going to be back up for pre order so I ordered just 1, I'm glad I just ordered "1" because ultimate Duke was back up at HTS and I ordered 5 Dukes and 1 Flint at 9.99.
However, I am glad I snagged at least 3 Combat Ninjas at Dorkside those things are sold out everywhere.
I need at least 1 Night Viper too.
Well, at least I just got a "refund" of sorts... I got 2 Data-Vipers, a Colton, Lady Jaye, and Ultimate RB and deleted my preorders at BBTS for my "extra/fodder" orders I made way back in May... Don't forget the COMIC2013 code for an extra 10% off. I ordered right at $50 so I got free shipping, plus the discount which took care of tax.
If I can catch 3 Night Vipers when they're in stock, and 3 of that Cobra Whatever-Viper (the urban camo dude) then I'll cancel my 4-pack preorder at BBTS and my extras there, too.
Otherwise, I guess I'll just hang onto my BBTS Wave 3.5 case of 12, since that's actually cheaper than the HTS singles, and the only figure I really don't care for is that "Ultimate" Firefly, and I can use his legs for custom fodder....

Is the Comic code coupon good for all sites or BBTS? The Cobra 'Whatever' Viper is the one I wanted the most in this set and I have just 3 on preorder, that badboy looks sik!!! So I'm happy with my 3 for the time being at least I'm protected from the hoarders on that one.
So far it looks like I'm gonna have to ask for a solid from one of the members on here who's hoarding 20-30 NV's. I just want one....just one
The Comic2013 code is only good at hasbrotoyshop.com.
I don't think too many folks on here are hoarding 20-30 NVs. I'd imagine 3-5 max. The members here aren't huge ARAH fans, they're more likely to hoard the modern Duke or Flint, or maybe that Ninja Viper guy.

Thanks for the heads up on the code! Have you seen the listings on Ebay for some of the figures yet? WOW just WOW, I cant believe people are paying those prices already and some of those are nothing but pre-orders too.
I suppose your right on the Ultimate Duke, Flint and the Viper those three I think look the coolest. I don't know what people see in the Data viper though.
