I can't complain. According to Jay's handy dandy list, I have seen all the waves and collections and what nots except for Wave 4. Collection 1, Wave 3 hit my TRU a couple of days ago. I picked up Reactive Armor Ripcord and Acc. Suit Duke just today. I went by hoping beyond hope to find the Arctic Snake Eyes and the Para-Viper and to take advantage of the 2 for 11 dollar sale they got going on.

Down here in TX it has been so hit and miss that I can never tell how the distributor is parceling stuff out. For example I have found the Helix wave, and gotten the Acc. suit Duke. But have never even seen the ROC Paraviper or Doctor on the pegs anywhere.

Wow, that's complicated!

Off the top of my head, I know I've seen all of C1:W1, C2:W1, C1:W2, and C2:W2. Never seen any of C1:W3, and from C2:W3, I've only seen Hawk and the Eel. Is Wave 4 even out yet? I've certainly seen none of it.

As a side note, this topic is the first time I've realized that "reactive armor" and "accelerator suits" are apparently two different things. I even saw the movie, but this entire time, I've simply thought the names were interchangeable. I figured in the Paris scene, Duke and Ripcord were just wearing slightly souped-up reactive armor with helmets.

That's what happens when everything your characters wear in the field is black!! How about some color variety next time?!?

Still haven't seen a Rex over here... and I want one bad!!

I'm not too worried about figures showing up, they will eventually.

My complaint is really simple: WALMART JUST DISTRIBUTE THE TOYS ALREADY!!!!

Thank you, that is all.

As far as I know, wave 4 is not out yet.

Well, the new Pursuit Of Cobra subset should make you happy, for it is split into four thematic genres: Urban, Jungle, Arctic and Desert.
GeneralsJoes has a full page featuring all the upcoming releases of the line:

There's a LOT of awesome toys in there. A few characters repeating get a bit redundant (Duke features in three of the four themes) but with a quick headswap these could make new ROC-verse versions of other characters, or even your own original creations.

Just visited the ToysRus near Everett Mall in Washington state. Picked up most wave 2 and 3. Got a few docs just for good measure ;-) And 2 for $10 which was nice.... and driving back into Canada... no duty baby! Woot! what a fine day.
