The next wave is up on the TRU website for preorder. Free shipping over $49. I easily exceeded that amount.

Iron Grenadier/Steel Brigade is already sold out. So is the three pack with the Shock Trooper.Hope these show up in stores in decent numbers.

Something else for TRU Canada not to ship in my province because there's no French on the box.
They still have some of the first 50th sets in stock too.

I thought so too at first, but looks like we will have good news for a change. Check out the packaging!

Nice!
If the packaging has French on it, we might even see them in stores!

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they will be available in stores here as well.

I placed a pre-order at TRU.com just in case, but I missed the GH/SG 2-pack. It is already sold out. I'm hoping to troop build the Shadow Guard (about 6) and get some extra Gung Hos for fodder.

I pre-ordered the 2 vehicle sets since I don't collect the modern figures. Free shipping, no hassle of hunting for them. Works for me! Just need to get the SDCC Scythe/Chimera set off ebay and I will be all done for this year.

Looks like they are gone. I just looked and couldn't find any

Yeah it looks like they mostly sold out according to some posts I have seen elsewhere. Pretty weak for a retailer as large as TRU to sell out online that quickly. Hopefully the stores get plenty of stock.

I looked yesterday and they weren't listed. I only want 2 sets so hopefully the store gets them

Gosh, if only there were a way for a manufacturer to learn how desirable a product would be before making them, some way for a customer to request amounts and particular items prior to the items showing up for sale. But that would require wizards that can prophecy the future, I'm sure; so I guess this 'prior-request' system will forever be a dream that Humanity yearns for without succor.

It will be the first of august before I get to my local TRU. So hopefully they will have them.

Nope, its the same Skystriker set as TRU has online now, Silent Strike. Gray Skystriker and orange HISS tank. BBTS sent out an email (2 actually) about it this afternoon.
