    No RA wave 2 figures yet in Toys-R-Us Mayaguez, Puerto Rico. Only a couple of Sinestros and one Luthor from wave 1.

      It's really weird how, based on everyones' local reports here, different TRUs have different characters hanging on the pegs. You'd think the peg-warmer would be the peg-warmer but it seems there isn't one in Wave 2 so far. A good sign for sales perhaps.

        I finally seen wave 2 in person at newbury comics. They were 29.99 each but decided I'd wait til I see them at TRU but I thought in person the figures are really great looking!

        Can't wait to find them at TRU now.

          Seems they were testing the waters on how to pack the number of figures in each case, IMO.
          It would have made sense for wave 1 to pack 3 Supes, 3 GL, 1 Lex and 1 Sin.
          Looks like they got the right combination for Wave 2 but I would have done is remove the Supes and add a Batman only if they shipped Wave 1 with the configuration I mentioned.

                  Retro Heroes

                  hey fellow megoheads! I took a road trip this saturday to the toy r us in winchester va. No luck! They had 3 sinestros and two luthors on the shelf.I talked to a very helpful employee who was the dude to see about action figures because he was a collector. He took the time to look them up in their system and they were in stock but were estimated to arrive between 9/5 and 9/11 from the warehouse. I decided to come back home and order them online.I placed the order and it said they are estimated to arrive between 8/25 and 8/30. I wanted to buy them at the store but can't afford to travel to the store every weekend.This is the nearest toys r us to me from where I live and it takes about 2hrs to get there. I would say if you don't have the time to check the stores order them online. I ordered 1 of batman and 1 of two face. Best regards to all.

                    I was on the road today and checked in two along the way.

                    No Wave 2 at Christiana Delaware or Trenton, NJ.

                      Happened to be in Lancaster over the weekend. Found an Aquaman there and a very new looking Supes. The rest were Lex and Sinestro. Bought the Aquaman. Nothing from Wave 2 in Maryland, yet.
                      It's all good!

                        TRU wave two

                        I saw an Aquaman sitting on the shelf at my TRU, but didn't see any others or the peg for Wave 2, so I didn't see a price. They still had Sinestro and Lex at $19.99. It was as if someone opened one box of Wave 2 and set them out on accident. This was a week ago.

                              There were two Supermans (Supermen?) at the Rockaway Mall TRU this weekend.
