Hello: I am curious if there is any definitive info on when the wave 5 figures should be hitting shelves? Also, the TRU exclusives. When are they supposed to land. And 3rd. Has anyone heard any rumors on the figures for wave 6? I am always afraid that I will get into a collection, and buy up everything and then they end the series. I got burned so many times with DC Direct figures. I would start buying a series, and then they would stop producing the series after wave 2. I have all the current Marvel Muggs figures except the ones that have not come out yet (obviously...duh.). I am afraid that this will burn out also. They seem to be very slow in releasing info about upcoming releases. Hasbro has released a ton of the Super Hero Squad figures, so I am hoping that Muggs will be as prolific. Thanks.

This past friday i went to a walmart where i encountered an employee that was downright unhelpful. The clerk could barely speak english and gave me excuses like this is all we have. The only selection in the whole store was 2 mola rams. Anyway the clerk was so rude and unhelpful i felt the need to at least someone know. I spoke to the manager and she agreed the clerk was very unhelpful and could at least scanned the item or at least checked the shelf themselves. The customer service manager looked in there computer for me to see what they did have in stock and thats when i saw items that i didn't even know what could be coming out. I only got a small glimpse but walmart already has the sku items for marvel muggs of jean gray cyclops and sabertooth.

My BBTS order has shipped (and enroute ... does happy dance!) but it does make me wonder about the ETA for Marvel Wave 6 and beyond.
I've gotten accustomed to seeing advance photos and vague estimates for future waves (which now seem comforting) but past wave 5 there is ..... silence.
<sounds of crickets chirping>
Hello? Hasbro??
Anyone?
Bueller??
Could we get a confirmation on some of the rumors for wave 6 that have been swirling around (more X-Men) ??
Could we get a nice vague availability estimate?
Please???

I have hopes, as we see the next wave of Star Wars drops in Feb with Darklighter, Bossk, etc., and that was previously reported by the Insider (along with Wave 9, too), though nobody at Hasbro has made a comment. You'd think with the holiday season, they'd be announcing the longevity of the line.

I would assume with recent Star Wars news. Marvel/TF/JOES news should be right around the corner. Maybe sometime in the next two weeks. Inbetween the holidays.

I'm not too worried with Might Muggs. Hasbro seems too be confident with kid friendly toys like Super Hero Squad than Marvel Legends. I'm sure Mighty Muggs will be fine. Hasbro is even trying to cash in with their Transformers.

In Jose's interview, they stated Muggs were easy and cheap to make. I'm not worried at all about Muggs.

I found the rest of wave 5 here at my local WM (Oklahoma) so they are arriving in this part of the country.
I will check Toys r us friday for Punisher and hopefully he will be there, they were clearing off a lot of shelf space last time I was there.
Hopefully Jigsaw will be there as well.

Received my Marvel Wave 5 (from BBTS) yesterday.... very satisfied.
I am not particularly worried about the Marvel line, just a tad annoyed that we're not hearing as much advance info (I guess we're just spoiled by how well Hasbro has handled the release info to this point).
