Given that we've received two affirmatives, I'd say we have a fairly good chance at seeing them this month. Now I really believe they are coming out soon! I'm so glad I got in Marvel Attacktix (after having previously vowed to never ever buy anything related to Marvel!). I'm looking forward to Marvel now more than SW anyway, so SW can wait. Now I got something to do with my birthday money I got at the beginning of the month 36 years old and I'm still buying toys with my birthday money...

Alright since this is seemingly confirmed I guess this is good news, although it doesn't make sense why it would be Marvel first. It has been confirmed that the new sets will ship before the hiatus but it doesn't make sense that it wouldn't be TF and SW before Marvel. When you guys called did you also ask Hasbro about the other lines, if so what did they say and if not, could someone do it?

Wow... I'm hopeful that the Marvels will be coming this week, but don't want to get my hopes up too much. I can't count how many times I've ventured into a toy aisle since April only to be dissappointed again. I want Kingpin... for some reason I've always had a soft spot in my heart for him. I KNEW IT! I always saw you eyeing fat guys lustily when we go out to lunch! ;D

During Radar's interview with Brian he stated that they wouldn't stagger the sets anymore. With that thought, I would believe that we should see all of the newer series and not just one universe. Posted by superflytnt on Today at 5:31pm

Man, I have one booster figure and that Ghost Rider Mega to collect and they shipped it out?
I saw the paper pn the space (they're rearranging the toy section at my Wal-Mart) and all they have is the Marvel and Star Wars packs.

Wal-mart and Target? Where's the TRU love? I get 10% off there! Ehh... either way I'll be there on saturday, which is one day after the stockboy in a future comment said Wal-mart's putting them up so I'll see if I can find anything... though we still haven't gotten the new 30th anniversary Saga figures (been out everywhere else for a month) and I think we may have had one box of Ghostrider Megas for two days and never got another one... point is we'll get them eventually and I'll see if what's true for Wal-mart's true for TRU.

For what it's worth - the estimated arrival date for Entertainment Earth on SW5, TF2, and M2 Starter Sets is now September instead of August.

Not to get everyone too excited, but I did speak with a stock boy from Walmart today. He said that he believes they have the newer series' in stock. He said that they are to be placed tomorrow (Friday).
Well see if this holds true or not. I am not going to get overly excited. Been a year already of getting my hopes up. Fool me once shame on you Hasbro. Fool me 600,241 times, well, shame on me I guess.

Although Hasbro said it will be one week for the second series (and some people are adding that it will possibly be today!?" we'll just have to see weather or not Hasbro will keep their word on it. I just hope we see the new figures soon!

Something is definitely up, because I checked out my local Walmart yesterday and found that they have made lots of empty space on the shelves and have organized the toy section altogether. I'm expecting that space to be filled up with lots of goodies, and pretty darn soon!!
