Nope. And the two carded samples I have very well could be mock ups. Hard to tell since the cards are all the same for the dg figures. So the carded samples I posted should NOT be taken as an indicator as to how far along these are or are not. It'd be different if they had their own card art etc. But alas...

I'm doubting the repaints are ever going to make it to retail at this point. :x:-(

Seems like a toss up at the moment. You never know.

Why is it that once Dollar General finally has something good to offer, they are impossible to find? I still run into those crappy explosion backed figures but never the new stuff.

I think these are pegged for a multi-year release like the explosion series. They'll probably hit again next year for the movie. If the variants hit they'll drop after that.

So they are carded on the wave one cards?
If that is so then I would not be surprised if Hasbro used the same cards to save money.
I am still sticking to my prediction that Family Dollar will get them. ;-)

So far NADA on that prediction here in CO where FD's outnumber DG's 10 to 1.... cause haven't heard or seen them at the three DG's we have here in Denver metro area.

I really hope they do come out.

I really want that T'gin-zu repaint of Storm Shadow to round out my Ninja Force.
