    Default WFCS Wave 3 and 4 case breakdown. Only 3 Reflectors per case.

    So if you are like me and want a full set of 3 Reflectors you are going to need to be on the lookout for a freshly opened case of Wave 3 WFCS Deluxes.

    There are only 3 Reflectors in each case of Wave 3 Deluxes and he is not repeated in Wave 4. The full breakdown of the cases is as follows.

    Wave 3

    3x Red Alert
    3x Reflector
    2x Brunt
    (subject to change)

    Wave 4

    2x Sixgun
    2x Barricade
    2x Impactor
    2x Mirage
    (subject to change)
    So Reflector is essentially short packed given Hasbro is expecting people to each buy 3 of him.

    And understandably so. Retailers won't touch a case of 8 figures that are the same. Sucks, but such is life.

    Maybe Hasbro might do a solid case one day, or perhaps include Reflectors in future revision waves?

    Given I don't have any interest in Red Alert or Brunt... do I pre-order a case do avoid chasing them down and just selling the others for whatever I can? Given how awful local distribution can be, it's probably the easiest option..

    Why would people buy 3 if they are 100% identical? Is it a matter of 3 for the sake of having 3?

    Because 1 turns into a "this-is-a-space-cannon-because-we-said-so" while 3 combine to form a camera.

    Ah right.

    Gotta admit "this-is-a-space-cannon-because-we-said-so" does have its appeal in description... less so in pics.

    I imagine there will be a 3 pack at some stage...

    However I could imagine waiting for it, only to be in toy colours?

    This'll be a BBTS job for me I think.

    Wonder if major retailers here will shun wave 4 if they end up with shelf warming wave 3 Red Alerts & Brunts.
