40th anniversary figures wave 2

[Jamieh72]

Hi all
Has anyone been able to get any of these? I had two preorders with two dealers ID toys and Tosche traders since May for complete sets.
I had an e mail from Tosche in the week saying that the entire run had been snapped up by American dealers, and Hasbro advised them that they would fulfill the order in the Autumn when they do another production run.

I presume that the wave 2 figures that are currently going for silly money on eBay had been preordered from dealers in the US.

It looks like another 3 month wait, if I am lucky".
