Hopefully I can get Rogue with no issue. I got all the others that I wanted but passed on Rogue and then regretted it after I finished the show.

Bummer for me.  I know for a fact I will not be able to be at a computer at 10am central time this Friday.

@yojoebro82 it's at 8am CT, no?

Am I the only that finds it funny that the store that was the most aggressive in clearancing-out the first wave is the one that gets the reissues as an exclusive (at least for now)? Granted, I don't think Wolverine was really impacted by that, but I definitely saw some cheap Rogues hanging around last December at the Targets around me.

They need to re-issue Goblin Queen.  She sold out pretty fast.

They also carried retro card Rogue and Gambit, which dipped to clearance prices at some point, then remaining stock went back up to regular price. I found that odd at the time, and now it seems like they're repeating that pattern.

LOL... glad I don't need these because 6 am for folks on the left coast is just mean.

Wish they would update Rogue's hair paint to include the red parts of her bangs that '97 introduced. I did that on mine and it looks so much better!

I begrudgingly bought them all when they first got released (except for the 2nd Magneto), but Goblin Queen is my favorite figure of either wave. That Wolverine has become my default Wolverine though as well, replacing any other version. I also loved the X-Cutioner but he's one I still see on pegs at different places.

Wolverine is damn near perfection. He's also the quintessential tiger stripe on my shelf. I don't know if I wanna preorder Rogue or not. Mine had shit paint and that's the only reason I'm considering getting a new one. But exclusivity, and almost needing to be an online thing, who says the next one won't be shit too?

Making these a Target exclusive is another brilliant idea from Hasbro 🤡 

Well...at least I already have them.

Target. Why'd it have to be Target?

The only recent exclusive that Target made difficult for me was the Tracksuit Mafia. And now that figure is showing up at friggin Ollie's. I've found everything else I need, either online or in store. I think exclusives are still annoying, but not the nightmare they used to be from any big box or specialty retailer. Fortunately, I don't need extras of '97 Wolvie or Rogue. But I do hope those who do need them are able to get them without hassle.
