I wish, but Hasbro clarified and said it is in fact fall 2020. They claim there will be some stuff between now and then, like the exclusives and 2 packs. Hopefully the exclusives are fan channel and not just gamestop.

Yes, I know it's bonkers for them to have said this, but the main Lightning Collection Wave 4 is officially slated for Fall 2020 with a slight price increase to $21.49 per figure. They have also informed us that they DO plan to have other releases to tide us over in the interim. We don't know what that means, but very likely it means more store exclusives and 2-packs. That's pure speculation from me, but it makes absolutely the most sense.

Man, if a small increase in price means a more complete package, then I'm all for it. That said, with the Fall 2020 timeframe, this probably means some of the Rangers I've been waiting for won't be getting figures for a long time(unless I get lucky with exclusives or packs).
Very tempted to get Blaze, but will see as Beast Morphers continues to air. |

What could be the reason for it? Poor sales? It just literally makes no sense for them to wait a year for wave 4. Last edited by Kamen Rider Lucha; 10-27-2019 at 07:07 PM.. |

Just remember. Wave 3 was originally slated for Q1 2020. Then a December 1st 2019 release, then they started turning up in the wild a day ago. Chances are, the wait won't actually be that long.

Even so, let's assume the best case scenario like this one; where they start showing up 2 months early. That still puts them around July at earliest, which is still -very- far off and a much larger gap than we're used to. Whatever the case is, it still sticks out as odd.

Thinking it over, it’s possible that the exclusive figures are selling better than expected, so they’re shifting their sales strategy more in that direction. Maybe? |

All the talks of wave 4 yet my local Targets are still stuck on wave 1 and my local Walmarts barely have wave 2 in stock.

That interview read like questions being fed into Hasbro's website AI chatbot lol. Was the person who was interviewed actually exist.
