I read about this at TNI, but saw them tonight at my local Wal-Mart. I also had read that Mutt was included in this display, but they must have been bought up before I got to them. What I did see left was:

case 1
Stormshadow v2 (with double peg stand; blue eyes/brown eyebrows)
Snake Eyes v2
Flint v1 (not fixed mold)
Beachhead

case 2
Snow Serpent
Firefly
Snowjob
Stalker

These were hanging on the side of the endcap, one over the other, and are green in color.

I don't believe Mutt is included in this display. I saw one of these just after it was put out, still had brown cardboard sleeves around each of the four pegs of figures in the display. None of the figures had been bought yet and there was no Mutt. I work next door to this Wal Mart and check it every weekday and I know for a fact that the other 8 figures were not peg warming prior to this display so there was definitely no Mutt.

They put these things in the weirdest places though, at this Wal Mart the display was in the girls toy aisle. Another Wal Mart across town they never put out the display but have been putting out figures from the display on the normal pegs.

I was happy I could pick up two Snow Serpents, since the only other one I'd ever seen went to my nephew. Strangely enough several days after I first saw this display put out, there was still one Snow Serpent sitting there. Thought for sure those would go faster than that, but maybe nobody spotted the display.

Yep we got in two of these sidekicks last week. Our toy manager put them on the pegs as well. No Mutt.

My walmart got these in and there was in fact a lone Mutt included. I thought wave 10 had hit and I had missed everything but the Mutt, but Carnage717 said that he is included in this "filler" wave.

This came in two weeks ago locally, just sits on the shelf taking up space since it appears the people who wanted them took the pludge to online/sclaper sources. And yes one lone mutt in the bunch is what I have seen too.

At one WM they just put the fig's on the pegs with the other Joe's, didn't even bother with the sidekick display box. And instead of a lone Mutt, there was a lone BAT in the assortment. Another WM had the sidekick display, but it was in the back aisle, by the toy cars.

Yeah, these figures were just mixed in on the pegs at my Wally World today.

Haven't seen hide nor hair of Wave 10, 11 or 12 at retail around here. Kind of sad.

This one is actually kind of good, especially for the many people who had trouble finding Flint v1 or came in late when some of the figures were going for $25+ on Ebay. It sounds weird, but one of the figures I see warming from these displays will be the Snow Serpents.

The Walmart in my town has these up, beside the SW figures, on the opposite end of the action figure aisle from where the rest of the Joe stuff is, and they are filled with wild bills, spirits, bazookas, and snow jobs. I nabbed the two snow serpents out of them, and then checked the normal spot, and while it was thick with the figures named above the other day, it's now thick with python patrol officers and tiger force flints. It seems like, and this is conjecture on my part, that the stuff that came in these sold pretty well, then someone came along and filled them up with the pegwarmers from the normal spot, and the normal spot got filled with backstock.

Now my head hurts.

maybe in your neck of the woods, but some of these figures it has taken around 2 months to move the last wave out for new waves. And we get the same old stuff again. Even scalpers arent picking these up.

rotting pegs. most of the walmarts here will be wastelands untill the shopping rush hits and parents actully buy some. the older figs here were pretty easy to get. Flints and SE's were just hanging around on pegs. So This means no new waves untill dec.
wonderfull.

Maybe but without the revision case I wouldn't have gotten :mutt: Mutt.
Still no wave 10 though.
