Hey gang!
So, to my delight I found Series 6 on the shelf at one of our local Wal-Marts (Kennewick, WA). Sorry for the pic, it was taken on my camera phone and enlarged.

Happy hunting!
P.S.- Oh yeah, I didn't buy any... I have too many people to buy Christmas presents for, and only so much money! :(
<edit from bunjee>
UPCs from bottom of each booster, these may not help if the store hasn't scanned them into their system yet.

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
He paused, and then said in a deep voice,
"This is the Master-Ring, the One Ring to rule them all.
This is the One Ring lost many years ago,
to the great weakening of its maker's power.
Now, he greatly desires to have it again,
- but he must NOT get it"
From The Lord of the Rings JRR Tolkien...
and even more to the point of this wonderful addiction...

How are we doing, volume-wise?
Is there only one set per store, like the ill-fated Wave Four? Or are there many many sets per store like the omni-present Wave Five?

I'll likely check a few stores on my way home, but I'll likely either order online or just wait a month, sicne that's usually when the Wal-Marts and Targets in the area get most HS shipments.

There are 7 Walmarts & Targets between work and home, also there are 3 TRU ($13/pack feh), so I'll report back in a few hours with my findings. I've checked two Targets so far, with no luck. Oh btw, the stores mentioned are between SB & LA county line areas in So. Cal.

I was so happy to read that House Mouse will get her shipment tomorrow and will ship them out to Indiana first :wink: either tomorrow or Wednesday.
I only ordered two sets of wave 6 , but I also orderd some more Romans(x2), Aubriens and Greeks.
I'll get more wave 6 commons later.

Just got a call from Bunjee. She wanted me to post the following.
The Lynnwood, WA Wally World has (1) set of Wave 6 and one set of Wave (1)Hello all. Yeah, I had Hahnarama post so that any Lynnwood nearbys might be able to stop in and get the other set. They may have more in the warehouse, the shelves are stuffed at this store. If you don't see it on the shelf, make sure you look up above, that is where it was at my store. The HS area was filled with MS, Heroes of Laur (still) Wave 1 and a couple Wave 2. When I had them bring down the Collection 6 boosters, they put the second set that was there down on the shelf because I told them people would be coming for it.
When I took it up to the register, it didn't ring up, I let them know it had just come in that morning. They used one of the other expansions upc's to ring it up, but here are the UPC's from Collection 6:
Heroes of Durgeth: 0653569201922 (walmart uses the leading zero, other stores may not
Shades and Orcs: 0653569201923
Archers and Kyrie: 0653569201924
Zombie Horde: 0653569201925
The CE (European Conformity) logo is not covered on this Collection.
Shades of Bleakwoode is spelled as Bleakewoode and Bleakwoode on both the outside of the package, and on the card, I'm sure this will be addressed in the re-issue but it stands on this production run.
Now that I have these in my hands, I have to say that the colors just pop on everyone. Lots of use of silver, gold and copper metallic paints, and Kee-Mo-Shi's wand is tipped in a metallic green. Although the shades are the least complicated paint (double wash of teal and gray over the white plastic) I really like the sculpts.
Ok, enough yapping, I need to tidy up so I can stare at my new toys without distraction.

I'm going to have to check the one closest to home tomorrow. They didn't have any Sunday, so I'm guessing maybe a truck would be in today, on shelves late tonight. They had a tone of small packs on the shelf late last week, but throughout the weekend the numbers were dwindling. Probably down to about 3-4 full sets from at least 7 on Thursday last week.

I hear ya Zincdust. That's why I went ahead and ordered a bunch of stuff from HouseMouse for a Christmas present to me from my wife.
When she asked me what I wanted for Christmas the other day, I said, "I already ordered my presents from you and thanks by the way."
She's like, "So I get to wrap them and you have to wait 'til Christmas morning to open them, right?"
"Ahhh...that would be a no. As soon as Mr. Brown delivers them, I'm first going to drool all over the packages and then I'm going to open them."
I've never ordered that much HS stuff before and I just want to savor the moment for a few seconds before I lose my mind and rip open the packs.
If I told her exactly what I wanted, I'd get a bunch of My Little Pony's and Playschool People.

I stopped by Wal-Mart in central IL, and there was no wave 6 yet. But there were about 6 full sets of wave 5 just sitting on the shelves. I already have enough roborats and deathstalkers to keep me happy. (Didn't anyone tell these makers that Wave 5 has more uniques than any other wave ever made?).
Well, I'm worried they'll keep wave 6 in the back of the store until these wave 5s sell, but the way the shelf stocker looked at me while I was rifleing through the stacks and stack of wave 5 stuff looking for anythin new might make them think they'd better get the new stuff out there.
It was really pathetic, since the shelves were all practically bare from christmas shoppers. The wave 5 stuff is just collecting dust. (well I guess I could use a few more deathreavers . . .)

Yeah, so true.
It's the rush you get as you race down the aisles, knocking people out of the way to get to the HS section and either experiencing the elation and joy of finding the sought after goods, or... experiencing the agony of defeat and cursing yourself for wasting more time and more gas...yet again!

Not to brag but I seriously think my addiction to heroscape has spread to unknowing customers.
Now that the semester has ended and I am unemployed (looking if anyone knows about a job :) ) Ive been reduced to checking every TRU, Wally World, Target and hobby store in the Greater Jackson MS metro area.
Well with the holliday shopping madness in full swing I've noticed alot of shelves being bare during peak shopping times.
The point: when I'm rifling through the heroscape section on a crowded isle I look like a madman searching for a pot of gold. Needless to say on more than one occasion I've seen a curious shopper pick up the heroscape boxes and raising an eyebrow.
If my foaming-mouthed madness-filled search for wave six has brought more people into the fold then so be it!! :twisted:

At lunch I hit 2 Targets and 1 TRU, nothing to be found, except a couple wave 1.
On the way home I hit 2 TRU, 4 Wal-marts, and 3 Targets in 2 hours and 20 minutes, not too bad if you ask me. Sadly, no Wave 6, but I did find the remain Wave 1&2 boosters that I needed, and I picked up some toothpaste & deodorant so it wasn't a complete waste.
I'll most likely make the same run tomorrow & Wednesday too. I'll post if I find any.
Oh yea, almost forgot, one of the Walmarts had and EOV set that looks like it's been riding around in somebodies trunk for a month. I bought it for a friend, sadly they only had one, or I would have bought more for all you out there craving one.

Bunjee - I'm going to kick you in the junk and take your stuff on Saturday. Oh wait, that only works with guys doesn't it? Crap! I guess I'll just have to admire them from afar.
:rofl: Whoa, there, fella! I never thought that I'd ever hear anyone jokingly threaten to kick anyone's "junk." I think I just woke up the neighbors laughing so loud!
I haven't gone to any stores today, on purpose. I'm so sure that my Wally and Targo will be behind in stocking their shelves that I'm going to wait at least one, maybe two more days before I tell the girlfreind that we are out of toilet paper. We actually have plenty of toilet paper, but I'm hiding it in the closet tonight... :D

I don't know if it's from a comedy show or not, all that I'm aware of is that it's a "G" version of a "R" word. I crack up also when people say that they are going to kick you in the package. I have no idea why, but they are the most rediculous words that somehow became synonyms for something entirely inappropriate, therefore making them insanely funny.

:? Yep, the UPCs I gave are from the bottoms of the boosters, but when the Walmart I bought them from scanned them, it came up "invalid item" meaning that when they were received the put them out on the shelves without running them into the system. They probably thought they were the same as the other boosters. :roll:
But, on the off chance that anyone could use them, I thought I'd get them in. I need to get them in the first post. :duh:

This is why sighting threads never seem to work. Everyone posts the fact that they didn't see anything and it clutters up the thread, and any acutal sightings get buried. This is a sightings thread. Please only post acutal sightings.
If you want to discuss your hunt for Wave 6, please do so in this thread.

The truly sad thing is, I have two sets of wave 6 in transit from Housemouse.
But there it was, on the shelf in WM. I felt it would have been unethical to leave it there all alone and defenseless.
The thing is, I can always bring back my HM expansions to WM for a return. Well, the unique heroes anyway . . . .
Seriously, when you see these zombies you will develop an insatiable, zombie-like appetite for them.

I get pretty good mileage, and there are 3 WM's within a few miles of my home and work, so I can easily check them.
Today I checked one, and I scored...
No, Not Wave 6, yet
but I found a WM that isn't glutted with Wave 5,
the shelf is almost bare, just a pack of MinuteMen and Wolves,
no Wave 5, and just waiting to get stocked!

I know some people don't like to see non-sightings in the sightings threads, but personally I think they're helpful: at least people in your area can figure out where not to go.
So I shall report that so far I have found nothing in the DC area. So far I've checked Wally's in Fair Oaks, Burke, Bowie, Laurel, Columbia, Arundel Mills, and Glen Burnie, TRU's in Fair Oaks, Columbia, and Annapolis, Target's in Fair Oaks and Bowie, and the K-mart in Bowie. Primarily overwhelming quantities of Wave 5, but quite a bit of Wave 1 at the Wallys', plus a teeny bit of Wave 4; a few straggling Flagbearers in Annapolis; and a castle here and there. Plus the expected MS's and VW's, of course.
So, at least AFA the DC area goes, it's a fine time to pick up those extra orcs and Romans you've been jonesing for, but a crappy time for finding Wave 6. <sigh>

I got 2 set of each common and the Hero pack. There's one hero pack left. *hugs Zombies*
Just got back from Rochester... that is all they have left is the Hero Pack. I have one of those comeing from Mouse House so I didn't need that. one, but I was hoping they had some commons in the back... no luck.
You know it takes a long time to drive 90 miles when you stop at every Target, Shopko, & Wal-Mart between Tree Town and Rochester.

I had not thought to look at Games by James (where I bought wave 1, other than the Heros). They tend to be a bit expensive and usually do not have just released stuff. I had not seen any at ShopKo South, Wal-Mart North, or Wal-Mart South. I have not stopped by TRU for a couple of weeks and have not been to ShopKo North in a couple of months.
That is a pretty long trip. Did you actually hit all of them? At least the weather has been nice. Still have to put up with the holiday shoppers, however.

Tried 3 different Targets today to no avail.
Finally found 1 Wave 6 set at Walmart in Cary, NC....Zombies! Woo hoo!
Just like Newb said, it wasn't in the computer. I forgot to bring a wave 5 pack up so the register gal took my word for it that they were $9.99.
Anyway, my question is this....why would they have only one pack of zombies??? How do the packs usually come? Should I suspect that there was a whole set there at some point and I just happened to get the last stragler?
If so, I am guessing one of my local HeroScapers cohorts beat me there! :evil:

So far, boxes come packaged with 1 of each booster so that means there was a whole set and you luckily found the zombies. I found a complete set and 1 booster of the Shades/Orcs Friday night at one Walmart.

I check the Independence, MO Target and Wal-mart on 39th street tonight...nada. I then checked the TRU on 40 highway and all they had was two packs of Hot Lava Death and that's it. I've noticed HS stuff getting picked over quite a bit this holiday season.
Anyway, I got tired of the search and ordered a set from HMG tonight, so there ends my search. Although I'll likely check again in a month or so just to pick up more commons.

Just went back by the Wally World on County Line in Jackson MS. They Had the heroes and the Zombies!!! (one of each) I picked them up to complete my collection of all four.
They still didnt show in the register when I went to pay for them but I told the lady the price (the correct one :twisted: ) and she rang them up for me!
They were mixed up in about 25 other boosters ranging from Jandar's to collection five so be sure and dig whenever you guys and gals are searching. Happy hunting and Merry Christmas!!

Toys R Us at Christiana, NOPE
TRU had one Tundra and a billion Flaggers
The Walmarts had quite a few Castles
Walmarts....I'm not familiar with those ones. Where are the rt 40 and 141 stores? I know the one in Elkton...it's where the Roy Rogers used to be. The others I'm not at all familiar with.

Don't sweat it Gary, I usually get only one of each, and have recentlt been going back to older waves and buying multiples of the commons, so they should still be intact over there.
I might just skip waves 3-5, and go right for more zombies and samurai archers.
I want to make an entire game based around zombies! I can't wait for the Marvel scape to come so I'll have buildings for them to hide in!
The zombies are the first characters I can justify buying more than 3 packs of. Everyone except the drones (3), gets a 2 set limit.
No double heroes either.

Too true. I wouldn't have Nerak if it wasn't for this rule of thumb. I bought the Wave 5 uniques and didn't tell my friend who was looking for me before he bought them as well. I was going to just return them, but then Songbird was kind enough to trade me them for a spare Nerak, making him the final unit missing from my collection at the time.

Well, I just picked up all four packs of Wave Six at the Wal-Mart on 13th South 3rd West near Down Town SLC. There were only the four boosters on the shelf. And wouldn't you know it, when I went to check out, they weren't even in their system yet.
This sounds just like some of the other tales I've heard in this thread.

I was at Wal-Mart in League City tonight and found three out of the four packs of Wave 6! For some odd reason, the one that was missing was the Kyrie/Archers pack. But I snagged the other three!
As is usual, they weren't in the system when we checked out.
While my wife and daughter went into Sears a few minutes later, my son and I stayed out in the car and played zombies vs. ghosts. :)

Yes, I've been driving... and then I got to thinking... all that gas money could have just shipped them from House Mouse games...

Not to rub in the pain, well, maybe a little. :D If it makes you feel better I counted wrong and will probably be doing a few stops at my local places. Difference is that I can hit two Targets, two TRU's and a Walmart in a single 25 mile loop if I start at my house. The only one likely to have it is Walmart and it is the one that is 12 miles away, so I really prefer to order from HouseMouse.

But you have to admit as an adult there is something that makes you feel all gitty and like a little kid again when you turn that corner a low and behold the item you have been searching for is there on the shelf waiting for you. Sometimes angled in such away it allmost looks like it is saying hello.
You then pick up your walking pace reach down and grab it off the shelf and snuggle with it or grind your pelvis against it in the middle of the store.
Then there also can be the cursing that can be heard through out the store if it isn't there. As children in the toy section hudddle in fear as the tall guy with a long goatee is shaking his fist in the air yelling bad words at the gods.
You just don't that kind of satisfaction from ordering on line.

And that is fine but then you asked someone on the front page to post all the places it had been found so you would not have to do the research. You yourself said it is over twenty pages and yet you asked for others to do it for you. This is a give and take community Hoss.... I appreciate you hanging out here with us but do not expect that everything is going to be handed to you on a platter so you can just grab the info and go.

Its been so busy around my city for Christmas that I'm not even really sure if my stores didn't get Wave 6 yet or if they did and it sold out.
Seriously, my Toys R Us has NO Master Sets left and NO castles left. They had dozens of both months ago. Similar thing with Target. I suppose that's good though; HeroScape is selling!
A little off topic side note: I checked the Elk Grove Wal-mart today, and if any of you are missing Wave 4 stuff and are near that area, they just got in 4 boxes (yep) of Zanafor's, minus one Elves/gladiator pack which I took.

Thanks, and I am sure to have a blessed Christmas as I found myself two sets of wave 6 at the Walmart in Abingdon, MD. Now there is only a Hero pack left.
Of course they weren't in the system yet and the people in line behind me were not too happy about the delay.
As to the questioon from another post, yes, all the sightings were at Walmarts except for ones that were at gaming stores. I'm afraid you'll have to go back and re-read the thread yourself to find which sightings were which as I have seven packs of figures to open.

found at the 900 East (4700 So). SLC, Utah Wal-Mart, 12/22. Four other Wallys scouted earlier this week showed nothing.
There were three cardboard display cases of Wave Six on the shelf. I took the only complete set and two add'l boosters, leaving two W. 6 heroes and one Zombie pack, plus one wave 4 & 5 pack each.
I've only been in and out of this thread...has anyone else seen multiple packs of Wave Six at a single store?

one complete set found and purchased at wal-mart in Eau Gallie, FL. no other walmarts, targets, or TRU's in the area have them yet. intresting to note yesterday they had a few wave 5 packs, today they had two wave 4 packs, a crap load more wave 5 packs, and one set of wave 6 mixed in in the back... seems like they're (wallys) trying to get rid of the old stuff before they let too many wave 6 sets out...

One complete set found at the Cary Walmart in NC! Last night I tried to get them, but b/c they weren't in the system, and b/c i happened to go to a stickler for the rules, they kept them until they could enter them in the system! I got em now though, and I'll probably check some of the other local Walmarts so I'll give you central NC folks a heads up if I find anything.

I found 1 zombie expansion at the WM in White Lake, MI. Sorry guys but I had to buy it. At least we know there are some in our state!
By the way I also checked TRU in Pontiac, the Meijer's in Waterford and White Lake, and the Target in Hartland. None of them had any Wave 6.
This morning I found a complete set of wave 6 at the Wa-Mart in Taylor, MI. I bought the set, but I would check other Wal-Marts around the area. They typically get them in around the same time.

I know this is not the Tundra sighting thread but I just found one at TRU in Fontana. They have a boatload of everything but wave 6. They had only one TT...but not anymore!

Found in CO. It's Your Move has them but they were missing the Heroes Pack and they are all priced at $14.95. I got one set of Zombies but left the rest since I want to save some $ and get them all at once. Wal Mart & Target still don't have them out as far as I can find.

Found the Gruts/Shades in Minneapolis, MN. A Walmart had accidently set out a set too early. The store manager stated they are supposed to all be on the shelves on Sunday.

Hahnarama, a stand-in godfather... I'm out of it for a little while, everybody gets delusions of grandeur.
So are you standing in the godfather? Which godfather's body are you in? Hero's or James Brown's?

First DFW Sighting????
Found a few at the Walmart at Lake Forest and 720 in McKinney. From what I could tell they recieved 3 cases of wave 6 (there were 3 sets of ghosts and orcs). I gobbled up the rest, but there is hope in the DFW area now.

And thus, hope for Houston! Yes, I know, but Finrod's stomping grounds seem to be in some bizarre alternate reality where stores get Heroscape when they should and don't over-order wave 5 after everyone already has all the wave 5 they need.
Thankfully, I have learned to be patient.

Umm... there's no TRU in Patchogue. There's only one down the street from me in Sayville.
They do have 10 TT's there though, full sets of the Flag Bearers, and they had a 1st Edition Heroscape.

:lol: Well... most of the Wal-marts DO still have a TON of wave 5... and wave 4... and wave 1... But that ONE Wal-Mart where I found the one set of wave 6 now has NO expansions in stock whatsoever... so that's the one to keep checking!

well I was able to score another 4 pack from the same walmart this morning, after one more zombie set I am done. So any DFW'ers that are still scratching the itch, let me know and as long as they continue to put them out at this walmart, I will pick them up on behalf of others, and meet with you to hook ya up. I think Rychean still needs a couple of commons, so he gets firsties, but heros and any others he doesn't need, just let me know.

Wisinger,
I am very much in need of one set of wave 6. I have been looking for them but have yet to even find an empty box that wave 6 came in : ( I live in Dallas but willing to meet you where you wish and more than happy to bring cash. I thank you for your time and hope to hear from you soon about wave 6.
God Bless and Keep Faith;

Last Thursday I called around to my local TRU's, Walmarts, and Targets and found 1 Walmart in central Cincinnati with 1 pack of Zombies and 1 pack of Kyries and Archers. After much agony of waiting in line, finding out the UPC's weren't in their system, waiting for the toy dept. employee to do a price check, waiting for the customer's checks behind me to not clear and their transaction to be suspended, and then waiting for the cashier to hunt n peck the keys on her register to type in the price and item descriptions for this wave 6, I finally emerged from Walmart, some 40 min later :x, with 2 packs of wave 6 @ $5.96 each!!!! :D I doubt that is the price they were supposed to be, but after the incompetent employes I had to deal with, I kinda felt like Walmart should have been paying me to be there.
Now who is the silly person in Cincinnati who only bought the Hero pack and Shades/ orcs? My boyfriend thanks you. :P
FYI- this Walmart had only 1 wave 5 pack left and nothing else, so I'm sure they will be restocking with more wave 6 as soon as they get it.

From my understanding these will be hitting Wal-Marts sometime soon so I can wait. Would I like a set of wave 6? Sure, but I also understand that this is a game and if I can wait I will be getting at least 2 (if not 3) more packs then by ordering from HMG. So people ask why I do not order from HMG? I will not pay the mark up that HMG charges. I understand that people will and that is fine, but please respect the rest of us as well that do not want to pay the asking price that HMG charges.
So wait I must but also let it be known that should anyone else need a set of wave 6 and I can help, please let me know. I will ask only what I pay and will be more than happy to give you the receipt as well. I think that with more of us working together, we will get our set of wave 6 before having to go the way of on-line stores and paying their mark up.
God Bless and Keep Faith;

Has anyone found wave 6 yet who wants to trade for a dice tower or two?
