Just found this today, "German Artillery Crewman, Lt. Klaus Bucholtz". Is this guy new?? I don't think I have seen him before.

Yep, that guy is new. Seems to be an east-coast release thus far! There are a bunch of posts about this figure in the 21c Finds & Discussion thread, I believe.

Consider yourselves lucky. So far, it looks like our WM distribution centers only have gotten the first 6 figures.

OK T, thanks for that info. Sorry about the glare in that pic, I was in a bit of a hurry when I snapped it, I'll try to get a better shot of this guy if Grunt1 wants one for the archive.

I see they still haven't run spellcheck, though.

I don't know what the deal is with Tracker! I checked another two stores today, and at least six different stores over the last week. I don't even see him up on ebay!

Someone said he wasn't released I think.
Maybe hes in the same shipping container as the Pak40 Hanomags.

So there releasing new ones we weren’t expecting but not the last one on the back of the card? I thought someone once said they saw tracker. Oh well. I must say I’m glad I found the ones I have but I’m not to happy with the way this wave of figures have been released. It also seems that since Christmas, and all the big sell offs, XD stock at my local stores is in the toilet.

I found Bucholtz and Tracker a couple weeks ago. Looked like Tracker was 1 per case. I found 2 Bucholtz but only the single Tracker.

"Tracker" has been around these parts for a while, I know I have a couple of him packed away somewhere, and I'm pretty sure some of the WM stores in the AO still have a few.

I just posted a Wanted notice on the Buy/Sell/Trade forum, if any established board member has an extra one they want to unload. I'll look for any replies on that thread.
