They are, the problem is they're not in the system yet. All stores will technically sell them to you, it's just a matter of finding a member of staff who will actually take the initiative and do it. I had to have them key them in by hand to get them sold to me. It took about 2-3 extra minutes, but I was a lucky one, some have been turned away and the figures have been pulled from the pegs.
It was explained to me that it's due to the changeover from bio cards to comics. They're the same series of toys, but the assortment numbers on the packaging are different and so are the UPCs, they're not sequential between the waves, just in the same wave. (For example Air Raid, Breakdown, Dead End and Offroad all have basically the same UPC and they're one number off from each other to differentiate. If you compare them to Wave 1, the last few digits are drastically different.)
In fact, Dragstrip with the comic is starting to show up at stores and he's not in the system, while Wave 1 Dragstrip with the bio card is and does sell just fine.
It's a very stupid system and causes a list of problems for customers.
