The final wave of Siege Micromasters got a fair bit of distribution in my area, mostly around the Xmas shopping season. I personally saw Frenzy and Ratbat on the shelves a number of times, along with the Battle Squad, which I probably saw just a bit more often, to be honest. I chalk that up to the fact that Soundwave's buddies are probably the most sought-after Micromasters of the series. They're A-list characters, like Soundwave himself. The G1 Micromasters were never even featured in the original cartoon. Laserbeak and Ravage from wave 2 of Siege were also more scarce, but they were around, and often if I couldn't find them, I saw their wave mates Red Heat and Stakeout at least. I've also seen the Battle Masters and the Deluxe Class figures from wave 5 several times. In fact, I continue to see them even now. I only saw Apeface once, and never saw Siege Astrotrain on shelves. Siege wave 5 was probably one of the better tail end waves in the past 10 years in terms of in-store availability.
