They're supposed to be available one day at Walmart.com, if you can wait that long. Otherwise it will be just ebay sellers for now.

I got wave 3 for $21 each and free shipping. Never have to drive around looking for them and being disappointed by Walmart every time. $21? Worth every cent.
Me too, man! Best of luck to everyone when they start hitting at stores!
Yeah, I can wait.
This is the only TFA figure whose foot-holes can fit on a figure stand. None of the others in the BS line can. Shame as they all aren't too bad otherwise.
Doesn't come with a lightsaber though so hope some of you out there have spares for those who wanna display him with it.

I have ummm, quite a few of the FO stormie, and its about 50/ 50 which ones will fit s stand. I know it takes 30 data points to get a chi score, normal curve or standard distribution and I am not to that point yet. But a pattern is emerging and that patterns is that Hasbro is NOT practicing any kind of quality control on those foot peg hole drill operations. They really should work on that.
My Rey definitely cannot use the stand cause her peg hole is too small. Kylo Ren fits the stand perfectly. I think Poe's doesn't really fit either. I actually haven't tried any of my Stormtroopers though. Here's Ren on a black Star Wars stand. Don't even know how I came across some black Star Wars stands. Thought they were all silver.
That's what she said!
I don't care much for those stands, much prefer the Saga 2 versions.

I don't get why he doesn't come with a lightsaber.....it's not a spoiler, we see him in the commercials. Rey on the other hand.....
I gotta say I really like this figure. His jacket looks a lot more yellow in pictures, so I was surprised how tan it is. I still have to weather it, though.
Thanks July, I hate diaper crotch and mid torso joints. Thinking about what I can do with the 5poa version and this guy...

Aside from the lightsaber, how would that figure differ from what this is?
Space plunger?
Snow on his legs? I don't know, I'm just trying to think of all the ways Hasbro might try to milk that mold.
Poor Finn, this guy is starting to peg warm hard. I went to another WM and they had a bunch of Finn, a few Poe and no Rey's. He really needed a lightsaber to boost his sales.
Uh, send some over to this side of the country.
I'd be willing to, but funds are tight on my end so I could probably only help a few scummers at a time.

I'm still shocked and confused at the amount detail and effort that went into Finns gun. I'm not complaining, I appreciate it..........but....lol wtf? The gun is fantastic(?)
It really looks great, and I'm pretty sure he never even uses it in the film.
Nope, he takes a Stormtrooper rifle.
No reason to hurt yourself thinking about it, all you gotta do is look at how many times they repainted Captain America!
This is Hasbro after all, they don't need help with repaints.
Finn: the first on-screen character who makes it a point to keep OT collectibles in mint condition.
Yeah I distinctly remember him firing it, just couldn't tell what part. Thanks for clearing it up
This is the gun he is firing in Starkiller base. It shoots blue bolts.
I've seen it three times and I can't remember him firing a gun at Starkiller base. He has that gun in Maz's castle, the inexplicably loses is before they emerge from the rubble, causing him to use the lightsaber. Then when he's running through the battle he grabs a stormtrooper rifle.
I'm not saying you're wrong, I just don't remember it. Can anyone give me a more specific scene? I pretty much just set the gun aside but I'd rather give it back to him since it's so well done.
Damn I just saw this last night for the 5th time but wasn't specifically looking for this detail.
Spoiler:
Just saw it for the 4th time myself. And you are absolutely right, and he does fire it at that point, too.
He is also seen with it
He doesn't "inexplicably lose" it, it is confiscated by the Stormtroopers while he, Han, and Chewie are briefly captured.
When they come out of the rubble, he expressely says, "I need a weapon!" and doesn't have the gun, even though in the scene right before he still has it. The Stormtrooper takes the lightsaber from him.
Ah, you're probably right...I've only seen it once. I thought all three of them were disarmed by the Stormtroopers but, now that you mention it, I do remember him saying that line at some point. My apologies.
What I would really like to know, concerning both Finn's blaster and the Stormtroopers/Snowtroopers/ and Phasmas blasters is why some of them have a stock and some of them don't. Poe has essentially the same blaster as Finn at the beginning of the film, but his has a stock.
No worries, sir. It was just something I took notice of on my third watch. I was trying to figure out how to add a strap to the gun so I can have him wear it like he does on screen and I just noticed it sort of disappears during the Maz scene. I'll have to pay more attention during the Starkiller scene on my next watch, but I was pretty sure he only has the lightsaber at that point.
