Release and Distribution

[edit]

Like I just commented on Chopsaw's wavemate Windcharger, does his unusually sparse distribution warrant mention? were these guys spotted at retail in the US, or just the sparse croppings-up in the UK? Is he a UK exclusive?

-Time Traveller

They were found at retail in Canada and were eventually found at Ross and suchlike places in the States. So no, it wasn't a UK exclusive, nor was it never released in the US. --Detour 19:37, 11 October 2011 (EDT)
Both he and Windcharger have shown up at retail, but in limited amounts. Currently he's appearing in second-hand chains like Ross and T.J. Maxx. --ItsWalky 19:38, 11 October 2011 (EDT)
