Hasbro have commented on the undersupply of Power of the Primes Wave 2 at retail and online. Posting on the official Transformers Facebook page, Hasbro says that:
Hi Transformers fans! We’ve heard that Wave 2 of Power of the Primes sold out relatively quickly, but they aren’t extinct yet. Consumers can expect to see these out again in stores and online in the U.S. this Summer.
This is assuring news for those who have been trying to find wave 2 of Power of the Primes but have only found frustration. It is particularly important as wave 2 features several highly desired characters, including the remaining two Dinobots, Snarl and Sludge, and two of the Terrorcons, Hun-Gurrr and Rippersnapper.
Importantly, we’d like to bring this to your attention so you do not overspend on adding these figures to your collection. However, we’d also counsel caution, because while this is Hasbro’s intention, it also depends on retailers carrying the assortment – so if you do find a good deal, do not hesitate.

I saw wave 2 at my local Walmart yesterday, the last time I saw them in retail was February 19th when I bought the wave.

Need to check out Target, since Wal Marts around here stopped carrying voyagers for the Studio lines.

A Walmart I just visited over the weekend is now loaded with wave 1 voyagers. LOADED…like over 10 cases worth. Grimlock will maybe sell eventually…but Starscream…ugh!
Fenrys
good, ive been thinking about grabbing elita and moonracer lately

Yeah, deluxes and voyagers have been hitting for a few weeks here in Ohio. Voyagers not so much in Cincinnati, but ive seen the deluxes a few times.

It would make sense to reship the wave 2 voyagers since wave 3 and 4 deluxes "focus" on them with the Terrorcon limbs looking to be plentiful and Novastar coming for Elita.

I've seen the deluxes. I have not seen any of the voyagers in my immediate area.

Wave 2 Voyagers are hitting pretty hard (at least in my area of Washington). Couple days ago I saw at least 6 cases of Hun-Gurr/Elita1 at two different Walmarts in my town.

I can confirm the voyagers getting re-released. Out here in Vegas, a few of our Walmarts have gotten full endcaps of voyager waves one, two and three together. Glad to hear the deluxe wave is getting back out as well.

Here is the picture of the Wave 2 case…

Weeks ago, hasbro confirmed their knowledge that POTPs wave 2 was due to be re-released to retail stores later in the summer…well, it looks like they have kept their word.
I'm in Springfield mo, and I found a case of wave 2…thinking it was wave 3.
The employee allowed me to have a look inside and there was wave 2….
So, it looks like the hunt is back on for these elusive figures…
…now if they can just re-release the Voyagers.
I'll post a pic shortly.

Wave 2 deluxes in stock on HTS at the moment. Have at em.

Managed to snag 2 Snarls and 2 Sludges early this morning when Amazon briefly had them in stock. They should ship in a box since there are 4 of them, along with a couple other figs I bought. Fingers crossed they don't get banged up, they'll be here Wednesday.
Scourgatron
Well, yeah.
You gotta search by case assortment from UPC, too.
GizmoTron
Yes you know that but for those that don't it will be hard to use that app or Brickseek without first knowing what the DCPI is first.
Scourgatron
Huh? I know that.
