Even though Forces of Destiny are not my personal collecting bag, there’s something about walking into a store and seeing a pristine Star Wars display that brings a smile to my face. Click through for pics of the display.
File under “Miracles Do Happen.” Our resident artist and lead t-shirt engineer, streams, chimes in with a store report from The Sunshine State. Click through for the details.
The Jedha Revolt 4-pack has dropped in price on Walmart.com, and is now $18.74. Yes, we know it’s not Vintage Collection super-articulated goodness, but while we may generally frown upon the 5POA figure line, this looks to be a good looking set at a very fair price. Now leave me alone while I buy this so I can add Forest Whitaker to my collection.
He did it again for the first time for the third time. Our own CJ (Dustin to you city folk) has used his keen detection skills (and limitless time) to uncover some more SKUs for the frustratingly unavailable Walmart exclusive 3.75” Black Series line. Click through to take a gander at what he found. Or just look at the images below if you’re exceedingly lazy. But you’ll be sorry. Because there are two more figures that I couldn’t fit in there!
Proof that the combination of time and effort can accomplish anything, our own CJ (Dustin) has once again kicked over the Walmart rock and uncovered 8 new SKUs for their exclusive Black Series line. Four you already knew, but four you didn’t (but could probably guess). Click through for the details.
Our own Dustin (CJ to most of you) has done some URL manipulation and uncovered that the URL’s for most if not all the Walmart exclusive Black Series figures for wave 2 and beyond (including the possibility of a certain shiny caped Stormtrooper commander). Hit the read more link to see what he uncovered.
Not surprising.
I found this little gem while scouring the internets this morning. Location unknown, but if you’re interested, it wouldn’t hurt to swing by your nearest ‘big blue’ retailer and see if they screwed up as well.
Happy hunting!
Our own BIGJIM, who has apparently forgotten his front page credentials, alerts us that the Deluxe Black Series 6” Biker Scout with Speeder Bike is available on Walmart.com for $10. In other news, the 6” line is exceeding expectations.
Walmart is sporting a spiffy post-holiday feature endcap with a bevy of pegs dedicated to Star Wars Hot Wheels. This display also includes the newly released undamaged Stormtrooper car and the Darth Maul car. Click through for the full sized image.
Well miracles shall never cease. This particular store has not stocked any 3.75” Black Series product since wave one over a year ago. They instead chose to let dusty Discover the Force figures occupy the pegs and then ligthsabers which didn’t have enough room. I was pleasantly surprised to see Ree-Yees and (not) Brock Starsher on the pegs this morning. Click through for the full sized image.
I guess there are worse things than your Walmart putting the incorrect product on the Rebels endcap. Sometimes the correct product is worse.
I remember when I used to get excited this time of year when the toy section at Walmart would break out of its boundaries into overflow sections in the garden department and other areas of the store. We received a report of the Hero Series Falcon hitting a central Massachusetts Walmart. Sadly this overflow section has a lot of stuff, but nothing for me. Click through for the full image.
Walmart stores are celebrating the launch of the Star Wars Rebels series with a special product displays, but not in the action figure aisle. This four-way product display is featured near the cash registers. Click through for the details.
Our own Darth Dre was fortunate enough to see the Walmart special Rebels endcap set up in his store. Not only was it set up, but it’s stocked with figures! The only problem is…well…you’ll see.
Please don’t misconstrue this as a complaint. This is more how it should be. But after the Stormtrooper hysteria a few months ago, I was shocked to see this trio of Black Series 6” Stormtroopers still sitting at my Walmart after a week. Click through for the full sized image.
