I hate that Walmart. I went up there two Saturdays ago and it looked like a tornado hit their toy aisle. The only one I've seen worse is the K-Mart on Indian River. I don't even know how they order new toys since almost none are on the pegs, they're on the floor.
I actually like that walmart since most of the time it is organized and clean. The only other one better is the Nimmo one. Sometimes the Cedar road one has better selection but its only every now and then. The Kmart you mentioned has consistently been a piece of shit for a long while. Always looks like a mess, even security was surprised that I even found something once. Its as if a rhino went loose in the toy aisle and no one bothered to pick up th pieces.
I just got back from battlefield walmart and the toy aisles are no longer blocked. They had a good number of wave 7, a lot of Wild Bills, 1 HISS driver(is this guy the new Flash? I rarely see him). They had a bunch of Snake Eyes, Duke, and Vipers. They had 1 12" Torpedo, a couple Snake Eyes, 2 12" Storm Shadows(which looks surprisingly appealing), 1 DVD set with Destro, and a bunch of waves 1-4 comics, with about 4-8 packs being wave 4. I actually like the Storm Shadow comic from the comic pack, good way of tying loose ends, and I have less disdain for the lack of a shirt on Storm Shadow now, the comic makes the figure bad ass. He used everything that the figure comes with, thats pretty neat. Even the kama's, but he used them as grappel accessories, still cool.
Even if Hasbro were to repaint him with a shirt later in the line as a single pack figure, I figured paying $9.88+tax is a good bargain as opposed to paying $6.94 each. The gear makes this set worth while, both figures are great(except for Storm Shadow's lower legs which are tricky to flex), and the Firefly included is the best one yet. If this Storm Shadow is painted with a shirt later on, and more accurately sculpted parts are used for the DDP design, then I will still buy the single pack version. As it is, this is one of the best comic packs I have bought.
