Woah...well, you'd have a point if those sidecap displays were the only place the stores had to display Joes, but they were "single-use/one-and-done" displays, meant to be used for a short window of time (Walmart's sidecaps are plan-o-grammed too, I'm pretty sure, and only occupy that space until it's some other display's time to take that spot), and that's it. The actually cases of Retro figures weren't supposed to be displayed until the POG was reset to include them in the aisle on their own pegs.
Basically, in my situation, that rep was saying she can't put something on the salesfloor if it doesn't have a plan-o-grammed "home". She hadn't noticed or realized the store set the aisle to the new POG until I pointed out the pegs to her. After that, she was free to get them out of the back. Even if that store had had an empty Joe sidecap hanging there, I doubt she would've been able to put those wave 2 figures in it because that wasn't their allocated place. I'm sure a Walmart employee could've, but these reps are purely task-based and follow the instructions they're given. Her instructions probably say something like, "Stock GI Joe Retro Asst (numbers) according to POG (numbers)."
