Stopped by a local Walmart here in Tampa and saw this (see photo). GIJ Movie assort fig 1 and 2 both $9.97. I was going to pick up another Duke for parts but not at that price. I know the economy killing finance reform bill went through but I didn't think inflation was going to jump that high overnight.

Those may be the price resets for the newer figures. They probably have the newer figures in the back awaiting the street date. However they may have already started redoing the shelves.

If that is the case, then I may be out of the GI Joe collecting biz altogether. It's hard enough to pick and choose Marvel Universe figures at $8 each. I can't bring the completist in me to buy every Joe at that price.

I was just logging in to post the same info. Looks like you scooped me Sg3.
If these are going to reflect the POC prices, I can't imagine myself even checking Walmart going forward. I just don't understand if these are the prices, how can they sell the alpha's for less than 15? This seems like pure insanity to me. |

Still had the movie label on the sticker. Didn't have time to run one to a price checker, but I'll be at another one this weekend and check. If the new figs are going to be $10.00, I may have to stop as well, that's just to much for a shelf display and to play with from time to time. I mean $25 for the new alpha vehicles is fine I can live with that, but $10 a fig may have to seriously think on that.
