ETA: You can usually get Walmart customer service to correct the price on your order. That happened to me on one of my GI Joe Retro Cobra troopers, when i wasn't paying close enough attention. It took 5 minutes on the phone to get them to adjust the price correctly. Last edited by CombinedArms; 12-02-2021 at 11:00 AM.. |

Did Walmart ship more or is the discussion about the few that trickled out a few weeks ago?

To my knowledge they have not shipped any more. This is about that Thursday night ordering people did weeks ago.

Has anyone here ever purchased from that seller on Amazon? I was tempted to place an order for one of each, just in the off chance they ship early. But there were a lot of negative ratings so I was hesitant?

I can understand why you'd like a transparent chest plate. But I'm guessing the reason it wasn't made is a simple one. Making that chest plate be transparent is kind of like telling Joes to "Shoot Here" and showing exactly what they need to aim at. In person the black chest plate doesn't seem too bad to me. You can always remove it and keep it off if it bothers you that much. And the neck seems ok. May try to take a photo later and figure out how to post it if it's that big a deal just to show.

More importantly, what does a transparent plate really show? You can clearly see what's inside by simply not having a plate at all. If you want a real world context I agree your reasoning works as well as any, but more importantly since this figure doesn't leverage the lenticular there really is no reason to have a transparent plate except to be perhaps overly observant of the OG.

Having been someone who constantly refreshed the Target Cobra Island Viper page this summer, nothing about this anecdote bothers me or strikes me as unbelievable . . . except one thing.
I've heard the claim before that they assumed they would be getting Movie Akikoes. That's just nonsense. Whether they knew the difference between the Alley Vipers and the BATs' code name or not, whoever was refreshing that page knew they were getting new figures. Anyone who is obsessively tracking down empty Walmart listings with Hasbro code names is more than aware of how those names are used. Tell the story and don't embellish. Persistence and cleverness paid off. But there was no element of risk here. |
