If you're determined to only buy figures at a grocery store, you have a long, dark collecting future ahead of you.
The future of $20+ action figures is not likely to include plentiful quantities on the shelves of stores that prioritize keeping the potato chip aisle stocked. The post a little while ago showing Gung Ho already on clearance after being on the shelf for a week or so shows how much these food marts care about this product. Agreed, at some point these figures will price themselves right out of these places. However, with $200 Legos an isle or two over, it could be quite a while. The clearance Gung-Ho has already been covered, but I'll add this; a long, long time ago when I HAD a local WalMart, it seemed whenever something military would come in (Joe, Ultimate Soldier, etc), it'd go straight to clearance. I say this because I'd be there one week, nothing. Then a week or two later, they'd have new items already on clearance. Had to be a manager or local corporate person doing it. Quote:
I run into this all the time with the Walmart app and Walmart is stupid because they've removed all the in-store price scanners at every location I shop at. They did it to encourage people to get the app but now we don't have an accurate way to determine the store price without asking an employee. It might as well be the 1980s/90s again.
Quote:
Ya wal mart needs to put those scanners back in so i dont have track down some indignant employee who always has that why are you bothering me look and then says with a condescending you can use the walmart app to check it yourself. And i say well if you guys hadnt taken those self scanners out you wouldnt have to do your job as an employee. Maybe you all should put em back in.
Then to add insult to injury, they left the "scanner" signs up to make you think you found one.... If I don't harass an employee, I go to self-checkout and check the price. If I don't like it, I leave it there. Quote:
Last year, or the year before, one Target here disconnected all their scanners "because of Covid." Almost thought WM did the same.

Well, at least you're reasonable.

Westside Walmart got Spirit, Storm Shadow, and the Cobra Officer. It wasn't overstocked with as much movie figures as the Eastside is. Out of the three the Cobra Officer is my favorite, I like that they got rid of that restrictive overlay. Spirit is second I like the update to his uniform still classic but definitely needed. Storm Shadow is cool but could use more weapons instead of the hood which isn't really necessary. Croc Master looks great, must be someone at hasbro's favorite character this is like the third or fourth version since 2009.
