I just picked these up at Wal Mart yesterday on the way back from Myrtle Beach. I stopped at EVERY Wal Mart along Hwy 17 on the way back to Camp Lejeune looking for a Wraith Variant... and no luck finding that!
But I picked up the GH and SR at two different WM's...funny thing was that neither of the vehicles were in the WM computer. They had to ask me how much they were!?!? Yes, I did pay the actual price... I had the Sharc and they just scanned it twice. Anyhow, has anyone else ran into that problem? I really though about sticking it to Wal Mart and cutting the price in half for these lol! |

I had the same problem. Picked up the Moccasin yesterday. Really wanted the Skyhawk, but no luck. I, too, paid full price.

Id love it if I could find those at my Wally or TRU
but as I have often found.. nothing comes to Canada and I have to rely on the over priced ebay auctions or online retailers.. either way i have to pay for the vehicle and usually an inflated s/h charge as well.. :( |

I have seen this reported elsewhere and had my own run in today, seems some stores are flat out refusing to sell them since they "are not in the system" Welcome to SkyNet... er I mean Walmart

My guess is the vehicles are in the backroom, and probably has a hold on the new vehicles until the old ones sell out. But If Hasbro wanted to have and good fourth quarter of 2008, they should have made sure that wave 10,11,12 figures, Set 3,4,5 DVD, the next comic wave, and all vehicles were put on shelves. In, I don't know...more than 4 pegs and two feet of shelf space.

Yeah, Still no luck on anything in the Tampa Area either. The only thing New I found over the weekend was a couple of Pilot Scarlet's which I didn't really want so I passed on those.
Everyone else still has old crap up, I can't even find a Croc Master or Mutt & Junkyard. Luckily I got my Sting Raider and Ghost Hawk from HTS though.
