I got mine today but no pin. Damn walmart put it in a envelope. Card wasnt that bad. However, I cant complain too much because they gave me a full refund for the missing pin and let me keep the figure.

Somehow the figures that showed up in the bubble envelope ended up in much better condition than the figures that showed up in boxes. I don't understand how that is possible.

I wonder how this whole pin thing is going to hit hasbro and walmart. Seems like they are giving a lot of full or partial refunds for the figure. Maybe it will hurt walmart doing a exclusive like this in the future.

hopefully it does.
but i dont think either party will learn anything from it. walmart will still inexplicably cancel preorders a few months after they were made. hasbro will still give them exclusives from people really wanting it like din, and people having no use for any like yavin luke; and then say "tvc is not a very good line" because they're still setting it up for failure. if anything they're likely to not include a pin or something like that in the future; not because they screwed it up at every possible opportunity to screw it up, but that it's an extra item and no effort is better than any effort. imagine if walmart just left it alone and didnt offer any pins. they'd still have cancelled preorders for consumers. but people would not be seeking refunds for something they never had any real intention of adding to the packages. would it have been 17.68? well, they're getting away with carbonized figures going at that price point, so why not? i dont actually believe the pin itself is a hasbro product so they really dont have a dog in that fight. |

I honestly just did it to see if I would get the pin. The figure itself I wish was cleaner and more silver. I have the beskar mando for pre order on bbts and Im debating whether or not cancel it. The walmart figure didn't look worth all the trouble to get and I was just going to use the non beskar mando I got a year ago and the 6 inch grogu I got even though its not to scale. If I could have just went on walmart, clicked, and knew it was coming my was I might have been more keen on getting it. It just isn't worth it to get on, order/pre order, then a week later they tell you that you are not getting it. It just isnt worth it.
I now get a lot of stuff on bbts. Even though I am one of those people that will grab multiples of the same figures off the shelf and compare paint jobs and get what I think is the best one at least with bbts I know the chances are high I will get it. Quote:

as far as i know, walmart is the only way to get a 3.75" din djarin head w/o helmet.
i dont care to follow up on the razor crest version of din because im 3d printing a razor crest for a third of the cost after i print moff gideon's tie fighter. |
