Just got back from Walmart - they just put out a fresh case...of Wave 1. More than likely, these are the ones that were supposed to be from the stocking stuffer display before Christmas. So yeah, this store is only three months or so behind the times. MIKE engledogg
So I went to the different more ghetto walmart. the one where somebody got stabbed years ago. same legends wave. and this one dont care. so I walked away with the legends
I went through the same thing at Walmart today going through the self checkout. Old timer there took them all and went to returns. I said screw it, grabbed a second set, hit up an employee near garden, explained that they wouldn't scan and that I really didn't want to come back, so he grabbed a cosmos off the shelf, scanned it three times for me and I left with the wave. Didn't want to push my luck and grab two of battletrap (I am sure it won't be tough to get), but I think this may be one of the best G1 updates. Great gimmick, and they didn't have a very high bar to clear to improve it.

Same thing happened to me. I didn’t think to grab a wave 1 toy and just scan and leave it at the self check out. Plus I didn’t see any wave 1 legends. I’m going back today to get some stuff ima try it that way.
Yea, I just hope it doesn't screw up their inventory to the point where they don't get in new waves as fast since Cosmos is (probably) considered a different line. Was happy that he did it, because as little as I hunt these days, I am still like a rabid dog when new things I want are released.
This. Both voyagers and legends were restocked at the local Wal-Mart but with wave 1. But that's ok. I have to head out of town tomorrow and there are 2-3 Wal-Marts on the way.
Found a fresh case of wave 2 legends this morning. Love them all. Love the Machine Robo vibes coming off of the Duocons. Here’s some photos -
Wow. Your Walmart hasn’t received wave 1? Or did they sell thru during the holidays? That’s some shitty distribution if the former.
Looking at that card back... I'm just not convinced. If a headmaster sat back there, that helicopter blade would take his head off, right? No, wait... that would more likely rip him in TWAIN. In the center.
Cool. Thus far none of them are on my wishlist however. Patiently awaiting Sludge and Moonracer. Crossing my fingers real hard for Thundercracker and Sideswipe.
Hit the wave 2 jackpot at Walmart today. Picked up Hun-gurrr, Elita 1, Tailgate & OP. Tailgate wouldn't ring up but I just told the attendant what I remembered the price being & she just punched it in manually for me
