Universe Smokescreen and Dinobot FOUND in Wal-mart

I found Universe Smokescreen and Dinobot in a local Wal-mart today. I didn't think they were due until March. When I brought them to the register Dinobot rang up fine. Smokescreen was not in their system. After about 45 minutes the manager rang up the Smokescreens as TFA Bumblebees. Then they pulled the remaining stock off the pegs. I'm not sure if this was a mistake with Hasbro sipping early or Wal-marts distribution. But they have been purchased by me in North Carolina. I have attached a few pics. One is in Wal-mart, the other is in my house. I didn't scan the receipt because Smokescreen wouldn't ring up anyway. And I don't want to get anybody at Wal-mart in trouble if they weren't supposed to sell them.

Smokescreen UPC: 653569376057

Dinobot UPC: 563569371007

Nice! I just found Wave 4 yesterday so it will probably be a while before they show up here.

What? No receipt? You lie you bought those off ebay and took them to the store and out them on the pegs and took pics. Just Kidding

That is sweet they are out two months early, but not so sweet that my money will be spent with no leeway in between lines. Sorry poor wallet no rest until the movie toys swap the shelves once again.
Taking Commissions email or PM me today to get yours!!!

When you get into a heated argument about toys, you have reached a new low!!

In North Carolina nevertheless... Makes me wonder if WM is just holding back stock to get rid of those clearance IJ figures to kids instead of selling new product to them with their Christmas money.

Congrats on the find! You don't really need that 2nd Dinobot do you?

I hear ya man. I passed on them last night because I just don't have the extra cash right now. When I realized they were out early, and there were none for sale on eBay yet, I just couldn't pass up the opportunity. So I put them on eBay. I hate to go scalper. But God knows my family can use the money.
