    Emerald City finally got Hun-Gurrr and Elita-1 in. 40 each. They also have a couple deluxe Terrorcons and Dinobots left. Also if anyone collects DBZ figuarts, they have the Saiyan Raised on Earth Goku for 45 bucks.

    Why in god’s name would they charge that much for items on the cusp of mass clearance at retail? Either store them in the back for a year, or don’t accept stuff like that as trade..

    .. or, maybe they’re going for whatever business model Mike’s in Orlando is using.. toy museum?

    In their defense, they were among the many waiting on Hasbro to get their shit together and properly distribute them. They order most of their figures through EE so at most they're marking them up 10 bucks, but more than likely 5. That's what non-chain/corporate stores do to make a profit. Buy the product from a distributor of some sort, then mark it up x amount to make a profit so they can stay in business.

    Are they really getting them through EE? They used to just scalp stuff from TRU when they were in Countryside.

    I went back later that day to pick it up, but it was gone. They have nothing on the shelf from the Studio Series right now so I'll try back tomorrow to see if they restocked.
    I'll pick one up for you if I see one.
    Just PM me if you find one.

    The Walmart app & website said DeLand and Orange City had G1 Devastator in stock yesterday. Orange City even had the aisle listed with their new system while DeLand said "in stock, unknown location." Looked everywhere in DeLand, had an employee try to help as well (probably just in the stockroom somewhere). Checked back today, listing completely removed from site/app... /sigh

    Maybe I can try to get to Orange City, but DeLand I can actually check on my lunch break.

    The Walmart in Ocoee on HWY 50 has 5 G1 Hotrods left. I bought one and the only Devastator.
    The Hotrods are along the back wall under where the Funko Pops are kept.

    Bought g1 Hot Rod earlier this evening at Wal Mart Winter Haven. Case picked no less but was 30+ so was kinda bummed. The WM near my house has Devestator but 74 dollars was kinda out of my price range me going to TFCon at the end of the month.

    I’ve been to a couple of Walmarts that supposedly had them, but they were not on the shelves, and no where to be found I got lucky at the last one though, and carefully examined the shipping boxes on the top shelf, where I found G1 Starscream and Devi. I took a few out and put them on the shelves for others. So you might want to keep an eye out on that top shelf. :)

    The Walmart off exit 217 on I-75 has the new Power Charge Bumblebee. And here's the best part, it's already on clearance. 20181003_085650.jpg
