Sorry after they screwed up my preorders for Bluestreak and Soundblaster I will never preorder another figure from Walmart ever again. I'll pay extra and get it shipped from Asia if it's an exclusive.

 

Great discounts but I just don't trust Walmart not to cancel my orders after 8 separate orders cancelled for minibots last year!

 

I just ordered them on Walmart as Plan B, but also have the pre-ordered through Amazon weeks ago as Plan A.   

 

Yeah whenever I try that I screw.up and end up with 2 figures!

 

All of the walmart sale are getting matched by amazon, if you want to try there.

 

Hmm. Potentially canceled orders vs. orders not canceled, but shipped in bubble mailers...

Decisions, decisions...please don't make me choose, lol.

Seriously, though, I wish these retailers would get their e-commerce/internet sales procedural crap under control.

Why yes, yes I do! Thanks!!

I'll take option two please Mike!

I open them anyway so I don't care if the box is damaged as long as it served its purpose of getting the toy to me intact  

Totally understand that the bubble envelope is unacceptable to an MISB collector though!

 

I just canceled my 35th cell shaded Optimus and Megatron so they may be up now for preorder again.

 

Man I wish they would do running changes of Skywarp and thunderrcracker, its just a color swap.

 

^and different artwork on the box, that's the part I want.

 

Thank you for posting this - I totally forgot to mention it here when I ordered them last week. I ordered two and just got them in yesterday. If you're hoping to keep it in packaging, just be aware that it's a gamble with Walmart shipping. They crammed them in a box that was way too small and bent the top card on one pretty badly. Both also had some dings and scuffs, but I just opened up the worse one to enjoy anyway, so no biggie. Still not sorry I got them since the clearance price for these has long since passed me by.

 

Walmart cancelled my Bluestreak order. I'm so pissed, he's the last of the 1984 Autobots I need for my collection, so of course he's going to be fucking impossible to get. None of the Walmarts here have put the 35th stuff out either.

 

Nabbed Spinister and Apeface with my added employee discount thay came to around $40. I'd add Crosshairs, but I have a preorder already used by gift cards and I don't know if they'll refund those to me....

Btw, the preorder happened when I ordered bluestreak (which I got but that was a while ago)

 

Have you looked in the seasonal section? Its been in a different place in every store i've seen the display at. If you check in the store on the walmart app, itll even tell you the aisle. If they havent put them out yet still, they will any day. Each displayer has enough of him you should easily be able to get one.

 

That Walmart discount is jank as fuck. What was it, 15% off?

 

10%. Took off a few dollars. Every penny counts in my books.
It's also why Iwant to find the soundblaster and Anime OP in hand, so when i put it on layaway and get my black Friday discount, it'll be bumped up to 25%.

 

Advice from a retail god. Try applying at Best Buy, the discount is.. Amazing. Same with Hot Topic but the later won't give many hours.

 

The Best Buy discount is 5% above cost. So it’s great on some things like accessories and it’s literally 0 on other things like iPads.

 

I got my $500 Computer chair for $300 and I was getting $16.50 per hour when I worked there. <.< Also my store had the break room to end all break rooms. <.< Granted, my store didn't care much about customer service so much as getting them to spend money, which is why I was utterly miserable there, but while I was there those checks were rather nice.
