    Walmart doesn't upcharge their exclusives usually either. In fact exclusives are pretty normally offered with no upcharge from all retailers (the recent Sideswipe/Skywarp 2 pack being an odd exception)

    Well, they do online. It's why I haven't bought Hotlink yet because they have had it at $60 (now $68!) since day 1 if I recall.

    Walmarts online system is all kinds of screwed up and isn't reflective of what their retail prices actually are

    Much better way to handle the Red Card deal than with Red Wing. Much, much better.

    Odd; whenever I went to the page it said it wasn't available to be shipped and just gave nearby store lists

    Yeah lol I found a 35th Anniversary cell shaded Optimus on Walmart's website for.......... $3.01. Said it was at a local store and everything! It wasn't, obviously, but I just don't trust Walmart's online anything.

    So, if I understand this correctly, T-Wreck will be available to all come July 25, but until then is exclusive to RedCard holders?

    I saw Thrust available on-line for a long time. I was able to order Thrust online to ship to my local Target, which is 5 miles away. I am lucky that I have a local Target (in my area there's only one Target and 4 Walmarts) because I remember with Thrust, I never saw the option to get it shipped directly to my house.

    That is how I'm understanding it and, if so, that is an excellent move on Target's part. 20210616_064355.jpg

    Now we just wait and see if people with a RedCard can actually get him.

    Nobody bought one. Zero people. "Sold Out" is a placeholder. Read the rest of the thread.

    Wasn't a problem with Red Wing.

    I totally agree, but Kingdom Megs went out with the wrong head and that happened to Siege (ER?) Starscream(?) as well I think. A running change would be nice to see but as I said: bupkis…

    Kingdom Megatron and Siege and ER Starscream all came with the heads they were intended to as depicted on their packaging and CG renders

    But what I am talking about is that we did see an example of the snarling head (with the unpainted teeth) on Kingdom Megatron, and there was the documented cases of one of the Starscreams with Skywarp’s head. I was simply pointing out the wrong heads have been put on figures before (again, Rotorstorm with Spinister’s head). And I’m just going to reiterate: I am fully expecting T-Wrecks will have the normal Kingdom Megs head.

    So when are we thinking this will go live? Monday, or next Transformers Tuesday during Prime Day?
