    Question

    If something is never in stock, why do you need to put it on sell to free up space?

    Oh, that's easy, all the stores are currently starting their toy resets, so it's about purging all of the spots to fit the upcoming planogram. Either the store incorrectly thinks it still has stock, it DOES but some asshole hid it very well (maybe even intentionally for this exact reason), or the department's throwing blanket discounts on any spot that's not remaining.

    I see that you found the clear variant. Unfortunately, the box is also invisible. (You wouldn’t believe how hard it is to scan at the register.)

    I totally misplaced the sculpt and deco of the sword. I see that it is from Classics. I've been focused on my own "origins" collection and what will fit there.

    *Two employees are watching a guy walk out the door with one as they stock the toy aisle.*
    “Hey, isn’t that guy stealing?”
    “Nah, he’s just practicing his mime routine. Leave him be.”

    Same. I don't think the ones on the left are too bad, but I tasked a friend who lives in the US to find one for me because this is one instance where I don't want to be at the mercy of random variants trying to buy this stuff online.
