    Yes, this was Walmart in Houston TX.
    I'm at this store few times a week on average and these weren't on the shelf or on the clearance isle.
    Most likely stashed in the back.

    Were they on the shelf on an isle that customers can pick them from or were they in the back stocking area where only employees have access to?

    They were on the rolling rack thing shown in the first pic parked in the isle.
    I'm assuming they would've eventually been taken to clearance.

    Notice it is marked as a leader, hence the leader class price point. I pre-ordered as this is a great price, but I'm also prepared for this order to mess up somehow and have the wrong thing ship. At least it is the right designation. ER-24. So I'm hopeful this is just a mistake in the price entered into the system they will honor.

    Wow, lol. Yeah, I placed the Sky lynx order too. Why not? I already have an order placed, but I will switch to this if it seems real.

    :eek:  Awww shiet! Just pre-ordered Sky Lynx on Walmart for 49.99 plus free shipping!

    Thank you thread! :) 

    Eh. If they don't honor it, I'll at least be tactful so they at least give my entitled bum some sorta store credit or something, but if not that's cool too. :p

    I got a pre-order in too. I assume the MSRP is supposed to be $80, so they're not loosing money at $50, they're just making less of a profit. Hopefully they let the orders stand, if not, no biggie.

    Sooooo pissed off with Walmart right now. I tried to jump on the $18 Snapdragon and always got the "oos error" and now its the same BS with Skylynx. Walmart why do you hate Puerto Rico?!?!

    Dang, I didn't even really want Skylynx (I'm happy with the CW version) but at that price I feel like it would be stupid not to preorder, haha

    Thanks for the heads up on Skylynx. I don't have any interest in him, but my son will probably love him for Christmas. He loves his Siege Jetfire

    So glad I managed to get one of those, heard about it on Twitter. Sky Lynx was my favorite character as a kid, I thought he was the coolest, which I'm sure he'd appreciate. Wasn't planning on buying that figure, but for $50 my childhood self wouldn't let me say no.
