Just got a call from the Manager at my local WalMart. He said that at 5pm next Friday, the 29th, they will be able to start selling the new Transformers.

 

Seriously? Not that it matters. It's only a few hours.

 

It matters for the many people who get off work at 5PM and could make a quick stop at Wal-Mart on the way home, rather than fight weekend crowds the next day.

 

...but will they be set out yet?

 

He said that's when they will be putting them on the shelves. So be looking at your local stores this week for the reset.

 

okay first it was the 30th, then June 1st, now may29th , make up your minds people

 

Well then, I have two walmarts on my way home from work, and then another two within 25 minutes the other direction.

It's amazing, 4 walmarts within a 60 mile diameter in no-wheres-ville ohio. Crazy. I would hope ONE of them would have them set. Saves me the time at midnight, or 1am, or 2am, or whenever they may still decide to do it.

 

Yeah, if this works out I won't be up at midnight next Friday. Or at least not up and sober.

 

hmmmmm

 

I went to Walmart on the street date in 2007. I expected to see all the new toys out on the shelves. There was nothing. I asked about it & they told me "oh, we'll be putting them out slowly starting next Monday". They didn't give a rats ass. But now that they know what a money maker this line is, maybe their attitude will be a little different!?!?!

 

Good, because that's the one day I have off next week.
 

 

damn, busy that night from 3-7:30...great

 

wow i hope that my wal mart does relase them on the 29th

 

my local Target had signs up in the toy section, where the Animated figures used to be, that RoTF figures will be out the 30th.

 

Well... Just hope I can get there on time...

 

I don't think you have to worry. Do you know how many pallets & how many cases of this stuff they have in the back? There will be enough for everybody.


Now if we were GI Joe fans we'd have something to worry about because GI Joe fans buy the best figures just so nobody else can have any. They play keep-away from other fans. GI Joe collectors are the worst hoarders in this hobby, but they call it "Army-building". I'm so thankful Transformers collectors aren't like that.

 

I don't even know when these toys come out wave 1 is already out here according to my friend.

 

I this sucks!!! I hardly ever go there!!! And all because my mom doesn't like Walmart!!!!

 

this is awsome between my house and work...which i get off at 5 (i can sneak out at 430)......i can actually pass 4 walmarts on the way home..and 3 more if i drive an extra 10 miles thats 7 walmarts i could hit with nooo problem......SWEETTT

 

Will this happen in all Wal-Marts in North America?
