    Really? Both Paleotrex and Waspinator were $13.00 at the clearance aisle at my local Walmart. Like I said earlier, not every Walmart is going to do the same thing. And by that, I mean prices when it comes to the clearance aisle.

    Every Walmart is different, you can be sure of that.

    You're not wrong. I once hunted down reissue blaster 20 minutes away because that walmart had marked him down to $3.50

    Reissue/Vintage G1 Blaster huh? I see. I wanted to get him as well, but didn't get the chance to. Also, found Kingdom Arcee at Gamestop, but I passed her up because she's going to be irrelevant once SS86 Arcee comes out.

    Other than that, aside from Walmart and Gamestop, GameXchange does sale Transformers figures, both new and old, since I go there I did find most of the Generations Selects figures, like Sandstorm, Rotorstorm, and Bugbite.

    I think they also have some Cyberverse and Kingdom figures there as well, and some older figures like AOE Lockdown, Centuritron, and POTP Jazz are the ones I found, Thrilling 30 Double dealer was passed up, even the Cybertron Leader Class Optimus Prime was also found there, and these were all at my local GameXchange store.

    There's another GameXchange store in Longview, Texas, both stores have Masterpiece Arcee there as well because those are the only two stores I know that are located in Marshall and Longview, respectively.

    yeah, I know sales vary Walmart to Walmart. My local Walmart never clearanced retro primal before they sold out, and the Walmart I stop at to and from work still has them “ clearanced “ at 40.

    I know a certain kitty who loves Transformers. She's battled out right now but will be back in action after a quick cat nap. Actually the more appropriate phrase would be....
    "Right after these messages!"

    You're welcome!

    I'm very sorry to hear that. Still, time will tell if it will be affordable for you to get, I'm just not sure if your Walmart will drop the price to make it affordable.

    Walmart off of 80 and Beltline had Exclusive KD Beasts, Reissue Cybershark and a SS Slag if anyone’s interested. Picked up the Blaster with my 6 month old gift card.

    If anyone interested...Gi Joe Reaction on clearance. More like; selling at the price they should be normally ($8.99).

    The thing that actually caught my attention is the RED Coronation Starscream right above the SS86 version. Not that I want it but thought it was an interesting curiosity. Also they have the latest deluxe Legacy wave but none of the 1st wave which I found odd.

    Same as always, Walmart off of 80 and Beltline, with a bit of an update. Not only have SS86 Coronation Starscream shown up, there are 15 total Legacy Beasts exclusives, including:
    5 Buzzsaw
    6 Nightprowler
    4 Sandstorm
    The majority are on the top of the shelves, along with reissue Cybersharks.

    On top of that, the 2 Dracodon left from Kingdom are on sale for $7.

    Wave 15?
    From several months ago? I saw them on the regular for awhile, but nothing's been well stocked over the last month.

    They never showed up in my area of DFW, no stockings at Walmart or Target at all. Plenty of Legacy though.
