    I'm excited to get the jump masters and target masters, those were long gone by the time I started collecting. I actually just picked up Twin Twist from a board member last week, but I still need everyone else.

    Just what we need, a con of all Wal-Mart exclusives. Sarcasm.

    Yeah Tech is mainline. If they really want to piss us off they'll make Echo an exclusive. Walmart Canada never put up the listing for BB Rex.

    For Transformers, I could see one of the SS Bumblebee Seekers being an exclusive. I believe someone mentioned that before. Either Skywarp or Thundercracker

    They got my money if it\'s the Jumpstarters and Horri-bull and Squeezeplay. Wouldn\'t put an Earthmode Hound past them.

    As unlikely as that is to happen... that would be utterly amazing.

    I spent 60 bucks to get my Nautica. Don't regret it for a second as she is one of my favorite fembots. But I'd love for others to get a chance to get her.

    My rage has awakened me from a deep slumber. I declare collector fatwah on retailer exclusives. It's a trick to get collectors to go to the store looking for something that isn't there.

    Same here. It's another Walmart exclusive promotion and they haven't even shipped the last ones. It's time to splurge on a Hasbro Pulse membership and skip this lame rodeo.

    Since Netflix has practically ended, what could they possibly offer?

    R.E.D. and retro headmasters are both Walmart exclusives as are retro beast wars and retro g1

    Any number of recently leaked sets not otherwise assigned to outlets?

    Is this Walmart USA only or Canada as well ?

    Nevertheless, the product will show up on their website, but « not available ». Can’t order or preorder and no stores inventory. And despite having 3 stores in a 15-30 minutes radius, they won’t stock or get a single figure that will stay on the shelf for 10 minutes, first come first served. Gotta love Walmart...

    All I can hope for then is the star wars reveals. But that's a worst pain than transformers.

    Best case is the rumors are right and its the TR reissues.

    Worst case?

    Hasbro: Okay, you really screwed up the Netflix Soundwave Figure we let you release as an exclusive. We need to do better. What do you have in mind?

    Wal-Mart: WFC Blaster.

    Hasbro:...sounds good for us! One per state, right?
