    Union City (Not Hayward- I always get those two cities mixed up), CA. Off the 880. They had plenty of Outbacks, too!

    They were rolling this display out on a pallet when I walked in around 7am this morning. I'm glad I never went through the hassle and ordeal of trying to order these online and continually getting the orders cancelled.

    Seeing people's pics of these on she shelves and pegs is giving me precisely the nostalgic hit I hoped it would. Especially...

    ... that pic. Apart from the modern bots alongside them, and despite being comparatively thin in contrast to what I remember, that could almost be a photo taken back in the 80s. Wistful yet oddly pleasant sigh.

    I can't wait to walk into a Walmart and see this in person. It's a Christmas miracle!

    Yeah, there were a couple of cloudy Outback's that I avoided before finding one with clear plastic.

    Does anyone know the reasoning behind the reissuance of Outback, Tailgate and Swerve? Are they in the BB movie? Why not Brawn, Windcharger and Gears?

    Went looking at another Wal-mart on the way home and didn't find any of the little guys. Ended up buying the one Hot Rod they had that was packaged correctly, facing the right way for $12.97. I'll give my other one to my son and keep this one MISB.

    Man, if Walmart ever restocks G1 Devastator online at a severe discount like Hot Rod I will be all over it.

    FYI.

    San Diego, California. Shawline WalMart. As of 3:00p there were plenty of minibots on pegs (not the big yellow cardboard displays). Picked up two Bumblebees and the last Hot Rod I saw. $13 for Hot Rod is an auto-buy for me.
