Repackaged NECA Robocop Available on Amazon

[Wyvern314]

I read that the PotA figures can't be found locally, but my TRU is overflowing with them! Robocop, on the other hand, is not to be seen.
Also, the local WalMart wasx recently stocking the NECA Terminator figures.

I've seen the newly repackaged Terminator at Walmart in the section where they keep sports and Pokemon cards. Wouldn't be surprised if these start turning up there as well.

That's where they are supposed to be at. Seen reports of them being found on Twitter. I've had no luck spotting either figure at my local WMs.

I think I'm gonna have to go online for this, I've been looking for the past week or so since these first dropped from Twitter but all they have are a shit ton of Walking Dead toys and some Halo 4 stuff, absolutely no NECA stuff there. They barely even have any scalers anymore at my local WM so I highly doubt that my store will get the Terminators or Robocop.

Unable to bring up the link at Amazon. Maybe it was pulled? Would love to save on shipping.

Edit: fixed link. Click HERE for Amazon.

No international shipping?! AAAUGH.

Y'all don't have Wal-Marts do you, that's just like a North America thing, right? So I think that E-bay is your only option right now, the E-bay page for Robocop says that it ships to the United Kingdom.

Nope, no Wal-Marts here. I've done the deed through eBay now anyway. Reasonable price and no import charges! Win!

I just jumped the gun and ordered mine from ebay because my Walmart doesn't even have the Terminators yet and I did not want to wait around for this one. For me it was a $6 difference between if I ever found one in a store, I can totally live with that.

Revisiting the NECA store on EBay: What on Earth is NECA doing selling Ten Thousand Dollar Bills?

1934 $10,000 Ten Thousand Dollar Bill FRN New York District PCGS 63 Choice New Serial number B00003069A

Interesting!

and why the hell is it 110,000.00? when the face value is only 10,000.

The same reason a unique quarter can sell for a dollar, some people like to collect old, maintained money.

I live in walking distance to a Walmart and check their inventory each morning. The woman who works in that department in the front of the store told me that they did not receive full cases like Toys R Us. So far, they've received 3 Jaegers, 3 Terminator Endos and 3 holster-leg Robocops. I will continue to buy every 7 inch NECA figure they receive.

I'm assuming you mean you get one of each (except for maybe the Endoskeleton).

Some people do vacuum up all new stock, aiming to flip it online. Quite sleazy IMO.

I've always gone by the "leave some for next guy" code unless there's only one left. I like to imagine that everybody does something like that, but then there are scalpers.

I was able to find a Rob O'Cop at a Kansas City area WM yesterday. It was the only one and fortunately it had pretty good paint apps. I will have to make it a habit of checking out the trading card isle in the future when I go there. Hopefully these sell well enough that WM starts carrying more Neca figures so I have more options than just TRU for Predators, Alien and Terminator figures.

So far from what Randy has said Wal-Mart will only carry certain "title-characters" and not full waves under this current arrangement. This is why so far Wal-Mart has only gotten the single Godzilla, single Gipsy Danger, single Caesar, single Terminator, and now this single Robocop. They get more than one of each but only the one figure, no full waves or series.

I have addictive tendencies! LOL! No, honestly I just hope Walmart will stock more of NECA's products in the future. Pacific Rim, Terminator and Robocop translate well as 7 inch figures and people who normally might not purchase a figure from the toy aisle would buy these, because they are a noticeable improvement over the original versions from previous toy lines.

Also, I'm really hoping Walmart will stock the John Matrix figure from "Commando," since he will have the similar window box packaging as the new Terminator and Robocop figures.

Maybe they'll get it but it's not like the Terminator or Robocop that Wal-Mart is getting, it's an ultimate figure which uses a larger box featuring a hinged flap over the window with velcro to open and close said flap. Ultimate figures are priced at around $25 instead of the $18 or so that these run for so that may keep Wal-Mart from wanting any of those.
