It might be more clever if you have Walmart buy 7 figures at retail price that you just brought over from China. But Walmart already paid Hasbro for the 7 figures and then had to pay for them again because of this stunt.

First Walmart sold $8.00 x 7 = $56.00 (for simplicity lets say their cost was $3.00 each), so they made a profit of $5.00 x 7 = $35.00 profit
Second Walmart buys them for $56.00 then sells them all eventually at $2.00 x 7 = $14.00 >>> $56.00 - $14.00 = $42.00 loss - $35.00 ( profit made earlier at First Walmart ) =
$7.00 total loss. (ok so nothing to cry about)

I am not the one that knows what the store actually pays per figure. It would be great if they only pay Hasbro $2.00 per figure, then this stunt only forces Walmart to give them up at cost.
My second concern was not whether or not this steals from Walmarts profits , rather if it steals from their investment into this product. I should also point out that I am not trying to stick up for them as I am aware that it is the store's fault for letting this happen.
