They will clearance out older "shelfwarming" stock in order to get newer stock from the backroom onto the salesfloor. I can sometimes find older waves of DCUC in the clearance section while finding newer figures on shelves in the toy isle.
Sometimes they clearance things to get rid of a line altogether. Sometimes just to move on to fresher stock.
Point being, you really can't assume that because something is clearanced, it means they're done with it.
I worked at Walmart myself. Guess my toy management did really suck, as I really never saw that occur at my store (basically the only things clearanced were discontinued items, they never did "temporary clearance" to clear out old stock, even on lines like Star Wars which at one point had figures from FOUR different brandings on the shelves)
