So I ran into a couple of the Walmart Endgame displays today...which allowed me to finally spot Ronin in the wild and I figured...why not...and grabbed him, as he makes a great generic ninja if you remove the coat, and can be nice custom base.

What blows me away though about the display, is how much wasted space it is...and not because it carries a variety of other products, but because it is seriously inefficient with the amount of Legends product it carries.

The Legends is only about 1/4 of the entire display, and is filled in a way that makes it 90 percent cardboard. There are compartments that house 4 figures total, while some that can only fit a single figure. WTF?!?

In comparison, when Mattel did their Wrestlemania endcap displays at Walmart just before Wrestlemania this year, those displays were loaded from front to back in every compartment with basic and Elite figures from 2 different waves, not to mention 2 packs, toy championship belts and store exclusives, making it super easy to find whatever it was you were looking for. Why Hasbro would shortchange their Legends line by giving its portion mostly air and packed out cardboard really has me dumbfounded.
I saw that stupidity at my local Walmart too. I’d hate to be the stocker that has to bail that monstrosity. I doubt the margin on those figures covers the cost of cardboard.
