True Walmart seems to have haphazard stocking but part of the problem is with Hasbro. Shipping assortments that contain previoulsy released figures (repaks) really leads to tons of peg warmers slow sales and no restock with the new stuff.

What I meant to say was I periodically go into Wal Mart hoping to find some awesome toys, just like you Do Boy, but never seem to find any worth buying.

All the Wal Marts around me ever have are the latest movie tie in toys no one seems to want like Green Lantern.

In a way, I was kind of agreeing with you.

Is the FF three-pack a Walmart exclusive? I was on the fence about the few I saw at WMs last weekend and I figure they're all gone by now. Hopefully Target can stock them, since you can't swing a dead cat in Minneapolis without hitting three red bullseyes.

Makes me eager for a Johnny Storm in a refresh wave, instead of the Thing that's supposed to be in w15r1.

Don't bring that name up here, its CLASSIFIED information.

Besides, I don't think you were getting my back, just being the super villain you are at heart.

Okay, that's good news then. Just need a reset in our region then, maybe they'll boot some of the other Marvel boxed stuff, the Cap cars or something.

The Guardian, Hobgoblin, Green Goblin, Johnny Storm wave killed the MU section at the Walmart closest to me. There were so many pegwarmers from that wave which they ordered TONS of cases (for Christmas I think) that the MU section never could recover from it.

It was so bad that some months ago they finally had to clearance all those Hobgoblins and Johnny Storms (at least 15-20 each) for $1 a piece (along with bazillion POC Arctic Destros, also for $1, lol). Never saw MU again there after that.

Agreed! Instead of stocking the new waves of MU, my Walmart stocked a ridiculous revision case. My ToysRUs, the only other place in town that sells MU, stocked TWO of the exact same revision case Walmart put out. Practically none of them have sold. So my town didn't get any of the new figures and now has tons of pegwarmers. I just don't get it.
