Reports have been coming in that all Wal-mart's in Canada have raised their price for deluxe figures from $11.97 back to $15.92. This news coincides with the release of wave 4 deluxes, so be prepared to pay the extra buck if you want those now!

Awesome Picture hahahaaha. hilarious.
Also, pretty sure that they woudn't have sold them for 11.92 if they werent turning a profit.. so now they are just making more profit. I wish any of us had the restraint to send them a message by not paying that price, but who am I fooling? Thew TF community is not known for restraint.

Just had to download the picture.

Sends a good message to people who don't understand the grudges people have against Wal-Mart.

So they're regular price again now? Ah well; good thing there aren't any new figures coming out that I care about until the ones we saw previewed at SDCC hit.

Sucks, but just as well; there isn't much I want right now aside from the Ice Cream truck twins. XD

Gonna have to wait for the sale again.

Reports of "all" WMs are obviously not true because last night they were still $11.9x at the WM closest to me here. Granted there was nothing but pegwarmers, but a price is a price.

Yep, I was at my local Wal-Mart last night and despite what the report says, ROTF figures here in Ontario are still $11.99. I am sure though that once Wave 4 becomes more widely spread, the price for older pieces will be hiked up. :(

Hmmm, I was at my local Wal-Mart and the figures are still $11.99. Now, they were just unpacking Wave 4 last night, so maybe in a few days the price hike will take affect (figures) :( In any case, I'll be grabbing Dead End and Blazemaster for sure, price hike or not! :D

At first I was all: "KHAAAAAAN!"

Then I was like: :(

Then I needed to take a dump.

But now I'm like: YES, MONEY!

So really, it's not all bad. I'm hoping this makes way for some awesome Voyager class sale.

Good Idea! ;) Looks like the Bradford Wal-Mart still doesn't have the price change yet. Mind you, there store is mostly filled with peg warmers and the new pieces from Wave 4 are in very limited numbers (I counted five in total) and they're unmarked.

Price went up in Montreal to the "advertise price" (of this thread) of $15.92 :mad:
