Re: Titans Return street dates

^^ Knowing TRU and Walmart, I wouldn't be surprised. Why am I still seeing some TF Prime figuires on shelves even after the show finished 3 years ago?

Re: Titans Return street dates

Hi. I posted this in the Sightings thread, but figured I might as well share it here as well. This weekend was in Walmart Markville and they had their shelf reconfiguration chart posted in all of the action figure sections including Transformers. Transformers mentioned "Generations" legend, deluxe, voyager and leader displays. Can't recall exactly, but think it was 2 pegs legends, 4 pegs deluxe, 2 shelf rows voyager and 2 shelf rows leader. The sheet had an implementation date of May 2nd, which I guess means that it had been put out a bit late. So, this might be the reconfiguration for Titans Return and if so, maybe those figs will be showing up at Wally World earlier than we thought....anyone work at WM that check their system...?

Re: Titans Return street dates

The new modulars that drop at Walmart all the time. Basically this is just the planner at home office giving the appropriate space based on new packaging configurations. The actual items would be tough to find (but not impossilbe) as somtimes they show up as a GO or AD depending on the automatic re order. I wouldn't count on their systems. Example when Jetfire was coming out he showed up in the system as an AD item but never hit Walmart under that code and the price was wrong (showed at the 54.97 price point not the 30). One thing is department mengers rarely get mods done on time and the warehouse is brutally slow at sending out the items fast enough to fill them. Hope that helps answer your question.

Re: Titans Return street dates

There is no official street date for the TR line.

Re: Titans Return street dates

It'll show up when it shows up. I wouldn't count on BBTS or anywhere being 'first' with something like this. One day they won't be there and then the next they will.

I'm betting on the first sightings being within the next two-three weeks.

Re: Titans Return street dates

Wouldn't be shocked either if there are retail sightings prior to places like BBTS getting in their stock. I'm guessing we'll see stuff in the 2-3 weeks, especially considering that Walmart and TRU are doing their best to get rid of the remaining CW stock.

Re: Titans Return street dates

Reconfiguration charts don't mean squat at Walmart, it can be months between the time they're posted and the time new toys actually appear on the shelves. Happens all the time.
