WM Xmas 2023 standie?

Man how awesome would it be if 2023's Xmas standie was all 1st wave United?

Remember when 1st wave Kingdom got the standie and the voyagers Primal & Cyclonus were price-errored down to thirty bucks? Such an awesome time, I want something like that to happen again

Those big aisle display standies; WM always busts out a transformers-themed one around Xmas every year

Example:

Would be cool. We did get a standie for Earthspark last year around this time.

Re: WM Xmas 2023 standie?

United wave 1 ?! Yeah that would be great, but thats dreaming. In my area at least. The Walmart’s around me finally just got rid of Legacy wave 1 and now they’re up to Legacy wave 3 for the deluxes (mainly Skullgrin, Pointblank and Crankcase and Evolution wave 2 for the voyager (Metalhawk mostly). Don’t remember if Ive seen Leaders past Galvatron. I mean Id love to see United for Christmas time, but we’re about 3-5 waves behind.

So in the end, no standie and no big black Friday deals on TFs at Walmart. And wave 1 of legacy evolution is still nowhere in sight

There’s still plenty of time for them to stuff an empty standie with figs off the shelf that they already had, take heart!

Re: WM Xmas 2023 standie?

... blech, I guess they're not doing one this Xmas season

There's one that has some TFs on it, @ the local WM - but it's very clearly just a bunch of assorted different toys tacked onto em by store staff

Plus the standie itself isn't branded or anything (ie. "Legacy:United" or last year's "EarthSpark" one, etc)

How disappointing - wonder if this means United wave 1 won't see a ton of distribution (similar to Evo)

Re: WM Xmas 2023 standie?

So, may be misunderstanding something, but are you mentioning the standie in the hopes it is stalked to the brim, or do some people collect these kinds of things.


It's probably a part of Hasbro's vision of the franchise that will end up with a lot of gaps, even though ads are also made or approved by Hasbro.
