Re: Walmart Exclusive Masterpiece Skywarp Released at Canadian Retail

I don't suspect they'll be on the shelves for long. Give or take a week for general distribution stores. The bigger hubs may retain more.

The Evolution of Bumblebee 3 pack similarly was out for a week in my area and then was never seen again. I think Skywarp will be a similar oddity that sits oddly on the shelf and will have a small window for availability fitting in with neither ROTF or animated.

Re: Walmart Exclusive Masterpiece Skywarp Released at Canadian Retail

Don't wait/expect a Sale.

Starscream practically disappeared when he hit US retail. I only ever saw 2 on the shelves and I bought one.

I might be wrong, but these aren't going to be available in mass quantities like other Transformers, most Wal-Marts will probably get a shipment or two and that will be the last we see.

I could be wrong though.

Cheers!

Re: Walmart Exclusive Masterpiece Skywarp Released at Canadian Retail

Wow, didn't expect WalMart Canada to carry this. Guess they got a lot of shit after the whole Starscream thing.

Doesn't really matter to me though. I'm good with my Japanese version. I wish I had a friend who doesn't(and is in to Transformers) so I could pick one up and gift it to them. Well, maybe one guy I know, but he'd probably wouldn't be able to transform it. It'd probably get into jet mode and then go on the shelf and stay like that.

My guess is they realized the lost potential profits they missed out on due to skipping on a highly popular and similar figure

Re: Walmart Exclusive Masterpiece Skywarp Released at Canadian Retail

that is a great price for him, too bad i have the japanese one already, but i like the darker purple on japanese compared to the us one, but at 60, it's almost too good to pass up, might get a few for modding/ painting (MP coneheads )
