Re: Walmart Exclusive Generation 1 Hot Rod released in Canada

Tags on the shelves doesn’t mean they arrived yet. Planograms are set ahead of time.

A guy from Kijiji told me he got his in Mississauga recently.

More than likely. Got Devie on eBay too. SS and minis I found at Wallie. Distribution in Ottawa/Gatineau sucks. Pretty bare without restock. Afterthought in the country. Billings Bridge Wallie had same shelf warmers for months with no restock. Bus fare saved covered the scalper mark up.

In this case, the price tags were on the shelves in advance, the item had not arrived yet.

Wallieworld teasing. Let the shelves be awash with G1 as it was in the days of my youth.

Well I'm good. Don't need to hunt until the next wave.

Re: Walmart Exclusive Generation 1 Hot Rod released in Canada

The boxes I saw @ WM here today were semi-destroyed. Creased. Bent sides. I guess if they put them online and ship them poorly like the Minibots, then they won't even need to try to damage them in-transit.

Re: Walmart Exclusive Generation 1 Hot Rod released in Canada

Happy with the 100% marked up one I bought on eBay. Mint condition. No more wasted Ottawa bus trips only to arrive to see bare shelves for him and Devie. Found SS and the minis. I'm good. Moving on and waiting for the next wave with great anticipation. Stocking here blows chunks in every room of a house. Like a world lost in time and space. Easier to find the Holy Grail or dark matter.

I read somewhere that they eventually fixed it.
