Yep. I got a Kup and two Vehicons, which turned into three Kups on the receipt because the Vehicons weren't in the system. Although they came from the same case. :-? WM always holds back new merch till after big sales to drum out the old stuff. Nothing new really.

I know from a guy who works at my local target that they are scurrying to get toys in because of higher demand this year. So perhaps wally world is having similar problems.
Wrestling is just a male soap opera, though less believable.

Every Walmart I've been to in the last 6 months or so has been like this. Most are still sitting on DOTM stock and haven't bothered with anything new. I've just about given up on even searching retail stores for toys anymore.

i know ours is getting in new stock its just the same stock each time -mostly bumblebee -seriously we do not need that many the wave 1 foc jazz prime and shockwave and a lot of the small crappy figures and botshots -we have gotten recently dreadwing i snapped that one up becuase its a great figure -but other wise i still haven't seen a change in stock same with target they have had the same stock for months now -i already bought the ratchet they had and the one knockout the walmart had -give me something - i really want a sargent kup so i can repaint it into something more interesting -though ive been thinking of doing that to the bumblebees because there are a lot of them and his face is kinda clueless looking might make good drones
