Soo...See any Starscream masterpieces Back there...J/K Or do you know if its on order or when it will come in..I know ive heard September-December. Come on someone has to know..And if there were any STarscream MP released anywhere in the US someone wouldve had to have bought one or since him..

Autobot032, I am talking form personal experience from calling the 800 # and multiple store visits, as I have never visited a Wal-Mart with Loki's family members working at it I did not tread any where near his family.

This is all just silly, we never believe corporate about things as it is usually incorrect if not fictional information given by hourly paid support that has no clue of the actual schedules, shipping, or inner workings of a business.

True or false, their is no reason to trust or not trust a corporate giant when you call and ask for any specific information, as they are pre-programmed to give you large generalized responses.

Eh, don't worry about my family. Yeah, my Sister-in-law works at Wal-Mart, and she says much worse about the employees than you guys have. According to her, Wal-Mart has a quota to fill of at least 90% morons employeed.

She knows that most everyone considers WM Employees to be one step up from "Special".

teroh1988, you must work at the most efficient Wal-Mart in the world. I deliver to three Wal-Marts, twice a week, and have personally seen pallets of toys come in off the truck, get stuck on the highest rack in the backroom and sit there for 3 whole months, still wrapped, untouched.

At one Wal-Mart the transformer section sat empty for 2 months and I kept watching a pallet in the back room that had at least 10 cases of Classics on it. They never even unwrapped that pallet, and one day it was gone, and there were no TF's on the floor. Guess it got returned to the DC because the product wasn't selling!

I wish i could find a pallet of classics in the back most of the stuff we get in every night goes on the shelves, the only thing we have in the racks is stuff thats not released yet

Seems similar to when the Walmart exc. Devastator and alt rumble and ravage came out. Scalpers, emails to Hasbro, stalking stores....and now all 3 of the above are just sitting at Wlamarts here, discounted to half price, and still, no one is buyng them. They're sitting right next to DVD Primes and bucket loads of movie toys.

Will noone here ever learn to just be patient? Being eager to get something is one thing, but I think a lot of us take it to a whole different level.

Its fine with me if ya'll wanna get yuor panties in a bunch. However, it would save you a lot of time, stress and gas to just be patient. I can really only think of a handful of items, ever, that I did not eventually see on a store shelf.

Over the last 2 years, I did not see Tit UM, Alt Camshaft, Mirage, Grimlock. I think that may be it.

However, I did find the OP amusing and informational, in that its worth checking Walmarts when I am there to see if they will sell me one ahead of time.

Just my 2 pennies.

Wow that is one of the harshest and most uncalled for things i have seen posted on Seibertrons' forums.

Well, lets see, the greater the number of a particular item there is for sale, the less the demands.

Wow, that sounds just like supply and demand , now look at Ebay and see how few there are, meaning NOBODY BOUGHT 3 CASES of them. The dude who started this thread is just enticing an argument. B-)

LOL, thats right, cause EBAY is the ONLY sales market in which to sell TRANSFORMERS. You got me there dude.

Im not sure what they take into account in answering emails, but seeing as I provided a UPC code and multiple pictures of the item in question, I think I made their job a little easier.

Plus I email them all the time and the longest I had to wait for a response was 3 days.

Quick!!! Someone make "Optimus_SamWaltonRULEZ_Prime@gmail.com!"

I would venture a guess that "IhavestockinHasbro@hotmail.com" would get more attention.

My Walmart Scalper Story: Inside Job

Yesterday, when I was at the Collins Hill Walmart (just north of Atlanta in Gwinnett Co.), one of the employees was digging through the deluxes, picking out several BBs and a few other figures. It looked like he was a scalper in disguise. He had a really shifty look about him as I walked by. Later, he was also rifling the Star Wars figures too. No doubt those are all going to show up on eBay. I really wanted to call him out on it. Since I'll be regularly checking there for MP Animated SS, if I see him again, I might. I seriously doubt he was a "collector".

REMEMBER : TRUST NO ONE!
