That, and they might be stuck behind a barrier of ERMAHGERD MAH CHELDHERD
... *ahem* Nostalgia filters aside, personally, I respect the G1 toys, but I am of the opinion that they are not 'good' toys, at least not by today's standards. I'm honestly surprised that the reissues sold at general retail sell well enough to people other than collectors to actually be worth making...

Even more curious - I contacted Hasbro to ask about this and this is the reply I got:
Daniel,
I apologize for the information you've located on the internet; however, the Titans Return Brainstorm is not an exclusive to any specific retailer. The information in the link you provided is not correct.

Nope, still don't believe it. He could've grabbed Brainstorm online and took a picture of him with the receipt of another TF purchase (It's not like the reciept says Brainstorm). Smartphones are more common than wallets, so why not take a picture of some Brainstorms on actual pegs in a Walmart aisle?

That theory would be a lot more believable if any of these figures had actually been sited at Walgreens already....
That's also a whole hell of a lot of trouble to go through just to troll fellow collectors, so it makes little sense to assume that's what happened without reason.
What's more likely?
a) Hasbro mistakenly sent WG Exclusive items to a Walmart?
b) This figure is not actually a WG Exclusive?
c) Someone found the figure, purchased it, drove to another store, purchased a different deluxe figure, and then took a picture to trick people about which store they got it at?
Uhmmmm I'm going to go with A or B there.
