Forgive me if this is old news, and again that I don't have photographic evidence to back up my claim, but...

I was at a Walmart in Forest Lake, Mn,and noticed that the 20th Anniversary DVD Edition Optimus Prime had been moved into the 'clearance' area of the toy department. It had a little red price tag attatched to it which read "$50"...

I'd assumed that the figure would start appearing on sale at some point, but didn't expect it to go on clearance already...

While I don't intend to pick up one of these guys, I just might if they drop a bit lower... :-?

yeah its old news. Some people have reported as low as 10bucks, others 30. Only store around me with them has them marked down to 40...personally i'm holding out for it to hit 30 and i'll buy it.

I checked my Walmart one day and they were $30, and they had been $30 for about a week or 2 so I decided to wait until they went down a little more. I went to check the next day and they were all gone. Apparently they had been marked down that day again to $15 and somebody bought all of them that morning (planning on reselling maybe?..end sarcasm), so I missed my oppurtunity, along with the 4-5 Primuses they had just marked down to 15 as well. So, not ONLY did I miss Prime for 15bucks, I missed Primus as well for the same price. Scalpers...well, at least I have the 20th prime from 2 years ago..
