Walmarts in US and Canada Liquidating 2020 Transformers Toys

Went to 3 Walmarts near me today, 0-3 on finding any wave 2 Netflix and 0-3 on seeing any clearance.

There will be no clearance on these in my area because there are very little. What they NEED to clearance is Cyberverse, those are the ones cluttering up shelves not selling.

Also that pic has to be from Canada right? They don't sell Battlemasters at Walmarts in the US.

I went to three walmarts as well. Hoping to find an Allicon at these prices. I struck out as well. All that was left was Airwave and 1 of the three walmarts did not have discounts.

Definitely didn't see anything clearanced at Walmart yesterday. Hardly anything to mark down to begin with. And the current peg layout is highly questionable, leaving only one peg for WFC in the top left camera (with the Rollback tag on it) and none for NetFlix. The rest of the pegs are all Studio Series (or MV6 as they're still calling it on some tags). They even made a point of spreading out the few SS figures they had in an attempt to fill the pegs. They even squeezed in a fifth Cyberverse one step peg at the bottom right among the 7 SS pegs for no good reason.




There's a displaced Cliffjumper sitting on the Voyagers there, I put him back where he belongs after the photo.

That's a nice looking walmart tf section.

Only because they just restocked a bunch of the larger figures, there's hardly anything Deluxe class (aside from fresh stock of wave 4 Cyberverse). And then there's those Titan Guardians on the right, if they just cut those down to two pegs they could have two pegs free for Battle Masters and Micromasters. But no, gotta keep making space for the same figures they've been selling for seven years. Can't tell if it's the same, worse or better than when they stuck those eye sores in a shelf display and stopped selling all Leader class figures last year.

From my perspective you have the walmart G1 exusive readily available along with the walmart exclusive Netflix voyagers plus wave 4 of the cyberverse deluxes (which I don't have) so it's not half bad. Pretty sure many would be jealous if you posted this on a US facebook group.

There's a nice deal on Amazon.com right now. Transformers Toys Generations War for Cybertron Deluxe Fan-Vote Battle 3 Pack with Holo Mirage, Powerdasher Aragon, & Decepticon Impactor (IDW) is only $37.99 USD. That's 46% off from the original price. For those that don't have this set yet, it's a really good opportunity. Prime eligible.

Ahh...memories... I got that set last year around this time at that same price. I had seen it in the upper $40 range not too long ago, but what you reported- really is a great deal. Odd that this still exists, and the Autobot set from last year is still retail price, but the Skywarp set is long gone and goes for insane prices on the secondary market.

Skywarp was the biggest name out of the 3 sets (maybe Mirage too, but not Holo Mirage) and the only way he was available, so it isn't surprising that his set sold out that quickly and is getting scalped while the others lingered. What is surprising is that they are still lingering and that Amazon hasn't put them at a "make them go away" price yet.

I think $38 for 3 deluxes is pretty darn low . I wanted it last year just for Aragon, and would have been willing to pay close to $30 for him alone, I'm glad I held out, I gave Mirage and Impactor to my son. My collection is quite specialized, but every once in a while its nice to have something different thrown in there.

It didn't sell out that quickly, it just sold out, same with greenlight, unlike these. Everyone who placed their preorder got it and there was enough for everyone once it was released. The only ones who didn't get it (out of those that could in the first place) were those who were waiting for price drops. I was one of those.

Greenlight was a day one purchase for me, mostly because I wanted to complete Orthia (as I imagine would be for most people who wanted it). I do remember it lasting for a little while. I was able to snag the battlemasters from both Amazon sets separately, at quite a reasonable price. If TT Selects is in the business of reissuing past toys, as much as it would pain me, I would think an Orthia Selects release would get a far more positive fan response than the recent Volcanicus and Abominus offerings.

I'd still be paying almost 40 bucks for a head, so it looks like it's gonna be a pass for me, even at that price.

So sad lol I just got the impactor from this set off ebay for $25 (originally $35 but I had a $10 off coupon) and I wouldn't have minded paying the $38 for this set since I dont have a mirage or any weaponizers lol

Sounds like the right price these days, unless you go for the higher end escorts.

Friend to the site Elitabeth-1 has written to let us know of all that Five Below has to offer related to Transformers this holiday season, which make fun stocking stuffers. This is an American discount store chain where almost everything is $5 or less.

In the images sent we see Cyberverse one step toys, the cheaper evergreen styled toys, Botbots exclusives, Cyberverse scouts, Titan Masters and some apparel as well.

My 5-Belows have had this stuff for over a month! Guess I should've said something back when I was stocking up for my 3rd cousins in Illinois.

I remember when those One-Step changers were sorta hard to find.
