Walmart Isn't the Only Retailer Sending Their Exclusives To Closeout Stores

Posted by Bounti76 Oct 9, 2023 at 9:07pm CDT 121,116 views
It was just within the last two weeks that figures from the Velocitron Speedia 500 collection started popping up at American discount retailer Ross stores, including thethe highly elusive Cosmos.

Now Target is sending Buzzworthy Bumblebee figures to Ross, as well. SS86 Cliffjumper, SS86 cartoon deco Kup, and SS B-127 were all found at a Ross store in West Bountiful, Utah.

And if that wasn't enough, Seibertronian Casey280 found Shattered Glass Slicer and Exo-Suit, a Hasbro Pulse exclusive, at a Ross in the Vintage Oaks Shopping Center in Novato, California. Photo proof is provided below.







So have you found any retailer exclusives at discount/closeout stores in your part of the world? Send us a photo and where you found them to us to let the Seibertron community know.

Additionally, Casey280 informs us that Slicer & Exo-Suit rang up at a mere $14.99, $35 less than his original price on Pulse.

Kids Warehouse has discounted Transformers. The prices aren't as good as Ross but they do have a $5 off $50 (SAVE5) and a $10 off $100 (SAVE10) coupon code. Here's the list sorted by newest arrivals.

If you go to the site there is a second page of more discounted Transformers.

A couple months ago I'd seen Buzzworthy Bumblebee Silverstreak at Ollie's for around $10

I’ve been to every Ross in the area looking for the Buzzworthy deluxes (specifically the Bayverse Bees), but never found any. I did find some of the repacked ROTB Energon Igniters though, the ROTF Megatron one is actually really good! Much more articulation and a more involved transformation than the others

Maybe "origin Jazz" will wind up there too. That's another one that was supposed to have been in Target, but never seems to have shown up...

Really? I'm surprised, I thought he was readily available, at least for a time, like Towline and the NEST guys.

Also, people on social media are correcting us about an assumption that these exclusives are not coming from the retailers but from Hasbro themselves. I'm wondering if that's just a technical correction or more.
Because an exclusive means that all units produced are sold to an exclusive retailer, nationally. So all orders are accounted for, everything's been bought. If, as they say, Hasbro is the one sending these exclusives to Ross, is it simply that Walmart/Target don't have space for all that they already ordered and thus are asking Hasbro to not ship them the rest of the order and just dump it on their behalf? Or is it product that was not ordered by Walmart afterall and Hasbro is themselves recuperating costs by dumping it for retailers?
The later doesnt make much sense to me since Hasbro could just sell their product online as they have in the past (either on e-bay or pulse).

Just wanted to know if people had more info on this, since i do want to get the news right.

Those BotBots vehicles are pretty neat, it's a shame that the distribution on that line was such a mess
