Where is the stock at Wal-Mart?
Where is this "Special Section" for Star Wars figures Hasblo told us Wal-Mart would have?
My home Wal-Mart hasn't recieved ANY shipment of figures since AUGUST!!!
All the other stores have nothing but Ketwal and Duros.

Yeah, I know. Luckily my Wal-Mart store finally put two measly hooks up with Star Wars figures. We are all suffering just because of all the stores being greedy and over-ordering Episode 1 stuff. Now those same stores are not carrying Star Wars, just so they don't get burned again.
Lately I have just been buying all my figures on-line, I can't find squat anymore at my stores, other then the occassionaly lucky find at Target.

Speaking of which, has anyone found the 12'' luke and yoda. They were supposed to be wal-mart exclusives weren't they, yet I only ever saw them online.

the only places i've seen the new luke and yoda are on e-bay and at brian's toys. both of these are from the overseas release, which came out last month. wal-mart takes their sweet time moving stuff through their distribution system. i thought the 100th 12 inch figure(luke) would never make it to wal-mart. but it eventually got there.
since this stuff is coming from asia, i like to keep an eye on the california just founds. when they get it, about a week or so later, the stuff makes it's way to my geographic location, texas.

My Wal-Mart has a six foot section with pegs full of the latest wave. That also includes Bacta Tank Luke, and the Shirtless Maul. The regular figures were only $5.00!! Keep checking, their bound to show up!
Although, I didn't see the 12" Luke and Yoda. But they did have the DS Trooper, ST Han, and DS Droid.

My Wally World has moved the POTJ figures into clearance isle and they discounted them to $5. I'm hoping that the will order the newer waves. Target has the Shimi wave only. :(

The Wal-Mart in my area put all of their POTJ into clearance in late August and marked down the prices for $3. Unfortunately they've had only 1 shipment of figs since then, the Ketwol Wave. They kept the prices at $3 and they flew off the shelves despite the fact they are pegwarmers. Since then there have been no sight of any new figures.
I suspect in January when the Tie Bomber hits the store, they will restock their shelves, but I don't expect to see any new figs for the Christmas season. :confused:
