Early Revenge of the Sith Figs @ Walmart!

Postby Ethril » February 28th 2005 1:38 am

I found them this morning at Wal*mart.. Not the preview wave, but rather the wave with the battle droid, some Jedi, and Palpatine! :chewbacca:

Has anybody else had this happen yet? These are the figures that aren't supposed to be out until April.. I figure just some schmuck working for minimum wage who didn't know any better happened to put them out, and I was lucky enough to jump them before they were gone :mrgreen:

Not all wal-mart workers are dumb schmucks dumbass. It could have been some idiot customer who saw them on the pallet with big letters EPISODE 3 DO NOT OPEN UNTIL APRIL 2, and decided to open it when no one was looking. them and the Hot Wheels motherfuckers :whatevaho:

I made a thread about Wal-Mart being the place yesterday in collecting btw....

I used to work at Wal*mart.. (I was 17, so I have an excuse.. kind of).. they aren't all dumb schmucks.. I worked there, and hopefully I'm not.. However, based on experience, I think the dumb schmuck ratio is about 95%. Also, if it was on a pallet in the store where a customer could get to it at all, that would mean that a dumb schmuck employee had, in fact, fucked up. They have a special place in the back where they store timed releases.. I know cause I used to go in there to get DVD's weeks early :mrgreen:

No, it was probably put on the pallet by the ICS guys in receiving who just put whatever is on that truck. and that gets taken out.

He's right. Walmarts here in Phoenix have had them too. No clone troopers though and that is all I care about at this point.

Doesn't the register bar you from making the purchase, though?

I found 10 new ROTS figures tonight at Kroger's, a supermarket chain of all places.

I picked up the following figures:
Obi-Wan on Mustafar
Anakin w/ Cloak
Yoda
Palpatine in reddish outfit with BLUE (yes I said BLUE) saber
Clone Commander
Clone Pilot
Chewbacca
R2-D2
Darth Vader
General Grievous with exploding guts

I have photos if someone would be so kind as to host!
