Wal-Mart Mystery Solved
|
To plagiarizer myself from your blog:
"Oye, this wangs chung, but I think I know exactly why Wal-mart isn't carrying them anymore. All the freaking Turtle variants that Playmates continues to produce (and nothing else...douche bags.) are freakin' peg warmers. Wal-mart is in the business of making money, and why keep a toy line around that only supplies endless variations on the same four flipping characters. Heck, maybe if more businesses follow Wally World's lead, Playmates may get it's act together and MAKE OTHER CHARACTERS!" |

Touche'. Heck it's not like some other, more fan oriented toymaker couldn't step in and fill the void. *coff*NECA*coff*

That really is a shame...
I haven't been to a Walmart (besides to run in and out as quickly as possible) for a bit now, and before that I didn't check the toys very often. Mostly because they carried about four figures max for TMNT. I wonder, does Target still carry the toys? Before FF started, they'd pretty much stopped carrying them around here. |
Ah, good. I hope other retailers follow suit.
Target does still carry them... For now. |

That said, I need to get off of my duff and see what they have. I still haven't even seen Sub-Sewers yet. |

Don't bother S there's nothing really out, I went out today after the dr's looking for that Mini dino set that Darth found but with no luck. I'm sure you'll go anyway let me know if you find anything cool, I'm still trying to hunt down a damn marvel legends spiral figure!:evil: |
Like I've probably said before I haven't bought a Playmates TMNT figure for myself since Movie Shredder...and I only have the 4 Turtles and Splinter in that particular wave...They haven't been producing what I wanted, and I've let them know with my wallet.
EDIT: Vaughn, you've seen new ML figures? Last wave I bought I think was Brood Queen. |

I used to buy all sorts of figures...and now...nothing. The last figures I actually bought were the Superman and Firestorm figures, and that was about 6 months ago.
|
*blinks* Wow, maybe Target stepped up... That'd be cool.

I've started working in the toy section at my local wal-mart and god is it messed up. I'm trying to put figures out that will sell while mixing box's with a few crappy things that won't, if only all stores had some one like that. |
