While cleaning out my hard drive, I came across some photos from December 2009 that I had snapped that showed what was on the pegs back then at various retailers. Head to the forums to check them out.
Personal Note: What a difference five years makes! What we see now, in my opinion, is the direct result of very poor management of the Star Wars brand since the 2012 line… questionable figure selections, shoddy case ratios, drops in quality, weird gimmicks aimed at kids, and focus away from the lifeblood of the line – the 3.75″ toys.
Now that the dust is starting to settle following the Christmas rush, retailers are beginning to mark down some items in the toy section as they prepare for the new year.
Among the items being cleared out is the Target exclusive Shadow Squadron set, being spotted at many Target stores for $35.00. Wal-Mart is also slashing prices on the Jakks Pacific 31″ figures, down to $20.00. We’ve even seen a report of the 31″ Vader being found at Target for as low as $5.00 and some of the Target exclusive Hot Wheels sets being marked down too.
