These don’t appear to be a widespread markdown, but I came across some surprising prices on new TBS stuff at a St. Louis area Walmart today… seems to be yet another sign of trouble with the brand right now. Anyone else finding similar prices at their area Walmarts? Let us know!

Got Gordmans?
While out and about today, I swung by my local Gordmans store (thanks to a tip from St. Louis area collector Darth Stringfield) – and saw a huge amount of AT-ACT’s for $70.00 each (and a handful of basic Rogue One figures for $2.99 each).

You can also check to see if you have a Gordmans within reasonable driving distance from you on their store locator.
