It appears that even Entertainment Earth couldn’t save this from hitting clearance chains as the previous Walmart Exclusive Red Resistance A-wing has started to hit Ross stores in Los Angeles for $7.99.
Twitter follower Bossk’s Bounty has posted a YouTube review of the upcoming Walmart Exclusive TVC Jabba’s Palace Adventure Set from Hasbro. It looks fantastic overall and looks to be a great value for the price point. The review also confirms the VC numbers for Han Solo (Carbonite) and Ree-Yees as VC136 and VC137 respectively.
Walmart stores are starting to rollback prices on both TVC and TBS figures – hopefully this means they are trying to make room for newer product. Perhaps we might even see further reductions over the next month or two if this first round of rollbacks doesn’t help clear some significant peg space.
Those one or two TVC TIE Fighters you’ve been seeing on the shelf at your local Walmart may be turning into an entire fleet soon, as St. Louis area Walmarts have been suddenly receiving mass quantities of this ship. Let us know if you’re seeing the same thing.
Personal Note: $79 is just too high of a price for this ship… would be surprised if these aren’t on rollback / clearance before too long.
Per our link reveal a couple weeks ago, Walmart has populated the page for their Exclusive Jabba’s Palace Adventure Set. The price is set at $49.67. Hopefully it will be available for order soon.
Looks like Hasbro’s dipping back into the orange line 3.75″ Black Series again as a new listing has popped up on Walmart.com via Brickseek for a Luke Skywalker (Yavin Ceremony) figure for the Vintage Collection. No word yet on exclusivity. On a related note, I wouldn’t be surprised to see a 6″ version of this figure before too long.
We’ve read and received several reports that the long-delayed Walmart Exclusive 3.75” TVC Mimban Stormtrooper has finally started to hit stores. The image above was from a store in Atlanta, GA. via darthdj666.
Update: if you’re looking to use Brickseek as a method of tracking these down, be sure to use the regular assortment code for the Vintage Collection (239252624) as the Mimban Stormtrooper quantities are tied to that number rather than its unique product SKU.
For those looking to get an early jump on the upcoming Walmart Exclusive TVC Jabba’s Palace Adventure Set, bookmark this placeholder as it just became active tonight, although not available to order. This set also includes a TVC carded Ree-Yees and Han Solo with Carbonite Block
