I cleaned out my Walmart. They dropped the last of the XD to $3 and I got more of the last D-Day figures.

No more XD

Cleaned out all the Wal-Marts in my AO. I got several copies of the 30 cal machine gunners, snipers, and and German assault gunners. One each on the DAK artillery crewman, machine gunner, Pvt. Bauer, Lt. Ludwick, and picked up Sgt. Barnes as well to round up my Platoon collection. Also got myself some 32X stuff I've been passing off for awhile; Chinese Infantry and DAKs, M59 Long Tom, Sherman Firefly Vc (stripped camo), Spitfire, and the P-51 Double Nuthin'.

Both WMs in my area that were pretty heavily stocked with 21c this past year are bare.No 1:18 or 1:32 anywhere.No pegs and nothing in clearance.I never even saw the sniper or 30 cal. figures.I'm gonna hit 2 superstores this weekend and see what I can find.

I made a half dozen phone calls to every store within 50 miles of me.I found a WM that actually had some 21C stuff left in the store.The lady I talked to didn't seem like she was interested in going back to check for specific items,so I figured I would just take a chance and drive down.
They had 5 figures,3 playsets in 1:32 scale ,and about 10 planes in 1:48.This is the first 1:32 scale set I have seen that has Fallschirmjager figs.Feels good to come home with something again.

Bremerton WA Walmart figures $3.00 each. They just got the .30 machine gunner and others and they went straight to clearance. Went ahead and picked up a set.Plus they had a ton of platoon.

Hey Trigger - where are you at in WI? I'm in Northern IL, so just wondering which WM was stocking that .30 cal gunner in your pic!

Found the same down south in Lacey; first time I have ever seen the sniper, MG gunner and assault gunner and get em for $3! Sad thing is it may be the last WM 21C buy I ever make.

Im in Nashotah WI. About 30 miles due west of Milwaukee.The store that I found the figures at was in Mukwonago,WI(53149).That's 23 miles south of where I am.Might be an hour or so from you depending on your exact location.

2 of the WM near me that had XD figures for $3 have raised the price back to $4.97

Yeah, i was going to get the ramaining DAK figs at my wal-mart but they raised the prices back, so i only got Bruno and some indy figs.

Same thing at my local WMs. Doesn't really make any sense, but at least I got four each of the new MG gunner, sniper and assault gunner.

General Blasto · Post by **General Blasto** » Tue Jan 20, 2009 7:39 am

I've found the same thing down here. Figures for $3.
So even though I don't do DAK, I get 'em anyway and am converting them into custom Tankers dressed in black. I'll do a post on the later

Still see some Baboon figures too, but I skip them and let 'em rot

Da General

Bad news: two of my AO WMs (Yelm and Lakewood) have ZERO 21C stocked after their reset.

jlspec · Post by **jlspec** » Wed Jan 21, 2009 10:51 am

3 out of 5 WM have no space for 21st Century after reset. @ have space but no product. These have stickers that say product expected 1/25 or 2/5. It will be interesting to see what shows up

any pegs with those empty spaces awaiting product or is it just shelves? The planograms I saw only had shelf space but the shelf had an area for 1/18 figures. The return to retail prices from clearance that some people are reporting would make sense if they're expecting new inventory.

keeping my fingers crossed for a 1/18 surprise...

No pegs just bottom shelf for 1/32 Planes, 1/32 vehicles, 1/32 Playsets, 1/18 figures

You know General, I had the same mindset until about a week ago. I have started buying up the Platoon or generic VN figures
Why? Because of their arms. Short sleeved arms, to be specific. I have started painting them and using them on the Germans.
I got the idea from The Woofer forever ago, but just now tried it myself.
Works great.

Also, I bought up all of the newest 21st 1/18 figures I found at WM for $3 as well. However, I haven't seen any other stuff, anywhere, since then.

Sad days.

Same here at one of my AO WMs. Strange seeing the 1/18 figures on the bottom shelf. I am thinking that won't last for long...

funny story .. one of the WMs near me had tons of DAK, Platoon, and the new series sniper etc for 1.00 last month - I bought a ton of figures. None were left. They just restocked three pegs of Platoon figures at regular price. 4.99. .....I laughed....

and laughed...

I have seen the same kind of thing happen with other kinds of product @ WM. They drop the price to 1.00 and sell what they have. The next week they have more @ full price!

I really don't know how they stay in business...
