Simple question to start us off: Have you seen the Star Raiders line at your local US Walmart? I ask because the answers given to that question so far have been nothing but frustrating or confusing. While Walmart has gotten its stock for distribution, they've only used it so far to fulfill online orders. And there's a lot of stock online with both Road Pig and the Thundertron leader set still available for purchase.

That last bit is a rarity as Walmart will sell out of exclusives online, with the bulk of stock going to stores instead. However, these toys have been available and shipping from their website but they have yet to be found in stores... or have they?

With the toys shipping from the Walmart website, fans got excited to find these exclusives in stores. But that lead to frustration since the hunt resulted next to no sightings. What was found was confusing and has lead to some misinformation being spread by other news sites. The few toys from the Star Raiders capsule that were found were never found with casemates, but as single examples, and often times discounted too. Like the sighting below which just so happens to have the 2 products that have finally been shipping from Walmart.com.

It most likely means that these are returns and them being discounted is due to Walmart not having these skus on the planogram (no designated space on the shelf). We tend to see that with older releases which no longer have a designated space on the shelf, but it's the same cause regardless. And that is extra confusing and frustrating since it means that as of right now there is no plan to have these toys on shelves.

That also means that any sighting being shared online is not legitimate as it does not indicate that this line is being distributed to stores. It instead simply means that fans are returning toys they purchased online. So in the end, there is no concrete evidence that this line is being distributed to stores right now. We have no real sighting of this Star Raiders line in US Walmarts so far.

Let us know how your experience has been with this exclusive subline and if you have found it in a decent amount in your area (if you are in the US). Who knows, maybe one of you has a sighting of a non returned item to share.

So far, only saw Ferak in stores and picked him up. Just checked Walmart online and he's available on there as well as the Thundertron pack mentioned in the article.

I couldn't find them at my local Walmart yet, so I instead got Ferak with Marvel Legends Venom online. I have a feeling the other exclusives won't be any easier to get apart from Thundertron and Road Pig.

Hence why his original toy was redecoed (with no retooling) into Leo Prime.

Fans seemed real quick to correct my youtube review and say he's a liger.

I think Walmart simply can't handle two exclusive lines at once. Right now they're focused on TFOne and its exclusives leaving nowhere to put another set of exclusives in an already crowded toy aisle. My local Walmart had a big display set up in the aisle, but a week later they've already taken it down and moved all the figures to the Transformers section packing what space there was. There simply isn't anywhere to put Star Raiders right now.

Must've been a bunch of Zoids fans who think any big white and blue cat is a liger.

I know some associates who work for Walmart in the toy section. They have not heard of this line, have zero clue what it is. I've shown them pictures and articles and still nothing. I had to buy the 3 pack off of walmart.com. took a pic of the bar code. Their hand helds couldn't find the upc... that's very odd for a store exclusively you can buy online

Got Lockdown and Roadpig shipped to me directly, i didn't think Id see them in stores. I do want Calcitron, but not wiling to fork over the funds for the whole set, then try to sell off the others. I've done that many times, and its fine when you have expendable funds. I'm in a bit of a crunch right now. so either I can get it cheap from someone selling individually on eBay, or not at all, which is fine.

That's what I did. I got all but Thundertron from Pulse, and thankfully walmart delivered my in-stock thundertron purchase next day.

Which is also funny since I have not seen even a shelf for them yet

Looks like it since these toys are not on the planogram and returns get liquidated instantly so as to not be in stores.

Or, they will be stocked at the next reset (so 3 months from now)

Since we're on the topic of incompetent retailers, does the lack of any exclusive figure for Walgreens this year mean they finally realised that they should not get exclusives and bowed out themselves? Or do you think Hasbro got fed up with them and told them no more?

Unless they also give us Man-O-War, Buggyman, and Rest-Q (on the right side column of the pic below).

Though, unlike the first six, these extra three never got G1 Mini-Bot mold toys, just story art.

Hasbro doesn't really care if this stuff gets into stores, they get paid regardless upfront when it comes to exclusives. Of course they'd prefer everything they make gets into store and save them the headache of angry fans, but as they've done in the past they're more than willing to say "take it up with the store" and wash their hands of it.

Has Walgreens announced any exclusives at all this year?

I'll share pictures later, but I did find Road Pig and Thundertron at my local walmart last night, a surprise to be sure

Posted by -Kanrabat- on September 12th, 2024 @ 11:59am CDT

Road Pig is awesome and is an excellent use of the mold with great colors.

But the Thundertron set was just mid for me. I have no attachment to the bat and I found Thundertron to be horrible. The bot is great, but the beast is sad. Also, what's up with the detachable butt-plate? A missed opportunity to be a shield for sure.

For me, the value of the Thundertron set is for the "ice" Rocklord. It was worth buying just for him.

Especially worth it because I ended up getting back almost half of what I paid by selling Thundertron and his bat to my local geek store for store credit.

Now, I need that second Rock bike for my rocklords crew. Plus, that rockcopter could use a repaint or two.

That part of the toy coverage went by so fast.

In fact, the whole Transformers segment felt like it was on Fast Forward, rushing to get through everything with no time to really digest it all.

Everything was running behind because they didn't leave proper time between segments for the trivia and Jordan's hosting bits. Since Transformers went last and had to be absolutely done by 4pm they had to rush through everything. I'm guessing that was by design since anything they didn't do they could do next week.

Could be worse, the G.I.Joe team screwed up their time management so badly they didn't have time for new figure announcement render reveals! They said they'd put them online today instead but didn't say where.

Yeah, I know they are the same guy in the cartoon, but the toys were very very different.

Sad, he don't come with his mini-con. But alas, no retail release of Armada guys has yet... so...

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice.

Speaking of exclusives, I secured my pre-order of Dinoking. He's expensive as fuk, but the fact that the shipping is FREE for some strange reasons help.
Gone are the days of the mandatory 25$US shipping fee for a paperclip!

While Pulse has sold out of several of the new Legacy reveals, there are still preorders available through Amazon, so we posted links to those below. We also have official images of the reveals. While the repacked figures have nothing new to them, the packaging will be different than before. Galaxy Shuttle goes from a closed box to an open box, for instance. These won't have plastic windows, instead that kind of packaging will be returning for the upcoming Age of the Primes line.

I pre-ordered both G2 Breakdown and Armada Universe Wheeljack. Unsurprisingly, Cosmos is already sold out at Amazon.ca. (not that I need it.)

I ridiculised Legacy Blitzwing until I had it in hand. He wasn't so bad. So, before dismissing Overcharge, I have to admit that he rocks those colors. I may not pre-order him, but I'll keep an eye out for a potential sale.

Notice that Galaxy Shuttle has lost the "Victory Universe" part of his name on his packaging that his Velocitron release previously had.
