  • The Valaverse crew took a break from the DFW GI Joe and Action Figure show to go toy hunting with Bobby Vala at a Grapevine, Texas Walmart.
    Jordan smelled bad so he bought four bars of soap while we were there.

    Does your Walmart have Classified Series?

      That is my Walmart! lol If there is any, it's usually on the lower shelves at that store. Not the very bottom but the next one up.

      Of the four Walmarts near my house, two will have some Classified figures, one will have a single Classified figure and the other will only have a peg warming Snake Eyes and Timber two pack in a beat up box from 2022.

    8 Walmarts in my area, only 1 still carries classified, MOTU, and McFarlane. I noticed at least 2 stores consolidated and replaced a third of the figure aisle with plushies, and the only Marvel Legends around is the infinity saga wave which looks destined for Ollies. On a side note, I would love to know who thought everyone was going to want to army build Lady Jaye and signed off on producing a million of them. I still see them in the clearance aisle for $4, they can't give her away! 🙄

    At Walmarts around me haven't put classifieds on pegs since shipwreck and rock n roll. Same with marvel legends...the marvels movie figures were the last ones I saw on pegs. Since then ...nothing.
    Target is pretty much the same too.

    The Walmarts near where I live up here in Vancouver look even worse than that. Other than some wrestling figs, Transformers and maybe a couple Star Wars you don't ever see any Joe's, Legends, DC/McFarlane or Turtles at all. Mostly just a bunch of no name cheap ass junk toys for normie parents to disappoint their kids with. 😂

  • @ThatOneWookiee

    How on earth didnyou find a Walmart that well stocked in the Toy department? My Walmart has a few items, like the Star Wars figures and Transformers, but I think that is because they are not selling as well. Just stagnant toylines.

    Yup, globally Transformers outsells the shit out of most other figure stuff (as in chain stores) particularly when you include the actual rest of the world such as UK, Asia, Oz etc. So even in the ass end of the world in perth we get ACTUAL toys on shelves, and they always have a dedicated space.

    In the UK Hasbro burnt bridges with Joes not at retail here since Rise of Cobra wave 1 lol Online retail only for Joes and then Hasbro removed them from that and Pulse only unless you want to pay "import" fees. Best of all if you search Joes on our biggest toy place you get Corps :P

    Currently 60 to 70 percent of wal marts do not carry/are not traited for classified. Wal Mart has been increasing the amount of stores that do not carry classified every year. It will not surprise me at all if next year they stop carrying classifieds all together!!

    The Walmart closest to home actually has a good GI Joe selection, both Retro Cards and main Classified. That said another one is just like this video: No Joe
    Also to answer Bobby's question about that Kurt Angle figure, it's actually pretty solid, only issue is they made him a little ripped in the torso, but it's not the worst example Mattel did (Ruthless Aggression Eddie Guerrero is insanely huge)
