Hey guys,

Vallius here. Just wanted to share the experience I had tonight when stalking the Star Wars section of one of my local Wal-Marts. I was up there around eleven pm tonight trying to see if I could catch a stocker opening newer shipment. When I got to the isle a woman was there unloading some boxes from a skid, and on it I saw that there were 3 identical boxes marked "Saga Legends W1" and knew I had to ask her if she could open one up for me. She was more than happy to! I only wanted the Spacetrooper and Death Star Trooper so that's all I took to the register. Imagine my surprise then when they rang up for $1.00! That's right. One dollar. Uno. I was excited beyond belief. Was it a computer error? Are these not supposed to be out yet?

I went back into the store, picked up the others that she had put on the shelves and scanned them at the price-check area. Boba-Fett, Destroyer Droid, Super Battle Droid... all of them scanned at $1.00. I took them up to the register and bought them. Sure enough, they rang out for $1.00! I got 5 figures for 5 bucks. What a steal!

I'm guessing that maybe the old SL line was moved to a discounted system of some sort and they hadn't turned it back on or something. Or maybe they have a new SKU alloted to them and they had to be registered in the system before she was supposed to put them in the isle?

Just thought you'd like to see this!
