Status Update At TARGET And Walmart - Things Will Change Soon Though!

Good morning Paul,

Just wanted to write in with a couple of store reports that may or may not be of interest. First up is Target. I have begun to see over the weekend at three of my local stores, that the cardboard endcap displays used to promote the launch of the TPM 3D line have been cleared of almost all Star Wars product and have been replaced with mixed product from Hasbro, Mattel, Spin Master etc. with only 3-4 pegs left devoted to Movie Heroes. Needless to say the regular section of Star Wars is now "toped off" with product.

Second is Walmart. My local store has just completed inventory and has performed yet another reset. The front of the boy's aisle is now dominated by Avengers, Ironman, Thor, Capt. America and other Marvel. Star Wars is now all the way at the end of the aisle. What is of interest to me though is that they have included a slot and shelf tag for the Discover The Force exclusive Battle Packs. Also, strangely, they have 8 pegs devoted to DTF carded figures in this new planogram (they had one on each peg, but could they possibly be expecting more to fill it out?). Clone Wars has now been given 8 devoted pegs, Vintage 4, and Movie Heroes is reduced down to 4. (See attached photos)

Have a good day :)
