I have recently went to a Walmart in Clayton, Georgia on the way home from a Biltmore Estate vacation. I went to the toy section with my brother and went to the action figure aisle. I looked next to the Star Wars toys and I saw Marvel Packs of Attacktix. I thought nothing of it except that it had a sale price tag. I leaned closer to it and it said....... It was $1.50!

Freaking wal-mart.... My local store has had the boosters in the clearance isle for more than a month now, and the price has not dropped at all from the initial clearance mark down ($5.43).

Nice. I bought up all the boosters in my area when they hit $3. I was going to pick up a few more starters for giggles if they got that low, but they never went below $5, and all the clearance toys recently disappeared from the shelves. I'm personally hoping that I start seeing things pop up in the local discount stores soon, as they're likely to put them at the same price or lower.

That stinks! I just bought the last remaining MV boosters from my local Walmart, and they were definitely full price.

Interestingly, the K-Mart here keeps getting new packs in stock. I don't know if they have a few cases in the back, or they're just automatically ordering or what, but it's really helped me finis out M1/TF1/SW4. Apparently I'm not the only one into the game in my area, too, as I often run across packs at said K-Mart that are slit open at the bottom. It's cool and sad, as he's leaving behind a lot of cool stuff (got me a chrome Vader 4:11 the other day), but honestly, if you're leaving all that behind, you must not need a whole lot to begin with, so why is he opening them? Maybe he's the reason I don't have a Beast...

I remember seeing Yodas and Vaders galore when S1 was out. People would open the boosters and leave the figures laying around on the shelves. I was able to get so many prime figures because of this. I hate these new booster packs! I hardly ever find any open anymore.
