Walmart Easter Shipment

Great things come in mysterious miniature or pint sized packages, but which great thing will it be? It's all a mystery until you open one. Then the fun begins.

Walmart Easter Shipment

Postby Gothamite » Sun Apr 23, 2017 12:56 am

The ones that were sent to stores for Easter baskets are being clearanced for $3 each. I saw a lot of DC Super Heroes and My Little Pony boxes. The X-Men ones might be $3 as well. I didn't see any Beauty and the Beast boxes, but they're probably being clearanced too since there weren't any in the regular Funko display in the toy aisles.

Well, I ended up with everything except for Harley's hyena and Supergirl's cat. Will wait for GameStop and Hot Topic to clearance their inventory before trying my luck with their exclusives. O:)

No such luck at mine. :( Power Ponies were $4, Beauty & the Beast were $4.50. Everything else was still regular price. I did pick up this super buff pony though! :cheers:

That is one of the most hilarious minis I have ever seen! I am not current with MLP. Do you know who or what this character is?

I know absolutely nothing about MLP but according to my niece, this is some version of Fluttershy (and I don't even know if she knows....she's 4!). But I do know when these came out I remember someone here saying this was the heaviest mini in the case. My Walmart had them loose on the shelf in the clearance section so I just shook them all and took the heaviest one (only because I like the hilarity of this pony also lol )

A store we stopped at had the same pricing, but we did find a Cogsworth for $4.50 so that was worth it! Now we're just missing a Garderobe for that set.

It could be YMMV depending on what each store's managers want to clearance. I came across a store that was finally clearancing their Exclusive Dorbz (Batgirl, Princess Jasmine, Abu, Strawberry Shortcake) for $2. However, another store near me had them on clearance for $1 each way back in January.

Well, QC was questionable (alas). I saw six Batgirls but passed on all of them. [-(

The QC on ALL of them were questionable. If you weren't careful, you could easily pick up a really bad one. My Walmart still has them for $5 (even ZEA Batman!) unless the price has dropped recently.

Yeah, it's frustrating. I like Dorbz because they're usually hefty for their size and price, but what's up with the mis-aligned pieces, excess glue, and frequently damaged arms? Many arms have stress fractures from being clamped too hard during the manufacturing process.

My theory is, since Walmart had just gotten big into the Funko game, those particular series were rush produced to make sure Walmart (most of them anyway) had them to tie in with their new Funko sections. I've never had an issue with Dorbz QC in general, though.

Came across another Walmart with $3 DC Super Heroes and Pets. Also ran into a Walmart that had them priced at $2.50, but the only thing left was the empty cardboard display case, lol.

The hyena scales really well with the Rock Candy HQ.

I think at this point, all my local one has is Strawberry Shortcake but I'll double-check today! If not, I visit several area Walmarts throughout the week and will check.
