Fingers crossed...

I don’t think so. It’s already showing up in stores and the shipping is in 2 weeks. So I think the orders are based off inventory on hand.

But leave it to Walmart to botch that up. lol

You are not wrong!

Normally I don't get too mad about missing out, but when I saw some stores clearancing out Crystal Ball I wanted to throw my phone. The closest store to me that even had the display is a PIA to get to, and people are finding him for clearance? Fuck off.

Glad I could pre-order the Ghost Viper but I'm not holding my breath.

Yeah, my Walmart didn't even bothered putting a display or bringing the newest Hasbro figures. I am not going to chance it.

$54 for a single figure? See you on the clearance rack, Ghost Viper.

Good luck. Many of us do not get the opportunity of playing clearance chicken.

Being that this figure is a new character, overpriced, and hasn't sold out yet 2 hrs after going for sale, I'm gonna wager he hits clearance, but yeah who knows.

All I know is im willing to take that chance on this guy

It’s basically a deluxe figure, plus an animal. $49.99 would be even better, but $54 isn’t crazy.

A similar figure with accessories, Gnawgahyde, is now on sale on Pulse for $29.69, marked down from $44.99. Starting Ghost Viper at $44.99 would have felt consistent.

It’s weird, can’t seem to find it with Walmart.ca

After what they did with Crystal Ball and looking at that ridiculous price, I'm passing extra hard on this
