Well, the gauntlet was thrown down today...Wal-Mart has the 3 3/4" and 6" figures at clearance in Calgary...and I'm assuming across Canada. $5.00 a piece for either size.
I think its safe to say, the line bombed. Whether due to Playmates poor, and somewhat archaic approach to the toys, or that the movie didnt reach kids? Whatever the deal, they didnt do well up here. the Terminator toys look likely to repeat this pattern in a week or two.
I still hope for a second wave, including the booster packs....but it doesnt look very likely. I also hope this doesnt dissuade Diamond from their planned 3 3/4" TWOK figures?
