It’s been a few months since my last blog post about Hasbro, and I think it’s about time we take another look at how things are going for Star Wars collectors. There’s a few topics that we can touch on, like product availability, the always looming price hikes, and the eventual Force Awakens line; however with all this in mind, I still make my weekly visits to Walmart and Target in hopes of finding something.
I’m not for sure if it’s more or less a tradition, but I still think I’ll be able to walk into stores and see a ton of figures on the pegs and vehicles on the shelves. Recently, I thought this dream might actually happen. The port strike in California had finally ended, and it appeared products may finally make it out to retailers. For about two weeks I actually even saw a few things pop up. My local Walmart started stocking several pegs of 5 POA figures, and then to my surprise, my smaller hometown Walmart received like four cases of 6 inch figures.
