Images of Repack Bundles Found on Walmart App

The Walmart app had shown multiple “bundles” for figures in Studio Series and Legacy. We had the codes found below but now we know the price point will be $24.97 for 2 deluxes and we have images for 3 of these 2 packs. They are all straight repacks including Tarantulas and Elita 1, Perceptor and Wheeljack, and Knockout and Wildrider.

I remember Walmart making 3 packs of DOTM deluxes for 15$CAN. They just took the cards, glue them on a cardboard, and warp the whole thing in plastic wrap.

Most of these packs were of 3 different Bumblebees! :lol:

We have more:

Unfortunately it seems there was some error in the naming, Sideways is packed with 86 Arcee and is labelled as 86 and TF6, whereas Bee and Jolt are the TF2 pack.

EDIT: No pics yet, but JTPrime is looking for pics for the TF5 pack and a second TF2 pack!

If this is real, this is an absolute steal. That's two for the price of one. I have one out of most of these sets but I might buy them and just sell off the duplicates.

I predict a lot of Knockouts, Skullgrins and Skids hitting eBay soon.

I don't buy a lot of Studio Series figures, but somehow I have every SS and Legacy figure listed so no savings for me. But no regrets, they're almost all great.

For me, instant skip. I already own 95% of all them. In this economy, no need for multiples.

But good price! Kids will be happy for Xmas this year

Why would they? These are repacks of existing mass retail product from two lines that are still ongoing. Cosmos was part of the Velocitron line, which was an exclusive line, has been dead since last year, and even had a completely different packaging style from these.

Also, most of these are shelfwarmers / overstocks.

And most of them will be again, even at those prices. Many of those are action on the pegs as singles at Walmarts currently. Especially those Arcees...

I skipped the Bumblebee movie Cybertron figures, and with these you can get five of them for $75. While B127 and Soundwave are still generally available, Cliffjumper can get up to $100 on eBay. Even still, might be worth jumping in.

Its funny, i own at least one figure out of pretty much every set here except for jazz and gnaw, and dead end and skullgrin. Definitely getting those 2.

Interestingly enough, I see no Breakdown thrown in, despite the other 3 Stunticons being there.

It's because all of the Legacy toys in this are from the OG Legacy line while Breakdown (despite keeping the OG Legacy packaging for visual consistency with the other Stunticons) was released in the first wave of Legacy Evolution toys.

I wonder why these two are bundled? Especially SS86 Gnaw.

I didn't mean why are they bundled "together." I meant, why are they bundled at all? Those two sold out pretty damn quickly, especially Gnaw. There shouldn't be any overstock.

Nope because these are not rereleases, they are excess stock that Hasbro never sold being bundled together and sold through a single UPC that Walmart is buying from Hasbro at an even steeper discount.

Cosmos being an exclusive had his entire stock pegged for Walmart. When Walmart chose to no longer stock the velocitron toys, the cosmos stock was instantly sold to liquidators, along with his wavemates. Hence why you see him at Ross.

So Hasbro's warehouse has already gotten rid of all the velocitron deluxes, now they are getting rid of the excess from 2022 that that they never sold to retailers.

Not in the US, where Gnaw was a pegwarmer. And all these bundle listings are for US walmarts. We don't know if they will be made available in other markets.

But anyways, Gnaw is getting rereleased in 2023.

Yup, that's why more weren't ordered, leaving Hasbro with lots if unsold stock that they are now bundling together and selling at a steep discount to Walmart.

It's very surprising that beloved classic TROOP BUILDER managed to pegwarm. :shock:

Not my fault, I think I got ten of them. I probably won't get any more when they're re-released.

Sweeps are classic troop builders and they pegwarmed in your walmarts too, along with the junkion.
