This past weekend I had tried to go out and get some of the new DC Universe Classics Walmart exclusives. Walmart now is carrying both the new Wave 10 with the Joker as well as the DCUC 5 Pack with Batman and Superman that I've been after. Here's the fruits of my labor:
As you can see, no DCUC 5 packs. Just a big gapping empty hole. Now, you could say to me, that they've sold out. Maybe they did. However, this has been the case EVERY TIME I've went to this and any other Walmart. They never have any. Notice, they have stacks of DCIH packs though... Because nobody buys that crap. Well at least they had some DCUC singles, right?
Nope. Not a single figure. Again, this isn't a one off instance. This is what happens every time I got to these stores. Heck, I even asked a Walmart employee to go back and see if they had them and to my surprise they did go back and actually looked... But nothing. You may notice that near the big empty DCUC holes is rows of DCIH (because it doesn't sell) and rows of Marvel Universe that has been replinished numourous times.
Mattel, I can't buy "Walmart Exclusive" figures if they NEVER have them. Some of my Walmart still don't even carry the 5 packs and the ones that "do" are always stocked with these invisible variants.
I'll defer to Oscar Rogers on this...

FIX IT!
