I'd tell my broker to "buy now." I think $49MM is more the second weekend. This one's gonna be a spreader.

Why is Target and Walmart already discounting these action figures before the film even releases?

:whatthe:

Usually, the figures come out way in advance of the movie, but I guess since this is a largely unknown property, it isn't selling and retailers are clearancing them, since it doesn't look like it's selling. Shame because it looks like the movie is tracking to be a success and kids may be out looking for these afterwards- only to find Katy at Target (that figure is pegwarming everywhere and is probably the worst selling Legends figure of all time).

They came out ages ago, and have been through a few clearances already. Nothing personal.

Never noticed the Trolls World neighbor until it was mentioned. That is not normal for Marvel action figures if you stroll through any Target or Walmart store.

That section is quite stocked and limited in sales discounts.

Why would anyone be surprised that Shang-Chi action figures aren't selling well?

The movie's not out yet.

Kids haven't seen it, don't know who the characters are and have no reason to buy the toys.

Sorry. Which degree and work experience is this now?

:baiting:

+1, movie was supposed to be released in Feb, they've probably been on stores shelves since then or before

Oh that is too cute. Imagine if someone posted that to one of your negative claims about a non-MCU movie?
