Mr. Spider-Woman Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 The Walmart closest to me had maybe 10-12 of the 7 for 10 bundles. I saw Eternals, Darth Vader, Edge of Spider-Verse, maybe a Venom cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuraddoRun Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 I visited a new (for me, not actually "new") Walmart recently and grabbed 3 7-for-$10 packs. Just sharing. I miss getting new packs, but it felt good to open these. jskillz95, srezvan, ADAMANTIUM and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toz Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Was in my local store last night.They are doing a complete store reset.Can't find anything and it's not due to be finished till june.They have 3 big isles of clearance items,mostly toys.I've checked the comic spot everytime I go in and still 3 full rows.Last night they had hit the card section and tightened it up and no comics.I checked the clearance isles and no comics.Wonder if they will reduce them or return them to the distributer ?

Shaun Hill Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Super annoying in my area as some of the local collectors rip open the packs then leave them if it doesn't have whatever they were hoping to flip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went back in yesterday & found the comics.One row of Marvel & one DC.Guess they had them in the back. Side question.Have these run their course? If you have them is it better to keep them unopened or see what's inside? If they reduce the ones they have now I may snatch them up.Last year I scored a bunch of the model kits they had reduced to $5 each.Sweet!

Keeping them sealed too long may cause eventual warping and corner bending. But there may be potential buyers who hope for big ratio or exclusive variants in unopened packs. But if potential buyers just want the Walmart exclusive books, then opening is best, probably. Personally, I've opened all mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masterlogan2000 Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 You can always take an unopened pack and open it up... You can never take an opened pack with loose books and have it factory sealed again. IMO, if you are unsure about opening or not opening, keep it sealed and let the next owner make the decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's X-Men Legends v2 (2022) #1. But as with a lot of these Walmart packs, it appears to be distinguishable from the standard direct market printing, which has a barcode at lower left. srezvan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where in the store do they typically have the comics? I am not even sure where to look. I have checked over by where the books are typically, lately I have noticed that they also have cards behind the counter. Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimik Posted yesterday at 02:48 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:48 PM Do they still include high ration variants in the Walmart packs like they used to when they first came out? I hit some 1:500 and 1:1000s in the first generation packs which were nice wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are the ones who make the packs and they dropped all their extras in there, including store exclusives, as an FU to Marvel. That's my take at least. masterlogan2000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had not seen them in Walmarts up here in Canada until then. Those packs were fantastically profitable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
