I was at Wal-Mart yesterday and found 12 EpIII figures. When I got to the register I wasn't allowed to buy them because they were recalled. Wal-Mart is recalling all the EpIII stuff that should not be out yet. Do you think I should have been allowed to buy them. Even though I work at TRU and know they should not be out?

I could understand the recall since Lucasfilms probably would have flipped their collective lids at Wal-Mart. I agree with you though that if you were at the register with them in your cart, they should have just sold them to you and bit the bullet. They could have pulled all the others off the shelp then. I might have put up a bit of resistance if they pulled the rug out from under me at the register. Oh well, say la vee

I have heard of quite a few stores that have put them out. Some K-Marts, Wal-Marts and TRUs. I guess word has spread and they are cracking down. I don't see how the stockers could be so stupid or maybe they don't care. I am a stocker myself at TRU and the boxes clearly say DO NOT OPEN UNTIL APRIL 2. We haven't even gotten any EpIII stuff yet. I think TRU is delaying it until the week before.

Luckily my stores do not have them out yet. However, I did have the same thing happen to me at Wal0-Mart right before the AOTC toys were released. My Wal-Mart had them out. Karm was with me (about 6 years old at this time), and when they wouldn't let us buy them, he cried. So I went home and wrote a letter to the manager stating how they should not have them on the shelves yet if they were not available for opurchase and how upset my son was. Well a few days later I got a package in the mail. Three action figures and a ship! And a nice apologetic letter from the manager. So maybe if you complain you might get a surprise!

I'm too lazy to do that. It really isn't that big a deal to me. I can wait to get them. I'm sure I will be setting all the Star Wars stuff up and putting them out so I will get to pick out all the ones I want, which is all of them, before the store opens.

When I went to Target they Had both Obi-Wan's Starfighter and General Grevious Tank. I bought Obi-Wan's starfighter and they didn't stop me. Though the day after I bought them TheForce.net posted up that Target and other stores are calling back all EP.III toys.
Ree-Wi Zar'Whi, Sorry about them taking back all your EP.III guys, hopefully you can get them again on the 2nd.
