Here is a smaller version of that shot that I copied and uploaded to flikr. The image insertion control is one to the left of the url insertion control. It has an icon inside that looks like a framed picture.

Man, If I found a sale on these droid factory sets like this, I would have to clean em out.

I haven't seen those prices, lowest around here was $15.00,  at 2.50 I would buy them all for the Darktrooper pieces,

They're $17 here too with little chance of the price EVER going down because this Walmart almost never drops the prices on stuff.  Red clearance stickers usually mean its the full price but ready to be moved to aisles with other stuff they won't be recieving anymore.

agreed, but lets make a pack, if we do find a cache of them for 2.50, we buy them up for ISY< :)


I wanted a darktrooper, but not enough to spend 40-80 bucks on him, lol.

I wonder how long til the BAD stuff shows up single carded, anyway?

P.S.  the WM here never got the Droid Factory sets.  Until very recently.  And now, well, there's a lot.  No, we're not swimming in them but 2 more shipments and we might be.

 for $17 for each set, is the big droid really worth it?

I checked a semi-local WalMart last week.  They do in fact have two Dark Trooper packs left, on clearance - at $17.

Clearance, huh?  Is that a hint of sarcasm I see in your post?   :)  Evidently it's a marketing plan that gets them results.

I seen some on clearance for $15 last week. Still not a clearance price, if you ask me. no wonder they are still there.

Sarcasm by the bulk-freighter-load is our specialty!

In a moment of weakness I picked the entire line of this up "on Sale" at $15 a box... but at least I managed to finish one DarkTrooper.... and that was shortly after its release. Now you find the occassional single pack, at the ridiculous sale price.
Been buying pieces for another Darktrooper on Ebay and am now only lacking the backpack piece.
I really liked almost every one of these figures even though they were just straight repacks with fodder swaps, but the droids were all great.
Picked up 2 more BL droids and tried for more I5's to no avail.
