I like the look of this set. I'm in for two.
-
I'll buy one, but it would be nice if they'd sell a 5 pack of the bugs...
-
I'm probably good for three of these, at least. The two figures are cool, but I'm really excited about the spiders. But the price tag stings a little bit.
-
Yeah, I don't want to spend $25+ for a spider and extra Mando's.
-
According to this week's Bring Home the Bounty, this set will be going up for pre-order tomorrow, 12/8, at 10am PT / 1pm ET. $26.49 MSRP.

Thanks for the update!

That link is not working.
*Edit* - Since it isn't live yet, no worries.

Link is now active, but shows out of stock.

Page has been updated to include photo.

So 3 of the 4 were available before the start time, the other one isn't available after the start time...

Looks like this day ends in Y.

While waiting, I preordered the deluxe figures again just in case my earlier order is cancelled and purchased two darksabers for my kids (they are on rollback right now).
-
An hour later....
-
Yeah....this is getting ridiculous. Maybe this one really wasn't slated to be released today?
-
Just the afternoon I was hoping for.......
-
Wasn't the original posting of the Walmart TVC mando pack similar to this? I feel like it didn't post until around 4pm central time even though it was announced for noon central time.
-
I've moved on. Every time I pick up my phone I'll check, but no sitting around anymore...
-
Still unavailable but the product imagery seems to have been replaced with an “Only Available at Walmart” bug…
-
I guess we should check in every day at 10 am PST and see if it's available. :-\
-
Now up for pre-order - go get it!

Now up for preorder
-
Thanks guys! Managed to pick up two!
-
I also ordered two. The interesting thing? At checkout it indicated that these would be delivered by the 11th.
-
Mine says December 15. I'd figured it would be June or something.
-
Annnnnnnnd... out of stock.
-
Mando Spider Set was available this morning for about an hour. Anyone grab an extra? Its sold out now.

ARGH!!!!

I bought two in hopes of assuring at least 1 nice card (no guarantees, obviously), but I can sell you my extra if you don't find a local.

Co-signed. That was quick. :-\
Frustrating to have missed this after checking several times throughout the day yesterday.

Thanks for the heads up Jeff. I grabbed one and a GoT Funko Pop I needed so that I could get under the free shipping minimum.
-
Was able to grab this item thanks to Jeff!
-
The SpiderMandos are back in stock!

Looking at my account on Walmart's website is leading me to believe that this arriving tomorrow is not going to happen.

Same! But then it seems like it's not quite as bad as Amazon listing that Black Series Deluxe TBOBF Boba Fett, and the estimated delivery date was a few days BEFORE the listing even went live.

My Fett says it's coming from Amazon in almost a year from now
-
Yeah, when I preordered, I saw a December date and got excited... and then I saw the year. :-\ Pretty much a whole year's wait.

I don't see the year listed on my order.

These are showing up in stores...I'm going to go out on a limb and assume it's this year! ;D

On Pulse, the TBS Fett was list as Dec 2022.

Different discussion. ;)
-
I keep seeing reports of these showing up, and my order just says delayed.
Anyone else hear anything different?

They probably put all of ours out in the shelves.

Same here. Is this another round of preorder them when they first went up only for Walmart to cancel them?
-
Got a shipping notice for this this morning.
Do we know if this Mando and Grogu is any different than previous releases, or did they just convince me to buy another one for a couple of spiders?

Mando - VC166 with Season 2 armor updates = new knee/leg armor (aka reworked legs) plus snowy deco repaint
Grogu - supposed to be a new headsculpt according to Hasbro; snowy deco on body
-
Ah, so just different enough for dupes who collect how I do. I'm starting to think Hasbro is onto me.
-
Got my shipping notice for this.... and also for several other preorders. My wife is going to give me the evil eye with all these individual figures showing up over the next week.
-
Mine arrived today. And both in really good condition! Shocking for a Walmart exclusive.
If someone got theirs mangled by Walmart and wants to trade a non-mint Mando & Grogu for a mint one, LMK.
-
I ordered two of these thinking I'd get some extra spiders and sell or trade the Mando, and they only sent me one. I chatted with them, they said it was an error and they could only offer a refund. Oh well!
Also, it was crushed.

Ah, Walmart. Always an adventure on shipping.
I saw on Twitter someone who ordered FOUR of them hoping to get a boxed shipment and of course WM crammed all 4 into a large padded mailer bag so all 4 arrived damaged. Then another Twitter user who ordered one to open, which was shipped in a box and arrived mint because of course that's what happened.
I am still waiting on the FedEx to bring me mine...
-
I got 2 today neither in mint condition, but 1 I can live with. Apparently, shippers have never played Tetris and only know how to box them front to back instead of face to face.
-
Mine came padded in a box large enough to fit the toy. Its super mint, logically, because I'm an opener...
-
Very happy to get these. My two also came in a larger box with air packets. Cardback is thick though one is dinged on a corner. Will open both this weekend.
Did we really pay ~$27 for each? :o

Ditto - correctly sized box, filled with air pillow padding. Arrived nice and minty and here I'm just going to rip it open.
-
The box I got was plenty large, undamaged... and there were a few air packets in there too. I'm assuming mine was crushed before it went into the box. I opened it anyway, so no big deal.
-
Mine showed up today and I'm really happy with them. They showed up in good condition and it didn't look like they drove over the box with the truck! ;D

VC211 The Mandalorian & Grogu with Spiders (https://www.entertainmentearth.com/product/hsf5322?id=JE-405087801)

Mando Kries Mando’s are marked down to $15.90 on Walmart.com.
At that price I just bought three sets of extra spiders and figure I can sell the Mando’s later.
-
Thanks for pointing that out...the price difference was enough to get me to finally bite on this one. Not at all essential in my eyes, but I can take some of those Ice Spiders.
-
Too bad that Mando is so scene specific. It's a great figure!
I'm not brave enough to try and take the snow effects off.
-
I bought a couple more - to army build the spiders of all things, LOL!
-
To hell with it, I like the spiders at this price so much I just bought 3 more.
-
They dropped the Mando Kriess set down to $11.92. I just ordered another three and am trying to talk myself out of buying more. :o
-
Walmart raised these back up to $19.87 but I bought six more sets at $11.92. I think I’m set on spiders, but if they drop again…
-
Three more sets on the way at the lower price...

They make some sprays for that... (https://www.amazon.com/Raid-Max-Spider-Scorpion-Killer/dp/B0043GLAE2)
