Thanks to a report by AFN member racerguy76 we now know that the new Walmart Exclusive Star Wars AT-ST (All Terrain Scout Transport) has been released at Canadian Retail.

The sighting was made at a Walmart in Alberta.

I wouldn't mind getting one of these. How much is it?
Hopefully that new Dewback will show up here soon, as well.

This is getting expensive; I haven't even gotten the turbo tank yet!

I didn't think the Dewback was coming to Canada. Thought I read that Walmart Canada didn't pick it up...

I'm assuming you got the AT-TE @ Square One? The rest of Canada doesn't see sales like that.. so I'm gonna have to pick this up ASAP!

Square One is kinda like the Land of OZ for the rest of the country. It's this fabled place with the awesome deals the rest the nation doesn't see.

$49.92 actually isn't a bad price for this, but I wont be picking it up either.:)

According to the Hasbro rep at the 6th Annual Canadian Action Figure Expo in Mississauga, Ontario back in September, he said that Walmart Canada passed on the exclusive Build-A-Droid wave.

However, he didn't say that Walmart Canada wouldn't carry the other Walmart exclusives, so I guess it's possible the Dewback may come here after all. :)

Is it those upcoming two packs (that build a darktrooper) that was passed on?

Whatever the case, I now hate everything about the concept of exclusives. Not that it really matters: the last time I saw new Star Wars toys in my Walmart was back in july.

Yep, Walmart Canada passed on those as well as the Walmart exclusive Evolutions box sets.

Too bad, I was interested in BD-17 and Whistler from those sets (but not as interested as I am in the dewback).

Anyway, I'm surprised over the lack of enthusiasm for the AT-ST. $50 doesn't seem too bad a deal for this thing. I guess that seeing it in person might change a persons' mind.

It suddenly strikes me as a bit absurd to think that $50 isn't a lot of money for a toy...

If it had been $40 I would have bought it. I's almost 1/2 the price of the turbo tank and no where near as much plastic. It does come with a figure. I dunno. When i only see a couple left I sure I'll buy it.

I've notice many $50 toy not selling these days. GIJoe Nightraven, Lego sets, Bumblebee helmets, any TRU TF exclusive. This may change as it gets closer to xmas.

It is worth the cash. Needs more weathering but I can do that myself. Very posable. Good value for the buck. The figure on the other hand... he is not so great.

Not that I was keen on grabbing it, I wanted the Dewback Patrol much more and never saw that around here either. Not even sure if the set was released in Canada. :confused:
