This is why I believe Vintage Collection Star Wars collectors are holding on to a dream that will never come to pass. With everything being so expensive and Star Wars no longer being the king of toy merchandise, nobody is gonna rush to buy figures from background aliens from the Cantina scene outside of a few adult collectors. Those days are long gone. Especially considering that back in the Kenner days there was much, much less Star Wars media so they had to pluck from those background characters to pad the line. Now, with so much content, it's no longer a priority.

I dont think not all blame be on hasbro, but most of the blame should be at disney. Hasbro has licenses with disney to make toys. Disney will have most of what to say and what gets put out. Even on how much go out to concermers. This hurting hasbro more than disney. Disney just take whatever the profits they agreed to. Hasbro couldve lose lot more money if they made the Revia Lightsaber. Since they went with backing first. Later where they found out is wasnt good idea. Darth Raven Lightsaber had no backing and was released.

Disney used to have enough brand power to offload the cost of failure to merchandising partners and retailers. Now, toy manufacturers should force Disney to pay in advance for ever piece of merchandise they make. Call it the Tico Clause, and no, Disney, that's not a pitch for another Star Wars Christmas Special. Or, maybe it is. The sequel trilogy needs a Holiday Special.

I got upset when I worked retail. Stores buy all this extra trash and it stays on the shelves forever until they eventually throw it into a compactor. Then the higher-ups complain that the merch ain't selling and there is no room for the next faceout of merch, that won't sell.

[@wetdroidedition2549]

This is interesting. Are all those toys recycled then?

[@RoseKindred]

@@wetdroidedition2549 HAHA, no. That upsets me less than what we do to the clothing. Per contracts, all items must be destroyed before trashing. My first week working I think I had to destroy about 500 shirts. Cut right down the middle and back. From someone who wore the same clothing for 5-10 years, I almost cried that day. So many shelters and churches could have used them.

Worked at Toys r us right after high school for 2 years and then 28 years for Walmart. I've been a toy dept mgr as well as working in the claims dept. I assure you neither company destroyed nor placed the toy merch right into the trash compactor or the recycling bins. The merch generally stayed on the shelf, eventually selling at continued discount prices. If anything happened to be damaged, it was generally shipped back to Bentonville. Or if it's perishables, donated to the local food banks if it's still salvageable.

[@jorgeldejesus8465]

At this point my question is why Ollie's, 5 bellow, Dollar Tree, and similar discount stores buy boxes of this toy crap? Are Disney giving them for free? Or 40 boxes for $5? That's the mystery we need to know

Yeah, Disney has been consistently putting the cart before the horse. Instead of a movie becoming popular with popular characters, then people wanting to buy merchandise, Disney is expecting the reverse to work. Just like instead of the audience liking an actor, and that actor becoming popular and getting more roles, they want to choose an actor (for reasons that fit their agenda), give them high-profile starring roles, and expect/insist the audience like them.

Stan Lee is rolling in his grave

[@stevee8318]

My local 7/11 and Walgreens both have licensed Disney toys growing stale on their shelves. Ridiculous oversaturation.

[@user-js4zx1lr2u]

For the most part, Disney hasn't lost on their merchandizing. The plants that make the stuff haven't either. It's the retailers that are taking in the neck.

[@hanchiman]

Damn, I see the old classic Ghostbuster figures in there! I wish I can visit this store to buy them! Really nostaglic

[@mr.pressato]

Thought the same

[@hanchiman]

@@mr.pressato I still have Peter and Egon, but their proton pack weapons are gone. :/ shame that I don't live in US. Used to have the Ecto 1 with peter, ray and egon.

[@mr.pressato]

@@hanchiman I wish I knew they would be valuable when I was a Kid

[@hanchiman]

@@mr.pressato and I wish I knew Transformers (the original 1980 one made partially with real metal) would be a sought after collectors items. I basically killed Optimus Prime :(

[@goodoldbubba6620]

You're probably the only one at Target anyhow.

[@robertredhead7844]

No way that bandai kit is $4, must be on the wrong shelf

[@stevenschnepp576]

It's not that insane. BBTS has that kit for eighteen dollars.

[@mistertwisty1693]

Yeah honestly I would have bought it for that much. Razor Crest is cool, model kits are cool

[@DukeCityExplorer]

That Bandai ship generally goes in the electronics dept. Some lazy customer or employee just left it in the SW section of the toy drpt.

[@MarxPopstar69]

To be real. Alot of Bandai kits nowadays have the quality that's expected for 4 dollars.

[@jossshhh7347]

It must be so nice not having to worry about re stocking or cleaning up after customers with stores like that

[@thevanbeard]

I remember when Star Wars Black Series figures were the top tier.

[@sixmileswest]

Crazy Disney assumed, literally, every single kid would buy their products.

[@montymont5943]

While I agree that Spaceballs is the best parody there ever was. I can't believe people forget about Fanboys...

[@obsidian00]

Soooooooooooo good!

[@Code7Unltd]

Captain Harlock was better, and that was mostly about a pirate serving as captain over a group of individualists in space.

[@kyledurning]

If i were disney, facing this. I think i would recall all the unsold units, then donate them to kids hospitals. Hell that might even be a tax write off. Forget that, I want the stock to tumble more until star wars is sold off. I love star wars but will boycott the brand until it is no longer disney.

[@archangel0891]

Amen brother. Solidarity from 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@TonyMontanaDS]

Well, you went to Target, a company that has seen a 50% decline in sales, so there would be plenty of stuff there because no one is shopping at Target.

[@donaldvonglitchenberger4108]

I was at the boardwalk yesterday and I didn’t see one stuffed marvel toys or dolls as prizes for all the games. It was a lot of Mario, picachu and a ton of other random stuffed toys. Marvel doesn’t have the money anymore to stock these boardwalks anymore with their crap lol in past years marvel stuffed toys were the main rewards

[@rhedosaurus2251]

The Sheri-copters look like the original version of the GDI Orca fighter from the very first Command & Conquer game and Renegade.

[@runforestrunfpv4354]

I can look like GDI orca too with 3d printed modding.

[@Ganbre14]

We really be living in a timeline where knock off toys look more apealing to kids than this lol

[@robowarriorx]

I feel like some of these clearance pieces might make for viable kitbashes, that one Eternals figure would maybe make a cool Homelander, maybe some of those Legends figures have potential to become something, other than landfill

[@All-Fur-Coat_No-Trousers]

I wanna know what kinda hopeless, bed-wettin, fire-startin, animal-abusin child asks their state appointed guardian for a Vice Admiral Holdo action figure... That kid never had a chance. Even so, they should probably be on a watchlist of some kind.

[@jimthar17]

That's for the "ADULT COLLECTOR". You know, those people that buy EVERY Star Wars everything. But even THEY didn't buy Holdo.

[@All-Fur-Coat_No-Trousers]

@jimthar17 that's a good point. I'm actually relieved

[@joesmutz9287]

If Wakanda had a Jericho missile, Infinity War would have ended rather different It's funny how Tony Stark at the beginning of the MCU would have done better than the one at the end

[@TheMaleRei]

"Sire, we have energy shields, directed energy weapons, super bullshit space metal, antigrav tech. What should we outfit our rank and file troopers with?" "Furs, hand held 3x5' energy shields and spears." "Sire? Not even Mobile Infantry battlesuits with Y-racks and blasters?" "DID I STUTTER?!"

[@FidelCashflow_YT]

So I'm noticing there is no stack of TMNT figures waiting to be sold. Think I saw one Michelangelo in a set box. Not surprised, the legit figures sold very well when I was young.

[@allewis4008]

Very happy TMNT is still doing well 👍

[@sci-fi.tsunami]

The funniest/saddest thing about all of this is my Walmart still *WILL NOT* put those damn Snake Eyes movies figures on clearance. They are still full retail. And they have a ton of'em!

[@josepharrington8391]

walmart never puts anything good on clearance. they will literally let shit sit there for a decade. it is the final resting place for many of these toys lmao

[@REELWORKS12923]

I "collect" Lego (aka I have a serious addiction) But its telling that even when I buy Lego marvel sets, I usually ditch the marvel parts, stickers minifugures etc and just take the vehicle or building, and even then I still skip out on Lego marvel more than I don't

[@makutas-v261]

Don't keep feeding lego's overpriced crap please. As an OG.

[@MalabarTheGreat]

Lmao. The Last Jedi came out almost six years ago, and still there are unsold toys based on the film. Let that sink in. This was unthinkable twenty or even ten years ago!

[@KateDerWolf]

Man i swear, i'd ACTUALLY take a whole squad of those death troopers just for the sake of army building lol

[@peterkrochmalni673]

“I would buy all of these for a penny.” The irony is that at my store once an item rings up a penny we throw them away, we are not allowed to sell penny items. I cried when we threw away a full box of Milky Way Simply Caramel, they didn’t expire and they were still good to eat but once they hit a penny they all went into the garbage. Such a waste.

[@Scott.Sandifer]

While I appreciate what WCB is doing with these videos, and it’s always fun to laugh at Disney’s failing toy lines… I think their argument could be strengthened by examining what toys *ARE* selling in 2023. Because if *NO* toys are selling well right now, this is all kind of pointless, isn’t it?

[@tvctaswegia497]

As fun as it is to laugh at, yeah it's pretty biased I noticed he was careful to swoop past more popular brands.

[@mgthestrange9098]

This just makes me sad, all that wasted plastic! They need to stop merchandising the shit out of every film, they’d be as well selling this stuff to a recycling plant who can turn it into something useful.

[@muttley166]

There is something strangely soothing about these Disney toy dump videos... Satisfying, too!

[@chaos.corner]

Besides all the damage done by the crappy content Disney is putting out, a lot of those toys look very cheap quality like the knockoff crap you find in Dollar Tree. Take some pride, people (and I don't mean march down the street in your underwear).

[@tattooeddragon]

I guess you could say that Target is the “Lando” of the free.

[@Mattblaze1477]

If there was ever a real life Atomic Apocalypse the #1 item in the junk section of my homemade Pip-boy will probably be 'Shuri Copter (163)'

[@jaredtheamerican1776]

That’s crazy. I couldn’t imagine when I was a kid these toys not being sold out.

[@RoboticPope]

Are all the Rose Ticos now in land fill?

[@DarthPerkins]

No. They were so old, they turned to dust and blew away, like the end of an old Dracula picture.
