yep! That's exactly what I found at the Walmarts I visited. The Tie fighters
were all *hidden* behind larger stacks of boxes on the top of the shelving
unit... same with the Watto's Junkyard and Shuttle except they were hidden in
the lower shelves. I think that the stock people who put the items out are
trying to be sly so they can buy sets as gifts or maybe themselves.
The moral of the story: always check the top shelves at Walmart... I have found
some amazing deals on old sets that way.
cheers!
