No idea but lucky them for that...

They shipped her in a plastic mailing bag, funny. The box wascrushed but since I open all my toys I just cared about Teela herself. I do feel for anyone who ordered and hoped for a mint figure.I did contact customer service and theyrefunded me the over pay ($18 I think was refunded). I figured it was a safe bet sinceI could just return her and get a full refund.
on a side note I thought Id share thesepicturesof my local wal-mart. I do worry that there might be a little imbalance of He-man/Skeletor compared to the secondary characters. While I was happy to see the shelves stocked, I couldnt help but have a feelingof dispair thinking this might turn into a 200x fiasco. Hopefully it wont and Mattel will increase production on the secondary peeps.Catcha later
Wow you are lucky to see that... I just saw that same image but with just the tags and no Figures at my local Walmarts...

toys are in demand in this pandemic...really surprised how willing everybody is to pay extra and raise the bar high (i.e. marvel legends)

If you had and if they refused you could always just return it and get a full refund
Walmart in Canada has been price gouging just like this for years, I'm not sure how it is a reasonable act from a big box seller, I'm not sure they do it as of recent, but however up until a few months ago often I would see them selling a previously sold out figure which was at retail for a limited, to go back in stock a later time at a inflated price for a very short window, it would however return to regular price some time later. I may be wrong but they seem to know what they are doing after a hot product sells out... and then they are only able to obtain a smaller amount for a second or third order they can increase price as almost the opposite of a sale. only site big box retailer I have seen this with, however here in Canada I have not seen it for quite a time so they may have ceased
I'm not quite sure why Walmart is overcharging for Teela and no other figure in the line on the website. I know there is a frenzy to get the Origins figures now but pay anything over the MSRP for these doesn't make sense. Just need some patience and by next year this line will be available everywhere besides Walmart.
Wow, this is really bad from them. Here Walmart hasn't really been doing that, or not that I've seen. However, others such Amazon are starting to do it with several Hasbro figures, mainly Marvel Legends and Power Rangers. They're listing them for about 30-35. Don't really understand why.

Walmart's new figure slogan;
Walmart has your figure needs. Ready your cash and start to "BLEED"!!! =^)
I can literally see a guy at Walmart saying; "Wallet Ban Aid" aisle 2
