The only other place I've found Eradicator for a "reasonable" price is cmdstore; they are a Canadian retailer so you are going to pay more in shipping if you are in the states (so it makes sense to group items), but they seem to have him in stock.https://cmdstore.com/products/dc-multiverse-comics-shock-wave-exclusive-eradicator-gold-label-787926170030?_pos=1&_sid=5a5891987&_ss=r
Just not into the figure- weird to see him as a vampire lol
I truly don't understand why Walmart allows scalpers to resell their own exclusives on their site while pretty much never putting the product up for sale themselves. It's most galling when they list hard to find figures in the "similar items you might like" section for a (relatively) reasonable price, if not occasionally retail or below, but when you click on it for the actual page it's a wildly inflated price. It a disgusting bait-and-switch and gives them a real black eye in my view, and I doubt I'm alone.
I was able to find Vampire Bats in the wild, but have seen no sign of Eradicator yet and he's the one of the two that I really want.
The DC Multiverse Walmart Exclusive 7" Batman: DC Vs Vampires and Eradicator: Shock Wave Gold Label figures from McFarlane Toys have both finally been listed on the Walmart website. The two figures have been hitting physical stores for weeks.NOTE the two figures are NOT currently available for purchase, at least not from Walmart themselves. Don't buy them from secondary market sellers who also sell on Walmart's website.
I don't believe they have been made available online by Walmart themselves yet, but these might become available during the next Walmart Collector-Con event, if not sooner. The next Walmart Collector Con will be taking place March 16th-17th starting at 10am ET. See the direct links below for the two figures:-DC Multiverse Eradicator: Shock Wave-DC Multiverse Batman: DC Vs Vampires
I agree, particularly for the Walmart exclusives. Target I've had better luck with. These are just getting insanely hard to find. Doing it the way pulse does would give some of us with only one craptastic Walmart another option

Eradicator is a must get for me, and although I'd like the Vampire Batman I'm definitely not going to the effort it will likely take to track it down, because Walmart... I also don't like that they call it a DC vs Vampires Batman because this look never appeared in that comic (Batman was never a vampire in that recent comic run, and he barely appeared in it at all), but he has been a vampire in other Elseworlds stories so I wish they would have labeled it as such (minor quibble).
I wish McFarlane would do with their store exclusives what Hasbro does with Target exclusives and put them on their website concurrently. No other retailer still gets them (at least until much later) but then everyone who wants it can still get it. As a collector it is very defeating to want to buy something and just never be able to find it or order it online either one.
I hate them too. I've only ever found two Gold Label figures at retail. I'm sooooooooooooooo glad Pulse sells the Hasbro exclusives now

100% this
All this does is send scalpers to the store to pull them all from the shelf and list on auction sites.
I just have to hope that 1 seller has them reasonable enough. I had to pay $38 each for Azrael and Parallax and I'm not very pleased about it.

Shown below are the official images for the new DC Multiverse Walmart Exclusive 7" Batman: DC Vs Vampires and Eradicator: Shock Wave Gold Label figures from McFarlane Toys. These have started to hit physical Walmart stores already (Mostly out west), but no word if or when they will be offered on the Walmart website.
