Wal*Mart Spy Report: Super Articulated Exclusives

We have received a report from our spy "Long Snoot" from inside the Wal*Mart on Tatooine. According to Long Snoot the following 10 figures are listed in the Wal*Mart computer for a retail price of $12.93: E7 Kylo E7 Firs E6 Vader E4 Chewie E4 Han E4 Luke E4 Prin E7 Poe E7 Finn E7 Rey Now the these figures are currently on order in denominations of 12 and no stores in the region have them on hand.
