Star Wars Bargains, at Smyths

Popped into Smyths at Middlebrook Bolton today to find an even smaller Star Wars section, but within this some significant reductions.

Star Wars Black 6" figures were down to £5, Granted all they had at Bolton were Leia and Greedo, but Smyths have had up to wave 3 so there may be some other gems out there.

They also had the 16 piece Star Wars Command versus packs for a fiver and the Star Wars Rebels Stormtrooper Blaster for £10.

I have since heard via @UKToyCollector on Twitter that Deluxe Black Series, where stocks exist, are down to £20 and the Star Destroyer Command set down to £20

Clearance of a line isnt unusual, and its difficult to second guess what this means to Smyths. In my opinion Command only worked as a Pocket Money Toy - the 9 and 12 piece sets were perfect as Supermarket pickups at £5 and £10 respectively, the larger sets just havent worked.

For Black Series this may signal the end of Smyths stocking them until the Force Awakens merchandise hits. Smyths obviously ordered pretty big with wave 2 and the majority of stores have sat with multiple Leia and Greedo's for over 12-months. That surely shows as a slow/nil seller on any reports? I would hope the outlook is more positive and that with 2015 waves on their way Smyths are preparing for a mini reset ahead of the TFA launch in September
