On that note, I was going to mention that last year, Walmart was rather aggressive in clearing out those sales specials. The DC Superheroes pack started at $20 and plummeted to $5 within a week and a half.
Mine almost always does starting around this time of year
Just tell me where I can find a place in my area that actually has an accessible drop box these days, and I'll be doing exactly that.
I did that last year (fire department), but I'd MUCH rather just drop it in a box without having to bother another human being. That's all-but impossible these days.

I know the site well. It's pretty awful to navigate for local regions.We still have drop boxes around here (confirmed last night), but I'm sure that varies a lot from region to region.
This link might be helpful for finding drop-off locations:

I doubt it. Beast Wars Again ended its broadcast back in September since it was only building up to the theatrical release of ROTB, and has since been replaced by the Japanese dub of EarthSpark. The toyline seems to be ending with the Ghost Starscream & Haunted Waspeeter 2-pack, as no episodes of Beast Wars Metals were included in the broadcast (and, well, the Transmetals aren't all that popular in Japan).
Related to that, I actually recently found out the reason why Season 2 and 3 were both half the length of Season 1. It's because Season 1 cost Mainframe 18 million dollars to produce, and while Hasbro wanted a second season, they didn't want to pay that same amount a second time. So the budget was cut in half, which cut the episode count in half.
