I cant imagine Hasbro would want them back either, because they wouldn't be in a good enough condition to re-issue to other stores, and they have 'BigW' all over them (not stickers either - actually part of the printed exterior image), so no other chain would want to use them.

I think that store might have just said that, to avoid any begging from an interested person if they said it was to be destroyed.
I worked for target in the toy department about 4 - 5 years ago now and this is true and display items would just be crushed in the cardboard compactor out the back. They never asked for any displays back, We had a cool Playmobile display diorama in a plastic display case that when it was over we put in the bin out the back.
But a lot of the time the posters and displays would just go to the staff there, a mate of mine has all the display items from the first movie, posters cut out etc.
