My brother got an email to preorder the HOF legends figs from wwe to pick up at K mart, and boy did that go wrong.
Ordered 2 funks (one for each of us) and never got a confirmation email........but wait, the crap ensues!
I work across from a K mart on LI so I went on my break at 1, waltz to the toy aisle and there they were.
text my brother saying I have 2 funks in hand did they confirm, he said they did so I put them down and left.
My brother goes to pick them up at 5 and lo and behold.........2 F'N ROAD WARRIOR HAWKS ARE THERE!
NO more funks at all and the damn store wouldnt do ANYTHING to appease us, all we wanted were the figs but they didnt even offer to locate them for us.
all in all after a half hour speaking (and by speaking I mean argue) to the store manager and the customer service line we got refunded and left.
so all in all K-mart bites, I have NO figures and no one even offered to do anything, and coming from someone that works 2 retail jobs this is blatantly unacceptable.

pre-ordering of mass retail toys is silly. I'd consider it a lesson learned not to pre-order retail figures, from retail stores.

I had the very opposite luck with kmart today. I found Legends 2 but they only had 4 of the 6 on the shelf. the remaining 2 were Snuka and Rude so I found it odd of the 6 those 2 would be missing. So 2 clerks were working in toys. I went over and asked if they could tell me if they had any more out back. they scanned one of the figs and said yes 4 more are in stock. Unfortunately the case they came out with was series 1 steamboat, Rhodes and LOD. but i was very pleased that they took the time to even check.
what may help in your case though is that according to there stock all legends are under 1 code. its not by name or series. that may have caused the mix up in your order

Ordering anything from KMart is a major mistake. I've posted about the 2 times I ordered from KMart in the past. Neither time did they send me what I ordered. And it wasn't even close. One order was for the Mattel DCIH Parallax & Renagade sets they sent me 2 of the old Gordon/SWAT Officer sets. The other time I ordered a TDK Movie Masters figure and they sent me some sort of table cloth that wasn't even batman related. But both times when I called for call tags to return them it got even more messed up. They sent me a call tag for a video game and I forget what the other was. So both time I called again to say they sent me call tags with the wrong items listed on them and wanted the correct ones so there'd be no trouble. They told me those would be find and they marked it on their computer records and to just use the tags they sent. Of course I did and got phone calls saying I didn't return the right items and until they got them I wasn't getting credited. So after a 3rd and 4rth phone call to them I finally got my card credited over a month later. I will never order anything from their online site again.
Personally though if I were you I would have bought the two you had on your break and then compared them to the ones you had ordered and kept the better painted two.

It actually perplexes how why a MEGA Toy producer like Mattel would choose such a sh*t-stain store like Kmart to have an exclusive event? TRU or Wal-Mart would be the ideal place for these things.
