Rumblers seem to sell pretty well in my area. One problem is the exact same figures have been released in single packs, 2 packs, 3 packs (Walmart) and the big group pack at TRU. Most people are not going to buy the exact same figure more than once. Many of the Walmarts around here put out 1 case of series 2 and they quickly sold out. Since then, they have restocked series 1 and they are warming the shelves. Just like the early legends series and the legend 2 packs, this line (at least series 1) seems to have been overproduced. You can only put the same series of figures on the shelf so many times before they stop selling. This is mattel, the company that has produced no less than 1,000 superman figures and 750 batman figures before ever giving us Poison Ivy or Lois Lane in ANY form (JLU, DCUC, etc.) So I think we just need to get used to constant rereleases. They're good for kids starting out their collection allowing them to pick up big names with ease. Since these are aimed at kids, it makes total sense. I like these, but not enough to buy them. I don't really get annoyed with their presence in the toy aisle because they have a built in fanbase from the DC and Marvel lines that seem to be buying them up. Not like all of that extra crap JAKKS was making at the same time as RA and DA that nobody wanted and sat around forever.
