You know, whenever I see a post here of people claiming to find a new series or anything even remotely recent at Wal*Mart, I really have to chuckle. Everyone here, raise your hand if the WWE section at your Wal*Mart looks like this: What's worse is that it's not just this one Wal*Mart, it's EVERY Wal*Mart in the area that looks like this. It's literally a barren wasteland of unwanted figures, and items that time has forgotten. Every few months, it looks like there might be a glimmer of hope when the shelf is empty, but even then, all that happens is that it stays empty for about a month, then gets restocked with more Heritage figures, and some Elites and 2 Packs from 4 Series ago. Now as far as I'm aware, ordering at Wal*Mart is done on the store level based on local demands, but you'd think there would be at least something Mattel could do to prevent this from happening. It just makes them and their product look bad when it's the same old crap sitting on the shelf month after month.

Please. I was at a Walmart that is about 25 mins away from my house. It had absolutely NO WWE figures. NONE, and I'm not kidding.
However, there is 1 Walmart near me that is more updated than any other store. That selection you just posted is better than both of my local Toys R Us' at the moment.

Mine looks the same but instead of the Elite 8 it is filled with Elite 4 Finlay.

I just got back from a Wal-Mart in my area that had 1 Elite Undertaker, no basics, 3 Legends 5 figures, and a whole lot of Rumblers... and they were all over the aisle. Not even on the pegs.
Another 1 just got in like 4 or 5 cases of WrestleMania Heritage. How long have those been out?
My closest Wal-Mart just has empty pegs except for Smash Scenes.
lol.

Mine is jam packed with the WrestleMania Heritage series, Elite Cena and HHH, and tons and tons of Rumblers. Several MVP/Henry packs. Thats about it.

I would love to see my Walmart look like that!! All I see at my Walmart is Basic Series 4 Matt Hardy and William Regal figures, and Flex Force. Yes, the joys of living in Canada!!

My Wal-Marts have looked like that (recent figures piling up) since Mattel took over. When they had the 1/1000 belts it was a little fun but now it is just annoying. There is now a run off isle for Transformers, Cars, Toy Story and WWE stuff that is either older or to in large boxes.

I went today and they had elite series 10,2 Big Shows,1 John Morrison and 1 Kane. I started to look around and I found Yoshi Tatsu well at least I thought I did I found the packaging. I am getting tired of people not only taking but also the people that are switching figures. I was not going to buy the Yoshi Tatsu but the point is that someone had to steal it is ridiculous.

haha yours looks good compared to mine. All my wal*mart has is Elite 7 Hornswoggle, Basic 8 kofi and chris masters (one of each). It's been like that for 4 - 5 months...

I'd kill to have Elite 7 (no, not 8) at my Wal Mart. I still need Hornswoggle, Michaels, Hunter and Cena.
