So after reading about all these Targets getting E12 shipments, I hit 3 of them today. All 3 had nothing but Best of 2011 on the shelves, and none of them would look in the back for me, and at the last one they had a Mattel case, didn't say what it was, and they refused to open it.
I hate my area, I go to every TRU, Wal Mart, and Target I can get to, no Legends 6, no Elite 12...nothing. The only thing worth while today was there were 2 Basic Ryders at a Wal Mart, and I went to the bathroom before going to the toy section, and when I got there my friend grabbed both and wouldn't let me buy one. He said he promised if he found it he'd buy one for his cousin, even though I drove us out there. So messed up.

Live in pa. The elite 6, basic 7, legends series 3, and dm hbk are representing the 99.9% that occupy every toy aisle of every major retailor! I fear a riots gonna break out anyday now.

I know exactly what you mean. It sucks seeing so many people on here finding new stuff but than I go and look and can't find a damn thing. No elite 11, elite 12, legends 6, 2 packs 11 or Survivor Series heritage at any of the stores here.  |

My area is always about 2 months behind. I'm just now finding basic 11 and elite 10.

I hear you. My Target took until this summer to stock something new (aside from Warrior/Rock DM2). All they had was 2010 product. It was so frustrating to go in there time and time again only to find various Finlays (which they still have) and Basic 8.

No elite 11, elite 12, legends 6, 2 packs 11 or Survivor Series heritage at any of the stores here. Exactly my sentiments. No Elite 11, No Elite 12, my K Mart hasn't even gotten the WWE display that everyone else seems to have gotten over a month ago. I really hate the way that these are distributed. I refuse to pay 25-30 dollars plus shipping. Its information superhighway robbery and I won't do it on principle. |

Heheh, that reminds me of the time I found B8 figures at a Boscovs, way before this series showed up in regular stores. I picked up the only Maryse they had and was proud of my find, so I showed it to MicroDiva. She then snatched it up and claimed it for her own Divas collection...Without even paying for it! Sounds pretty sucky, doesn't it?
Well, we help each other out a lot with our collections, so it's not as bad as it sounds. A couple of weeks later, she got me a replacement Maryse. Soon afterward, she decided she didn't need a MOC Maryse, due to Mattel cancelling the 1/1000 belts. So she used the Maryse I originally found to turn her into a custom one with her more recognizable black attire. I got this customized Maryse as a gift so, in the end, it all worked out nicely!
Oh yeah, to get back to the OP's point: Yes, Target kinda sucks right now! All of my local stores are exactly the same. Absolutely no Basics, several full sets of FlexForce Champions 2-Packs, and a few leftover Best of 2011 Elites. It's been pretty dead for a few weeks now!

I'm confused...You just described stealing. LOL, yeah...We have a funny understanding when it comes to collecting Divas, she always wants to be the first to get them! When Michelle McCool came out, we found her at a Walmart. MicroDiva spotted her on the pegs first and snatched her up right away. I had to wait until the next sighting to get one for myself! Don't worry, though, I let her keep Maryse as a gift. MicroDiva has been incredibly helpful on toy runs. She's also found some cool figures for me when I can't find them. Thanks to her, I got the last old series of Micro Aggression figures that I needed to complete the collection. (I never could find that darned blue Edge!) Recently, she got me the Nexus 2-packs, Extreme Rules US Sheamus, RR Randy Orton, and RR Great Khali. Not to mention the sick gift package last Christmas that included E7 DX, Rey Mysterio 6-pack, L3 Rock & Mr. Perfect, EG Rock, and DI3 Velvet Sky! So yeah, it was cool with me that she wanted Maryse first. I already picked up an extra Eve and Natalya for her collection, too...She wasn't able to find them this time! ;D |

You should have beat the crap out of your friend, taken his Ryder figure and left him there.

I went to 2 Targets, both had Best of fully stocked but both times I got a person to check the backroom. The second Target had a full case of E12.

I try to wait for some things in stores, especially when theyre reported to be popping up, but Long Islands always like the last ones. And speaking of how bad Target sucks, they even had a sign up by the figures:  |

I live here and can confirm that Long Island sucks when it comes to new findings.
