I don't even want to hear it bro. I live in a town of about 5,000 people in North Dakota. I have to drive an hour to the nearest city that has wrestling figures. Well, I guess my town does have a Pamida if you are familiar with them (Probably not because you live in TN). The Pamida shelves are stocked full of wrestling figures, but unfortunetly its all flex force, basic tag series 5 and 6, and basic singles 7 Sheamus and Yoshi Tatsu. I have lived here for 8 months and no one has touched them.

Yep. My WalMart is full of Flex Force and Rumblers, i.e. nothing that matters.
Poor distribution is why I don't collect Mattel.

You think that's bad, you should try living in Canada. Tons of Elite 5 Mark Henry and Rey Mysterio here along with OTL Truth, Basic Regal and 2 packs Cody and Ted Dibiase.

In my country, they sell basics for 50 bucks (wich is really expensive in our money). Elites are like 80 bucks, even if is the crappiest one. Brazil sucks.

I have lived here for 8 months and no one has touched them. I drive an hour as well. But yeah the only thing I have not checked on about was people are finding the ESR at Big Lots and I have one of those in town as well and need to check out if they have one odds are....They Don't. |

man, if i lived an hour away from hunting i'd just not hunt and order everything online. even with the inflated prices online, you're saving money on gas and time wasted on an unfruitful trip.
within 20min i can hit: 2 TRUs (2 more TRU Expresses), 5 Targets, 6 Walmarts, 3 Kmarts, 2 Big Lots, 4 Family Dollars and a few other randumb places with figs (Rite Aids, TJ Maxx/Marshalls - and a new place, Toyzam i've yet to hit up). Usually i'll rotate and drive to one or two on my lunch break from work. In the last month or so, it's been great. I've found 8 or so figs at retail and gotten all of them. My wife's not too happy about it, but it does feel good. However, even with all these places to hunt, there have been months where i didn't find SQUAT. And usually, when i do find anything it's months after it's been on RSC or any number of other online retailers. Lately i've been buying online and saving myself a lot of stress and hassle. Though i do think it's fun to hunt, i have been getting my major wants (1 per case etc.) online.

Only reason I went to even look was because people are finding E12 there and I want Kane and Shango. Went to Walmart in hope of DM Hart and TRU in hopes of finding L6. |

Mine isn't really that bad for the normal collector but I only collect divas, Cody, and the occasional Randy so I never really need to buy from stores!

Mine also sucks. I moved to California from Buffalo a month and a half ago. Friends in Buffalo have found Elite 12 and 11 en mass. You know what my Target has? Elite 4!!!! I ask associates and they have nothing in the back. K Mart has Elite 1 MVP and Punk, Elite 5 Koz, Elite 6 Punk and Shad. Walmart is the only saving grace. They have Elite 10.Based on Mattel's track record of certain stores getting certain series, it is unlikely I will ever see Elite 11 or 12.

Around her its kind of decent but we have our shortcomings I only have 1 toys R us and 1 express but express is wayy over priced. We got a little of every thing but not so new stuff like basic 8-11 around 6 walmarts 1 new one had bret and cena DM's. Only 1 out of 6! 1 Case of Basic 12 at the 1 Target we have. And only Elite 10 at 1 walmart. every thing else is old, and I saw a couple Del rio and JoMo basic 12. We also got legends 5 about 3 months ago at Toys r us and some wal-marts. I need Basic 13, Legends 6 and elite 12

I'm from Canada too and to be honest I'm tired of seeing Legends 2 and to a lesser extent Legends 4 clog the shelves here. If I see another Terry Funk, Iron Sheik, Hillbilly Jim, or George "The Animal" Steele I think I'll go crazy. The only thing worse is seeing those Flex-Force pieces of junk. All they do is take up shelf space. |
