I finally found new figures @ my local Wal-Mart. I got my hands on Elite 17 Sheamus & John Cena(the only 2 from that set that I really want). What's odd though is that I never saw Elite 16 @ any of the Wal-Marts in my area. There are 3 in my local area. Anybody else notice this as a problem? If I hadn't picked up E16 Punk in Illinois, I'd have had to pay $30+ to get him. As it is I'm having to order Zeke through RSC,

I haven't even seen E16 since I got back in state. So very glad I got Punk in Illinois. Also really glad that RSC's Hell of a Sale deal made Zeke near retail. Once you add in the DM5 Bret Hart & RSC Exclusive Kane, it actually brought him in @ under retail. Now I just gotta wait patiently for them to arrive. that's the hard part. Now if I can just find Diesel. I AM NOT paying $50 plus S&H for him.

Three walmarts in my area had nothing for elites for several months, then Friday each store got three cases of the elite 16 revision.
Not sure where you are looking, but diesel can be easily had for under $30 shipped on eBay, some even less than $25 shipped.

My Wal-Mart just got Elite 16 in, and they had 5+ of Punk and Rock figures each, 1 Kevin Nash figure, 3 Randy Orton figures, 1 Ezekiel Jackson figure, and no Slater or Diesel

Mine had elite 16 on Fri. Must have just sat out a fresh case at that too. They has 1x Kevin nash, 1x Punk, 1x Jackson, 2x The Rock, and 1 or 2x Randy Orton. They has Elite 14-16 there. I was going to scoop up that Punk but decided to wait til I get my hands on the Wrestlemania 28 one. So instead I bought Basic 21 Jack Swagger and Mason Ryan for my collection.

All I need is Slater and the only things I've seen have been the revision cases. This makes me so sad.

Looks like Slater and Diesel will be added to B15 Brodus as the only Mattels I didn't see in a store. I never saw any signs of the Diesel case and the last two days I've seen Nash cases at Walmart.

I Doubt it...someone could have put the case on Layaway. I saw someone with what looked to be 2 cases of Elites put them on layaway a week or two ago. Or it could just be with the holiday season here the WalMart warehouse/distribution centers aren't rotating their product and just shipping the newest prodcut to the stores as it comes in. So you'll see Elite 16 more later Mine had elite 16 on Fri. Must have just sat out a fresh case at that too. They has 1x Kevin nash, 1x Punk, 1x Jackson, 2x The Rock, and 1 or 2x Randy Orton. They has Elite 14-16 there. I was going to scoop up that Punk but decided to wait til I get my hands on the Wrestlemania 28 one. So instead I bought Basic 21 Jack Swagger and Mason Ryan for my collection. Orton is 1 per case in both Elite 16 case assortments. rock is three per case in the Nash case. (Rock replaces Slater and Nash replaces Deisel) |

Same here. We recently got Elite 15 in local Walmarts about a month ago, but now we're at Elite 17 (got Zack Ryder on Friday). My local Toys R Us is no better - the only elites are the Best of PPV set.

Thanks PJ, but I was not asking really. Just telling the guy who my store all had. I was surprised to see elite 16 honestly. I was hoping to find elite 17 really because I just need Kofi Kingston for the tag belt and I'm caught up clear to elite 20 i'm waiting on now.

The Walmart here usually skips waves. Seems like we get everything 3 waves in. Right now we are still on 15, and prior to that it was 12.

My Target got no basics between like series 8 and 13, and then nothing between that and 19. I wouldn't call this "unheard of," though it sucks for you (no offense).

1 of the 2 Walmarts got 1 case of E16 and built an endcap with the plush buddies for maybe a week before they were all gone. A lot of series around here get skipped. My mom just got back from out of town and said all she found was B23 Alicia (I e-mail her an updated list of what I want). She always comes back saying now to just buy it online because you can never find anything in stores anymore hah.

I looked & only saw 1 & they were asking $45+S&H. I searched elite diesel. There are at least 25 different auctions with just diesel, many with no bids if you watch them out.  |
