Ok so today I went out to my aunt's house this afternoon to see my grandma. Its on the other side of town and I figured I can hang out for an hour and come home on way back there is a target, walmart and a little out of the way still on way back a TRU.
So I hit all three and found nothing.
Walmart had E33 Cesaro, Batista and Daniel Bryan from E32 still. On an endcap they had about 6 or 7 JYD but that is it.
Target had no elites just basics. Not interested in basics. Was hoping to find some HOF but didnt find any. Asked person was busy and didnt seem to know what I was talking about.
TRU. Had a crapload of basics and John Cena from E34 and some E35 only ones I didnt see where Trips and Quake.
SO I just about given up finding an Eddie Guerrero elite. I am probably gonna overpay on Ebay just bid really high and hope noone gets it last minute.
I have a tupperware from my aunt told her I would bring it back next week. I am gonna try and hit all three again if nothing good I am gonna just give up hitting the stores and then go online only from now on.

That's nothing bro. HOF is still fresh on the toy market. Give it time, you will find him without having to pay $40+ for him.

Mattel WWE figures are hot and selling out fast so it's rare to find anything good on the shelf nowadays.

did you use the dpci code at your target so they could check for you or did you check the code online to see if your store even has them?

Man, and I thought when Dusty talked about hard times he had nailed it. But three stores in one afternoon makes it seem like he knew nothing about hard times.

TRU is a waste of time in my opinion.

Awwww you poor American's can't find all your wrestling figures.
Well over here in Canada, it's easy! We just hit our local Target store and..... oh that's right... WE DON'T HAVE ONE! And even if we did have Target still, somehow - because it's Canada - we wouldn't get the HOF figures anyhow! So we have to pay the over price eBay prices for those figures.
My local Walmart has 5 elite 33 Cesaro figures... it goes nicely with the rest of the Walmart's in Canada that have Elite 33 Cesaro figures. And a Battle Pack of Ryback and Jinder Mahal.... it goes nicely with the rest of the Walmart's in Canada that have the Battle Pack of Ryback and Jinder Mahal. And to top it off, we just got a fresh case of Basic 39 and with our basic prices sitting at $15.92 per figures, that entire line will sit on the shelves at Walmart until the next $10 sale, or until Christmas - depending on which one comes first.

Just get some BAF Bearers and I'm sure there would be a line waiting to trade you for HOF figs. |

HOF 2 just came out. I had to wait 2 months before I got HOF 1. When I got lucky on HOF 2 coming here early, they were sold out (except for Tito) within 2 or 3 days. Relax. You're an adult. Act like it and show some patience. That being said...
WHERE'S MY RSC BARRICADES AND ASR CAGES?!?! WTF?!?!

It's far worse in other places as many have pointed out. A few new items have finally shown the past week around here, however many stores have had no new stock for months now.

Distribution is getting pretty bad, and if retail doesn't succeed, then this line is gonna fail.
BUT the HOF figures series 2 haven't even shown up anywhere around me yet. You just gotta chill.

At least you found some E35. I haven't seen any of those around here yet.

Online is the way to go, I can't remember the last figure I bought in stores but it's been several years.

Most retail is a wasteland, right now....
I haven't seen any new Basics since B48, which was probably 3 months ago? Haven't seen any new Battle Packs in eve longer, my area's still stuck on the Cena/Warrior & Triple H/Bryan packs.... Elite 34 & Elite 35 came and went pretty quickly, while E33 still rots on the shelves.... they must have overproduced that set for some reason.
I've decided to stop looking for a while, I guess it'll get better eventually.... You should make use of the Target Tracker. You can also type in the DCPI number into the in-store scanners - the scanner will tell you if there are more figures in the back. Once I've shown employees the DCPI number, they've mostly been happy to go in the back & bring more out..... I think they get irritated if people don't know the DCPI.
