This is total BS! I hope they show up at some point but I am not surprised that they are not carrying them. From what I have noticed, WM here tends to favour basics over elites, especially in light of the whole E39 debacle where they apparently ordered thousands of cases of this set and they are now rotting on the shelves everywhere. I saw the TNF basics at one point but I don't think they carried the battle packs as I never saw them in any stores in my area. If they don't think they will sell very well then why don't they order less- does Mattel have a minimum order for retailers?! This sucks bad, TRU has carried all the TRU exclusives from the USA (at least in the couple years since I have started collecting), why can't dumb a$$ WM follow suit?! The store in my area has allocated 3 pegs to those dumb zombie figures yet not one mention of the Walmart exclusive TNF line.  |

It figures that the one new thing we will finally get is zombie figures...Sad existence here in Canada.

Trolled the area today and found em in the 518 area of Upstate NY. All the Walmart's toy sections are reset. Haven't seen any of the TNF series anywhere.
I really wish Walmart didn't get exclusives..their customer service is terrible. Wish target would get more exclusives because I just check myself if they have any in back.

NOW they MIGHT be put into the reg elite spot - who knows - that's IF they're the same price and IF the store DOESN'T still have 42 e39 or lower elites come december lol TRU only carried HOF series 3 and that's NO 4-Pack and NO Dusty Ring. I don't see great things in future canadians... jesus my tru has tons of BBM, HBK, Trips, Seth, Cena, DM Austin, DM Sting and HOF 3 and e39...not much hope left.  |

That thought actually crossed my mind, they don't allocate a lot of room for elites I noticed so perhaps the TNF elites will be placed in the regular elite slot?! I think the price might be slightly higher but they can easily add another price tag on the shelf. They have lowered the price of basics in recent months, I wish they would do the same with the elites as they are a tad on the high side IMO. This would also help get rid of the shelf warming as I noticed for some unknown reason WM & TRU here in Canada do not like to put stuff on clearance, unlike the USA where they have sales ever now and then to get rid of excess stock. The TRU in my area has over 20 Sting DM (the first one) that have been sitting there since last Christmas- PUT THEM ON CLEARANCE!!
True, but they also carried the Network spotlight figures which are exclusives as well as the Cena & Rollins exclusives. I knew they wouldn't carry the HOF 4-pack as those probably would not sell very well, they are warming shelves in the USA so imagine what would happen here if they carried them.

They might but it only shows 1 upc, which is probably for the main Elite line. See how they have WM BASIC and BASIC separate. I seriously hope we get them tho. Just found the Walgreens Cena at WM, so I'm hoping we see Walgreens HBK! And as for clearance... I seriously don't understand why they put create a wrestler on clearance but not E39. Makes no sense. They don't even have nearly as much stock for CAW as E39. Walmart logic.... |
