Has there ever been a time when more companies have been making wrestling figures at the same time?

I saw this Warrior at Walmart over the weekend but there only maybe three at most. Nothing like this. But I fear my closest Walmart which still can't seem to shake these twenty or so Sid Elites will look like this next time I go there. Wait... Is that photo from Wallingford? Haha

I'd like to find ONE on a store shelf... Not sure where you are located, but if you are by the Suffern/Airmont NY WalMart they had at least 6 on the shelf this morning. Still no Marvel Legends Falcon though which was the reason I went to that store. Wow! What on earth were the purchasers thinking? This is utter stupidity on Walmarts part. It'd be interesting to see this end aisle in fortnight or so In the past I have seen Endcap like that for the DM Macho Man (KMarts), HBK (KMart and WalMart) and the first Warrior (WalMart) they all eventually sold out, but what makes it worse for WalMart is that not all their stores carry certain product. I have brought in UPC barcodes from Walmart exclusive figures I was looking for and asked the dept manager if they could order them and when they scanned the barcode and tried to place the order it would be rejected by the distribution center because it wasn't part of their stores PolyGram.

That is a lot of Warrior figures! Its kind of ironic that out of all Warrior figures to get another DM style its the Ultimate Maniacs, which is far from a defining moment in anyone's eyes! Other than SummerSlam '88, Wrestlemania VI, Wrestlemania VII, which have all been done in elite style, one way or another, what other "Defining" moments does he have left? His match with Hogan at Halloween Havoc '98? They probably didn't even have to make another DM Warrior figure. The WM 7 one speaks volumes for a DM line and for what really was a defining moment for Warrior. This figure could have easily been in an elite line, to go with the Macho Man figure. Like many people said who collect MOC, it sucks that the Maniacs Warrior figure is in a DM box, and the Maniacs Savage figure is in an elite box that can be tacked to the wall.

The thread title is very misleading, how is this the death of the DM line? one Walmart for some mind boggling reason ordered this many DM warriors.

It's so funny reading the "my Walmart looks like that too" posts. But no pictures? It's funny how it takes someone to post this pic for others to suddenly remember theirs look the same. If I walked into a store and saw over 100 of the same figure I'd snap a pic and post it for sure

No one else noticed the $94.97 sign behind them? Lol. Maybe they want someone to buy all of them haha.
Seriously though these are warming shelves everywhere in my area.

If I walked into a store and saw over 100 of the same figure I'd snap a pic and post it for sure I saw this crap like 2 weeks ago and didnt bother to take a pic. A hundred somethin ketchup and mustard warriors didnt seem picworthy. Walmart.com has the new DM Ultimate Warrior marked down to $19.99. Jus came from my closest Walmart and they had an entire endcap of DM Warrior. Over 100 of them. The sign said $14, but the scanner said $24. Theyll probably be $10-15 on Amazon like Taker
