It's kind of sad when people think that the head designer is in fact, singlehandedly running Mattels WWE line. He designs the figures. He doesn't make them, he doesn't paint them, he doesn't pack them, he doesn't order them on behalf of the stores, he doesn't distribute them, he doesn't unload the trucks at the stores, he doesn't replenish the shelves. He DESIGNS them.

Bill has no say where exclusives go and mattel might not even have a say in this.
It can be a decision by walmart to make it exclusively to us walmart stores. Maybe theyre not confident in their wwe sales in your country.
Also, you chose to collect mattel figures..which technically is a foreign product to you. Expect to miss out on figures.

Would be nice to give Canada all the Titos, and shelfwarming Horseman and TNF Elite series 1 And we'll gladly take them. Americans don't know how good they have it when it comes to figure collecting. Every time I read someone from the US on here complaining about how expensive figures are or how long a figure has been shelf warming I just lol. 19.99 is not a lot for an Elite figure. Neither is 49.99 for four elites in a 4-pack. Do the math...4 elite figures for 50 dollars...that's actually a really good deal even at full price. That's 12.50 per elite. And then to still not want to buy a 4-pack thats on sale for 24.99? Jesus lol.

He has no control over distribution. And that is on the retailers not Mattel if stores don't get the exclusives. I have a Super Walmart that never would get the DCUC including the Walmart exclusives. I had to travel down to NJ stores or 45 minutes further north to find a Walmart that carried them. I even brought in a Barcode so the dept manager could scan it to order and everytime she tried the order would be refused because it wasn't paertcof their stores poligram layout. I would ask her why not all stores carried the lines and or exclusives and she said anything the store is allowed to order from the distribution centers was set up by their corporate office. So basically all that means is if Walmart or Target doesn't want to sell it in Canada then you aren't going to see it there.

I live in Washington too. Haven't seen like anything over Elite 39 besides an Elite 41 Ambrose. Then again I don't look at retail much.

With i believe an elite was around 26-28 at the Walmart i was at in quebec, that was about $20 american.. so the same. So no matter what, youre going to spend the same

And then to still not want to buy a 4-pack thats on sale for 24.99? Jesus lol. Exactly. I said that before. If TRU canada had hof 3 - then ship us all of the unwanted horsemen and leftovers from US targets lol ALL that stuff would have been sonld at at x-mas here. Clutter solved. But that wasn't my point... I addressed BILL in this, didn't ask for ANYONE else's opinion. I already said, (AGAIN) obviously he can't fix it (or to spell it out for some of you - DO ANYTHING AT ALL) but if ANYONE can pass it along that were getting NO exclusives it COULD be him. Is in nice to see all you being a-holes right in the new year. Just ALL OF YOU jumpin to say the exact same thing as the guy before. Bill only does this blah blah blah. SO MANY of Bill's close personal friends on this board willing to SPEAK FOR HIM. That's so cool. So much holiday venom and spite. I (ALSO) already said I ASKED WALMART, TWICE AND GOT NOTHING. So after I write that and 10 responses later saying 'talk to walmart' - like why even ing bother writing the same crap as ten other people? Over and over again. Bill WORKS for mattel none of you do. He reads here. So the only one who's opinion I care about (in THIS situation) is his and the whole point of it was just to say to him "hey we're not getting EXCLUSIVES" over here. Walmart or f'n TRU (although TRU has been good with NetSPot). If anyone here can maybe answer why and 'pass it along' to MATTEL would be him. Maybe they just didn't order them. Fine. We seem to be getting more consistent basics just not elites. We got TNF basics but not elites. Bill sees all of us on here wanting the same figs the us does. Just thought he MIGHT have an answer. Canadians forget that specific spot - if you want more fids, DEMAND IT. We want figure equality! LOL It would be nice though. I'm not angry huffing writing back lol, I'm just sayin is all... Happy new year everyone, ya bunch of jackals!

NO not someone like Bill. That's just 'sad'... No need to be a condescending jag-off. How bout spout 'speaktomeaholes'?

Because Canada's pride and joy are Elite 39 figures. We don't want new stuff when we can continue to model that line on the the pegs everywhere. Sad but true We did get zombies...yuck. And we have gotten 'som' new basics. I found the jbl set at walmart and tru - after x-mas of course.

I went to my Walmart today ... (Located in Canada) must still be 40 elite 39 figures We aren't getting anything new till maybe 2024... They have been on a clearance rack for 24.99 for a year. Not even a cent cheaper than the other elites I believe Actually they're 19.99 right now!! LOL yeah not many sold for x-mas round here either. The lost legends are on wm.ca for 19.99 if you needed any of them...but in stores? We're doomed! Doomed!!!! Those tnf elites look so nice - they look like something I could see collecting moc. VERY nice. Us...e39 for ANOTHER straight year. That's why some exclusives wold be nice. At least we'd get new since we cant have the reg elites...
