With Wal-Mart getting the unannounced TNR 3-packs and the Hasbro-inspired retros, is there any word on the Mean Gene BAF set? If memory serves, it is also supposed to be a Wal-Mart exclusive.
And the amazon.com young Andre the Giant is also still unavailable. Anyone know anything beyond what I stated? Thanks!

I don't know anything about them...
But I do want to comment that I'm surprised Amazon doesn't get more exclusives. WWE sells extremely well on there and the Mankind did pretty damn well from what I understand.

Mene Gene set was fantastic looking. These BAF sets have been so inconsistent it's saddening. I was looking forward to this one almost as much as Bearer. We might never get those dope HHH and x Pac flashback Basics now  |

The baf mean gene I am concerned about.
It's supposed to be a Walmart exclusive but now Walmart has just gotten a bunch of newer and different exclusives which doesn't make a lot of sense if they're gonna have the baf series too.
I vote just to put mean gene in the TNF or HOF series as a stand alone figure and just kill off the baf idea

Since basics always shelf warm at Walgreens, I feel like they should take the BAF over and stop ordering regular basics.

BAF is a disaster. I don't understand how this went so wrong. They need to make it no longer exclusive to a certain store. No Walmart I have ever been to got the Paul Bearer wave.
Store exclusives just don't seem to work. There's gotta be a ton of Paul Bearer wave figures sitting in warehouses someplace along wth all of those Heenan Family packs that never saw the light of day because we are all still buried under Four Horseman sets.
Can't wait to never see HOF4. lol

No Walmart I have ever been to got the Paul Bearer wave. Cross the bridge to Newburgh, I saw it all many times there. Also, Wal-Mart's site was pretty good about having it available. As a matter of fact, you can still get Neville and the arms for $12.97 on their site. I've seen the entire wave on their site when it was new for retail prices. |

I would be highly surprised if the Mean Gene BAF ever comes out. My guess is that the basics get moved into the main line and Gene gets thrown into a HOF 2 pack with a repaint of L5/Allstars Macho Man (or Hogan if he ever comes back).

The BAF line is a mess. Walmart is horrible with exclusives. Just look at the mystery minis line. Never once saw the 3 exclusives and had to take to ebay. Never saw the Bearer line in full either just a few Undertakers. Luckily was able to get them off their website. I do hate the idea of buying a bunch of figures I dont want to get a few I do but I get its a money grab. Hopefully Mean Gene comes out bc I really want that figure

I could care less about BAFs. Half the time you can find all the figures and it's barely worth it. However the Gene set looked pretty fantastic. It's a shame they haven't released it yet.

I've wondered about the BAF Mean Gene set ever since we saw Basic 67 Cesaro and Basic 68 B Seth Rollins get released in the main line. I hope we eventually see Triple H, X-Pac, and Okerlund make their way back, but at this point I am over the Walmart exclusive BAF concept.
As for Andre, I've heard it could be released this month, although it wouldn't surprise me if it falls closer to early February.

The 12 Walmarts within 25 miles of Albany all got them countless times. They were on clearance before Christmas for $5 in Bethlehem and Albany |

I don't see the BAF Gene set hitting anytime soon, or anytime at all.
