Looking at how certain places (country, state) are getting figures in while others don't get any.
How certain companies get figures or order figures that aren't still released yet.
Waves and series exclusive to specific companies.
Do you think the WWE figures are being too spread out?
Is it becoming hard to find those figures now a days?

My area is just now starting to get Elites besides Bryan, Barrett, and Sandow.

I'm glad that once I'm done stalking Walmart for the TNF series that I won't have to go there for anything for a while. Then I will stalk tru for mr McMahon for a while until I find it. Then after that hopefully I will be at every target in my area looking for hof4.
Meanwhile I'll still be ordering my elite waves and DM's from Amazon and ringside.
It's nice to switch it up
Yes my state sucks and I get jealous of some of you for getting things much earlier.

I wish the stores would order more, these stores have the room(Target/TRU/Walmart), they'll just sit on 3-5 Elites or Basics forever and reorder ONE case rarely and regularly in December. My stupid TRUs won't get any more Bayley or New Day sets after they sold out, I'd like to buy extras of those, but oh well, they've moved on... and there's all of Walmart and Target's year old GD exclusives...It's not like the PB set and HOF3 didn't sell through or anything...

It was just Chinese New Year... that's why there's like a 6-week break between releases.

It's nice to switch it up Yes my state sucks and I get jealous of some of you for getting things much earlier. See in the us - amazon is KEY. In Canada, non. X-Mas was amazing cuz less than 10$ fig was great but now back up to reg price, forget it. But yeah amazon (and even rsc) if you live in the us, is great. Canadians, anybody's WM gotta anything new? Mine has two empty shelves and LOTS of empty pegs (aside from dm stone cold and e39) but nothing new yet. I can only get out out once or twice a week but I'm glad I got everything I wanted from this year so IT IS nice to not have to go hunting for nothing for a while lol |

Yep, Amazon is key for me. I preorder occasionally for stuff on Ringside. I hit up Amazon for certain things that I'm not willing to pay a little extra for. Then there's a Walmart in my area that's fairly up to date on Elite/basics as is one of the local Toys R Us. That's pretty much I have to buy because other places are less friendly for stuff. Target is only worthwhile for their exclusives and same for all the other Walmarts in my area.

It is a pain to have to go to stores I don't normally shop at to see if they have the exclusive figures yes. With distribution being so terrible at retail it just doesn't help. So I am just buying online now and accepting whatever condition the box is in because it is just less of a hassle.

It seems like there's a new Elite series every few weeks lately... I think there were 8 last year? Plus all the DM, Network Spotlight, HOF figures and US and RSC exclusives too. Not that I'm complaining (...the more FBs and Legends, the better...) - but I have had to cut back and be more selective on all the current roster Elites/figures. |

Too spread out? These things are coming out so damned fast that I can't keep up. I've literally spent $1000 in the last 60 days on figures and there are still at least $300 worth of stuff I haven't bought yet that I want. I miss the days of the hasbros where we got like 3-4 sets per year and that was it.

I think it comes in waves. A couple of months go by and there isnt much going on and then we have the last few weeks where there is a ton coming out. I couldnt keep up if it was always like this. I like/need the break between sets every once in a while.
