I drew inspiration from the worst shelf-warmers poll, so I thought id ask....what are some of the hard to find figs in your area?
Figures that others have had no problem with but you can't find. Curious what everyone else is struggling to find

Hmm, how about... EVERYTHING ON THE LIST. (Except for Cash in Rollins, it's warming at my local TRU) Here in Canada we haven't got a new elite set since E39. I've had to buy everything after E39 online, and I've had to pay like $35-$40 per figure.

The TRU Cash In Rollins from two years ago? that's the one! My closest tru only got a case (7 I believe), missed it while at work, and hasn't shown up since. Actually can't even find in my area anymore |

I've seen everything at retail except for the Spotlight Balor I think. Well, and the Kmart stuff, but that's because I haven't been inside a Kmart in like 2 years. I got AJ from Amazon, but I saw him on the shelves at an FYE.
I got them for retail price online, but I still haven't seen that newer TNF wave with Macho and the Natural Disasters. I've seen plenty of those Shield and BatB box sets, but just not the single releases. The Walmart's around me just didn't seem to get them in stock. Knowing Walmart though, I'll see them randomly 6 months from now and they won't go away. I hate that store.
With Amazon, I feel like I get the waves at least a month or two before they hit shelves, but I end up seeing damn near everything at retail eventually. Those Spotlight figures are warming hard around me. So that seems to be the delay on Balor because I still have tons of Austin, Vince, Taker, with a few Bayley sprinkled around. I have E41 and E46 Balor. Not sure I even need the TRU one just for the chainsaw. I wasn't a fan of the blue in his attire. Plus, we're getting the SummerSlam version shortly and I definitely want that one.

Actually can't even find in my area anymore It shouldn't show up again, it was seasonal for 2015 (correct me if I'm wrong), there might be some lingering like QWERTY has mentioned, but nothing that has the potential to be restocked. |

Definitely hasn't warmed like it has some other areas. |

Hall of fame 4 😑 I stopped by my target everyday day class hoping to find them, two huge holes in my collection (booker t and edge) I finnaly gave up. Then one day for the hell of it I went on brick seek I saw there inventory finnaly went up. I go there to find a mixture of series 1,2,3 that weren't there the following weeks. Like wtf I still don't have them  |

The whole AJ Style Elite wave, but it hasn't shown up around here yet. As far as figures that have hit the area. I kept missing the new Cactus Jack. I have seen plenty of Ziggler, Ambrose and Boogyman figures, but not a single Cactus. Got mine from Amazon. Everything else on the OP list I had no trouble finding on the pegs when they were out.

When I'm looking, I usually find what I want without too much trouble.
I don't really go shopping very often though.

I've never seen the elite white (future Jesus) Seth Rollins. It was on Amazon for a while, but I've never had any trouble finding things in stores so I decided to wait. That was a mistake.
I've seen everything in the poll at least once.

Ive seen all of those at least 4x each, except e46 Balor. I have one from Amazon, but all I ever see is the scraps of the set at Target.
Ive never seen Brauns elite at retail either. Tons of the rest of e44 though, even Sasha.

All my stores are several series behind. All Targets had that Strowman series or nothing at all. Then the Targets that had stuff got the lost legends, then more of the Strowman series.
My neaerst Target still hasn't gotten HOF 4 in. No battlepacks at all, despite others in the area hetting newer ones. Both TRUs are still at whatever that last Ryback series is. Nearest Walmarts are all at E39 still. Some have newer battlepacks.
All 3 Walgreens only have that Nasy Boys series and HBK.
All stores seem okay at getting in basics and battlepacks (save for my Target which only had the SummerSlam series as the most recent BPs). I've actually seen Evil Emma multiple times.
