Tired of seeing so many Sids on Canadian shelves as well. At some locations I go to, there can be up to three times the amount of Sids in that picture.

Saw a couple of those today myself, even after the Mattel Purge.

My Kmart is filled with these and elite Rusev. It's a big reason why I stick to Target, Walmart, and Toys"R"Us.

Why don't Canadians like sid?! My stores don't have any sids left. They were around awhile but now seem to be all gone.

Those sids moved fast at my local Walmarts...... fast to the clearance section 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
But seriously, if I never see another Sid, that'd be great.

Should of been 1 a case instead of 2 and the accessories and deco aren't anything that wow's you. All of E39 stuck around in my area for ages with pretty much just Sting and Ziggler being sold.

I would like to know the logic behind making Sid 2 per case and whether the person who made that decision is still employed by Mattel?! This set (E39) and specifically this figure have killed the Elite line in Canada. Walmart and TRU have not stocked any new elite series since that one, except for the Lost legends (which is now warming shelves as well). This figure probably would have still warmed but if it was only 1 per case (like most flashbacks are) then there would not be as many on shelves and maybe we would have seen something new released?!
Mattel needs to launch a recall in Canada, like they have done in the USA and get rid of all these old figures from store shelves. These figures were selling well up until E39 hit, so clearly the demand is there. Unfortunately, the damage has been done as some collectors (perhaps a lot?) have left due to not being able to find any new stock on store shelves. Before anyone says 'just buy online', that is not really an option for us here in Canada as Amazon.ca carries pretty much the exact same sets that are available at WM & TRU and Amazon.com & RSC are crazy expensive due to the low Canadian dollar.

Pretty much every WalMart in Dayton Ohio. We're down to about 3 Sids at the WM I frequent. If it weren't for him and a few Mutants than we wouldn't have a WWE section lol.

Sid stank up the shelves in Ireland too. He's in for 7 euro now in their clearance section

when you guys south of the border complain about distribution, this is what a typical shelf looks like in Canada: U.K. Members be like Even over here in Smyths at the moment we have a HUGE E45 Regal problem. My local Smyths tends to move product really fast but there still must be about 20 of him shelfwarming, and it's the case in a lot of stores on the stock checker. The thing is, he's been on clearance at £5 for a while now and they're still not moving... I think Sid's got some genuine competition now over here!

I've not heard of the basic sid figure warming.
Maybe the headscan is the deal breaker for some people.
