I have never seen a Basic 64 Lana in the wild, and it is legitimately shocking to me. I would expect the vast majority to reject such an awful offering but (at least in my area) it has sold through. What are some other surprises you have faced?

Mattel keeps manufacturing Cena's and they keep selling. That surprises me a little.
I never saw Jim Neidhart in my area.
Biggest surprise? E43 Alberto Del Rio. His basics were of the ridiculously overstocked yet I never saw his Elite. I saw Samoa Joe and Kevin Owens but never ADR.

The Retro line, I'm glad it seems to be moving since it's probably the best sideline line idea they've done. I remember when Rumblers and Power Slammers came out, the first thing I thought was "Man, those look like Hasbros, they should make Hasbros", and now they have and they're sweet. I mean, it's kind of risky to put those out for the same price of a basic in this day and age.

To me, the warmers in my area tend to be the characters that over-saturate the area with too many releases of that specific individual. With that being said, I am surprised that the 10,000 different variations of Dean Ambrose always seem to move, despite some slowing, but not considered warming like others.

I would have to say basic 64 Lana and elite 43 Del Rio. I thought both would warm like crazy. I only saw Lana once and I just saw Del Rio for the first time at big lots. Elite 43 was everywhere around xmas but never Del Rio for some reason.

I didn't expect DM Nakamura to warm but I am surprised he can't be easily found at retail. Curious to know how many were produced and ordered compared to other DMs.

Not sure if you could count it yet but the GameStop Samoa Joe didn't warm in my area like Brock did. I got the last one around here and I got it like a day or two after it hit retail. This figure is definitely worth picking up too!

The ONLY figure I NEVER saw at retail is Rikishi. And I still don't have him ...

E44 Tugboat, saw him once at retail, never again, and I thought he'd be the warmer of the set (Even though I personally wanted him)

Just a few recent ones that I haven't seen hanging around.
Elite 46 - Sheamus Its a repaint with a different head and a title that's been released 25x.
Elite 47 - Big Boss Man - Looks like a member of the Shield and nothing jumps off the packaging.
Legends - Magnum T.A.

Definitely Nakamura. Based on the abundance of the other DM figures and that he wasn't well-known by casual viewers who only watched Raw and/or Smackdown yet, I expected that one to be a real misfire.
Basically, I was expecting how the NXT sets are doing at Target right now.

I'm sure they had to knock that Basic Lana down to like £3 in Smyths because it was warming that badly. Strange how it differs from place to place
