I like the line, it's just that trying to get figures at Target is a major pain in the ass. They just take soooooo long to stock and are super difficult to track down. It seems as if the don't do a lot of restocks, so you may only get one or two shots at it and then they're gone forever. This

I like the line itself, I just dislike exclusives with a passion. Too much inconsistency with their distribution for my likes. The first Elite NXT Series never hit some Targets where I live, yet other ones got them. Now they all seem to be getting them, but they’re a huge scalper item which makes it worse.

I feel like it's a way to rush out figures with terrible part choices that will never be fixed in future releases. Seth had terrible part choices. The Revival should have had Arn's body and thicker legs. They got cruiserweight bodies with stick legs. WTF? Jericho's figure has thicker legs than the Revival's. Then they give Bobby Roode terrible parts as well. yeah, Bobby had no neck His figure looked like mini Warlord.

I love that it gets figures out that we'd otherwise have to wait months longer for, but it cancels out because I'm in the UK and can't get them anyway.

I'm happy with store exclusives because without them, most of our requested figures would never be done. Yeah, it sucks if people in other countries miss out on them. But there are a number of folks here willing to work with people on getting them.

Don't have a Target within an hour's drive and I'm not as free as I once was to make runs.
So hell no, I don't like the NXT line.

I like the line and the elites so far inc the flashbacks. The distribution is absolutely awful. I have barely seen series 2 of the basics and elites except for Asuka. All the repacks like Sami and KO will clog the shelves and further kill distribution. Target has sucked royally with this line so far.

I agree with everything said, they should stop it and start integrating the NXT guys back into the normal and basic lines. I used to be excited to see NXT guys announced as basics and elites, but being from the UK I now hate it because I know they will be next to impossible to get a hold of eg, I'm looking at paying upwards of £60+ to get AOP basics don't even want to think about how much Undisputed Era/Sanity/Black/Velveteen would set me back. It's ridiculous Also from the uk and I had to spend £30 upward per basic it's ridiculous. Managed to get a few elites in Argos recently but other than that had to pay ridiculous amounts it's bullcrap

I don't have a Target nearby so I buy them online. Of course the prices are steep online sometimes.

My two local stores seem to have had around 10 No Way Jose's in.

Hopefully more NXT elite flashbacks like they did with rusev & Roman.

I'd be down with having 6 figures per series instead of 4. Being Target exclusive doesn't bother me so much since I've been able to get everything I want from Target. Wal-Mart exclusives though are a different story. True, I have 4 targets within 20-30 mins from me. Still looking for series 3 elites though.

He’s just lucky we drove an hour and a half to find one Ember Moon.

I had to get people in a fb group to mass-hunt for ember and have her shipped to me. even though both of my closest targets are 100% sold out of NXT elites and have been for some time. They just aren't coming in. So my biggest issue is that they are target exclusives. (had the same issue with Walgreens bcky. so annoying) I don't mind the NXT Flashbacks. Lets me fill out my NXT collection nicely. But I agree there should be more current guys on offer, and so few waves a year can be attributed to the exclusivity of the line. The best solution really would be to have these guys (and girls) in the main line as well. Nxt elite series 3 has barely hit anywhere yet and has just begun popping up last week. Walgreens Becky just starting showing as well. Be patient My targets are full of asukas that aren't moving because of the massive shipment they cant possibly sell all of. Wave 3 will never hit the stores near me. So nah.

Yeah, because all the Asukas are clogging the shelves at every target I go to.

I don't like Store Exclusives. It makes it harder to get what you want

Having only 4 characters but still packing 8 figures in a case is how we've wound up with a traffic jam of Asuka for instance. I can't believe how every store I go to now (there's 3 that are all really close) have nothing but full pegs of Asuka.
And to the people who don't have a Target nearby, I have 5 that I can get to within an hour and I still can't find the figures, so you're not really losing any advantage.
