Why we can see these figs on card on the web, and they said sold out on target sites, and no one can find them ? It this the same path of the larry zbysko figure, they will be send in australia ? Generally when we see the carded version, it suppose to be release very soon. If they scrapped the set, they will have to take all the figs on their card, and trying to sell them in another series ? Its a stupid situation. I'm sure they figs can sell better than any repaints basics they are releasing now.

First off I know you don’t speak English, but I normally can figure out what you are trying to say. But this time I haven’t a clue. But the one part I do think I understood was the part about Bill. And if I am not mistaken Bill said he didn’t know the status of NXT Series 3 Basics. So going by that they (series 3)could be sitting in Targets distribution centers waiting for the previous 2 sets to clear from the shelves before they are shipped. And even if they were canceled by Target prior to Series 3 shipping they would still ship to whoever Mattel sells them to on the NXT cards. They aren’t going to recard the figures. (If that was what you were asking)

I think Bill said they were coming out one way or another, whether that means they're getting 2 releases each, idk? I think it's weird that the NXT line would be in jeopardy like that, but the toy business has been weird since Toysrus croaked.

The figures were designed, but it's possible Target never placed an order for the series. Series 1 is still available at all the stores in my area, and only one store ever even got series 2. The basics don't seem to have sold well, probably due at least in part because there's no shortage of basics of Sami and KO available in the basic line for 3 bucks cheaper.

The figures may not be coming out in the NXT line but they will be coming out in a different lineup. At least that is how I interpreted it.

THe weird part is, I’m pretty sure series 1 & 2 sold well, I mean I know in all my local stores, they were selling very well. Sami and KO hung around, but were gone by the time Series 2 hit.....it was the repack case with Gargano Chiampa, and filling out the cases with Tye, KO, and Sami that hurt the line, those were the slow movers in the first place! I don’t know why they didn’t just add DIY to th series 2 cases that seemed to be selling very well.

So if he said they will be added to another series, all the one already packaged, will have to be put on new cardboard, a stupid bussiness move. Maybe they signed an exclusive with target for the nxt line, and now that target dont want line 3, they cant give the figs to walmart ?

They’ve got their own exclusive Basics that don’t sell. They don’t need a second line clogging more space

The figures (or the line) were cancelled during the proto stage. They wouldn't have to throw away thousands of unused NXT basic boxes because they don't exist. If a MOC proto is released then that box in the photo is most likely the only one that exists at that point in time.

I hope that Billie Kay comes out in some line. I don't care which line, just give us the darn figure Mattel.

Either one is a big want I might buy Kay but I just hope its the basics that are in jeopardy and we keep getting the Elites.
