Recently I walked into Walmart and found a whole set of E68. To my surprise E67 hasn’t been spotted anywhere at retail yet. I wonder if another retailer might be pick them up as I haven’t heard/seen anything as of yet.

It's possible we will end up seeing E67 one day in Big Lots or TJ Maxx or maybe even Five Below. I see it this way, somewhere out there are warehouses full of Elite 67 and thry have to go somewhere, right? We'll see I guess. By the way, where did you spot E68?

I do think that in some way they knew this set wasn’t gonna hit at least Walmart or Target hence the no exclusive figure in the set. It had to be done for a reason and I guess this is the reason.

Half of Canada got both it seems. West coast and the middle of the country got both E68 and E67 in at the same time. The East coast (where I live) has yet to see E67, but I've spotted E68.
I'm actually kind of relieved for my Wallet's sake. I was hunting every other day for Velveteen Dream, Shayna Baszler, Rey Mysterio and Daniel Bryan. Once I found Bryan I pretty much gave up on E67.

Very hard to say but these probably find a discount chain a few months from now. Hard to believe as this is a great set. Tried two rounds from Amazon and second time the charm. Got nice clean hardy and velveteen figs. The others I'll wait for the discount store to get in or a sale or rsc.

Awesome. Havoc Rey was the first Elite I've wanted in ages and he's in a set that's getting skipped.

I've found them in my area at a few Walgreens and Kroger market places recently also was able to grab 2 and half sets of series 68 at Walmart for 7 bucks each only found 1 Patterson though and it was case fresh because I took it off the pallet but they are dated on the box as 6/1/19

Guess no one ordered it because they didn’t put any exclusives in it lmao

Maybe it fell out of the cargo plane over a third world nation?

Using the info in this thread, I believe I found the new Brickseek numbers.
WWE Elite Figure Collection Assortment Parent
MSRP: $17.97 SKU: 589043017 UPC: 887961741711
They do appear to be $15.88 despite the MSRP above. Apologies if this is actually not correct.
EDIT: Guess this is old news after all.

I’m surprised it hasn’t come out yet. We got e66 in April and it’s almost August.

Well I found the set in the box still on the pallet and asked the worker to open it. Also the shelves were filled with old crap like Elite Charlotte and WM35 elites. And yes the Patterson figure was on the assortment but I passed on it

Gahhhhh. I should’ve ordered from either Amazon or RSC forever ago. Going to rectify that mistake shortly. I may still grab a Dream down the road, but Havoc Rey (attire #4 in Revenge for N64) and Cedric are crucial. I’m not comfortable waiting for them to show up at random discount chains. That ish is dicey. Thanks for the news, even if it’s bad.

Highly disturbing that Mattel is producing Elites and they are not getting released, while shelves across the country sit empty for MONTHS......
Highly disturbing. Shaking my head.
