Found Andre at a local WM this past weekend, and scooped him up quickly. The paint for his stubble is kinda janky, but I figured a beggar can't be a chooser at this point.

In an update to Walmart.com's clearances concerning WWE Superstars and MOTU WWE.
MOTU WWE: It seems they finally sold out of Goldberg, Kane, and Macho Man. Steamboat is $4.09, with Piper and Ultimate Warrior less than $4. Stephanie M-H is now at $2.70!!! I finally caved in on this one today.
These things have been on-and-off clearance for a few months now. Recently, they have started hitting price lows. And every time I would go look, the screen would say something like "in 100 peoples cart", "50 people bought this item today". Which makes me wonder: How many of these WWE MOTU figures have they had just sitting in a warehouse somewhere? For reals? Did they have 1000s of these somewhere that they now have to super duper clearance to get rid of?
WWE Superstars: Nash and HBK around $7. Hall around $8.

Again, Hogan at x2 for this wave was a horrible decision. On the plus side, this Walmart got 4 cases and maybe one chase Hogan. These and 1 Piper were all that they had. This is a good volume Walmart, I need these to sell to make room for the next set.

I wish they would date lock figures like this more often the way target is doing now with legends series 22. Thats what i asked steve in the q&a thread. An endcap or sidepanel shipper display would be a great way to highlight these "exclusive" figures and get them more notoriety. Anyone drive around today to see if their toy aisle resets are taking place?

Im waiting on dibiase, honkey tonk,macho man and the rock to show up. Its inevitable as most stores still have them warming the pegs. Yeah like you i am flabbergasted at the sheer amount of these on walmarts website yet stores have none. They could have sold them out at full price probavly if they shipped these out across the country. So dumb. Instead they only get a few bucks profit now. Those motu figures may end up at ollies as well. Just another example of walmart sitting on backstock instead of putting them out on pegs. Everyday seems to be backwards day for walmart. Why dont they just open up their online warehouse doors and let us buy our figures from there. Probably cases of mr.t just sitting around in there. Soab

3 Walmarts, 3 different sets. They all had a least one spot for the MNW Elites and Ultimates. They also had a spot for the Maivia set, Knuckle Crunchers, Superstars and the usual Elites and Main Event lines. Just saw the new reset pics from cablev (thanks man). Unfortunately looks like we are permanently down to one peg for our superstars. I still have not seen any signs of markdowns for the rock and pegwarmer friends. Not sure what walmart is waiting for but if they dont clearance those older figures than i really dont know where the rest of the red pants hogans are gonna hang. Based on that i doubt walmarts will even order any more figures until the older stuff sells out. But for some reason wm still doesnt understand that we will not pay anything more than 5 bucks for the rock and macho man knowing full well that they will probably end up at ollies. They have to clearance those and the large number of red pants hogans first. I am afraid this upcoming week will be a bust. Looking more closely at each photo shows that the lone peg will be situated next to the crunchers near the bottom The superstars have the least amount of visibility/space on the entire aisle looks like. Just put em on creations at this point. Wm has given up on these. The only hope we have now is that steve changes his mind and helps get the superstars on a sidecap shipper like the legends at target.

This has to be a new mixed case. How does your walmart even have space for all those figures? No picture? Anyone else find the older figures? Check your pm

So i checked out a couple walmarts just now before they closed and didnt see any shippers or mnw figures. Here is hoping they still show up this week. I am starting to find new gijoe, tmntmotu, superheroes, mcfarlane batgirl, new motu, new cartoon motu and did find the new ultimate piper tonight. So if anything new toys are coming down the pipes. I talked to 2 toy stockers tonight and when they went through their hand held, the same story as always. No info on future deliveries, none sold and the same response "these will probably be discontinued". Also learned tonight that (at least the 2 walmarts i visited) they only do inventory once a year in.....JULY. this explains why we always see everything go to clearance at that time. Really? Only once a year? Man... so much fail from a billion dollar company. So those rocks are gonna be stickin around for at least 2 more months.
