Anyone notice this yet?
I cant believe how well this set is selling in stores. I went to TRU last week and actually found 0 Matt & MVP sets but two Rhodes' and Miz/Layla sets. I thought Matt & MVP would shelfwarm, Guess I was wrong.

The only one from that set that is flying around here is Cody/Dusty. I've found the other ones pretty easily. I'm sure once the weekend comes the only ones left will be the Layla/Miz set.

Last Thursday night, AD29 was in stock with 2 of each set on the pegs. Come Friday afternoon both Rhodes' were gone.
I'm shocked people actually bought the Hardy/MVP set. I really wanted to see that MVP made as a novelty fig, but they f'ed up his skintone and made him wear shorts shorts.
Completely disappointed with the final product, but I'm still pleasantly surprised they added MVP's tats and made a new basketball accessory.

the only set in that series i've seen around here has been Miz/Layla.
i like the MVP/Hardy set. i think it'd be awesome for display. i just hate how dark MVP skin tone is. it's too dark.

Obviously people think MVP looks better as a black guy  Or maybe people want the basketball. WWE goes NBA. |

Not a surprise to me. It's more surprising that (where you are at least) the other two sets haven't sold as well. I didn't think it'd be a bestseller, but I expected that set to sell well as something a bit different. I'm certainly looking forward to buying it.

'Black guy' (& white guy...or whatever) are more diverse terms than Jakks seem to understand at times. Indeed, MVP & Layla hail from Africa... Does that automatically suggest MVP is black as the ace of spades? No, no it doesn't. Because he isn't!! How do I know? Because I've seen him before....many times...we see him every week, just as Jakks would if they are actually fans. Layla is clearly a few shades darker than she should be as well. Often she is lighter than some of the tanned white Divas like Mickie!  |

I've found them all. But they had more Miz/Layla's than the others.

At the TRU here, there were 3 MVP/Hardy sets, and one Miz/Layla set. No Rhodes sets, and the pegs were filled on Monday. The set moved pretty well so far.

Odd. So far I've found AD29 in stores only once and that one time they had two of Layla/Miz, two Hardy/MVP and only one Rhodes set so I guess I can't really guage it yet.

Shelfwarmer here. Rhodes is the hot one.

See now guys I said suprisingly, Because I thought since the set was half assed on MVP's part that it would shelfwarm.
You guys are right when you say the Rhodes' sets sell like crazy. I know for a fact, I'm just glad I found mine last Thursday.

That's odd, in my area Matt/MVP are selling the worse.
