Clearly the ball is in Walmarts court on this one and apparently, they don't seem to be interested. Sucks too because I'm DYING for a Mean Gene.

Oh wow, I didn't know Target's failed in Canada. That's crazy. To be honest, I'm kinda glad that KMart is closing. It used to be awesome when I was young, now it's just..........depressing. That's the thing. It sounds from the way you guys talk about Kamrt - DEPRESSING AS hell. This chain needs to be put out of it's misery or just merged with target. Yeah target lasted two years. Their prices weren't good enough to make you not go to walmart. The shelves weren't stocked with much stuff - there was a real emptiness to the place. As far as the figs go or toy section - by me, when they closed they still had the same toys they opened with. I can't even picture seeing that as a child. You had to GET that toy now or it wouldn't be there when you went back. Now everything sits...rotting. So weird. Only time they got more wwe was when those action ones came out...punk was in...I forget the name. Anyways the REAL bummer was they closed after x-mas after 2 years right so in november they get the series with cody, henry, sin cara etc...and Hogan DM. Everything was slashed so I got them all at a great deal. I should have just bought all the hogans but I didn't know how to customize back then... So yeah that's my story about target. the starbucks inside prob took in more cash in a day LOL BINGO! Honestly the way you speak about Target is kind of how they are starting to be here too. There's about 4 Targets in the area that I frequent when I'm hunting for figs. For most of 2016 they had the same stuff on the shelves. Now though, every one of them......BARE. The Brickseek app shows they have the new HOF 2 packs in stock. You go there and BOOM......not a thing. It's tiresome to say the least.

Just saw on the news last night that the Kmart 5 minutes from my house is going to be closed by the end of 2017. So weird as this place has been open as long as I can remember. I shopped there when I was just a kid too. I'm 36 years old and I don't remember anything else being in that space. However I'm shocked it didn't close years ago. Ours closed over a decade ago at least...a target went in it's place - well those ALL failed in Canada...now it's nuthin. But I will always look at it as Kmart. I can picture/remember going in as a kid...I'm 39. Like Buckwheat said "Been a nong time tince dem days..." Oh wow, I didn't know Target's failed in Canada. That's crazy. To be honest, I'm kinda glad that KMart is closing. It used to be awesome when I was young, now it's just..........depressing.

Maybe years from now, but I wouldn't expect it any sooner than that.

I also like how the Kmarts that have the exclusives with the fan signs, they have all of them......except Balor. I've never even seem them in person there. Hilarious.

In my area the Target tracker has been crap. I have a ton of Targets in the area that have both of the 2 packs on there, but then I go and BOOM......nothing.

Don't know if you are aware, but you can get mini cans at any craft or hobby store. They're like $2 and work like a charm! Thanks. Picked up some today. May try to get mini Coors Light labels printed. Looks awesome!!!!!!

I have one right by my house and another about 20 min away. Virtual Wasteland at both. The last thing of value either had was the Survivor Series endcap. I check periodically and there's never anything new. No restock for the holiday at all either.

I don't see why Mattel couldn't just do a couple generic aluminum cans with no labels. Could even put on the packaging "includes two soda cans". I know I have no desire or intentions of ever buying another SCSA but a couple "soda" can accessories may persuade me otherwise. Don't know if you are aware, but you can get mini cans at any craft or hobby store. They're like $2 and work like a charm!

By the way, any fellow U.K. Collectors here that want these, hit me up. I'd be more than happy to trade for the contract set released there with the Balor basic!
Once these show up in my area that is!

First the HOF 4-packs and T/N/F Elites - and now the HOF 2-packs, T/N/F 3-packs and the retro figures....why do they all have to be (US) store exclusives!!? This is going to cost a small-fortune... Not to mention all the trips I'm going to have to make because of all of the halfassed Walmart/Targets in my area.

Just went out and didn't find a single one. Now to have extreme anxiety until I get these 3 packs and the HOF Target 2 packs. The two places that get exclusives are the most unreliable places in my area. Grrrrrrr.

Didn't head out for Xmas yet, but last night was a Christmas Miracle! As I checked my mail I noticed RSC sent something fast as lighting!

Aside from Chyna & Wendi Richter, I don't believe anyone ever paid to see women wrestle. I've got a big stack of plane & show tickets from the past two years that say otherwise. Also, Japan.
