We were all told in the beginning that they were to be in scale with the WWE mattel line. Jazwares has said that before the line even came out because a lot of people were asking because that was a big selling point that they would be in scale with the WWE figures Jesus ing Christ!! They’re the same scale, just a hiccup with two figures, like the skin tone, It got fix, the scale will be tackled aswell. I don’t care about skin tones or scale, I’d just like to have my series 2 shipped at this point 😂. They could come in Hasbro scale for all I care. At this point, I’ll take whatever I can get.

When I got the email I thought it was the Elite 82 but when I checked out my order history on Ringside and saw that it was the Cody Vs. Dustin Rhodes 2 pack I was like holy crap that was fast. I hope when Ringside get more of Series 2 cause I want Jon Moxley, Dustin Rhodes, The Lucha Bros. and MJF, I might get "Hangman Clown Shoes" Adam Page. Same! I just wonder if they had them all ready to go to ship when they put up the pre orders. Maybe Ringside wanted to make sure they actually would have enough 😂

Got my shipping number! I’m shocked. Seeing as how long series 2 is taking, I figured Blood Brothers wouldn’t be in anytime soon.
I got my orders mixed and got excited thinking series 2 shipped 😂 I did not expect it to be the Blood Brothers.

Over the next few months?!?!
Man this keeps getting better 😂. Please stop using the “Pandemic” excuse you guys. Every other toy company keeps going. Heck even Indie toy companies are doing fine. This is just very poor marketing. At this point, they don’t deserve to put any more pre orders up until series 2 is fulfilled.
No one come at me with that “you’re entitled” bull crap either. Many of us have faithfully given our money. We paid, we are owed. If you pay for a product then your indebted to that product. Otherwise we basically just gave charity Jazwares. So yeah we are entitled to what is owed to us.

I mean I’d like to see series 2 in hand before we get any tentative lineups. Is it so far fetched to maybe want what we ordered before being bated into preordering another lineup?

The entitlement of people in this thread is amazing. Consumers aren’t entitled to merch they buy is quite the 2020 take big dog. I was just about to say 😂😂 Like yeah if I drop my money, yes I’m entitled to product or refund compensation! Man Jazwares needs to change their name to Jazwares because this is nuts! If anyone should be able to stock it should be RSC. Well now we know who is to blame. Pretty sad they are doing everyone like this. It makes them look like other figure companies that brag about having Indie and of Legends figures but takes three years to produce them...not naming names or thinking of anyone specifically. Jazwares really had the audacity to gas us up a series that hit stores (barely), a series that is overdue, products that came without accessories, and chase figures that are at used car prices. But hey it’s a good job in Jeremy’s book 😁

I feel like they’ll put another Sherri out somewhere between 11-13.
I’d like to see a few new women Legends made. Maybe Mighty Molly or Jacqueline.

just checked my email and ringside order still saying late October just want my series 2 order to Ship Same. Hoping it's any day now. I honestly felt like today would be the day for some reason. I mean, we really can’t get much later into October lol. With the carded images coming out, I thought today or Monday.

So it’s the 23rd, how much later in October are we talking before these start shipping out? If I don’t get my notification today, I’m just going to assume they’ll be late 😬 It got pushed back to November Sigh....yeah I’m out on these. Not worth it anymore. For a company that wanted so badly to compete with WWE, they certainly have a funny way of doing it lol. These aren’t worth the price, time, energy, waiting. To quote Paula Abdul on American Idol, “it’s a no for me, sweetie.” 😂

Tbh I don’t care about skin tones or accessories. I just want to be able to find the dang things on store shelves!!! lol I preordered Hangman and MJF but didn’t have time to get Mox.
Btw...it’s late October. How much later are we talking, Ringside?

1: Dropping a wave every month....HA!
2: Expanding distribution. HA!
The time for expanding would have been uhm like maybe the initial launch?! Who does commercials, advertising, release date hype, ect JUST to literally send one box to select stores? Oh yeah, sorry, and tons of f’ing rings and plastic belts. The launch date extravangaza flopped more than my bff when he has seizures.
I’ve never seen a man warble for more clout than Jeremy. Having a set of figures that sell out online with month back orders, never show to stores, go for jacked prices on the secondary market...that’s not a success. That’s just gaslighting yourself.
Unless they can legit send out decent boxes then I’m pretty done with it. Heck I’d rather see Omega peg warming rather than bare shelves. Oh and a dang ring and belt a’plenty!
We thought the Elite chase Dunne was bad. These AEW toys are just insane. They are literally the last brand that needs “chase” edition figures. I hate to bash because I was really pulling for these! A whole roster of fresh faces could have drawn tons even if the stores had a few warmers. But woah baby did this sour me. Unless they can mass distribute wave 2, I’m just ordering the bare minimum and that’s even gonna be a stretch.
Rant. Over.

At this point I’m going to have to say Mattel’s WWE is a lot better 😞 Marketing and distribution kicks Jazwares’ a$s. I don’t understand why there was all this hype for one or two boxes per Walmart, or some not at all. I really expected these to hit another wave and sit on the pegs a little bit before Christmas.
Tbh, Jazwares and AEW outta be ashamed of this. They’ve created a mess and think it’s “successful.”
Can’t wait for Wave 2 😁

Glad I pre ordered MJF and Hangman. Can’t wait to see more pics.
Now if I could o my get answer I’m distribution lol. Sorry but the cases sent to Walmart seem like a flat out failure. That or, maybe, Jeremy and AEW want these to be so hard to get ahold of for clout reasons. Lame

To be fair, considering all the COVID stuff going on in the world, there’s no way I was going to preorder something that far in advance Which was a choice. You chose to pass on the pre-order. As did I... but for different reasons. I didn’t pass on them but then again I’m privileged so 🤷♂️

Didn’t want Brandi then, not interested in her now. I’m just ready to start going after these Chases. I am prepared to spend more than retail for that Jericho Chase lol. Same. I initially wasn’t going to buy any of them but it got to me haha. Found and grabbed Kenny and the Bucks early on, then spotted Jericho and Cody. Im just wanting wave 2 & 3 now!!!

Does anyone else think they held Brandi back on purpose? I pegged her as the shelf warmer once the first wave became more settled in. Now she’s the hottest seller JUST because she hasn’t been packed. Holding her back created a mass need for her amongst fans. Sorry but I just feel it was done on purpose so she wouldn’t be sitting there.
I noticed Omega is the last one left on shelves. Not saying he stays long but he’s certainly the last one grabbed. I can wait for Brandi. It’s insane how people are grappling for a figure that really isn’t even all that. That my gentlemen is how you brain wash the masses 😂

There needs to be a happy medium lol. The first Diva’s belt mold (BP 15 & 26 Bella’s and the Elite Kelly Kelly) was way too big.
Then the original women’s belt that came with Elite Trish is way too small. The SD, Raw and NXT ones are a bit too big depending on the figure. Oh and those that came with Wendi and Alundra are micro too!
Maybe one day there will be a belt that will fit snugly. I just feel bad for the Nia figures. None of them fit on her.

Word to the wise, check all around the toy aisle.
My friend’s grandma works for Premium, they stock items at Walmart’s. She didn’t see any AEW in the aisle. Her pal who is the toy manager has stocked them above the bicycles 😂 Never know where they may pop up.
Anyway she found Jericho which was the last one I wanted from this set. Pre ordering from now on. The scalpers and fanboys are too wild. Hunting is fun but this was just like the Pete Dunne fiasco, too much!

Just another update from yesterday. Saw today on brickseek one store where they had them yesterday, checked the back, and told me they didn’t have them. Yet today I see their numbers going down. I’m REALLY getting tired of this nonsense. I'm thinking an employee grabbed them. My parents live right near that Walmart, and my mom checked around 8am and nothing was out (let's ignore being a grown adult and asking your mom to look for toys). She said one of the employees was talking about wrestling figures, so she stopped back around 11 after some other errands, still nothing out but the Brickseek count had dropped to low stock. Even if these ARE available in decent quantities, they're pretty much marked as scalper bait right now. I imagine we may see a bunch of returns once the shippers and revision cases hit. But right now it sucks. Dude no doubt employees are skimming right now. I think that’s what happened to one by me. They had them in stock but the manager denied it. Then at the end of the night, it was out of stock. Fishy. I think it’s super shady right now seeing as how some stores get one case in. That’s not many figures, it’s kind of a joke that one case would even be worth it to get in. I just got what I wanted and left. I have no desire to scalp or take away, especially when the stock was so little.
