Update - Just went to my local Wal-Mart during lunch and they had the new aisle formats posted up. Looks like WWE is getting a pretty decent section with three pegs of 2-packs, three pegs of something they called "WWE Figure Asst", and three pegs of Flex Force. On the shelves they had places for Flex Force w/ Accessories, Belts, Rings, etc. I checked the numbers on the format against what I had bought and found the "WWE Asst" matched up to the WM Heritage line. No sign of Elites anywhere. So I guess the real question is: Will Walmart carry Elites at all? I don't remember reading where someone had found them there and they weren't on this store's format. :/ From what I've seen, WWE Figure Asst are pegs that are going to be dedicated to Basic, Wrestlemania Heritage, and the Signature series, instead of giving each of these lines their own separate pegs. One Target I went to had the Wrestlemania series on their WWE Figure Asst pegs, while at the next Target they had the Signature series on the WWE Figure Asst pegs.

Yeah, I guess a better title for this thread would now be "Walmart not carrying Elites?". That's really the bigger issue to me. It's really baffling, considering they carried Deluxe Aggression (which is essentially the same thing, but a couple of bucks more expensive). Surely it's not because the line is geared "more towards the collector" because they carry the Entrance Greats - THE Mattel "Collector's Line". I really don't want to make two-hour round-trip journeys every time a new Elite wave hits. (And I won't order them online, given the problems I've had with two right feet on the same fig and the paint errors I've seen).
