I've gladly found mattel in my area but its always a bunch of Heritage or flex force. What im trying to say is that mattel has way too many lines of basics imo and their pumping these bad boys out like crazy. I can never find basics i've only found heritage, flex force, and 2 packs. What do you guys think, is mattel putting too many lines out and at an unneccesary rate?

dude, flex force is not a basic style figure.

Well, as long as they sell, they're happy. I think the distribution should be more even, and consistent amongst the stores and states/countries. I hate how things are randomly popping up here and there, but not just all together. It's very frusturating.

But i've seen all but basics series one or two. really. The targets by me are full of basics and flex force but no elites. I have seen like 3 evans and 1 kofi plus the rest of series 1 for like 3 weeks straight at Target. |

Go to Kmarts, they'll have basic figures. If you go to the same stores then you should obviously expect to see the same things. I've had no trouble finding any figure at all out of the MAttel series. I've seen every figure atleast once and I'm from the Chicago suburbs.

My TRU finally received Heritage for the first time yesterday. They've had basic Series 1 about 3 or 4 times and Basic Series 2 twice. The problem is that all the single carded basic styled figures have the same inventory # at TRU and same DPCI at Target. Still I've not had any trouble finding any of the Mattel WWE figures.

According to the interview in Toy Fare magazine Mattel is releasing a new wave of Basic figures every month and 2-packs come out every other month. The Elite collection will also be released every other month.

Mattel has stepped up with the WWe distribution compared to their other lines. DCU is almost impossible to find near me. I end up buying from my comic book store.

Or someone is buying them before you see them, again, distribution wouldn't be bad. |

It's very frusturating. Exactly I wish all the stores got the same thing. It's kind of annoying having to drive to a bunch of different ones just to find what I want. I haven't had any trouble finding the Basics although I still haven't seen any Signature Series. Other than that the only thing I can't find is Elite Series 2. |

I think the distribution is fine for them. I mean it was kinda everywhere but i'm sure now it'll slow down and it'll be steady releases from now on.

Ive had no problems. Ive found everyone i go after, and even have found series 2 elites, basics, and 2 packs at relatively the same time they started popping up for other people.

Around the Portland-Metro Area the distribution is great, I just found Elite 2. The only figures I have yet to find other than Basic 2, are Undertaker (Elite or WM) and WM Batista. I still have to get WM Edge and Austin. And I never found the Walmart HHH/Orton Belt pack.

If you want it and don't want to pay shipping you can order it and have it shipped to your local WalMart to save on the shipping costs. |
