I have yet to see the Wrestlemania heritage Undertaker and John Cena but I've seen everything el;se that they put out their disatribution is horrible, but has improved somewhat with the WWE line How is distribution horrible if you've seen every figure but two that were sold out? since it was the mixed case that had Wrestlemania heritage and Signature series if other than that everything would have been fine. the revision waves they have are horrible and don't make much sense half the time especially sinc the case had 3 batistas,

I talked to the Toys R Us manager today, she said this line has been the biggest failure line in the past 10 years, they hyped it up so much internally to the managers and it is a dud, sad....

I havnt found any Basic figures or 2-packs yet. Found the WM figures, so I have 3 of them.

Odd they are calling it a dud. Every single/2pack special figures sells out at my walmart every week. Elite sold out in 1 day , EG's regularly sell as well.

distribution is horrible in the respect that some lines get refreshed,some don't around here...WM never got in basic 1, but put out at least 4 cases of basic 2 already,and now they're pegwarming...they put out 2 cases of Elite 1,but the pegs remain near empty waiting for Elite 2...2-packs,1 case each of series 1 and 2 were put out,only 1 Morrison/Miz set remains on the pegs...never got WM heritage here...

i don't see how a line can officially be called a dud after like 5 weeks and multiple series' released so far...perhaps some things aren't selling like they hoped,but it's WAY too early to call it a dud yet....

Between Target and Walmart, I've seen pretty much every figure that's been released up to this point, so distribution has been pretty good around here, which is kind of weird.
Oddly enough, some o the only figures I haven't seen have been Flex Force.

ok Well here in PA about an hour above philly. It seems like Basic came out right around christmas, now i didnt start collecting until Mid January. and I never found Bourne or Kofi. however what i do see is that HBK, Jericho, and Batista are the Shelf warmers. and a guy at TRU told me until we start selling the rest, distribution wont send me any more. yet they got basic 2 in last week. and now CM Punk is the shelf warmer.
Flex force is a waste
Now as i see it. Basic 3 will probably be out in March despite what other sites report. whats nice now is, that Mickie, Kahli, and Shelton are the Debut mattels and Orton, Taker and Jericho are the repaints. which means the distribution and the amount found will change.
The debuts will be harder to find. yet those who didnt find the WM Heritage orton and Taker now can have them and if they didnt like the first jericho who i see as the shelf warmer again, they can now find him

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. The belt set is on WalMart.com. 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. OK I will definitely have to get on that. I just went to TRU on Hayden Island and found all the other figures that I didn't see before, so I guess that makes my area superb in distribution. I picked up WM Taker, Edge, and Austin.

It all depends on where youre located, if there is a lot of people in your area, and if whoever is ordering product at your stores knows how to order.
They shouldnt have put out so many "signature series" though.

I'm in the Buffalo area, and the main TRU I go to only had a small endcap of Mattel figures, and had old Jakks in the WWE aisle section. I found Elite Rey there, but they seemed to have at least one each of the Heritage guys and some basics. Wal-Mart had basic 2 and all of Elite 1, and Target had a handful of picked over basics and Elite 2. Overall, things appear to be selling well here.

It looks like the Heritage series are now in stock at TRU.com and Elite Series 2 are in stock at WalMart.com

I live in The Palm Springs of Washington and distribution sucks. It seems like Yakima is the last city to get everything. My TRU was the place to get the guys I wanted but their flooded with Signature Series, 4 Elite MVP's, and a crap load of Jakks. The last thing they got new in was the TRU exclusive Edge and Cena belt pack. Walmart, Target, and KMart and still way behind as well.
