I got Elite 8 Drew McIntyre in the mail today and once again, it's a very impressive figure. Great headscan. Mattel knocked the ball out of the park when it came to the Intercontinental Championship as well. It's my first Mattel championship and it look amazing.

Received my CS12 Hollywood Hogan that I won from ebay two weeks ago. It's still MOC and I think I'm going to keep it that way.
Now I just gotta track down MOC CS8 Hollywood Hogan for a decent price and I'm set.

Am I the only one having trouble finding Legends at Walmart? Every time I go to the Walmart on Highway 7 I only see Basics and Flex Forces.

You are not the only one having trouble getting legends figs Nope, def not the only one. At Square One they only had two beat-up boxes of Terry Funk. At another Wal-Mart picked up the very last legend there Hillbilly Jim and at another one, also picked up the last one, Paul Orndorff

Nothing past Legends 2 has made its way to Vancouver and the Lower Mainland to the best of my knowledge. Being so far west sometimes really sucks for collecting things, not just WWE figures.

We had Legends 4 in Canada earlier then the US. Never got anything after that. Bassically, you will only find series 1 at Toys Toys Toys, series 2 everywhere, and series 4 at some walmarts... I was lucky 2 get Warrior for x-mas.

Same in Calgary, nothing past series 2. How far along are you guys for Basics and Basic 2 packs? For us, the newest figures I've seen out here were the Elimination Chamber wave with Drew MacIntyre and for Basic 2 packs, the DX and Jericho/Steamboat wave.

In Canada Mattel is worse with distribution than Jakks was.

We've had Elimination Chamber's for a while. I just started to see basic series 7, Royal Rumble Heritage and two packs series 7 & 8 at wal-mart. At Zellers and Toys R Us, nothing really new for basic series besides the Elimination Chamber's.

In Canada Mattel is worse with distribution than Jakks was. 100 % agree! Reasons: - Skipped Series (Legends 1, 3. Basics 5, 6...etc) - 2 out of 6 Elites - Uneven distribution throughout different provinces (someone plz confirm)

Distribution IS terrible in Canada, especially out here in BC. Not only do we get waves extremely late, but it's not uncommon to miss out on some waves altogether. I read posts here on the Canada board and read posts from the main Mattel board where more US collectors post, and let's just say that I have shaken my head at Mattel more than once.
I remember when Jakks' figures were still around, I could actually go to a store one week and find a new wave, then wait a couple weeks and come back only to find brand new figures on the pegs. This wasn't just at TRU, but Zellers, Walmart, K-Mart (when we had them here) among others.
Terrible distribution combined with sky high prices for figures really makes me want to stop collecting figures but since Mattel has the licence for another few years, it makes it really hard. I don't want to have to resort to buying figures online and have to pay shipping for something I should be able to walk into any toy store or department store and find sitting on the shelf, it's ridiculous.

Distribution here is totally crazy! Nothing past Legends 2, Still plenty of Punk and some Batistas around from Elite 6, Up to about wave 7 now has hit TRU here (the McCool/Yoshi Tatsu wave) but as far along as series 9 in 2 packs at Wal Mart. Basically around here you never know what you're going to find, but likely it'll be disappointment.
