I know we heard people were finding displays with no Miz. Sounds like Mattel just didn't necessarily pack any of the displays evenly or did as best they could without paying that close of attention.

My display had no Miz. I was there when it was unloaded
I think the displays were just filled with random figures for Basic 11, Legends 5, and Elite 9. I don't think there was any order or specific number that was included in each display.
My display had like 9 Macho Man's.
Anybody else worried that this is it for TRU and that they aren't going to restock?
My TRU never got in: Elite 6,7, or 8 Basic 6,7,8,9 or 10 Legends 4
So I'm worried that after a year of getting NOTHING that my TRU will never restock Elite 9.
I'm sure I'll find Miz at Walmart eventually. I just wanted to have Miz be my 4th figure in the McMahon giveaway. I didn't want to buy something I didn't want just to get the giveaway, but I'll wait until we get a little closer to September to make that call.

The local TRUs here in Long Island got in E8 over the past few days, so check yours for them right away.

Yes I saw Elite 8 at the Totowa & Rt17 Paramus NJ stores on Saturday. I'm sure my TRU in Nanuet will have them out tomorrow as they are supposed to be on the next truck which is tonight or tomorrow morning.

I went to mine today and they opened the display for me. They had only 1 Ryder and 2 Miz's. I only picked up a L5 Macho though because that's all I was looking for.

I seem to have heard problems at TRU for Ryder and Miz. All I can tell you is to keep looking.

I went back to my local TRU this morning and, once again, they still didn't have the display out. I saw a couple of employees stocking new toys, so I went to them and asked about the special display. In a few minutes, they found it and brought it out. Funny thing is, they only had space to put it in the back, in front of the Barbie section. Anyway, it was nice to be the first one to the whole display! Like others here noted, the case assortments are all weird. There were 2 Eve's, 2 Skip's, 2 Ryder's, and only 1 Miz. Legends Series 5 was particularly unbalanced. There must've been about 10 Macho Man's, which is great, but only 2 Bam Bam's, 6 Martel's, and absolutely no sign of Akeem! Anybody else worried that this is it for TRU and that they aren't going to restock? Actually, I had that same thought yesterday when I asked the customer service lady about new Elites and she brought out a sealed case of Series 3! I was really hoping to see E8 figures in the promotional display but now, I worry that these displays will rot with leftovers once the good figures are picked out.

Yeah the first TRU I went to Sunday didn't have Ryder. I was the first one on the display too. So i went to another TRU and he was there. All the displays are randomly packed. Just odd some guys didn't make it in some displays.

I'm sure once Elite 9 hits in full force ata mass retail stores Ryder will become a pegwarmer I don't know, man. They've been out in the UK for a while and the only ones I ever still see much are Orton and Gallows. The occasional Kofi and MVP too, but never Miz and Ryder.

The display my TRU brought out for me on Sunday was pretty evenly distributed. From elite 9 they had more Orton and Kofi's than anyone but still had 3 Miz & 2 of everyone else. Basic 11 was pretty even with the males and it had 3 Eves. Even my Legends 5 wasn't too bad after hearing a lot of people saying theirs were packed with Savage & Martel. Sure Savage had the most but mine had 3 Bam Bam & 2 Akeem if I remember correctly.
I actually stopped again today to pick up a couple more and they still had everyone except the Miz & Ryder from Elite 9. So I got myself an Elite 9 Gallows and MVP plus an extra Legends Funk to complete my Vince purchases. Now it's time to make a Legends Flair out of the Funk to hold me over until we get an actual Flair from Mattel...if we ever do.

Went back to my TRU and all is left is from Basic 11, Big Show & Sheamus. Legends just has Rick Martel and Bam Bam. There's only Kofis and Ortons left in Elites.

The one I went to had a crap load of kofis and a lot of ortons. There were like 10 kofis. I dont recall seeing any mvps. I could be wrong though because once I found miz and ryder that was it. Only one miz and two ryders though.

I ran into a fresh display today and it seemed to be pretty evenly distributed. Didn't notice that Akeem might not have been on there. I do know that before my friend and I got our stuff there were 2 miz and 2 Ryder.

I'm sure once Elite 9 hits in full force ata mass retail stores Ryder will become a pegwarmer I seriously doubt Ryder will be a peg warmer. His basic 10 figure has been at retail since April and people are still having trouble finding it. Besides that, isn't Ryder one of the short-packed figures in this series? My guess is Orton, Kofi, Gallows, and possibly MVP will be the figures from series 9 that will be warming the pegs.
