What sucks about the packaging of the current Elites and the old Jakks Classics is that you can open and reseal with really no problem. Kind of stupid and could always lead to fakes and missing stuff in the box. Ever really think about that?

i dont understand how Dartmouth can stock cases of B20 but no other TRU in the area.
seriously what the hell is wrong with Mattel & their distribution?

Yeah but the retail stores aren't the ones making more in demand figures 0.5 per case. That's all mattels doing.

well maybe retailers should change their ordering system
i can walk into any TRU or Walmart and find the same assortment of Star Wars figures....or Spider-Man
supermarkets don't just tell companies "send me what you want we'll just put it on the shelf"
there needs to be some kind of better system of this.
Jakks didn't have this problem.

I find this kind of humorous. I finally saw a glimpse of B20 at retail. Too bad it was only a couple Cenas.
The weird part is I found them at a freakin stop n shop hahaha

they do just order whatever they can get its not like a menu at mcdonalds chip..as for the star wars and spiderman toys they have a bigger market so the order a crap load as opposed to wwe figures or any sort of wrestling related product for that matter..the .5 thing really is a chase game sure its mattels doing but they have you jumping thru hoops just to get your hands on it lol i know just about everyone feels like this but we keep feeding them $$$ so mattel doesn't see anything wrong

Yeah I was just about to post the Lynn walmart update myself but you were there earlier today omen lmao. Well the booker is gone but they have at least one of everything else. Bossman Rock Del Rio still up for grabs. Its good to see that that WM is doing good lately because its the closest one to me and they've restocked E14 several times in the past few weeks. Hopefully the trend continues.
Oh and by the way. Good luck finding an Elite Punk in this area. I've been looking for over a year now and still haven't seen one. The best I've found was the Macho 2 pack. Never seen another Punk Elite or Basic in updated form not once.

Me either the closest i have come to having and elite Punk was when my cousins went to Florida they had his nexus one at a target down there he had called me to tell me and i told him to pick me up one and he went the next day and it they where gone it was the craziest thing 4 CM Punks and they where all gone in a day. |

I was in Ohio last week and did manage to find 2 elite 16 Punks as well as a Slater. I'm not willing to part with them as I was never able to find a Punk E11. They will show up. It's just a matter of time. I mean how many assortments of E13 did we find? E14 is starting to show up regularly as we notice by the posts about finding Booker and Bossman. It's just a matter of time.
We just gotta be patient and keep looking
