ive never seen a trace of Basic 15 in this area...anywhere. how can stores just skip entire series?!
so is it safe to say that Dartmouth TRU will still have a couple B20 Cena & Rey tomorrow? I want to pick them up to complete my COO HHH order, they are the only ones i need from the set.

Made a few nice finds at different TRUs
Framingham - Got Ultimate Warrior Heritage. They had them all but I only wanted Warrior.
Dedham - Picked up Natalya and another Warrior. They had them all, but like that, that was the only one I wanted.
Peabody - Picked up another Natalya. Wasn't going to, but for 6.99.. why not
In conclusion, the two basic series that are popping up in my circle of TRUs are B16 and B20 (I've also seen B19). What the hell happened to B17 and B18?
All for $6.99 each. Couldn't resist!

They had all the usual TRU basics plus the Global series. I don't think I saw a Yoshi there, but i picked up the last Natalya.
I did see a Yoshi... i think at the Dedham TRU. The card wasn't terribly crisp, but I didn't really want the figure anyway.
The $6.99 TRU Basic sale will probably go on as long as the Triple H COO promotion goes on. That is my assumption. They just want people to buy all the stupid Cena's and garbage that is clogging the scene. It must cost like a quarter to produce a Cena these days, so they don't care how many they produce or how many they put in a store. The store just won't try to re-order wrestlers.

and BTW.. I did make another trip to BIG LOTS in Billerica.
They only had Bam Bams and Akeems. Someone went up there and bought all the Macho Mans and DM that they had.

Damn the only one from that set I want is Tatsu and the peabody tru is the only one that ill drive to. Well that and Woburn. I really want to take advantage of both the COO HHH deal and the 6.99 sale but there's nothing I can find worth buying

Chip I think they should have those figures tomorrow they had what looked like 2-3 boxes one guy had a Natalya then I left with my kid to another sectio and came back and they had more on the shelf cause pegs were full and that's when I seen my Natalya and the guy who got the first one told me a guy before him got a bad boxed Natalya do they got a good bunch in and I have never seen basic 15 at all anywhere I seen wade barret series 15 one time at rite aid in acushnet ave in new bedford I had to order my Layla and Brodus months ago off eBay I paid like 20 a piece-__- but I'm glad cuz they never came around at all minus the barret sighting I hope they have them tomorrow they should if I would of knew I would have hid them for u also turtles have there own section now in the isle behind wwe near power rangers not just an endcap

i had an epic day of hunting....havent had that much fun since the Jakks days.
i hit 11 stores
Brockton TRU, Brockton Walmart, Avon Walmart, Abington Walmart, Fairhaven Walmart, North Dartmouth Walmart, North Dartmouth TRU, Fall River Walmart, Swansea Walmart, Swansea TRU, Seekonk Walmart.
Brockton TRU has garbage
Brockton Walmart has garbage (havent done their reset yet)
Avon Walmart has BP17...bought the Trent/Henry
Abington Walmart has BP17 (no Trent/Henry) & B15 (Wade, Cena, Kane....first time I've ever seen that set at retail in this area)
Fairhaven Walmart has E16 Zeke, Rockx2, Orton, Punk (grabbed) & BP17/BP16 (no Trent/Henry or Otungacutty)
N. Dartmouth Walmart has garbage (hadn't done their reset yet)
N. Dartmouth TRU has E15 Henry, Bourne, Truth, Rey, Cara (gold) and about 3 cases of Series 20 (1 Sheamus, no Yoshi, few Barrett, 30 Rey & Cena)
Fall River Walmart has 2 cases of BP 17 (Bought 1 Trent/Henry, trying to trade it for an Otungacutty pack) and nothing
Swansea Walmart is a mess....they are remodeling, however they have Elite 16 CM Punk x1, Rockx2, Orton & a Diesel (which I grabbed)
Swansea TRU has garbage
Seekonk Walmart has BP17 (Trent/Henry x1)
So it looks like Walmarts are re-setting in the area, but at random. Most had empty space for new Elites (I'm assuming 16) but hadn't stocked....most had the usual peg warming basics....and it seems like we are getting BP17 in droves instead of other sets.
I'm hitting a few more Wally's tomorrow (N. Attleboro, Providence, Warwick) the hunt for Otungacutty continues!!!

you need to use an image hosting site like photobucket or imageshack then you copy the image URL into a post. There is an Elite 14 Big Boss Man & Booker T at walmart in North Attleboro (also a Rock) and a bunch of BP 18 & 17 (no trent/henry OR otungacutty) yeah there were 3 Christian/Orton & 1 Del Rio/Big Show....but no  ING OTUNGA/MCGILLICUTTY I swear the figure gods just do not want me to find that set at retail |
