Battle Packs 2 Mason Ryan and Randy Orton. Anybody else have their local TRU clogged with this crap? Sure Mason Ryan is nice and it's a figure debut, but that Orton is garbage. His beard looks incredibly stupid and has been well discussed how it looks like Red Skelton's hobo character with the painted on beard.
I can't say that I'm a fan of packing a figure debut with someone I don't want another figure of, or the fact that most of the two packs have one dud i.e. Awesome Cody Rhodes comes with sh*t Rey Mysterio. I can't say I'm a fan of putting a 2 pack with Orton at 3 per case. I can't say I'm a fan of ToysRus ordering more of that set when they sold out of the BP3 which didn't include the Bellas or Sin Cara but were "value" priced at 24.99 a pop.
My Toysrus has around 15 sets of Mason Ryan and Randy Orton, and one set of Miz and Riley. Guess I'm going to have to get the Bellas and Trent Baretta online since Target only gets the FlexForce two packs and Wal-mart around here has phased the 2 packs out of their resets.
BP Orton vs. Ryan has and still is clogging the shelf worse than Elite 12 Orton around here. Am I alone in this?

I've passed on this set loads of times, an the strange thing is I actually want it. Never pulled the trigger. Now that it's gone from our shelves, I doubt I'll get it.

I think any 2 pack that includes Randy Orton probably isnt going to sell well. You can pretty much tell the good stuff from the bad stuff by what goes quickly on mattel's site and what sticks around forever and ever and ever on there.

I personally haven't found this set retail, but then again I haven't found any of the sets from that series retail. I ordered it online for the Mason Ryan debut figure. Really nice figure if you ask me.

actually no, there's been a couple at each of the TRUs & Walmarts in my area but it's sold out for the most part.

Interesting. Our Toysrus became flooded with them when they put the shipper out at Easter time. Love the Mason Ryan figure, think it's really nice. The Orton though. It's not the headscan mind you, because I bought that one when it was in B12, it's that amateurish paintjob that looks stupid as hell. And at 3 per case...ugh.

My Toys R Us has, like, 25 of this pack, no lie. We are not an Orton friendly town here in York.

I haven't seen that 2 pack at any of the retail stores over here. My target currently has a ton of Usos, Drew McIntyre and Cody Rhodes, and Rhodes and DiBiase 2packs.

Orton vs Ryan and Orton vs Christian are the only 2packs I have at my TRU. I also have about 20-30 Cena singles figures, please, anyone, come buy them.

It clogs around me. I've lost count how many times it's been restocked at 2 Walmarts and Target just now got them. Must be close to 20 sitting here. Macho/Punk have sat too.

One would think Mattel would look at this and take notice on what sell and what doesn't sell, but who are we to say right? I can't say that these are clogging in my are, but we just got these recently. They are selling but they aren't flying off shelves either.

Nope, it's sold out at all my TRU's and Walmarts.....the main problem with 2-packs is still John Cena/R-Truth.
Hell, even the 30 John Cena/Rock 2-packs sold eventually....but that John Cena/R-Truth pack is reeeaaallly causing problems at my stores.

They sold like hotcakes at my Walmart. I was glad I bought it when I saw it.

Strange thing happened at one of my Walmarts. They had 4 Ryan/Orton and 2 Rock/Cena. Then they all disappeared for about 3 weeks. Today they had one box of BP16 on the pegs. No way did those older packs sell.
