New Rumblers playsets spotted at Target...

Really?!! Even the limo and dump truck sets?! I had never seen these until yesterday (and didn't even see the dump truck set in person) and only at that ONE Target store. I have hit 4 TRUs, 3 Kohls, 8 Walmarts, 3 Targets, 3 Big Lots, 2 Kmart's and a Toys R Us Express in the last two months and had never seen these. I wish someone had reported these as I had no idea they existed lol!

I really want that limo. I'm gonna end up with so many Del Rios. I already have one (I guess it came in a two-pack with Rey), and I'm planning on getting the one with Christian, the one with Brodus, the limo and the Breakdown ring.

Yeah, I found this limo the past week, at Target, first time I'd ever seen it in stores, and it was on clearance. Kinda silly that it never had a chance to sell at full price.

I passed on the ambulance and forklift, even on clearance, but I picked this limo up, it's pretty cool. But I am pretty much over most of the Rumblers playsets, unless they are damn cool, like the Rumble Rig or the MITB briefcase.

Looks neat, i'm not that interested though

This was out since january

really cool

I don't think the Rumblers have done anything to take away from the main lines. Your SDCC assumption is way off - Mattel didn't stop making cool SDCC exclusives because the Rumblers took away their focus. The EG Taker, which was fantastic, apparently didn't sell well enough, so last year (and this year) they just made free Rumblers they gave away.

There's a big difference from a free little giveaway and big fancy figure you have to pay for. I would love to get another great SDCC exclusive like the Taker they made, too, but it's certainly not the Rumblers that are preventing this from happening, or Flex Force or Brawlin' Buddies or any of those lines.

You do have a really good point with the SDCC exclusives. I forgot that they were free and yes the Taker didn't sell as well as they hoped but they shouldn't give up on making a cool exclusive. However, I still feel these take away from the other collections in general.

When a new Elite set is announced it may take up to 6 months for them to hit retial where I live. When a new Rumbler set is announced it may take a third of that same time. Rumbers got not one but two cages for their little ring sets. If I want a cage for my Elite figures not only is it one that only fits those god awful spring rings, but I have to buy a whole ring to get one. Rumblers get to have cool arena add on's, The real figures are still waiting. Not to mention Rumblers have faster turn around in getting new characters like Kane in his new attire, CM Punk with slicked hair, or Funkasaurus. Granted RSC got in the Basic Punks with the new headscan first, but my local Walmart got in the rumbler of him in that style first. Do you see what I am saying?

You can argue the distribution is better on these because they actually sell, but that is the problem. They do sell, and not just to the little kids they were intended for but to the grown a$$ men and women collectors as well. All Mattel sees is profit, and that is where they are going to put more effort which takes away from the main lines. I don't know what the appeal is, they look like Fisher Price toys, and I wonder if some collectors are buying them just to feel like they bought a WWE figure. I don't see them as real toys. Sorry that is JMO but they get treated like real collectables, when really they should be a fluff item on Mattel's part. BTW they already have fluff items called Flex Force which those two get treated better with all the playsets they get, and better distibution. The only difference is ppl buy Rumblers, I have no clue who the hell buys Flex Force because I always see the same FF's at any given store.

That Rey looks great. ZOMG I bet they made E17 Kofi's belt dull so they could focus on that Rumbler though!

I love the foundless, absurd complaints that some people on here come up with.
