I stopped in Walmart this morning for some groceries and some bins for my wrestling figures. I had to check out the toy aisle as I do every time I'm in Walmart. Anyway, there was nothing good in the aisle and I just so happened to peek around the back of the aisle, which I never do. I started to turn back to the front of the aisle to head out and did a double-take, seeing the WWE logo about 5 aisles down.
On a back endcap they had some new display boxes that I hadn't heard of yet. They had one with Brawling Buddies (Rey & Cena), some title belts and rings. Also a display box of B20, with about 2 cases worth of the series, including 2 each of Yoshi and Natalya. Now the one that I was most excited, and disappointed at the same time, to see was a display box of E16. The box only had room for 6 figures and only one figure was missing. The ones that were there were The Rock x3, Ezekiel Jackson x1, and Orton x1. I'm assuming that Punk was the one that was missing since I very highly doubt they would have put Diesel, Nash, or Slater in a box of 6 figures with no CM Punk.
Anyway, be on the lookout for these at your Walmarts!

A case is 8 figures actually and yes Diesel and Slater are both in the first shipment packed 1 per case so you must have missed the ship on those 2. Great find though. Hopin my Wal Mart has those up next weekend as well. Lookin to grab Jackson, McGillicutty/ Otunga, and Trent/ Henry.

No. These are smaller displays that fit on the shelves. One shelf had B20. One shelf had E16. One had the rings, one had the belts, and one had the Buddies. I didn't even think to take pics. Sorry.

These were displays that had the WWE logo on them and no more than 6 figures fit in the Elite display.

The figures on these displays don't have anything to do with the regular case breakdowns. Like the TRU display from last summer where the displays weren't coming with all the Elite 9 figures. I distinctly remember most TRU displays being packed WITHOUT Elite 9 Miz.
So just because you find a display missing a certain figure, that doesn't necessarily mean that you missed it.
Remember guys, the stores don't put the figures in these displays....the displays come pre-packed with the figures already on them. So again, the odd figure distribution is 100% Mattel's fault when they inexplicably decide to NOT include a character.

I saw these last night and picked up a few figures I wanted.
The Elite case had five figures left.... 1 Punk, 1 Slater, 1 Orton, and 2 Rocks.. with one figure gone. I'm guessing that was Zeke?
