It seems that ever since the wave of Basics with the shirts came in none of my wal-marts have restocked basics. They still have a good amount of that series. Anyone else having that problem. It seems I'm not having much luck at all lately. My last buy was Elite Jericho at Target in April. Since then nothing. I haven't seen Tensai/Sandow still praying I will finally find Elizabeth. Now my walmart has gotten new elites and battlepacks as I saw the Ziggler/Vicki on last week but no basic series in forever.
Basically I just wanted to know if any of ya'll walmarts are the same way and have a bunch of the signature series with shirts on. I think they just ordered way to many of them and now can't get rid of them.
I can't wait to finally find Sandow/Tensai!!

We honestly didn't get enough of the basics with the shirts. They sold very quickly and with no restocks, I missed the opportunity to get the Miz. I would really like to get one just to swap heads with B30.
What's clogging around here is that stinking Signature Series. Every lousy year since Mattel took over! It warms at Wal-mart and keeps their shelves barren of new product until late August or September. Every year. Without fail. Ugh.

All of my WM's skipped B28 and just got in B29 within the last week. My 2 Targets just got B30 but never had B29. Odd
One of those WM's didn't get the SS Entrance Series Miz/Truth case until a few weeks ago.

All of my WM's skipped B27 and B28. The shelves are still full of B24 and the t-shirt series. The t-shirts were pretty easy to find around here with many, many restocks (even Orton). I'm convinced that t-shirt Truth, Cena, and Miz will be around forever. The only one that was tough to find was Ziggler, and I'm glad I picked it up, as it's a really great looking figure.
I'll be interested to see if B29 ever shows up, but there are so many of Cena, Sheamus, Truth, and Ryder on the pegs that I honestly don't think there's any room for more basics.
Wal-mart here seems to have nothing but those basics and Elite DB, Christian, and Santino for the foreseeable future.

They're clogging the shelves. Though we are getting double packs and Elites in just fine, and they move within a day or two.

I've been walking into my Walmarts and Targets lately and seeing absolutely NOTHING on the shelves. No BP,Basic or Elite. Now i am a huge fan of their product but in my 12 years of collecting I've never encountered this problem until Mattel took over. Not saying its their fault. But its just not fair to drive all the way out to a store, and not even seeing the shelfwarmers. Just empty empty shelf space.

I stopped by a Walmart today that must have just put out more B25, they weren't there three days ago. I walk around to the bike section, there's a box of BPs, open it up, more BP21,damn. This store also has E21 Rey x 6 pegwarming.

1WM has 1 Punk left and the other is full of Ziggler/HHH/Cena. Neither has ever received the Orton/Miz/Truth so I broke down and finally bought those online.

Toys R Us bad for me to. We just had a new one open and I figured if they were going to be opening a new one they'd have good stock at opening because the old store didn't get anything in for a month. I was wrong I get there and it's the same old stuff. I really hated that because I just knew they'd have everything I wanted.

All 4 Walmarts in my area have been doing great this year with Elites and 2 packs. They haven't skipped a single series in either as of yet. Most of the sets have been restocked on more than one occasion also. They were doing real well with Basics at the begining of the year, but then each store got stuck with the Signature Series shipper at Easter and has yet to recover. I would estimate that over half of the figures from that shipper are still warming the pegs at all 4 stores, so the last regular series they stocked was 26.
The other retail stores in my area have been completely useless. TRU and Target's shelves have been bare most of the year and Kmart is still sitting on the same stuff they had in December.

My walmart is doing ok with elites, but BP 21 is clogging the shelf and they restocked B23, B25 and Shirted Orton... terrible.

Mine just got hit with over a dozen of those freakin' shirted Ortons. The packaging looks really good, I guess? I dunno, I don't see these things moving much at all.
We did get B29 a few weeks ago, AND E21, so hopefully anyone who's clogged with these shirted figures gets something new, soon.
