So, I've been checking Toys Я Us on every truck day, & asking.... still searching for the following items;
E23 Macho Man All of BOPPV Wrestlemania 29 Build-A-Heyman figures.... TRU Exclusive Triple H....
I was so sure they'd get SOMETHING in today - at the very least, some E23.... you can all imagine my disappointment to find MORE Build-A-John Laurinitis figures when I went in today right after they opened..... I asked the stock boy, who was putting out more Ninja Turtles if they had ANY new WWE today....
No, he said - they just got is some more older Elites today. But he said he's been watching for them - several employees are also asking to buy them.
So, there you have it - I have some collectors that work at my neighborhood TЯU.... so I guess I might as well not even bother checking for a while - if they bother to get anything new, it'll just be scooped up by the workers there.
I'm traveling this weekend - might check some other TЯU's in the PA area.... wish me luck.
Was really hoping they'd have new stuff during the Buy-One-Get-One-40%-Off sale.... *sigh*.

Same here. Went to my TRU hoping to find the shield, but just more older battle packs

I just ordered everyone I want from E24 and I'm sure I'll get those before any of my stores get E23.... I'm on the hunt for boppv2013 at this point and will grab E23 when they show up, done hunting for them

What's TRU's policy on employee purchases? Unless they get an astronomical amount, they should hit the salesfloor first.

I just pre-ordered the Sheild 3-pack from KMart.com for a good price considering you're getting 3 figures. Always ordered a Daniel Bryan and Kofi Kingston with a title belt plus I got free shipping. Better than driving around to stores hoping they got something new in.

I used to work there and there's no policy, employees used to just hold what they wanted in the back and purchase when the shift is over...a buddy of mine works there and he said that some employees hold stuff for certain scalpers in the area as well...he looks for wwe from time to time for me but he isn't the best or most reliable person so I always have to check anyway lol...My TRU said they got in new battlepacks today so I FLEW up there with such excitement thinking it was the shield...battle packs 23 like r u KIDDING ME

I just got back from my local TRU, nothing. In fact as i was reading this I realized the last set of elites the TRU near me had was series 17, where i saw a Ryder/Kelly Kelly and that was it.

Best of luck in your shark filled waters. Getting out of town is always a good thing, you never know what you'll find!

The shelves at all these stores are such a disappointment most of the time.... finding a well-stocked store is so rare anymore.

I hate showing up on truck day to find the same figures warming the shelves but it certainly feels like xmas when i do get the hot figure of the moment without paying sry over paying for shipping and getting a figure that may or may not be in great condition...
