It's safe to say that this is a bigger shelf warmer than Jacqueline. I wouldn't go that far yet. Jacqueline was a shelf warmer in multiple stores in every town in every city in every state...this seems to be a distribution issue where some stores are getting enough figures to stock all the stores in the state while others aren't getting them at all. In terms of sheer "sitting there"...I'd say Taker was overall probably the worst shelf warmer since the DM line started back up.

I love Warrior but that attire is not what I think of when I want a figure of him. Why this was even a DM is beyond me. Esp over his wcw debut or something like his 96 return.
These deserve to warm.

When Christmas rolls around, a truck load of those will be gone. After there marked down 2-3 times you bet they will sell (maybe). This is just shameful, shameful for both Walmart and Mattel. I think it's that singlet warrior doesn't sell as much as trunks warrior. Warrior figures sell out, but both warriors that was released in singlet form have warmed on shelves.

Mark my words after those are marked down to $5-$10 and chucked into shopping carts people in the area will buy some and try to resell on eBay and find hundreds of others trying to do the same.

It has nothing whatsoever to do with the figure itself. It's awful distribution, over production and over pricing.

One of my local Wal Marts had (and still has!) probably 20 DM Undertakers. They went to clearance for $5 each. Nobody bought them. Now they are back at full price - $24.99 / EA. Only at Wal Mart LOL

We won't ever have this problem here because they don't have room with the mountain of Signature Series CM Punk 2014 and basic Triple H clogging the shelf.
