Went to Target this morning for my annual day after Christmas trip to buy clearance Christmas lights, and stopped at the toy aisle. All of the zombies are on clearance for 6.98 and the Dusty WCW ring was marked down to 27.98. I really wanted to pick up the ring, but I am tapped out from the holidays. Anywho, wanted to give everyone a heads up to check their targets!!!
P.s. They had four pegs cleared out that previously weren't without tags on them. I assume to make room for the HOF4 and two packs, will keep everyone posted.

Thanks, but they're already wiped out at every store around me(would've bought a second sealed one, oh well). I think Mattel took all those "wait for clearance" comments to heart, because stuff is disappearing a lot faster. I think I already missed the New Day set, what wuzzat, two weeks? Good gawd.

The zombies arent moving here at all.....Kids are just not buying into them at all. Don't think the mutants will set the aisles ablaze either If I'm honest!!

The Zombies have done nothing but rot the shelves over here, down from £16.99 (which was way too much anyway when you can buy an Elite for £2 extra) to £9.99 in Smyths.. I'd say I can't wait to see them go but then we just got the Mutants series in so it seems like it'll only be more of the same...

They look like cheap knock offs but 50% dearer than basics. Madness |

Please folks unless you are doing some WWE based night of the living dead with your figures it's a horrible idea for mass production. For one it's like 7 figures so there's no longer term collection wall. So when they post stuff at comic Con and you are like man please Mattel make those a regular line then you realize it was a passing fancy and now you don't even want them lol. I'm just glad they only produce guys who have normal figures and not guys like zombie Rhyno or zombie Austin Aries or someone without a normal figure.

None of the kids in my family that are wrestling figure nuts blinked an eyelid at them......they had a "wtf" look on their face early in Dec whilst viewing them in Smyths Jervis Street. |

I guess all the non-Zombie figures fly off the shelves and none of them become shelf warmers, right?

I think Mattel shoulda did a comic series based off the mutants vs the zombies. Kids and collectors mighta been more into it then

Nice price for the dusty ring. My target never got it in. The next closest one (about 1hr away) did, might make a special trip for it soon.

As predicted, the Zombies are warmers in a lot of areas. After the "zombie loving crowd" got theirs in September/October, they started moving much slower. |

If they get to $5 or less I'm going to pick up another Bray and HHH zombie.

I thought the whole zombie fad was over around 2011. The zombies are kinda cool I guess but don't really make sense for my collection. I have only so much room on my shelf and only want figures that I will really enjoy.

Why did Target stop carrying the Elite figures?

Zombies are too unrealistic. They should start a new line of dead wrestlers and just sell a figure with its eye closed with a casket and shovel accessories.
