Checked out 3 walmarts this morning... no sign of TNF elites... only elite I saw was Sid. Talked to my buddy again and he is adamant he saw the TNF line. So I guess we'll have to keep an eye out! Happy hunting.

So no signing has been announced yet unless we have a Dean Ambrose/R-Truth situation.

My local Walmart put out all the old Elite 39 figures again on a display case in the middle of the aisle for people to walk by and not purchase. The best is too that the $20 price that was on them is gone and they are all back up to the $24.86 price.
So I am now officially retiring from heavy collecting wrestling figures. There is no point. We are suffering so badly when it comes to the Elite lines. I kept up to date by ordering from the USA, but with exchange, shipping and such, I am paying out so much extra that I could have used that money to buy more figures. But nope, shipping and exchange has to make it difficult.
I already started selling off my basics, but I think I may start to sell off a lot of my elites too down the road. Maybe keep the best of the best that I enjoy and then use that money to buy stuff that actually COMES to Canada.
Sorry I kind of went on a rant here, but I guess I am just annoyed so much that nothing new ever comes here to Canada anymore. You guys who wanted Balor are lucky, that was at least a new figure that came to the TRU stores. But it would be nice to see new elite lines hit our Walmart stores too.

Walmart in Canada really needs to step it up with their WWE line. Too many figures don't come here and for what reasons? Bilingual packaging? Consumer base being different in Canada?
You to go Walmart in the US and their WWE section typically takes up a huge chunk of their boys action figure wall, it's glorious.

You to go Walmart in the US and their WWE section typically takes up a huge chunk of their boys action figure wall, it's glorious. Bilingual packaging plays a huge part. Look at Target for example, they couldn't simply truck their branded merchandise across the border because it didn't have the bilingual English/French packaging. Would have saved them quite a bit of money, I'm sure. Also, it comes down to what companies order - a company isn't going to make bilingual packages if there are no orders from a country that has ordered them.

When there's nothing new to buy...you gotta go ahead and make your own new figs... Wrestlemania 1 Main Event Complete (I have Snuka too, just couldn't be bothered to dig him out "Brudduh")

Checked a few wal Marts today. Nothing new. It's kind of depressing, isn't it?? Like, I used to get annoyed with it, but now it just comes as acceptance really. There seems to be something up with Canada Walmart stores not getting anything new for quite some time.

Plus with the amount of time, amd has spent looking for new stuff, I think it's easier to make a monthly trip to buffalo.
