Canada is wrestling country. So why are we ignored? Seriously Bill, this is just plain silly now. HOF 2 was nice because we had no more targets. Then no Heenan Family, not even any Horsemen... No wcw ring with dusty...no TNF series 1 and now we're not gonna get Series 2!? NOW I call FOUL. I want that typhoon, quake and savage and I don;t want to pay 60$ a pop off ebay when its a fargin Walmart exclusive. We have walmarts too ya know? We're allowed more than 1...
Can you pls maybe pass a memo along somewhere and help up out? PLEASE!?

I hate being rude, but do you really think Bill has any say? You should ask Walmart Canada or Super Tire or whatever the heck stores are up there.

I did and they got nothing back. after a month and half I asked again and they said they still had heard back about the figures. Not even Walmart Canada knows why they don't have these...sad sad sad. Obviously he can't pull out a wand and fix it, that's why I said maybe pass on a memo about it. But hey he's not an idiot - if exclusives didn't sell well in canada he'd know wouldn't he? I'm talkin just exclusives. I'm surprised so many think he wouldn't know figures. So he's just 'me make little statues' man?

Can you pls maybe pass a memo along somewhere and help up out? PLEASE!? you're literally on a wrestling figure message board where for the most part people here tend to be nice. Surely there are nice people on here who would gladly buy you the item and have you reimburse them for retail and shipping. I can't imagine it being $60 at that point. If you buy on the bay you do so at your peril. I've bought because there have been figures I've had no luck finding at retail. So, I know Ill pay a premium. And it's not even because there are unscrupulous people there. I know when I sell at auction, I'll list a basic at 10 and by the end, it'll be 60. That's not the sellers fault. But I digress. If you ask nicely, maybe someone will help you. It definitely is terrible that the States get more exclusives than Canada. But, there are people who can help.

Bill's job is to design the figures. He doesn't have connections to talk to Walmart and tell them to start selling more WWE figures in Canada.
Best thing to do is to complain to Walmart everyday.

Bill designs the figures. He doesn't do distribution.
He didnt even know that 3 packs hit Walmart until yesterday, and thought Shield wouldnt be out until Spring.

On more then one occasion Ive found stuff for Canadian members here. While being in the Southeast are pickings are almost just as slim, Ive never had problems picking stuff up when people have asked.

It looks like my store won't get the 3 packs or the retro figures. I think Bill would be completely exhausted if he had to work on a lot of other things outside design. It's probably why they hired David Vonner as a manager and I'm sure above him is another manager. I'm not sure, but there might even be a Mattel Canada or an international division that handles things outside the U.S.

Because Canada's pride and joy are Elite 39 figures. We don't want new stuff when we can continue to model that line on the the pegs everywhere.

I went to my Walmart today ... (Located in Canada) must still be 40 elite 39 figures
We aren't getting anything new till maybe 2024... They have been on a clearance rack for 24.99 for a year. Not even a cent cheaper than the other elites I believe
