So anyone notice there WWE sections redone/moved at Walmart again recently? I was at my store around 6am today and the shipper had been pulled and sitting on a pallet across from the WWE aisle, having been replaced by other merchandise. No current spot marked for retros in the other spot in the aisle. Really hope it's a brief redesign and they're going back out wether in the shipper or on a new spot in the aisle. The new Walmart sets are awful. Not just for the WWE figures, but for most of the other toys as well. There is no way that the person(s) that designed this set knows anything about toys. You can't put carded figures like the Retros, 2-packs or Mutants/Zombies on a bottom shelf. They need to be hung on a hook. I "modified" the POG at a couple of my stores last week, no one has changed them back yet. I made sure to get the Retros on a hook. Do you know if Owens or Reigns from the Retro's Series 1 will be stocked in Walmarts anymore?

Doesn't sound great, although, I'd be surprised if they don't bring them out again. From what I've seen, most stores were just throwing the Retro's on the bottom shelf anyway. Did you get a glimpse of any of the figures on the pallet? I didn't want to be seen by staff poking at stuff that wasn't out on display again, so I didn't really get a look. But I'm sure it's still the same 9 retros they've had for about a week now, all Warrior and Cena. Intristinly though, when I just checked brickseek a moment ago, another store down the road from where I work has 6 in stock, and before tonight, I've never seen any show up for that store.

Many thanks. Sounds like the new store you checked may have just got Series 2 in. Hope you find them soon!

They still have 6 in stock it says, so I'm assuming it's series 1, so not going to waste my time. If it were S2 I'm sure they would have flown off the shelf by now. I will have to check my other store in the morning and see if they even have the series 1 out for sale or if they're hiding them in the back.

Has anyone seen the tweet from ringside saying you can now pre order 4 new retro figures Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins, AJ Styles, and Goldberg? Trying to figure out if its part of this retro line or not.

Yes it's 4 retro figures. Most people stated this was series 3 line up, but Bret hart, ric flair and Shawn Michaels were supposed to be part of it. I just ore ordered Aj and Seth. Early October is not a bad wait time

Trying to figure out if its part of this retro line or not. On the RS product page, it states "These figures have a throwback to the Hasbro Style of the 90's!", so I'd say that was a good indicator.

I'd order a few Goldbergs, but we really need more detail, are these exclusives or will they be at retail too? What version/era is the Goldberg etc.

Oh well, noticed the option for the all 4 was gone already, so decided to jump and order 3 Goldbergs. Hope it turns out to be a good figure and they give us further details soon about this line.

Just of note I drove to that Walmart this morning that had the 6 retros in stock that hadn't had any in the past. Got there and they have nothing, very small WWE section, and no shipper to be found here. Staff was nice and all and tried to help, I mean they must have some, someplace in the building. I don't know how Walmart can't locate merchandise that's supposed to be on hand. I'm guessing they're kicking around somewhere in the back unaccounted for.
I really hope these are not a Walmart exlusive from here on out. If I can get them all on ringside for about 15 a pop like the new presale, that would be worth not wasting my time and patience dealing with Walmart.
