According to Brickseek, none of my local Walmarts have seen an uptick in retro stock. I think we're still a couple weeks away before these hit widely. What is brickseek? brickseek.comInventory tracking system. It's phenomenal if you're looking for figures at Target. It doesn't really work that well for Walmart in my experience. You can look up items by dpci or sku and it will tell you if the item is in-stock in your area.

Guys you should really try and support your local retail, these will be available at your local Smyths. It will encourgage Smyths to order future waves if they are being sold. Thanks for that but my local Smyths (also roughly 35 miles away) still don't stock and won't be stocking series 1 let alone waiting for series 2. I spoke to the manager and have checked even week since then announced them. I love the idea of going into a store and buying them like I did with the original hasbros 20+ years ago but I'm not missing out on getting them just to try and "support Smyths" If they decide to stock them I'll still buy a second set though. Completely agree. I've been holding out but if they're not giving us anything to go on... Hopefully we can all get our hands on these asap.

Called Walmart. Manager was an a**hole. Said they have no way of knowing if or when Series 2 will come until it shows up on a truck.

I tried calling walmarts when looking for Taker and Warrior from S1, anyone you talk to on the phone will be clueless and they would have no idea what series your asking about because they make so many different lines.

I've checked four Walmarts over the last two days and no sign of these yet. Each store only had a few of series one, so hopefully they'll show up soon.

UPC for Series 2(note: it says the closest Walmart to me has 5 in stock, but I was just there and there were 5 of Series 1 only, so the UPC may bring up Retro in general and not just Series 2) Series 1 & 2 loose

You would think Mattel would ship them out to every Walmart around the same time. It's Walmart distabution centers (warehouses). Mattel ships to Walmart, Walmart ships to stores. Stores have to be nearly out of stock.

Stores have to be nearly out of stock. So, they need to be almost out of stock of S1 to get a shipment of S2? Sucks for me, they just got a bunch of S1 last week and they're not moving. I thought someone said S1 was going to go clearance soon? Any truth to that? If they were clearance I may pick them up just to save and resell later.

These look so cool in the original Hasbro ring. I really hope they bring out a ring for the Retro's, I'm pretty sure they will if they're selling well, maybe around Series 4 or 5. That would be awesome!

Guy in the Q and A said a ring is a real possibility, that and women. But no 2 packs.
