Does anyone know, have some insight or work for Walmart that would know why there is no longer a WWE section?

I asked the manager at mine last week about it and he said they had all been deleted out of the system and that usually indicates a reset is about to happen.

Mine has been in reset mode since August--not one figure. . Even when a manager called me after I complained directly to corporate all they did was put out 2 of the ninety nine cent metal mini figs.
It's not a reset. It's stupidity.

The only Walmart in my area is by my work and they have never stocked Retros. What’s the deal with that? Crummy since those are the only things I care about.

Guys, we go through this each year, and those of you who have been here longer than six months who think this isn't what's happening should stop adding fuel to the fire. Wal-Mart, Target, Toys R Us, etc. go through floor resets all the time, usually in the winter around now and then in the summer. They get to a point where they stop putting product out and let the current inventory die down and sell off. They'll then restructure the toy isles with new product. Here are a few examples of past threads, take note of the thread dates. Note too that not everyone will have their stores reset at the same time, but they will happen throughout winter. And also note that WWE & Mattel are not going anywhere soon as their contract is until at least 2021. Feb. 26, 2012 - Resets Everywhere May 30, 2012 - Wal-Mart and Target ResetsJan 14, 2013 - Target Re-Reset Jan 21, 2013 - Store Resets and DropsJan 23, 2013 - Walmart reset done, re-stock coming... Jul 16, 2014 - Target resetsMar 6, 2015 - WWE resets at WM Aug 10, 2016 - Walmart Resets?Dec 28, 2016 - Target reset? Jan 6, 2017 - Target Reset 2017Jan 30, 2017 - Upcoming Walmart Reset/Macho NewsThanks and God bless.

I literally stop by my Walmart every other day to pick up groceries and whatnot. I always stop by the WWE "section". Since August, I have lived through 2 resets now. Not once have I seen inventory outside of 2 mini metal figs for 99-cents. I'm saying no one is doing their job at my local Walmart, and I'm willing to bet same goes for elsewhere. We went through Black Friday and Christmas with absolutely positively no inventory on it. August: none. September: None. October: None. Novemeber: None. December: None. January:?? I know no one is doing their job because after the first reset in August, I saw papers saying what should go where in each aisle. Most of those aisles remained unfilled till mid-September. Star Wars figures alone where in 3 aisles in 3 different areas because they were thrown around.The WWE Shipper had Star Wars Black Figures in them as well as Legos. Now, it's almost 2018. This isn't all because of a reset. It's idiocy on the management. So yes, while this is a reset period, if you don't see something after 6 months (which may equate to 2 resets), understand it's incompetency.

Strange thing to happen, especially during the busiest toy buying time Why is it strange? It happens every year AFTER Christmas, which is the busiest toy buying time, the fourth quarter. In fact resets happen multiple times a year. It's the January thaw. Dont be a rube...

So yes, while this is a reset period, if you don't see something after 6 months (which may equate to 2 resets), understand it's incompetency. I'll back you on this one. I have a Walmart on the road I take to get home after work. I foolishly checked it four to five times a week since October expecting a big Christmas restock only to never get it. In early October they put out the Apollo Crews/ Becky Lynch/ Brutus Beefcake/ etc. set and then coast the rest of the season. No restocks at all. From what I can tell the other Walmarts around here never had anything all Christmas season long, and there are five within close driving distance, like 20 minutes or less in all directions. Walmart did far less than anyone this year for our town.

I mean there's really no other way around it. There are thousands of Walmarts in the US. Some are going to suck. Now, my question to you and everyone that brings up how poor your Walmarts are is this: Are the pegs empty in JUST the WWE section? Are they stocking other toy lines? Because I keep hearing people talk about how bad their WWE sections are, but nobody ever brings up the stocking of Star Wars, TMNT, Marvel Legends, Transformers, Funko, etc. If nothing is getting stocked, then the manager needs to a visit from a DM, if it's just the WWE, then maybe it's a distribution issue.

That's a hard question to ask since I'm not really looking for anything else. However I have been trying to get into the Star Wars line. No black series can be found and it looks like the other StarWars lines never change. The doll section is always stocked. Power rangers has little (and I only know that because it's next to the wwe section). Honestly it looks like the male toys are never stocked. The entire row where WWE sits is a wasteland. Every other aisle is pretty stocked.
