My Toys R Us is still literally FILLED with Charlotte figures. Her B72 and BP with Sasha have been shelf warming since Summerslam 2017 season (she was supposed to make an appearance there, but couldn’t due to Ric Flair being in the hospital), and they don’t appear to be going anywhere. My Toys R Us has probably missed so many Basic and Battle Pack series because of this.

My local Target has 8 NXT Elite Asuka, my local Walmart’s just got the new basic Natalya and Nia Jax and the WrestleMania 34 basic Bayley, my local TRU has 6 elite 53 Alexa Bliss, but I’m expecting NXT Elite Series 3 Ember Moon anytime. I finally picked up Elite 54 Charlotte Flair today at my local Walmart.

Glad to see more being produced and on shelves. They were always hard to get years ago at stores and prices were higher online for them. Only thing is that they don't seem to be getting bought that well in stores..

Anyone notice that those fashion dolls don't sell well. Every time I go to TRU those Fashion Dolls are always clogging up the shelves in the WWE section. It seems like they're a failure

What's funny is that they are marketed at girls but instead of being placed in the doll section of TRU they are placed where the boy toys are. Makes zero sense.

there are A lot more female dolls than there are female action figures and in my opinion, should be the other way around

They make the wrong ones.
Honestly, did we need a 4th Lana?
How many times have the recent Stephanie McMahon and nikki Bella battle pack figures been released now?
But we have only 2 Alexa bliss despite being a 4 time women's champion and only 1 Carmella.

My TRU has 4 of the elite Bliss, at least 4 each of the newest Lana, Natalia and WM 34 Bella/Cena for over a month now. (Well everything but the WM34 BP which they got this past week)

Went to TRU last week and there was 2 figs from elite 53, 2 Virgils, and about 100 fashion dolls, Lana, and the smaller women’s figures like Charlotte. The whole isle was taken over by them and they’ve been sitting awhile now.

It seems like they're a failure Because they are placed incorrectly and being used incorrectly. They should be in the girls section in an attempt for little girls who don't watch wrestling to walk by them and catch their eye.

Careful, it’s not PC to label a section by gender 😂😂. Might trigger all the warriors.

the dolls are a disaster in the boys section and will never sell. Plus they are taking shelf space from the lines we actually want to buy. I would move it and see if it sells there. If not its a failure.

TRU does misplace merchandise in the wrong sections fairly often which leads to product failure. TRU did that with Tomy's Tomica die cast car line. Instead of placing them in the toy car isle they placed them in the educational toy section. This caused Tomica's reentry into the USA to fail

I like the aesthetics of the women's figure with the regressive articulation and have purchased Nia Jax and Natalya. However, I've lost interest in the need to buy every woman wrestling figure long before now. Nothing against The Four Horsewomen, but they have been released so many times that there is no need for me to buy another.

TRU isn't going to see this as the WWE dolls failing or that they are misplaced but will look at it as WWE products not selling and could cause a major cut back in stores carrying WWE products and maybe even cost us some exclusives. I know someone made a poll awhile back asking if the dolls would hurt the main line and everyone got defensive and said it wouldn't but the reality is they are, not in the sense of "girls toys are bad" but the execution and delivery of the products are all but sure to cause failure and it's not going to look good when 40+ percent of the WWE sections rots on the shelf.

Dolls are dolls.
I’ve seen them on end caps in the Barbie aisle before. They need directive to put them with the other dolls of their type, not the dolls we all collect

I think it is because the WWE dolls are out so a lot of the girls that buy the figures of female wrestlers choose those instead, leaving more on the shelf for others.
