Just wanted to know your guys opinion on this, do you think this figure will shelf warm? None have hit my area yet, but at it's current retail price tag, I can't see it flying off the shelves quickly.

It will at Toys R Us since it's thirty bucks there, it's selling fine at Walmart, they've already sold most of two cases (1 left on the shelf today)

I think it will sell OK. I’ve seen it at all the stores I’ve been to recently. At 30$ I don’t think it will fly off shelves

I haven’t seen it around much, but I’m not buying it at $25

I don't think it'll perform any different than the first Entrance Greats series or either of the two Defining Moments runs. I hope I'm wrong, but I will be checking stores like Big Lots if they shelf warm.
TRU near me is selling them for $34.99

I don’t think it will warm. I personally like the figure. I picked 1 up last month & haven’t seen it since.

I don't think it will, but for $30 bucks it ain't gonna sell so fast. I'm also failing to see what is so great about the Entrance this attire is based on.

Where are people seeing the figure? None of the Walmarts near me have tags for it, Target doesn't seem to be carrying them, and even Amazon doesn't have them available through Prime. If, and I stress if, retailers aren't ordering these figures, that's a very bad sign.

My 4 Walmart stores and 1 Target store have all said they are not stocking it...so... At $30 it's a cash grab. I'll wait it out and find it cheaper.

I'm in Northern KY for anyone wondering.

I bought 1 at TRU plus my 5 dollar rewards coupon. I plan on buying another when I find it more reasonable.

I'm in Northern KY for anyone wondering. DM stalled at retail at a similar price point, and from what I've seen the new boxes are huge. It's possible toy buyers decided to because of the poor sales at a similar price point last year and/or to use the peg space for different products. Amazon not stocking the figure is a much bigger question to me. I can't remember any non-exclusive release that they haven't had for sale.

I think you're right, I didn't see Nakamura/Macho/Jericho anywhere but TRU and once at Walmart, makes sense. No clue about amazon, they're usually ahead of/around the same time as retail, hopefully they do end up stocking them.

A figure with such a high retail price and a figure to relaunch a line should be an absolute home run that makes collectors think "there's no way I'm passing this up even at 30 bucks!"
Unfortunately a ryback body with a buzz lightyear head isn't that home run. The fact is there will be loads more angles and they will have to be better than this one because they pretty much couldn't screw it up much more.

My preferred Walmart is stocking 2 EG's at a time. First time I saw them on the shelf they both went quickly, picked myself up one of them last week after a restock.

At $30 it'll warm, at $25 it's just right(imo).
It's a cool figure, I could never get the TTL back in the day and always wanted it, so I'm a little biased.

I said it was 25 at Walmart yesterday and my comment was deleted.
