Macho Man is on ringside. Probably won’t last long.

Mattel needs to do something about this distribution, kind of frustrating that people are getting series 6 already and I haven't seen anything passed series 3 - and series 3 has been out for months around my area.

Yeah, every time I go back to my Target there are still the same two pegs filled with series 3. At this point I can forget about seeing anything new remotely until next year probably.

Just found Series 6 at a K-Mart in Redwood City, CA Oddest of places lol. And 15.49? Crazy, not that 13 is good either. I don't think we have a Kmart around these parts at all anymore. Sorta thought the last of them had closed around the country, but I guess a few hang on then? If you download the Kmart or Shop Your Way app you can get coupons to get money off your purchase or money towards future purchases. You just have to load them to your account. I plan on doing this tomorrow, if they have them in stock.

Macho Man is on ringside. Probably won’t last long. Gone again it seems, shows he's available in the 4 pack though. Oh well, bought a 2nd one last week anyway, so I'm good now until the next preorders come up.

Yeah, every time I go back to my Target there are still the same two pegs filled with series 3. At this point I can forget about seeing anything new remotely until next year probably. That's how the one 15 mins away is like for me, pegs filled to the brim. The one across the street just has 2 of Roman left though, (5 in the system though accourding to staff member I asked). But said nothing on it's way at this point in the system. I know Mattel is probably to blame for a lot of this, but I doubt the retailers are innocent. I know Target has always had a mmb (music, movies, books) expert. Why not a toys/collectibles expert? If you had someone in charge that had a clue as to what to stock and when to clearance stuff, maybe it would help? I don't collect any other lines, but the other stuff doesn't seem to change much either from best I can tell. Why devote the floor space to stuff that doesn't move? It also doesn't help when by the time a wave of figures hits shelves it's been available online for upwards of 6 months already and a sizeable chunk of the people that wanted them already have them by then.

I understand everyone's frustration in trying to find the retros in the wild. I have been looking for months on end and in the last few days I have found some series 4 and 5 at Target. The only catch is Super Target stores seem to be the only ones getting these retros in, every normal target shows no incoming stock. Frustrating, but some hope.

Intresting, my Target was sort of a super target when built, it was called Target "greatland" whatever that means. But they removed the "greatland" sub title after a remodel. Said they were just rebranding them all as just "Target". It has 2 sets of main guest doors. Is this one technically a "super target"?

My closest Target is attached to the side of a shopping mall and about half the size of a Super Target and they got S4 in. No Series 5 though.

Noticed all the seth, dean. Aj goldberg series but a few are left at my target. No clearance but I doubt anyone bought them. Wonder if they are heading to discount stores.
Hope the new series filters in. Wish they would drop the stands and the price though

Went to the Super Target in Tinley Park, IL again this morning. I have found all of series 4 & 5 there since Saturday. Picked them all up, seems like they keep a fresh inventory coming in although still 2 Goldbergs sitting.

Kidding, brother.I'd do the same! Haha.. Midlothian local here. Props on the haul, man!

Got Bryan, Bray, and Nakamura from K Mart today. Paying $15.49 each stung like a motherhugger, but I figured since nobody else in my area seems to want to stock these, that I'm basically paying regular retail plus shipping, which I was going to have to do anyway.

I still haven't bought a retro outside of series 1 and 2. I wanted Flair, Savage and red Sting but I can't find them for a non-scalper price.

At this stage I believe Ringside is the best route for Retros. Less stress. Quickest release.
One bit of good news for in store hunters, Series 6 was spotted at Target in MA yesterday.

Any chance Wal Mart picks this line back up? Kinda strange they don’t carry them. Seemed to sell fine while they did. Now that they don’t, no one can even find the things.

I seen the series with Flair at Target. I don't collect these though, I'm already behind on certain elites.
