I remember reading awhile back that series 2 was supposed to be released early-mid spring at Walmart. I haven’t seen the 1st set since late January. I know there’s a member on here who said he’s a manager at Walmart, is there anything in the system? Has anyone heard any updates on this?

I think I read somewhere they changed it to summer. Either way they should be here any day now.

Someone said that bill commented about them on Twitter. That they would be coming out much later than originally planned.

I feel like something has set them back drastically. Not only this set but everything. There is something that has happened that the Mattel team isn’t commenting on. NXT set back, Flashback set back, the women’s 3 pack is a hush now...maybe these store exclusives are problematic for collectors and Mattel lol.
Anyone else finding things odd? Maybe this links to that whole “take a picture of your WWE section” thing last year.

Stc13 I can't quote anyone right now my phone has a weird glitch that won't let me do it. But Ricky steamboat is the 4th figure according to Walmart. They updated the line up recently.

Maybe this links to that whole “take a picture of your WWE section” thing last year. The pictures of our WWE sections were supposed to send a message to someone in Mattel distribution as proof that there was a bottleneck in getting newer product on the shelves, and it worked, as Mattel reps came and took a lot from the shelves. It all came back for the Survivor Series shoppers at the end of the year, and it all sold too. I can’t speak for everywhere, but here in Maryland and some surrounding areas are caught up on Elites, Basics, and BPs, but something is holding up exclusives on a larger scale. I’m sure they pay a premium to get the exclusive in the first place, but I’d think they would want them on the shelves as quickly as possible to recoup.

In my area, the Flashback Elites sold very well, and the Flashback basics (Build-a-Fink) did as well. Since the next wave didn't appear, it appears Walmart continued to re-order the basics. I am very concerned that the Flashback basics will begin to warm around here, since everybody in the area who wanted them already purchased them initially.
This could potentially wind up being the exact same scenario that we had with Typhoon and Earthquake. They sold fine, but that series of 4 figures were the only plan for those pegs for an entire year. They need to get the new stuff to the pegs quicker. These are coming up on 6 months here soon.

Do you know what he will come with? IC Belt and Robe? No idea, just said "white attire"...there's also a new Jim Duggan listed. Many thought it was King Duggan cause the guy used a pic of King Duggan but he confirmed that he only used the pic because of the facial expression as the new Duggan figure will have a new scan.
