So I was at a local Target last night, and talking to one of the employees he said they’re clearing out their WWE figures. No sign of Tito on the pegs, but noticed their selection of both elites and basics literally hasn’t changed in over a month, only dwindled slightly. Do the stores have a say in what they choose to stock? Or is this just some sort of fluke? That particular Target in question does appear to be remodeling, so I’m wondering if that has something to do with it.

Mine is down to like two columns of figs from like 5. And no sign of the latest hall of champions. I am concerned.

Probably clearing out the old to make room for the new. Christmas season is coming. Hopefully this means the new NXT wave will be hitting soon.

Target is to large of a corporation to allow each store to decide what they stock. I'm sure the have a deal with Mattel stating what lines they will carry. That being said I have found some good deals lately.

The store itself has no say abkut what it stocks, its customers do, if the customers buy something and stock levels get low, this will trigger reorders, generally. Stores are told when to reduce stuff by their head offices, if somethings not selling they wont reorder

It doesn't look like they have started a clearance on anything yet at mine, but it looks like they are slowly starting to finally get new stock now that Christmas is on the horizon. I saw the big replica WWE championship there a few days ago and I never remember seeing it at Target at all-only Toys R Us.

They are getting ready for another department reset so they are clearancing out the product on the shelves so they don’t have that much to take down and move to redo the pegs.

Now that you mention it, the one target that I've mainly been going to had about 5 tito's about 3 weeks ago and then 2 weeks ago they were all gone.

My target had the elites scanning on the price scanners at 2.99,only 56 but each guy came up by his own name and at the register 19.99. Something seems to be wrong with their system.

My Target has cleared out recent figures, but still have a number of Tito and Jimmy Hart figures... I'm starting to think Target is doing this on purpose to piss off collectors.

One target in my area priced almost everything down on the pegs. The elite nxt figs were $5.98, hall of champions 2 packs were $7.48, basics were $5.98 and retros were $3.98. I helped clear a lot of it out that I didn’t have but I’ll check back this week and see if they’ve restocked anything.

Honestly if target where to stop selling wwe figures would it be such a bad thing ? It is like pulling teeth to get them to stock new stuff. Then when they actually do get new stuff they have 1 peg for them.
Give amazon the nxt and hoc line, problem solved. Target stores are nicer than walmart overall but they are terrible at stocking wwe figures.
