Just out of curiosity what main line Elites are you having trouble coming across? I’m in the same general area as you I believe, and the only thing we haven’t gotten is E61. Targets are even getting in E62 now Only asking because every GameStop I’ve been in in the area has Elias, Angle, Giant, WM’s have E54-60 in full force (minus 57). I know we had a huge problem from E40 - E53 but since the packaging change I’ve felt our area has gotten steady flow of mainline Elites 57-59 were largely swing and a miss. I only just really saw 56 this past month. Elite 60 was mostly only at GameStop. Granted I don't hunt like I used to but I can't imagine that the stock is just selling that fast. And if it is, reorder more. Why stores are like "we sold out of 8 figures. That's good, let's not try to sell 8 more." I won’t disagree. It’s not good by any means but they’re around. I’d say 57 is the least amount I’ve seen around here, but the others have been pretty plentiful for me anyway. Maybe this next season and year will be better

I know a lot of us criticized RSF a lot but now that I'm removed from the reveals, has anyone considered that the "lackluster" showing was due in part to the issues that Mattel and other toy companies had to deal with when their main source of distribution (TRU) went under? I'm sure a lot of companies were asking their teams to hold off on future runs because we need to first get contracts organized. I think it's less about TRU and more the general financial issues Mattel has faced that were compounded by TRU. Mattel laid off 1/4 of their total workforce, mostly in manufacturing, and were looking to sell a number of factories. There is literally no way they could keep up the same production pace with fewer employees and factories. I think we're going to see far fewer figures in 2019.

Was there any mention as to why Roman still doesn't come with a closed fist despite figures now including interchangable hands?

Man I wish there was an easier way to post pictures on these forums. It’s a bit ridiculous. You’d think with the impact of social media there would have been some adapting on here.
