I guess Burlington set their sights on all thr old Toysrus stores because they opened one in my old TRU as well. They had a few Elite 55 figures like a month ago. Since then it has been nothing. Waste of time to go in. Also, you'd think Burlington was a awesome store as packed as the parking lot and register lines were. To a toy guy it just looks like another crappy discount clothing dump.

That's....exactly what it is, though I suppose "crappy" is all in the eye of the beholder. It's not a regular stop for me, but I've landed some slamming deals there before. For a spell about two years ago, they were moving the previous season's Nike NFL jerseys, the genuine article, for around $50 a pop. When my wife was pregnant, we got our son's crib there for something in the market of like $60 (look up decent crib prices sometime if you've never played the parent game). I can routinely get my son outfits and pajamas with his favorite characters on them for around $5-$7 for a set of two. If your sole purview in life is wrestling figures, yeah, 98% of the time, Burlington isn't gonna be your place, but there's absolutely a reason they do good business.

Snagged a Pete Dunne at one of my local Burlington stores. $9.99 seems like a good price to me! They also had Jimmy Uso and Samoa Joe but I passed. Hit another Burlington store in the area and they had the chase Curt Hawkins, a zombies series Jeff Hardy and nothing else. Third store had a random basic Mandy Rose and a Mick Foley/Stephanie McMahon battle pack.

Might want to add Dollar General to the list of odd ball stores with elites... walked into my local DG and found a whole case of Wrestlemania elites; Trips, Sasha, Undertaker, and Hall, for $15 each. Not exactly a steal, but prolly good info to know.

The hood Dollar General didn't have any wrestling figures at all. They really didn't have much of anything toy wise except little cheapo stuff. There's another one not too far I'll check out later this week.
Marshalls had some 2 packs, KO & Sami, an opened package of AJ & someone else, matching basics of Big E & Xavier Woods, and a retro Ryder.
Has anyone found Elites at Big Lots the past couple of weeks? I haven't spotted anything other than basics, and now their over loaded with those Sound figures or whatever they're called. Regret passing on Rey multiple times.

The one closest to me hasn't had any Elites for ages.

The one closest to me hasn't had any Elites for ages. Yeah about a month ago I found E67 either 2 or 3 times (restocks) but that store hasn't had any since. I believe it was early last week at another store they had a full spread of e62 and I picked up Sting & Dude. Since that day they're sitting on 2 Roman's and the others are gone (AOP, Braun). They got more of those other figures I mentioned with some basics. Love paying $10 for Elites, here's hoping more to come.

I bought like 3 complete sets!

Don't know if Walgreens counts for this thread but I picked up Mabel w/the M from there. At another store they had Rowan & Karl Anderson elites.

http://instagram.com/p/B5MvfjNgEkC TJ Maxx keeps getting specially packed sets that I’m not seeing anywhere else. This 4 pack with ring of the 12 inch figures is going to be awesome under some kids’ trees.

I guess. From a kid's point of view, 3 out of 4 of these guys don't wrestle on tv at all anymore. Sometimes I wonder about the choices and the target market for items like these.

OK so out of the stores mentioned in this thread, Are Big Lots & Walgreens the only one's that sell Elites?
I've only seen basic style figures at the rest that I've gone to. I know someone said Dollar General had elites, but I went to 2 stores a few times and they didn't have any WWE at the time. (Never been to Burlington but there is a new one nearby I'll check out).
