So I noticed all the Walmarts that were listing Fan Centrals as out of stock, no longer come up when put into Brick Seek. I was at my Walmart today and spoke to the manager about it, showed him the SKU and he said that its not listed as being carried by that store. He said most likely any Walmart that had it listed and it disappeared will not carry those items. Guess I will never see Survivor Series or Fan Central.

VINTAGE WALMART!

I agree with this 100 percent according to brickseek only one store in my area got the display and that stores over 40 miles away, times like this I wish toysrus was around.

Why would you believe anything a Walmart manager says? I’ve had Walmart mangers say this to me for nearly every Flashback Series. They will show up, probably after the holidays.

You'd think that given the option between online and letting them sit for months in warehouses collecting dust, they would choose the one that makes them money. Several of their exclusive series have showed up on their site eventually, it just takes way longer than it really should. |

I would hope your right, but this manager has never failed with what he’s told me I find it hard to believe that only a few Walmart’s in Ohio, Illinois, and Indiana would have gotten them. I think a few on the west coast too. Nothing in Michigan yet. I use to live in Jersey, and to my knowledge, nothing there yet either. If these were that short packed I think we would of heard about it by now. My guess is no other stores will be ordering these until after the holidays to clear out old stock. I do find it ironic that a set called “Fan Central” most fans can’t buy. |

3 out of the 20 walmarts in my “area” got the display. 2 of which are not worth the drive. Brickseek showed all 20 stores until this past week where it onlys brings up the 3 who have them and very little stock remains. I hope these trickle in by cases but have a feeling these shipper were a fast way to get them out and sold fast...and it worked

The shipments are one and done and in pallet displays. What figures where you looking for ? Maybe others can help you get your wish list figures. |

I’m super lucky a friend of mine grabbed me the Survivor Series AJ because there haven’t been any in my area since and that never even showed on Brickseek. Since none in my area have gotten any in. Sucks to as I only want the American Dragon DB. I’ll consider getting one on eBay if I have to but not if I have to pay some insane price for it. Just so stupid to CONSTANTLY push exclusives that really aren’t. Or they’re so exclusive nobody can get them. For example: - TONS of people here, online, and that I know have had ZERO luck finding Flashback series 3 or at least King Harley. I got lucky and got one but I would’ve never had another shot had I not moved at the very minute I did to get it. - Fan Central Series One - Granted TRU was going out of business, but why have these shown up NOWHERE since? I know a lot of places like Ollie’s Discount and Big Lots got a lot of TRU liquidated merch. But NOBODY got thIs series?  Then Mattel announces these store exclusive chase figures and Backlund seems to be scheduled first up for 2019. So what happens? Three weeks before Xmas they show up on WWEShop? Seriously, am I being unreasonable in wondering WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING HERE?!?!? It’s honestly so stupid and it’s REALLY annoying to be a collector of the Mattel wwe line because of this garbage. |

That was what the manager to me when I asked her about the Fan Central Sting vs Undertaker 2-Pack. I gave her a pic of the UPC I had on my phone and she scanned it and said it wasn’t carried in that store. And no later did I finish thanking her that an employee was pulling the display from the stock room a few feet away from up. So I looked back at her and said that was it. lol
