Today on the Major Wrestling Figure Podcast Hawkins mentioned that Mattel confirmed to them that Bob Backlund on WWE Shop was a mistake and was never suppose to happen. So I guess we shouldn’t expect to see Pete Dunn on the website, unfortunately.

Wait, they didn’t even mean to make the figure? No. They meant to make the figure, but he is a Walmart Exclusive that happened to show up on WWE Shop. However it was a mistake, and the figure was never suppose to be for sale on the website.

I’ve been periodically looking on there for Sherri. If they were somehow shipped a couple cases of Bobs then maybe it’ll happen again.

Are you kidding me? These exclusives are just out of control! They are honestly ruining this for me! We should not have to go through all of this to find a figure. This is leading to nothing but missed sales for Mattel. It's infuriating! If we want to pay retail price for a figure like a good consumer, then just let us! Don't make us jump through all of these ridiculous hoops! Stop making it a damn scavenger hunt and breeding ground for scalpers!
It's not working Mattel! Please stop! Why do you insist on making it so hard for your loyal customers to buy your product?

Was really hoping they kept getting these. My Targets suck and Walmart is right behind them in the sucking category. Worried about finding Dunne. It's like come on Target get your craptogether. I don't want showertime Rusev, i never have and never will.

Shame they caught on so quick. Got Bob, but I REALLY wanted Pete Dunne.

I was wondering if something was up. I had one in my cart and when I checked out it said it was unavailable.

I noticed Target has the Bob Backlund Elite in their system. That must be a mistake too.

Does this mean Mattel can finally be blamed for a distribution error or is this the fault of the retailer once again?!

Well there goes the chances of Pete Dunne being obtainable.
