Yeah, it's just bizar what's going on with 7. And my bad, I didn't realize the S8 guys were preorder. Noticed 2nd time I looked at it that delivery is 1-2 months.

So you cant order him on back order individually but you can if you're willing take on all 4 figs.

Distribution, distribution, distribution. Should be interesting next month if 7 & 8 hit retail in larger numbers as advertised. One of these Series is not going to be available long. Glad I pre-ordered my 1st few sets through Ringside, but buy my extras elsewhere. I know it's been mentioned before but I'll recap:
Kmarts only rec'd Series 6, nuff said here. Targets are getting in series 5, but most by me still have Series 3 & 4 clogging the pegs. Walmart skipped Series 3-6 and are getting Series 7 sporadically. Amazon pre-order 8, but not 7 ?
Not including closeout places that got in Series 2-5.
Am I missing anywhere else that carried them in decent quantity ? Are we going to be flooded by Series 7 or is Series 8 going to hit full force next month ?

My area is flooded with series 7. The first 3 cases went quickly at all 4 of my local Walmart’s. The 4th case isn’t moving just yet. They shouldn’t have ordered a 4th case of series 7 and ordered series 8 instead.

Unfortunately big retailers get replenished with whatever is still in their local warehouse. If they have 100 more cases of Series 7 left, that's what they will be getting.

I wouldn't mind seeing another couple cases of S7 at my walmart. I could use another HBK. I think it all comes down to Mattel having a better idea of the demand, so they don't maassivly overproduce any certain wave. I did notice in the MWFP's TRU video that S3 is still flooding pegs at both TRUs they visited in Canada. Finally those are mostly gone from my Targets around here.

Just heads up, Sheik, Ryder and Hardy are on amazon atm for $14 a piece. Braun is there but he was at like 20 something. I got them as a pre-order or back order. $30 shipped for Ryder & Sheik combined makes it worth it to not have to hunt

Retro series 8 sheik and hardy are out of stock in rsc rite now. Does anyone know if they will be back or should I just get on the preorder for amazon for 13.99 a fig. I’ve successfully gotten all at or around retail thus far and just don’t wanna miss out on this series at a decent price. My only draw back is that I’m moc and amazon figures have their package flaws for sure.

So is this a sold out for good situation cause then I’ll just suck it up and do amazon

Sheik has been out and back several times through Ringside. All my packages for Series 8 and most of 7 have come banged up. Don't think it's Ringside's fault but Mattels. as mentioned nymerous times, the cardboard and bubbles are piss poor.

It’s virtually impossible to get a gem mint card even on pegs at retail

Not just retail, I get factory cases from time to time and it's exactly the same. Luckily I sell my extras so I can upgrade my personal pieces. Took me 6 months to finally get a near mint set of Series 6 packages.

I can’t bring myself to sell the doubles but once I get to triples I sell and dump the money from it back into my collection
