I never saw either of the 2nd release Razor/Shawn in my areas. The originals were almost never spotted here either.

I actually saw green card in stores often. All of them but 123 Kid, I only seen Kid available in KB Stores 1 time on the day of an autograph signing at my local mall but for reason my mom would not buy me and my brother the figure. We ended up getting some kind of generic picture autographed, lol. Basically growing up the 123 Kid Hasbro figure was the holy grail.

Only saw them at retail ONCE at Kiddie City, didn't have money to get them and never saw them again. Did buy them again later along with the green cards and yellow cards I never saw, through figs inc. |

Out of all of the Hasbro line, the only ones I never saw in a store were Taker #2, Bam Bam, Luger, and 123 Kid.

Same here, not just distribution, but case breakdowns seemed very odd. Does anyone else remember seeing pegs loaded w/Scott Steiner around KBs for 2 years after they were released? Why would they have made so many of him? Because who's buying one Steiner and not the other? Series One tag teams were horrible too. Rockers and Bushwackers clogging stores for years, but almost no Demolition to find ever. And that backlog is pretty much the reason LOD and Nastys really never showed up much and maybe the reason they discontinued 2 packs altogether after that. Stores also had Samu and Bushwhacker Butch up until early 1996 along with Scott Steiner. Definitely very strange. They also had the purple Razor and black pants Michaels until then. TRU was the store I saw them all at. I can echo the Samu overpacking. I had 2 Samus for the longest time and no Fatu because Fatu just wasn't around. My brother ended up bringing me a Fatu from the next state over, about a year later |

I never saw the red cards in stores either. My grandmother bought me the whole set from somewhere, probably TRU and I never did see them in stores at all. I think I wound up getting the Nasty Boys from a random "toy liquidators" over the Maryland Bay Bridge in 1992 but never saw them in the main stores.
