Has anyone found a Pete in the WM displays at Walmart? I don’t recall seeing it but wasn’t sure if anyone had and I missed it.

He’s a Target Exclusive so I am going to say no.

Yeah, Dunne is only packed in cases shipped to Target, so anyone chasing him down at Wal-Mart is going to be coming up empty on both reward and time.

He’s been found at Walmart. It’s a distribution error but he’s been found there multiple times. I just wasn’t sure if the issue went over to the WM displays or only those early cases of E64.

Are you sure it's not another case of that clown-shoes a couple months back that got one of the sets early via pre-order and then made his way into Wal-Mart to mock up some pictures? Figure collectors spend their free time on weird endeavors, man.

Yeah unless he made several accounts and maintained those for years, only to one day use them all for this purpose, then I say it was an early issue. I’m actually really surprised you guys didn’t know this here. It’s been all over Twitter and Facebook for a few weeks.

Why are you asking then? And how on earth did Mattel ship Target stuff to Walmart? And how could it make its way on to a Walmart stock system? Im going to say whoever told you this is a liar

I’m actually really surprised you guys didn’t know this here. It’s been all over Twitter and Facebook for a few weeks. I'm not saying it was him, specifically. I just think that, between "Target stock being inadvertently shipped, entered, and faced at Wal-Mart" and "guy(s) stages a 'distribution error' at Wal-Mart to mess with a collector-base already chasing down a hotly sought after product", I'd be more inclined to believe the latter.

Im going to say whoever told you this is a liar I am not asking if he was found at Walmart as I’ve seen so many pics of him at Walmart that I know he has been. No, what I’m asking is if anyone saw him in the Wrestlemania displays. Which you guys didn’t even know he had shown up at Walmart so I’m going to say you have no idea.

Is the UPC different for Walmart stock and Target stock? Also does each figure have a unique UPC for it?

Mattel shipped Walmart cases containing Backlund to WWE Shop so there is already a history of distribution errors.

I saw a board game on the shelf at Walmart the other day that had the "Only at Target" sticker on it, so it's certainly possible.
I tend to doubt they'd make it onto the shipper though.

Well, one would think if Dunne is a Target Exclusive Walmart wouldn’t have his UPC active in their system. And if scanned would say “Item Not in File ask associate for assistance”

The first was sending the Rockers to Mattel Shop instead of Matty Collector and Backlund to Shop WWE.
