I'm just getting into the retro line. I've been doing some research and am trying to figure out why a MOC Reigns is so expensive? $90 on ebay, crazy. Also, what are some other good stores to find these at? I went to my local wal-mart (had nothing) and target (only had an Ambrose and Rollins). Gamestop? Retro game stores? Carry around some good aspirin is my best advice lol. Nothing but headaches and running around. Serious though, I would stick with Target if you are searching stores. Five Below it seems like around Christmas time gets in sets. Target at least makes an attempt to stock them but Walmart, you would think they honestly hate the idea that they have to carry them-even though ironically they started as Walmart exclusives lol.

Limited production run. Only released in 1st waves of series one. Wasn't supposed to be a chase like the Elites but for collectors, especially overseas, seems like it.

Yeah - they're based in the UK though, so the shipping might be expensive if you're in the US/Canada.

Thanks. Just ordered series 2. Even with shipping it was the cheapest I could find.

R&B Hart foundation New age outlaws Acolytes SDCC would be a great time to reboot this line and recommit to quality with a solid lineup and new action features. An updated Bryan, Hollywood Hogan, The Game, and a more modern Taker might get people to sit up and take notice. Or, even try an all female lineup with Becky, Ronda, Charlotte, and Bayley. I will also not be shocked if the line is done.

Some things to think about:
Currently we have a total of 44 Retros (not including running changes, variants, unreleased figures/protos).
At Comic Con I expect to see no less than 8 and hear about 4-8 more.
If we were to have one more series this year, 4 series in 2020, and 4 series in 2021, we would still have fewer Retros than there were Hasbros.
Simple solution? Make more Retros. Buy more Retros!

I'm really hoping to see Jeff Jarrett in the Retro line. Never in a million years would I have thought the stars would have aligned enough that we would have a continuation of the Hasbro line in stores and Jarrett in WWE's good graces, so missing that kind of an opportunity would be borderline unforgivable.

Same with so many other characters such as Hart Foundation. But I am with you. Let Mattel just show what they have and than double it.😄

Love this idea! Making 8 Retros per series (or even 6 like 1 & 2 had). Its also possible that would ultimately solve their distribution problems, too. Stores wouldn't have such a small window in between series' and would be able to have most, if not all series.

Preview night is the 17th so there could be stuff shown then. They might have the next series out it they have prototypes ready, I think that is where series 7 was first shown. I think it will be more likely to see finished basic 100 or elite 70 then new retros.
