I think it was series 53 anyway. Alexa bliss, sami zayn, and big e smiling back from the pegs. Saw this at a few targets recently. Anyone finding this happening?

I did see an Alexa and Jericho on the pegs at Target the other day. I thought maybe they were returns. I guess not. Weird.

Wasn't that one of the series that was out right around when TRU went under and manufacturers were pulling cases of product? It wouldn't shock me if Target bought the series from wholesale vendor at a discount and is putting it out at full price. The same thing happened when Walmart dumped E41/42 onto Survivor Series shippers a year after the figures released.

Funny, today I saw a E51 berserker & E50 Stephanie at Target and thought maybe they were found in the back somewhere.....

I haven't seen old stores restock anything but there are a few stores I will go to that still have Lord Steven Regal and Tugboat. Recently went to a store and bought the Ultimate Maniacs Macho Man and Narcissist Lex Luger that were still on the shelf.

In the past 2 weeks, I've seen 53 at two different Targets. One Bliss at one, two at another

TRU going out of business in the US really screwed the line up, I wouldn't be surprised if either party walks away in 2021, maybe business will pick up in the summer?(when AEW kicks off)
I've kind of moved on to Hasbro Rangers and DBZ figures, though I still walk by the WWE spot once a week, hoping to find something interesting and it's old, or same old (bleep).

It wouldn't shock me. I remember my Walmart getting in e42 at xmas time a couple years ago and selling them at full price when we we're well into the 50's in the elite series.

It all could just be return's from discount stores that had them previously or possibly hidden/lost stuff from in the backroom and they just found and put em on the shelf which Is highly doubtful but more than mostly likely someone returned them is my guess especially if it's only one or two figures and not the full case

I did the same thing with marvel legend figures. Hasbro is where it's at |

I'm pretty someone returned those for store credit. A while back at Target, I spotted two elite 41 demon Balors and a 123 Kid. I doubt those were in the stock room for 3 years. Someone probably thought they'd be worth a fortune, sat on them for a few years, and eventually just returned them. That's my logic but who knows.

My target randomly had e56 Roman, e54 bray & somebody else from the 50s....I figured they were returns.

One of the Targets I frequent had an E50 Stephanie and an E51 Berzerker recently. I think Berzerker is still there.

After weeks and weeks of empty pegs they restocked this past weekend with what seemed like a fresh case of Wrestlemania 35 Elites. But they were priced at $20. Like they just found a hidden case out back. |

Since you can order both on ebay for under $20 ea then im sure thats what it was. The 123 Kid figure is pretty cool to have, though. If you're a fan of 80s and 90s WWF era. |

You could tell it was a return. Especially since it was the only retro in the store and that series has been discontinued over a year ago. |

Oh great anything to make these store exclusive chase figures harder to find, sadly by the time elite 53 would well top picks 2 will probably be out to warm shelves.

Just saw another load of elite 53 show up at target. Miz, alexa bliss x 4, big e x 3, and kevin Owens. That target probably going to be dead for quite a while. They also had reigns and shower rusev x 3 for nxt.
