yeah I found my 2 this week, one at each of my local Walmarts in north Tampa using brickseek. Each got only 1 case. First store it was in the back, and when the first employee refused to help me and just told me to come back, I went and asked someone coming out of he backroom and he got it for me no problem. The other store it was just on the shelf. You got lucky at one of my Walmarts the guy flat out told yeah we have it but I cant sell it. It was so insulting.

I keep checking Walmart every day and still can't find one It’s a lot easier to check Brickseek every day rather than going to the store every day, unless you’re going there regardless. I don't own a smartphone. I guess I can add the app for my tablet

Went to 3 Walmart’s in East TN yesterday and nothing but Roman and Brie Hmm, which walmarts? Maryville, Chapman Highway, and East Knoxville next to the mall. I may end up resorting to eBay at this point.

Ebay is flooded with them at the moment which will keep the price down from hitting anything like the Harkey Race figure.
If you are going to buy from Ebay then now is the time

Thanks for all of the feedback. eBay is looking a bit better. If you live in Los Angeles, Wal-Mart exclusives are a death sentence.

I agree, especially since we do not know if and when Walmart will get restock cases in. Heck, we still have not seen 1st cases by me yet.

I wish they would just release the Stooges in a BP with suits. That’s all I really want of them 2. The elite attire is kinda cool but it’s a one off match that hardly anyone remembers.

Still no sign of them in upstate New York. I check brickseek daily. I want to wait before going the Ebay route, but I’m worried they’ll go super fast and won’t be restocked.

Agree - my experience with most Walmart employees is that they are reluctant to check the back for anything. I checked last week at my local Walmarts that I knew had them in the back, but they didn't check. Target, however, has always been willing for me.

Found my 2nd one today. Think I may be done hunting but may pick up a 3rd if I see one. If you see 7 on Brickseek, don’t assume someone grabbed Patterson. Went to one today with 7 in stock and the one sold was Mabel.

Went to one today with 7 in stock and the one sold was Mabel. Good advice. The one I went to had two sold and it was strangely enough Braun and Mabel. Patterson was all by his lonesome in the corner of the WWE section with D-Bry. Got super lucky.
Another tip is it takes a while for a sale to go through, since my store had a whole set on Brickseek but had a couple sold already including my Patterson. Just a little extra food for thought but if eBay is the way to go, hold off until there's more coming in and the price drops. Don't be the guy who pays $70 for a figure that can be found for a quarter of that.

Never. Never feed the scalpers. I want Patterson but if I (or a friend) don’t find it at Walmart I just won’t add it to my collection. Found a 3rd one today. Went to grab a Shaggy and Scooby to see how they look with NECA Toony Terrors Jason and Freddy and all of 68 including Patterson were on the shelf so o grabbed it. Don’t need any more. A third! lol my 3 area WalMarts haven’t had an Elite figure since a week after WrestleMania! And that was the set with Sherri.
