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. im from western New York and like you every store still have none according to brickseek, there is no excuse for there to be no elites for as long as it’s been. What number are you using on Brickseek? Because the individual numbers will never work and the core Elite SKU has been discontinued in their (WalMarts) system. There should be a new sku to go with the newest reset.

I think most of the northeast still hasn't even gotten series 68 in stock yet. Nothing here in CT.

Never. Never feed the scalpers. I want Patterson but if I 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. Everyone in the area got a case over a week ago but if took em forever to stock due to resets.

I scored a Pat Patterson on Ebay for 38.00 shipped which is a good enough price for me to get him at. No torture of going into the cesspool known as Wal-Mart and their consistently empty shelves.

What’s the new number, because I haven’t seen it yet? The number that I used to see E68 series is (UPC 88796174171, SKU 589043017), it doesn't show individual figures from the set, it shows the entire set. For example, when they first hit stores here, it showed 8 in stock, that 8 represented the entire set: 2 Reigns, 1 Braun, 1 Bryan, 1 Bella, 1 Taker, 1 Mabel, 1 Patterson if your searching at Walmart. I believe for Target it is 3 Reigns, no Patterson, and 1 for everyone else - though they are not populating yet for Target. Also, for Basic Series 98 the UPC is 88796174173 and the SKU is 960486397.

Thanks the last sku I had was the last one 738707427 which has been coming up in WalMarts system as discontinued since May.

I think most of the northeast still hasn't even gotten series 68 in stock yet. Nothing here in CT. Only two of fifteen nearest Walmarts on brickseek were showing any stock. Southington and New Milford both had 8 yesterday, but today they are down to 2 and 6. Maybe more stores will get shipments this week.

That’s funny because using the new number only one store in the NY/NJ/CT area has them in stock and that’s a CT store 30 miles away. (Norwalk). lol

I try not to buy figures on eBay since I don't support scalping.

To people saying don't support/feed the scalpers... for many of us, it's often our only way of getting certain figures (we don't even have Walmart and Target stores in the UK, so there's no chance of ever finding most of these store exclusives). And the "then just do without the figure" argument just seems to be cutting off your nose to spite your face - one person/a few people aren't going to change the scalping market and to be honest, I'd rather pay an inflated price for a figure than do without. I've said before: this is my main hobby, I'm a grown adult and at the end of the day, life's too short... I wanted figures like Sherri, Harley etc. so I paid the going-rate for them on the secondary market - and I'm pleased I did. And I know this won't be a popular opinion, but I'm actually quite thankful to scalpers... if it wasn't for them, I'd have no way of getting certain figures and would probably have stopped collecting. Rant over.

I was at one of those stores yesterday.

I paid $46 shipped & it’ll be here tomorrow. I’m too old to run around store to store.

I found him in New Milford Ct today. The box was on the pallet and snagged him with taker since I already had Mabel. So glad to get him since my drive all the way to Hartford was fruitless.

Never - save that $30/40 for something actually worth buying.

For me it works out cheaper to buy on Ebay. The only spots that carry figures in my area are Targets and Walgreens, some times JC Penney and gamestop will have stuff. For me if I decided to travel and pay a bridge toll, and wasting gas traveling back and forth, the extra I pay on-line is a wash, plus I only fill up my gas tank in my car once a month. It works out to nearly the price I would pay on Ringside after shipping on some of the figures I pre-ordered. I have a set limit on what I will spend over to own a figure.
