The secondary effect of this pricing mistake on the universal 6 figures in this series is going to have these things warming Target pegs hard. I'll bet it carries over into severe stagnation of E71's arrival, and finding Ohno ends up being even harder than finding Morgan or Deville.

I'll bet it carries over into severe stagnation of E71's arrival, and finding Ohno ends up being even harder than finding Morgan or Deville. I don't think it'll be that big of a deal. Considering the low number of Elites per store already...I can't see the average Target toy shopper passing on a figure because it happened to be cheaper at Walmart for a few weeks.
Many of the people who purchase figures at Target are probably moms anyway. Not a big deal. Don't sweat it. It shouldn't have a far-reaching impact.
If anything, I can see Walmart raising their Elite prices in light of this to make up for the thousands they're losing. Even that, I doubt they would do.

Could just be more E68 in back. My local store went up in stock Friday afternoon and when I checked today it was just more E68 put out. Have a couple stores that also have gone up in the last couple of days that I will check Monday and Tuesday so hopefully we aren't only getting E68 restock in Missouri. We aren't. My Webb City Walmart put out 2 cases of E69. Both had chase Ali. Day before, I was in Tulsa for my daughter's party and picked up the whole wave of E69 there, so I only picked up Ali from Webb City. Finding the girls are Target will be the real struggle! My area seems stuck with lots of E68. My local store is Clinton and it now has 3 cases of E68 out and have went to Nevada, Warnesburg, and Sedalia and all have gotten multiple cases of E68. Hoping I have better luck down at the Lake of the Ozarks area when I have to go down to for work this week or I think I am just going to have to settle for my Amazon preorder.

For those of you who got the $7 Elite y9 figures, do Elites show up on your Brickseek at that price or $15.88?

I just picked up Rey, Miz, and Ricochet last night (8/26) for $7 each. So they definitely haven't fixed it yet.

I've noticed this as well. Over the weekend I bought a Patterson at a store close to home, and the stock on BS dropped from 10 to 9 almost instantly. I just left a store near work. Last night their stock was at 4, they jumped to 28 this morning (4 + three new cases). I bought three from E69...no drop.

I just have no idea what to do anymore because BrickSeek will say they have 20 plus in stock at Walmarts and the other 3 closest Walmarts will say 16, but I go there and there is nothing on the pallets or in the back. I even offered an employee $10 to look in the back and he was back there a good 20 minutes, came back out with nothing, so he grabbed his zebra equivalent (like the little phone scanner Target employees have, but I don't know what they're called at Wal-Mart) and it said on there 0 in Back or 0 in inventory. And he told me it could mean that the figures may be on the way in a truck or actually parked in a truck on the docks. It's just so damn frustrating.

Elite 69 is screwing up the count on Brickseek because it’s ringing up under the wrong SKU.

I got a feeling that brickseek is going to get shutdown for Walmart here soon just like it did with target because everyone keeps showing it to the worker's and management staff it's mainly the people with YouTube channels that's doing it constantly in everyone of the toy hunt videos they post

I managed to snag RIcochet, yellow Ali and Tommasa today for 7 bucks but no sign of Rey or Lashley which sucked and none in the back either.

just posted in "I Just Bought" but I will join in here too. Hit a different Wal-Mart almost every day this week on the hunt for E69 with no luck. Went to one store today that still had a Miz and a Rey on the shelf. While they weren't the top of my wish list, I was super stoked as this is the first set in some time where I want every single figure, the $7 is just making it even sweeter.

Just bought a $7 Lashley. That made he happy. I didn’t need him but a $7 price tag says, “Go on. You saw him live and he did MMA. Pick him up.”

Got lucky last night. Stopped in Wal-Mart in Troy, Alabama and snagged Ciampa, Ricochet, Lashley and yellow Ali for $7 each. They also had Miz and Mysterio, but I didn't get those. Hella pumped about finding them. Gotta cancel my Amazon orders now.

Imagine a time when ther wasn’t a website that could give you the stock numbers at a particular store. Go out and find the figures.

Checked another Wal-Mart this morning. Just saw the same few Braun and Roman from E68 as the last time I went, then I thought I saw a WWE box hiding. Did some poking, someone had hid Ricochet, Ali (chase variant), Miz and two Rocks. I was able to get Ricochet and Ali and cancelled my Amazon pre-orders and Rock. Super happy. I had found Miz with Mysterio yesterday so now I've been able to get everyone but Lashley and Ciampa, as I haven't seen them yet. Expected Ricochet and Ali to be the hardest two to find, so hoping I can get those two while $7 is still working. Great start to the morning before checking out Takeover: Cardiff.
