Saw the AEW figure number jump up and went to my local Walmart. Employee confirmed there was six in stock on the system, yet none on the shelves and looked in the back and “couldn’t find them.” Incredibly frustrating! Yup. Mine didnt even bother checking the bk... I’ve already lost hope for Walmart. Let’s hope we see them at TRU at some point. |

I saw the numbers jump for multiple stores yesterday and today and now most say only 0 to 3 left. One of the stores still says 6 even though I know someone who was there this morning so either they are in the back somewhere or stolen.

I went to check one showing a few remaining and they were all gone. You gotta get there as they put them out or you are outta luck

If that's true it wouldn't surprise me if they start showing up on Kijiji for $60 each. |

The day they went out I scooted over on my 9:30am break and they were all there. Grabbed omega,, was just cool to finally see them all in person. Now , There is a small part of me That wishes I Would of bought them all that morning, because when I went back after work at 5pm the rest were all gone, I went to check one showing a few remaining and they were all gone. You gotta get there as they put them out or you are outta luck |

Here’s a hint. That site doesn’t update real time.
It could take hours.

All I know about that site is that it's said my store has 12 elites "available" since May or so, and my store hasn't stocked any elites since well before that. I wouldn't trust it at all, but then again, that's just one person's experience.

It's just like anything else though it's not foolproof and usually has to do with the stores stocking or system error. |

That's probably the reason they haven't been re ordering. Typically a store won't order more unless the system says 5 or less. I would show the manager the site next time that way they can change it manually. Especially if you tell them how long it's been. |

I've asked the manager about it twice and both times he basically just gave arbitrary dates he seemingly made up then and there. Both times he looked the items up and said they're "on the truck, which gets here ____". The action figure section of my Walmart is the same Star Wars, DC and Marvel figures it's had for months. We didn't get the retro Spiderman series. The wrestling section is a shelf stuffed with unsold battlepacks, a row of the Wrekkin' figures and then a wall of empty pegs and shelves where the basics, MOTU, Elites and AEW figures are supposed to be. Tags are still up and the planogram sheet from the summer is still up, signed "done Aug 9 2020" in sharpie. It's been like that since May, but the lack of stock has been since December. I don't even check it anymore. They seemingly only stock Hot Wheels and Polly Pockets. |

Normally I wouldn't bother but after dealing with someone like that it would piss me off. |

I have an eye on something and there says there was 64 of the item in one local store. They scanned the wrong item into stock. Another store says 4 but no stock on the floor. |

That's why they have to change it manually to 0. The fact that his store has had nothing for months means they don't care. Their system will order more stock automatically below 3 or 4 I believe so if the shelves are always empty there's obviously an issue somewhere. |

Northmen changed his site name to NMCToys and interestingly enough has the Mr.T SDCC up for purchase and if you spend $100 can get $10 off.

Got the new Legends series at my TRU, only grabbed Jake and Eddie. Only 2 I wanted. Seems the rest were all grabbed up as well.
