So frustrating, practically the entire month of September and into October we’ve gotten no new product on the shelves. Other than wave 4 MOTWWEU which I think I snagged in late August/early September, everything has been dry. I swear security knows me at the three Walmart’s I go to twice a week lol. We were spoiled in the summer. How often do we get that much new product in a short amount of time. From probably June until now we've gotten E75, e76, e77, Legends 8 not to mention MOTU, basics and battle packs. Get ready to get back to normal of every few months. Well hats off to those lucky bastards that found E75 and 76. Now you can find 75 on TRU's website but as far Walmarts went both were scarce as far as I can tell. It felt like 75 didn't even show up and 76 barely showed up.

I saw 76 a lot but I never saw chase Christian or Braun. Eventually all I saw was Cena everywhere and that was it. I've seen 75 once, and one of those times was very recently.

Funny enough I wanted the regular version. Where I am the chase was apparently easy to find in stores

Picked up E5 Mark Henry and E37 John Cena both loose today for $20 each. Both are complete and in great shape.
Still hunting for Legends 8 with no luck.

I didn't see either line on any online retailer in Canada once again until E75 showed up on TRU's website. I personally don't like getting stuff online because I've gotten beat to crap boxes from Walmart, TRU and Amazon so often that I expect them to show up that way. I don't look at it as not getting what I want I just see it as part of the game. My life isn't going to be any less fulfilled without Mandy and Lacey. Just would have been nice if someone could have done their job properly so they could make a few extra sales and I could have my ladies.

For the most part out sites are useless so I found American alternatives. For the little extra I may pay I get the stuff delivered to my door and it's worth avavoiding the headache of tracking down that one case a week we get on shelves here.

Has anyone requested to change their shipping option with Ringside? I have Unriavled s2 pre-ordered for a couple months now and chose the fedex saver option. I’d much rather do Ground as it’s much quicker 😂 I know there’s a chance with duties, but surprisingly I didn’t get hit with them from my last purchases (at least not yet).

My cheapness wins out (or loses out) in this case lol. I've actually been going back and forth on buying Ultimates from Amazon.com just because they cost around $7 more each. lol

In the end for me it's worth it to pay a few dollars more a figure. As long as you order at least 3 at a time it's usually worth it.

Got aew series 1 from a scalper on fb. Very impressed with the quality. Dont like the clicky joints ala marvel legends. Guessing i can heat them up and cut down the ripples if i wanted to aside from the shoulders. I also wish their legs were able to go forward in a straight manner a little bit more like mattel. That and the leg joints should be painted to match the tights instead of skintone.

Elite Riddle on amazon. Hopefully this means we get the set at retail as well.

Here's my perpetually empty Walmart. Notice the piece of paper fallen down, it's a new planogram signed that it was completed yesterday. Hope they didn't hurt themselves rearranging all that stock. Haven't seen an elite there since May, and that was old Top Picks 2018 Styles. Prior to that it was E73 just after Christmas. Only two cases and never restocked. Both times I asked the manager about new stock he told me "Monday" regardless of when it was I asked. Next time I check I'm bringing a Sharpie to write "stock your shelves" on the back of their planogram. That'll help right?

Another stock jump on MOTU Origins. Got there hours later and they were gone again. Three times in 2 months. People keep saying they are coming en mass but "we will see" as my dad used to used to say... or still does hell I don't see him that often. Bought Lana instead. I collect most women and don't own a Lana. On another note I usually only post my wrestling finds in here but I always enjoy hearing about any recent purchases or wants of people in here so here's a pic of some graphic novels I've been finding at the Dollarama for $4 each. I've probably bought over a dozen in the last couple weeks.

Has anyone been able to grab the Legends 8 figures for themselves yet? I know lots of other people have found them in order to screw over other collectors and make a profit.
