What a mess. I went to try price matching the AEW figures and apparently none of the assortment was on sale. Nothing can be done in store so I have to contact higher ups now. While speaking to the manager, she said that there is an issue with the supplier and she showed me that nothing can be ordered. The only ones showing in the app they use for inventory was series 1, which included Brandi as well as listings for the chase figures. I saw a "RARE CODY" listed lol. Oooh I guess that means the variants can be ordered individually? Wow. I wonder if that supplier issue could potentially be Jazwares cutting off supply. As Jeremy said on Twitter that series 1 would be reissued with correct skin tones and shipped alongside series 2, that could be one reason the well ran dry. I have yet to even see a store carrying AEW figures around me, and all the stores that did carry them saw their stock swooped up and scalped locally online. Shame, but I'm not paying inflated prices just to line some cheap SOB's pockets.

Shame, but I'm not paying inflated prices just to line some cheap SOB's pockets. From what Ive read on the AEW board it seems like they had to change factories so that may be why they can't order more now. Which leads me to believe the last restock is the last we'll see of series 1 until the re-release comes out. Also Jeremy said series 2 will be harder to get than series 1 so I'm not expecting to see them here.

Went to TRU today, only saw E77 AJ and a bunch of E75 Seth Rollins.
As for the AEW figs, I'm not even going to bother looking for them since it appears stores aren't getting them and if they do they'll be gone as soon as they're put on the pegs.

I went today to get a partial refund using my receipt, and they made a big stink about it. First they claimed that they weren't on sale, and then when I showed them the flyer, they insisted I had to go to the original Walmart I purchased them at to get my refund, since they didn't sell them there. Eventually they gave in, but it was a real pain in the ass.

Then they lectured me on how it said "assorted figures" on the flyer and whatever is showing on the flyer are the only ones on sale... I tried many times explaining there was no way there could be assorted figures on sale for AEW figures since that was the first and only set they ever carried. I explained to them that I literally bought all the stock they had but they still insisted that maybe there were some that are on sale that I haven't found yet LOL 😂 They even showed me the entire AEW assortment listed on their database and none were on sale. Anyways I contacted "higher-ups" thru email so we'll see how that goes...

I told them those were older stock photos from a series that was like a year old. They said it was fine after that.

Ya I told them there was no way they can include everyone in the flyer but they didn't budge and said it needs to match the item #

Don't quote me on this because I don't know this at all but my educated guess says Channel Control or Treasure Hunter (or the BC equivilent). Now if anyone could use this info to hook me up that would be great. lol

The TRU site can be very glitchy inventory wise too. I've had so many times something shows up as "In stock" but then you can't add it to your cart, or a couple times where I've managed to add it and purchase it but then get refunded because they didn't really have it. (Bob Backlund, and I forget the other recent one I ran into that problem with).

Every time I read they are back I jump straight to the site only to realize I can't find them. Trying to get Warrior for a friend. Feel like I'm cursed, can't seem to find anything new. Finally found a second NXT Ruby Riott this month. Oh, 2020.

Yeah they pulled that crap with me and a Sonya they cancelled yet the figure stayed up instock on their site for 2 months after that. I finally found it in stores.
