I really wish they were because SWPA has had crap on the shelves since before December. Really makes me sad

I'm also in SWPA and feel your pain. There is quite literally nothing for sale in the entire region. I'm pretty sure we aren't going to see Network Spotlight 2.

Target actually does a pretty good job at stocking their exclusive sets. At least for something brand new hitting it should be widely available, once things have to re-stock and deal with leftover inventory possibly holding up more coming it can be an issue just like anything else though. Seemed like every store in my range on Popfindr got Royal Rumble and Network Spotlight this year. Mania elites are starting to hit now too and a lot of them have been getting those as well. I’d rather deal with Target sets instead of Walmart. Will the Decade of Domination even get in stores? We know Survivor Series didn’t.

I had no luck at target for hoc 3 and no royal rumble elites either. Walmart I have found no gorilla, Patterson, briscoe or anvil.
I hate retail. I have no confidence. I believe store employees are against us

Son of a bitch. I'm sick of store exclusives. I really wanted that Valentine but I'll probably have to pay an outrageous amount for it.

I have no absolutely zero luck at Target. 4 targets in my surrounding area literally had nothing, maybe a basic AJ or two. I’ve had better luck at Walmart. It’s crap, because while parts of the country seem to get everything in, places like SWPA and other spots get absolutely nothing.

They did do a pretty good job of stocking and restocking that wave after the initial "is it street dated: yesnoyesnonoyes...no" crap. If the Targets in my area treat Legends 7 like NS1 I'll be a happy camper. Now, if it's like the Rumble set? I'm gonna be sad panda. And I'm gonna take it out on all you huggers.

At this point it’s honestly makes me not even want to collect anymore. At least when I order from ringside I didn’t mind paying a little extra for the piece of mind of knowing I’ll get the set I want.

Only issue I found with the RR figures is that some stores took forever to put them out which likely prevented a re-stock. I noticed just a few that got re-stocks that actually stocked them when they came in.

Agreed, I’ve been looking but haven’t seen one hint of them You didn't miss them. They just aren't there. I travel across the region for work and have hit every single Target and Walmart except for 2 or 3 over the past few weeks. We're talking 5 different counties. Nothing. Store counts are showing as many as 14 in stock, but the pegs are empty save for an Asuka here or there, and nothing is being put out.

I’m not saying you’re lying, but you’d understand better if you lived in an area like mine and shelves haven’t been stocked in 3+ months.

I see plenty of empty shelves too, especially when it comes to the main line elites. It’s unfortunate that your area has not been stocking the new lines at Target. I’m in eastern PA, so it’s definitely not a state-wise issue.

I can live with store exclusives for each Elite set, even if I can't find them, but having an entire set as store exclusive is beyond frustrating. Especially something like Legends. Being negative right away sucks, but you know, distribution sucks and gives a lot of us very little hope of finding these.

The legends line will last a few series, then it will go in the infamous “hiatus” because the sells weren’t good enough. Think they would have learned by now.

Crazy decisions but doesnt surprise me. A legend line should be exclusive to ringside and theyd guarantee the sales.
