I have a sneaking suspicion this line is gonna get the axe. At this point, I'd be more surprised if the figures come out than if they don't. They were only lined up for 2 waves & that’s it.

At the very least, I fear they are gonna end up in... well is there an action figure version of "Production Hell?" Not saying that these are quite the level of the Wendi Richter/Naomi/Lita elites that were in true production hell, but it's just a bit worrisome that they were announced the same time as the legends and yet there's no sign of them.
Then again, the fact that we eventually did get the Wendi/Naomi/Lita elites is a measure of hope that eventually they will show up. It's just a waiting game.

September 30 is the day Walmart has for shipping the preorder. It was pushed back from Aug 21(?)

I can’t see these being cancelled. These figures are ready to go. Cardona and Myers have had them direct from Mattel for a few weeks.
Walmart had some debacle with the retro Ghostbuster line over the summer where they had to change the package and in doing that then created some UPC issue that delayed the release, not even getting into people finding them in stores ahead of the preorder, which I know was very upsetting to some around here similarly with the Target Legends.
I think we also had the similar thing with Red Rooster and Target where it was sitting and whether it was Target or Mattel, it took time but got to us eventually.
I have these sets preordered but there is nothing make or break for me that is must have so for me, when they get here, they get here.

But I see these figures having constant delays, if not totally canceled. I think it will be delayed to Oct 30 then so on. Just speculation though. I hope we get an update on these soon and could find these in stores.

I'm kind of new to collecting so I wanted to know, when these are officially available will they be back in stock on Walmart.com again, or will it be in store only?

Reckon the buckles on Kane’s chest will be fixed? I am going to say what we were shown is what we will get as the final product.

I bet this line gets the axe & these figures get put into (slowly) the regular elite line.

I think these will come out at some point. But it wouldn't be the first time we've seen Walmart axe a line or dramatically cut an order when the figures are already produced. The Mean Gene BAF set says hi.
