My Walmart STILL doesn't have a single AEW figure out on a shelf. They've had the belts and rings since August 1st but them mofos still don't have the figures out. They've been "in the back" according to an employee since late July.

Yeah. I feel ya. Belts and rings out the wazoo, but of the 3 Walmarts in my town, there have been 2 6-figure cases total. I can be patient.

Same here. I know they have never been at my local Wal-Mart, as the folks I know there that work toys have just flat said they haven't received any yet. They have the stickers for them up by the WWE figures, and they have received the rings and belts multiple times.
As far as other Wal-Marts I travel to, I have never once seen an AEW figure, but I have no idea if they have never received them, or if they got them in and sold out. No matter what, in my Tri State area, no AEW figures for me.
Thats why I pre ordered Wave 2 immediately, and will continue to pre order from RSC. For just a few bucks more they are guaranteed to be delivered to my door, and I don't have to go out searching for them.

Three Walmarts in my town and haven't seen a one. Though I have seen empty cases on the overstock shelf.
99.9% of the time I never see WWE Elites either though. So I'm not shocked.

Some Walmart’s will have them . Some won’t . It’s the circle of life. Suck it up buttercup.

Chances are at some point figures were put out and bought up right away. Mine has gotten a few cases and only lasted a few hours on shelf.

They gave the shelf space to Jazwares UFC One of my Walmarts moved UFC to the Lego aisle. Not joking, they were hanging on empty wrestling pegs for about a week then they moved them. I think they only sold the McGregor figures. Walmart is such a weird store. |

I have never seen a single AEW figure at Wal-Mart. Saw the belt once, but nothing else. Also just to show you how bad Wal-Mart is in my area, they haven't stocked a WWE Elite since series 64. They've never had a single WWE MOTU figure, MOTU origins figure, G.I. Joe Classified or Retro, or pretty much anything you would want to buy. They usually don't have any Star Wars either. But they have tons of something called Showdown Beasts. It's like it says Wal-mart, but you feel like you are at a dollar store or something like that based on what product they carry.

Walmart is such a weird store. So Jazwares UFC is outselling Lego now? It probably has more to do with those UFC figures being in scale with Legos  |

This describes every Walmart Ive been in the last 2 years. It's not just Walmart, at least in my area. Targets have had a few ML figures, the same couple of warmers from the Black series, and I've literally never seen a GI Joe Classified in stock. Not to mention skipping a couple of entire Lightning Collection waves. Meanwhile the NECA section is stocked to the ceiling to the point that they now have the figures displayed in three different departments. They've at least been pretty good on WWE lately, but I think the issues have a lot to do with the way the box stores handle ordering/supply chains. It's really frustrating, though. |

It would be nice if they would ever have them in stock online. I’ve seen nothing where I live and haven’t heard of anyone else finding them. It’s just another bummer in a year full of them.

We have five large scale retail stores in my town that sells figures, that includes several Walmarts, and none of them ever have anything. I got bored one day (before the pandemic of course) and went to every store in town looking for stuff. Didn't find one Elite figure, period, at all five stores. And this seems to be always. Every once in a while you might get lucky and find one thing, or a peg full of AJ Styles. Pretty sure my Walmart never got in any exclusives I wanted. |
