Ive so far found umaga, warrior twice, and titus at different targets on different days. They are trickling in 1 or 2 at a time at one target i was told they were getting 1 figure on Wednesday and sure enough I went and there was 1 lonely titus. What area are you in? Miami, FL |

One of the Targets near me that's most convenient still has four Wrestlemania Matt Hardys, and since it's the same DPCI (or whatever it is) in the system as the Rumble figures, an employee told me they probably won't get any Rumble figures till those Hardys sell (which they won't do).
The other Target near me has one Matt Hardy, but they still haven't received any Rumble figures, either.
Resellers dream, this line.

The local stores around here never received Survivor Series. Since then all we got was one Ricochet from Elite 80 so we will probably never get these in with how the way things go. It is always ridiculous how the stores have so much trouble getting their own exclusive product and or if if they they do they do they only one or two cases so nobody really has a chance to get it. Someone in the Target company needs to make sure it easier for us to is to get what we need.

That's a good idea and probably my best bet. I wonder how long it would take for them to get new figures after the four Matts are gone...? |

All I can say is that I hope this ends up like the last Network Spotlight series. That series was nowhere to be found around me, and then case after case started showing up months after everyone else had found them.
It's ridiculous for mass market retail figures to be this difficult to find.

But it could also be like last year's Royal Rumblet set. I saw them at one Target -- once -- then never again. Whereas, like you said, the Network Spotlights just sit and sit...

Last year's set was also pretty hard to track down unless u justed wanted Lita. For whatever reason it seems the rumble set is made in lower numbers than some others.

That's why I hope it's like NS and they show up eventually lol I had the same experience last year - I saw a fresh case last year, which was the only time I saw Rock, Macho, or Lashley. I saw a Lita floating around once or twice, but overall it seems like production was way down. If stores aren't even getting in full cases, or even a full set...this is an absolute joke. |

Finally found a lone Umaga Royal Rumble Elite today, picked him up as he was probably the one I wanted the most from the wave. So I'm happy, but hopefully can find the others as well.

Saw something today that made me think lots of stores may never see these rumble elites. A fresh case of Elite 77 on the pegs. Dont those have the same dpci as the Rumble set? If so that will throw off distribution of these for sure and it may be a while till they show up in some places.

They scanned him and said they had 10 in the back... they came back out with several E77 figs. |

Still nothing at my local Target, but there is a peg for them - so maybe that’s good news. Although, if it’s like last year, these won’t show up until randomly months later.

I just started finding legend series 8 warrior & eddie last week. Wish mattel had a direct website to pre-order stuff. |

My Walmart got them way back in August and again they received multiple cases at the end of November for the Christmas rush. Why do they make so many of that series and so few of a series like the Royal Rumble figures? I get the whole store exclusive thing, but good grief, give us a chance. |

I found one Austin and bought it. I was kind of on the fence about him with the Ultimate due out soon, but this one’s card was trashed so on a whim I bought it to open.
