On the subject of TRU placing limits on figures and keeping figures at customer service, I noticed the TRU in Vancouver just recently started doing it. For the AEW figures, they were at the front checkout and there was a sign that said "1 piece per individual"  |

Looks like I gotta bring 5 friends with me if I want to complete a set  But ya they should just limit it to 1 character and 1 set per customer... I hope TRU gets series 3 so I can finally get my hands on OC lol |

My TRU had the same rule when it came to the AEW figures. I hope they don't extend that rule to WWE figures, because I'm often buying more than 2 at a time (and not to scalp). Perhaps if they just ordered more cases, they wouldn't need such a rule (and scalping wouldn't be possible).

I think it's great -- although they should allow 1 character each.

Wouldn't you rather go into a store though and find a few -- than go in, and scalpers wiped the whole thing clean and there is nothing? I definitely would...

No, I'd prefer to go into a store and buy one of each like I've been doing since 2010 when the line started. I can't stop scalpers but I can refuse to pay their ridiculous prices. And if people want to buy more than one for their own personal collection, so be it. To the victor go the spoils. If someone finds something first and chooses to buy multiple of something or whatever they have that right. It's been that way forever, not just for WWE figures but for everything. |

To each their own; some people don't have the time to shop endlessly till they find something the scalpers haven't ripped clean. So I'm in favor of anything to stop scalpers.

Some elite 80 figures on walmart website.
Ricochet, Bayley and Kevin Owens. Except for Bayley they have a picture of Sonya Deville and for Ricochet they have a picture of Gerald Brisco.

Anyone seen Legends 9 anywhere around? We were lucky to get legends 8 but I’m not sure if the line will continue in Canada or if legends 8 was a one off.
I’m debating ordering them from the US but don’t want to pay the premium if we could get them here. What does everyone think the likelyhood is we’ll see them?
