Man, I really wish I could find AEW series 1, 2 and 3. I really wanted to start collecting this line too, but it's likely at this point that I'll miss out.

Received my E82 TRU order today and what a nightmare.
TRU shipped my package with CanPar, which has never happened before. CanPar sucks!
I triple checked that I provided the right shipping address and all was good. But for some reason, CanPar did not receive my apartments buzzer code and there was a failed delivery attempt. I had done live chat with TRU and was told that there was nothing they could do (lovely), and that I needed to call CanPar to get the address fixed. Nice to know it's the customers responsibility to fix a company's mistake....
I tried calling CanPar on three separate occasions over the course of two days, tried doing their live chat on three separate occasions and NO ONE ever picked up a call or answered my chat attempts. I must have put in at least three hours total waiting time. Absolutely ridiculous.
I loop back to TRU and tell them what happened, and all they say is "this was the issue of the courier, we can offer you a 10% discount off of a future order". Like wtf?? Your resolution to someone messing up my address is to get me to buy more?
They eventually agreed to refund my current order 10% (woop-dee-doo) and that I still had to contact CanPar on my own time to request redelivery. The TRU agent told me that they started using CanPar to help with order overflow during COVID and that I should contact them directly to file a complaint.
Why do bad things happen to nice people??

That's terrible. I know Walmart gets alot of criticism but Toysrus is just as bad and worse in some ways.

It's funny because walmart.ca sells elites for $29.97. But if you go in the actual store (in Winnipeg at least) the elites are $24.97

With the Wrestlemania line appearing at two different retailers now, I'm sure TRU will get it as well.

Managed to snag a Mr.T and Roddy Piper 2 pack off Walmart.ca before it sold out. Came today, looks neat.

For anyone wondering about the 7-Eleven exclusive Stone Cold Funko, mid-March has been set as the release date. No info if all locations will be receiving it or just particular ones.
Happy hunting!

I've complainined about this everywhere else so I'm going to do it here and I know I'm preaching to the choir but trying to find MOTU Wave 6 has been the most stressful time since I started collecting. I was at my local Walmart on Jan 20 the kid scaned the peg and told me there was no restock date the next night at 10 pm Matt Cardona is instagraming pics saying Wave 6 is out in Canada. I call bs but the next night at 10 pm I see someone in CWF facebook has them so I get up to my Walmart as it opens at 8 am and there are none. So I have been going under the assumption that they never got any which is crap then I find out last night that they were there and gone in the days I didn't know they were out. This is the same Walmart I went into when the previous Wave came out and the woman told me they didn't have any and refused to go in the back. My friend goes there 4 hours later and they only have Rollins left. The lady tells him the rest are gone. And it's not like these are Elites where I could find them on Amazon or ringside or even walmart's website. Now here I am two weeks out and the only place to get them is ebay,kijji or fb marketplace for $10 - $30!?!? over retail if you can find them. I know we all have these stories but this has by far been the most discouraging time since I got back in collecting new figures like 3 years ago. I don't mind putting in the work but it's just been kick in the nuts after kick in the nuts these last two weeks.

I don't mind putting in the work but it's just been kick in the nuts after kick in the nuts these last two weeks. This was something I learned from looking for AEW figures. I went before closing one night as I was told they’d be on shelves. Find an employee who looked and said they weren’t there and it’s all dependent on the truck. The date was showing the next day. Repeat. Same thing. The date moves to the next day because of the truck not getting there. Employees are probably tired of people asking so they simply say there isn’t a date. The second time I went, the girl explained the date will just automatically get bumped to the next day. Trying to find things lately here is tough. I didn’t want to drive across Windsor to look for figures. Twice. Only to find out they were there the next night and didn’t want to chance wasting time.

I didn’t want to drive across Windsor to look for figures. Twice. Only to find out they were there the next night and didn’t want to chance wasting time. Yeah the whole reason I didn't start collecting AEW figures is because it wasn't worth the time, money and stress to take on another line of figures that weren't going to be readily available in stores for a bunch of wrestlers I didn't want figures of. And much like the Mattel stuff (WWE MOTU, Origin etc.) I had at one point commited the money to buying all of them then due to crappy distribution (where the hell is Brandi) they sucked all the fun out of it and missed out on my money. The thing is much like Mattel they truly don't care at all. Not to mention the number of people I see buying up all the figures they see then selling them for $5-$10 above retail (or even at retail). You're not helping anyone you're just taking figures off the pegs so other collectors can't get them. The entire thing is bullcrap.
