Anyone else having a hard time with this? Was this a one and done wave for Target, or was my Target just unlucky?
My local Target got in Legends 9 the beginning of April, got one case and do not seem to have replenished. I was lucky enough to get the set, minus the Ted Dibiase but they did have a Variant Ted on a somewhat beat up card, so I got that. Was hoping to get a regular version to open. My Target had numerous cases on Legends 7 and 8, but not with 9. They did have a lone Vader the other day, so that has come through, but it certainly seems like 9 is done.
Is this what you have seen at your Targets?

My main target never got legends 9. The other 5 in my area got 1 restock after the first shipment and never seen them again. I hunted the chase mdm like hell and nothing.

I never saw them in my area of Florida one time. There are 4 Targets I check regularly, and 1 I checked every day for 5-6 weeks as it’s on my way home from work. Based on the Florida Reports Forum, nobody else in the state has seen them either. If you look at posts from the Norheast, they’re all over the place, Undertakers, Volkoffs, and Tatankas for days. Would love to see a case of them just ONE time.

DiBiase, especially the chase, is the only one I’m not seeing anywhere. Only seen black and gold suit a couple times, never silver and purple.

Never saw it. Seen plenty of series 1(still see Heenans…) Saw plenty of series 2 but it came and went. Now I see a few Vader’s at each spot.

I don’t have the convenience of dropping into a Target at any given time, the closest one to me is an hour & a half away so it’s basically a special weekend day trip kinda thing.....I just except my fate & buy the legends I want from eBay while the prices are still semi reasonable....I just paid $38 for Vader but in the end with gas & having to drive so far with no guarantee I’ll find anything it works out I guess....it has too

Same, I have seen each only a handful of times except DiBiase, I have yet to see one DiBiase (regular or chase) on the shelves.

I got super lucky and called Target on a Friday around 10:00 a.m. and they had series 9 on the pegs but they only had three so the employee said he had undertaker tatanka and Ted DiBiase ask him what color was the Ted DiBiase wearing LOL and he said silver I said I'm on my way thanks to that employee.

Targets in my area have plenty of Volkoff on the shelves - probably 3-4 per store. But I've only seen DiBiase twice - regular version both times. And even Taker seems to be pretty rare for being double packed.
Cena and Vader have been hitting for a few weeks now, so seems like S9 may be done. Then again, I've been seeing S7, including a chase Valentine that showed up out of nowhere just yesterday.

Maybe i still have a chance to find it afterall |

The only one I have seen is a single Koloff. The Targets in my area have otherwise skipped to Legends 10.

the chase. I’m tired of it being this hard I second this. Like most of us on here I'm very passionate about this hobby, but with these figures becoming harder and harder to find I am slowly losing interest. I don't have the drive that I used to have, going store to store until I found the figure or the set I was looking for. It was once fun and exciting, now it's just become stressful and frustrating to say the least. I go to stores less and less now because I know what's waiting for me 90% of the time. I guess the proper term would be "burnt out". |

Regular elites I can get pretty easily at stores or through Amazon as long as I check often enough. But DOD2 was ridiculous. I still need Big Show, I have 5 Walmart’s near me and never saw it one time. All but 1 of those stores got DOD1. I only have Kane because of a member here. My gf found a 2nd one for me when she was working at a different branch of her work an hour away. Legends 9 never popped up here. As for chases, I’ve seen a grand total of 2 in my life. Either O’Reilly or Fish, not sure which one it was. And I saw a ton of the Nakamura chase, which is the only one I own. |

I don't remember seeing anyone from DOD2 except for Natalya/Nattie, and I only saw DOD1 once, I picked up the Undertaker figure then. I went back a week later and they were all gone, never saw the set again. I should have added that I have not seen a legends chase figure since King Mabel (E68), since I don't collect current stars I'm not sure if I've seen the regular or chase of them in that time period. Legends 9 has popped up here, but definitely not in the numbers that Legends 7 and 8 did. I have only seen Taker, Volkoff, and Tatanka a handful of times each, I have yet to see DiBiase (regular or chase) on the shelves. |
