That didnt take long, besides a question about the great muta and walmart planograms the last response about the line was in july 2023. He never responded to your question i saw

That didnt take long, besides a question about the great muta and walmart planograms the last response about the line was in july 2023. He never responded to your question i saw As much as I love this line it's probably not going to last much longer. It's just a sub-line, and they have made it quite clear that it's not a priority for them at all. They're probably just waiting for something else to come along and replace it. I'm not judging this line or even Mattel, just being completely honest. I remember how they did away with the WWE-MOTU line even though it seemed to be very popular at the time (although the distribution was awful). I see the same thing happening to this line, and soon. The distribution is just as bad. I don't expect anything less from Walmart though. Don't get me wrong, I love this line and hope it lasts another 2 or 3 years, but the history with these sub-lines would say otherwise. I think it has a ton of potential. If only they would give it to Amazon or even Mattel Creations and Ringside, I think we would all be very happy. Not to mention we could have Ringside Exclusive tag team 2-packs like Dudley Boyz and Steiners, and some really cool single exclusives like CM Punk, Logan Paul, or Cody Rhodes. I think what they did with the Retro line was borderline brilliant. Not only does it keep the line alive, but we're getting some amazing retros that we would have never seen them do for retail. I know they probably won't do that with the Superstars line, but if they did I think we'd all be pretty satisfied. Just my opinion anyway.

Steve recently said that Walmart wanted to keep the line as an exclusive, which is disappointing. As suggested above, I would like to see it handled like the Retros.
And if the line is a Walmart Exclusive, what kind of loophole in the contract allows Mattel to sell cases of the product to a guy to sell on Ebay? And why can't Ringside get in on that?

Finally found a Bulldog in Aurora, CO which was hte last one. They did have multiple Kane's as well. I was hunting back home in Cleveland a few weeks ago and saw Kane's at 3 different Wal-Marts but no Bulldog or Ali. Positive seeing these in different markets which is good

Positive seeing these in different markets which is good That Kane is a solid figure, but it looks almost identical to his MOTU-WWE figure, imo. Seems like the same collectors who were into that line are into the Superstars line, so it almost seems like a re-release. I've found all but Ali so far. Might have to pay the premium for that one.

Imo, the Kane superstars figure is worth the upgrade from the motu because the motu has that stupid claw hand and the superstars is the reverse attire, which I always thought looked awesome.

Oh yeah, the Superstars figure is much better for sure. The entire Superstars line is so much better than the WWE-MOTU line. I liked it a lot, but there was only so much they could do. In the end I felt like they were really reaching to match the wrestlers with MOTU characters, which was my first guess as to why it was canceled. It just doesn't work for long term. Superstars, on the other hand, the possibilities are endless.

I will wait it out till it shows up on mercari. Never have and never will give a dime to paul and his mattel warehouse. If they want to play games with us than fine but im not biting. Let him get stuck with 29.99 figures. That will stop him from reordering. And really 30$ is not a good deal. Just wait for large lots of multiple figures on ebay. You will pick them up for between 5-10 each. Have patience guys Walmart.com will be clearancing out all the hogans soon too.

Yeah, I disagree.$30 isnt bad factoring in the free shipping from CA to NY. Anything more than 1 figure, however, and it becomes very much not worth it.

Yeah $30 plus no sales tax and free shipping isn’t bad. The few dollars more is probably less that what you’d be spending in time and gas hunting for these.

I've bought several things from them over the last 2 years maybe haven't had any issue. I bought a ruthless aggression elites Edge and JBL from him, edge shipped crazy fast and JBL was marked as shipped as well. Edge shows up super quick… A month goes by no JBL. Send Paul an email asking if he had run out of stock, he apologized said my order must have got missed said he’d ship that day…3 more weeks go by no JBL. Ended up finding it in store asked him to cancel my order and a refund and he didn’t refund me lol. Filed a claim got my money, won’t be buying from him again.
