Is this line just sitting in other people's walmarts? Mine has had dibiase, Taker, shango, warrior for months and they aren't moving. I'm wondering how they plan to make it to multiple planned waves. My stores had a manageable amount of inventory on those figures until the WM shippers showed up. Now they way too many.

Pls doink and 97 singlet kane Kane is great for this line, but I'm honestly hoping for what could be seen as kind of a random one. I really really want Kane from his initial unmasking. 2003 attire with a removable mask and maybe the black towel.

I like that they aren't impossible to find, but I'm also afraid that the line will get canceled if they sit too long. A walmart near me just last week added 2 more cases each of Undertaker and Warrior. I feel like Macho Man and The Rock will be even worse.

There’s a lot of Warriors and Takers at all my Walmarts , but honestly it seems like there’s always the same action figures sitting in every single action figure line at Walmart . I go to Walmart a few times a week . So it’s not like it’s specific to WWE figures .

I go to Walmart a few times a week . So it’s not like it’s specific to WWE figures . I'm still baffled by the fact that Walmart cancelled my preorders on both figures while they had pegs full of them at the Walmart half a mile from me. It's not really a complaint as I was able to get the figures the same day my orders were cancelled, but it's just so absurd, bush-league honestly for a billion dollar corporation. You have the product, fulfill the orders. Incomputable logic like that is a major pet peeve of mine in general.

Can you tell us what’s under Mr Perfect’s Superstars singlet? Is it his debut WWF / AWA trunks? WWF debut trunks!

Dang, I was kind of hoping for another painted-on singlet underneath, maybe the orange or yellow one.

Just opened my Papa Shango, the only one I have from the line. Disappointed in how damn hard it is to get him to stand up. Are they all this difficult to stand? Also, what was the point of TWO extra sets of hands? Just to charge us more? I almost threw the packaging away without even finding them because the way they are packaged is kinda weird.

This line is sitting in all the Walmarts I go to. If warrior and taker aren’t moving I’m concerned typhoon will sit there forever.

Its because Warrior and Taker were shipped individually in their own case. If stores are ordering multiple cases then that’s gonna be way too many. Hopefully the strategy of packing the anchors in back to back series works out.

They can "swim" a little bit for lack of a better term. They are a little loose and can get knocked off balance easily, my Nash likes to lean back as far as he possibly can. I find that most stand and pose really nicely on figure stands.

I was thinking, now that there's a fat body buck, do you think we could get Yokozuna in this line? Hear me out...
If you look at Yoko's Elites, his upper body is about the same size as the fat buck they use for Rikishi, Dusty, etc. So he's covered there.
Could they put a soft goods fat suit over the lower body to make him thicker? Maybe have his Kokina tights underneath? If the budget allows, he could get a robe too. I feel like that's something that would either look amazing or atrocious, no in-between.

I'm guessing we get another round of delay emails this week? My Mr. T is supposed to be here by tomorrow. The Rock, Savage & Typoon are supposed to be here by Thursday. However, neither order is "preparing" yet.

Hopefully the strategy of packing the anchors in back to back series works out. Personally, I think the anchors are always going to sit for a long time. Warrior and Undertaker were (imo) 2 of the best figures in this line so far. When they were first released they were exceptionally hard to find until Walmarts started getting several cases at once. Now they can't get rid of them, and some stores are still getting cases of them both. If the line continues this way then almost all of the figures will warm hard for months, especially the anchors like Macho Man and Hogan. My only concern is that Walmart will decide to cancel the line because "it's not selling too well".

starting to feel like this is where the line falls apart at retail. Now going on 6 months since series 3 came out at walmart. Maybe they are planning to bring Quake, Rude, Rock, Savage, Mr T and Typhoon out all at once with Hogan and Piper right behind

Love the fact that so many of these are 2 in 1
It’s such a well done line, I’d be all in on these
