I can not see how mattel would make the same amount of this series as they did the last two series. Rock, Cena, Undertaker and Kane are all hall of famers. The Fiend and Alexa have a LONGGGGGGG way to go to come close to them. They HAVE to know that they should have made half of what they made the last two series. Or they don't care and like to waste money

I wouldn't be surprised if it ends up being her last WWE figure. Considering how unhappy she reportedly is with her creative and lack of usage, and that WWE releases anyone at any time they want, I wouldn't be shocked if she's gone within the year.
Could be wrong though.

I will absolutely not be paying full price for this figure, but I will probably buy it eventually

I'm planning to get it on sale, but it doesn't surprise me that it seems to be selling decently, at least on par with other figures in the line. The UE line is established now and Alexa is a strong merch seller with a big fanbase. It's also the first figure of her in her most recent gimmick, and pretty necessary for Wyatt/Fiend fans.

i can't believe they didn't pack the doll with her but it makes me think she will get another elite with lilly.

Could be wrong though. The dirt sheets are story lines and too. Mustafa Ali was "unhappy" too.

I think the guys in the big feds know everything is being fed to the dirt sheets, so they're feeding them what they want.
That said, having those therapy sessions and then bopping her right back off TV seems silly.

Both of my local Targets stocked 4 UE Alexa’s each this past Sunday. They are all gone now.
Alexa has a pretty big following and is one of, if not the top women’s merch sellers. I don’t see her peg warming more-so than other popular stars unless Target overstocks on her figure (from what I’ve seen in my area, Charlotte figures have peg warmed way more than Alexa figures).

I got one ordered on Target's site, and it shipped pretty quickly. Then I saw them out in person this past weekend, but since it had already shipped, I couldn't just grab it and cancel the online order. Now I'm still waiting because Target uses the slowest freighter imaginable.

Now its only been a few days since this thread started and just about every figure account I follow on Instagram is posting a shelf full of these at their Targets

I’m passing, but she’s got a solid fan base. I don’t think it will be hard to find, but I also don’t expect to see this on the shelves 6 months from now.

Series 12(?) Bliss and Fiend are easy passes for me. I am not a big enough fan of either to justify spending $30 each on.

My Target had about ten. While I really like the figure I will wait till she goes on clearance.

I like Alexa, but I don't care much for her figures. I think she needed a redesign, new parts, etc. My store had three today.

Hmmmm is it possible?, The Fiend has been replaced by Bliss, so Bliss is a “double run” (AKA Target Tito 2.0).

Found two at Target. I got one. I doubt it'll pegwarm and get heavily discounted like Ronda Rousey and Nakamura ended up being.

This makes me so sad because I really really like this figure. I actually bought two so I could display one of each look.
That said, I do think if they had some way to do this as a regular/chase elite, it would have sold better. I think the fact that it's a 2-in-1 that you have to buy two of to show both figures hurts it at a 30 dollar price point. The issue is that I don't think the attire would have been cost effective as an Elite, even if they made it as 2 figures in regular/chase like the upcoming Mighty Molly Holly figure. The Ultimate figures let them do the kinds of high detail stuff that you usually can't do with Elites and I honestly don't see any other way to get these looks out than this.
Actually, that's probably why we never got and likely never will get demonic Alexa as an Elite. Too hard to make at that price point, especially now.
