My Walmarts getting ready for a reset and I’ve noticed that unmatched/unrivaled figures are up to $23.97 now which has me wondering if the Britt baker and Nyla roses’s will ever sell, on a positive note they did have spots on the sheet for the exclusive hangman and cm punk

They don’t even have stock near me ever lmao. Target way more consistent than Walmart
Only figures I’m picking up at Walmart will be chases and exclusives

Yikes. That's a really, really hard sell at that price. And it feels like recent waves have included less and less in terms of accessories. Being priced the same as or more than WWE is going to really kill momentum for the line.

I barely check Walmarts for figures, I mostly look in Targets

My local Walmarts, who have plenty of AEW figures that haven’t moved for months, went from $19.97 to $21.97
That’ll move them for sure!
So much for all that “desirable talent”

Momentum for this line has completely died around me. Nyla, FTR, Dark Order, and Riho have killed this line at retail.

So much for all that “desirable talent” there have been at least 4-5 Nyla rose and Britt bakers at my local Walmart and with this $4 price increase i feel like they’ll be there a year from now.

I can't remember the last time I've bought a AEW fig at Wal-Mart (probably the Sting exclusive),so this most likely won't effect me that much but like others have said they keep a lot of leftovers for a while anyways so I don't see this going to well

I got Unmatched 1 on clearance for $5.88 each at the start of summer, but Unrivaled havent gone on clearance. Kaz, Santana, and Riho are clogging pegs here. If the prices go up, they'd best clearance first.

One thing I have noticed is they have clearances for Sting & Cody. How can you clearance something that you haven’t had in stock for quite a while?

Because the Sting and Cody figures were special items that will have their shelf space given to the Punk and Hangman exc. figures that will be out soon. Its harder to clearance the mainline figures as they will get more of them in and most of the time they have the same number in the system and they don't want to sell new product at clearance prices.

I went into a Walmart last week and was going to grab the John Silver and Anna Jay figures until I noticed the price increase. I'll be cutting way back if they go up everywhere. For now, I'll just be checking Target for them unless they're must buys. But with the price increase happening I'll be needing less and less for now and I definitely won't be buying different versions of the wrestlers I already have. Lame.

I don't think I've seen an AEW figure at a Walmart since Unrivaled Series 2.
But I find just about every set at Target or Gamestop.

With how many peg warmers are here they’ll never sale. I just for that price I’ll stick with ringside.

Local Walmart is stuck with Frankie Kazarians and Jungle Boys. I doubt they'll move now, which is really disappointing. Been hoping they'd stock new waves for months now but this price increase isn't going to help matters.

That is the not the point. Why bother putting up a tag that shows clearancing something if you haven’t had any in stock for at least two months unless they plan on getting more in sometime soon. When Wal-Mart does "in-line" clearance, or marks items down without purging them from the aisle and moving them into the specified clearance aisle, then it's usually a soft-reset that's being done ahead of the full reset that's coming up. Retail at the corporate level for any organization is patently stupid, and so these sort of things are almost always a matter of compliance - a new reset layout comes down with a pre-printed set of tags, and you just put them out to maintain store compliance. It's similar to doing a full reset, where the new plan may call for product that hasn't yet arrived, with the only difference being that those products usually will arrive. Bold faced text is for emphasis on what the only real takeaway here should be.

Most of my Wal-Mart's are filled with SCU and Jungle Boy. I have 3 Wal-Mart's that I don't think have gotten unrivaled since that set. For unmatched it seems a mix of series 2 and 3 as it's Santana and Ortiz at most of them and then a few Dark Order and Tay Conti mixed in with them.
