Went to TRU today. No change. Unsold Survivor Series HBK, Charlotte. Tons of AEW Joe and Adam Cole. The basic set with Lashley, Kushida, Tamina. A couple of 2-packs. Maybe 4 Hogan multipacks.

Haha sounds like Regina. We got a plethora of Lawlers from the survivor series set too. There was a couple Cora Jades last time I was there if I go to city tomorrow I might pick one up if they still there now that there is a "sale"

I got an email that mattel creations is having a sale and there's some WWE stuff on there. Jake/Rude, Hogan/Funk, Ali set (all marked down to 68 Cdn), a couple of the retro sets and some random figures are on sale.

Went to Walmart on Spar Road in Sydney and they had the new knuckle crushers and a lone Brock figure from elite 108. Also went to Walmart in Sydney River and they had the undertaker from the SummerSlam wave. I'm starting to think that Walmart is getting random figures from mattel and not giving them the whole set. After seeing a random Brock fig.

People think I'm nuts for not shopping for figures online but I'm constantly running into issues.
I ordered two figures from ebay from 2 positive sellers back in May. Neither have arrived nor has the tracking been updated in 10+ days.
Probably going to have to request refunds. It will never not be perplexing how God damn hard it is to buy these things. In store or local secondary market 4 life.

I've been so tuned out from wrestling figures the last couple months and all this talk about the SDCC exclusive on the main board doesn't have me hype at all.
I've got about 20 marketplace ads up here in Vancouver right now trying to sell off elites and basics because for the first time since Mattel took over in 2010 I feel like I'm getting out of the game.
Basically, any purchases that I'll be making going forward will just be FTITL Legends to fill the gaps in my collection. The main roster and NXT haven't been doing it for me for a couple of years now and I barely watch wrestling anymore in general. Sad times.

How did you find these listings?
I did a search for 'WWE' & 'WWE Superstars' and these listings are not coming up?! Also, where is Big Bossman, he is part of this wave as well?
Walmart are truly out to lunch, there is no rhyme or reason to how they operate. They put up listings for series 1-7 months ago yet only series 1, 2 & 5 were available. They skipped series 3, 4, 6, 7 and now it looks like series 8 & 9 have been skipped as well?! This line has been one big train wreck from the start, I don't understand how it hasn't been cancelled?!

Searching with " " quotes seemed to yield better results. e.g. www.walmart.ca/en/search?q=%22wwe+superstars%22&facet=facet_ss_NewArrivals%3ANew+Arrivals

Thanks to the tip from evanrd I drove into the city. Stopped at my TRU and...nothing. Went to the Walmart next door in Bayers Lake and found E109. Grabbed Dom, Nakamura and Cody. Left a Dom, Bayley, Priest and 2 Rollins. Happy hunting!

So the SDCC figure this year is.......an upgrade over something they've released what? Two times prior? I see zero reason to spend the money on this as I already have the original Entrance Greats HBK. Not gonna need extra articulation for something that just stands still on a shelf.
Hope there's people out there that are happy with it though!

Hope there's people out there that are happy with it though! I totally agree. The head sculpts are just re-hashed ones that werent very good to start with, and how many versions of this figure do we really need. tbh I'd rather have Bret's gear from that match that we've never got before.

On one hand I'm fine with re-releases as long as they are improvements. On the other hand I hate ultimate figures.
On the other third hand, I am always up for dumping on Shawn Michaels. They still haven't fixed his boots but hey, they actually gave him kneepads for a change so that's progress.

Who wears it better? Seems Canada has actually been on a roll of getting figures, got the priest with the belt from a buddy, so cool to see Canada actually getting new figs and actually getting series in order at that! Happy hunting guys ,

Lol after driving an hour into the city yesterday to grab a bunch of E109 my local store stocked what looks like 4-5 cases.
Better than never getting stock I guess! Still hoping to find 108 Knight.
