I went to 5 Walmart’s yesterday where all I found were JBL and Edge from series 5. I was only looking for Torrie and could not find her at all. Everything else at these Walmarts was a sea of Otis, Braun Strowman, and Candice LeRae Elite series 87.
Today I go to two different Walmarts literally 10 min away from the last one I went to yesterday and both had the Summerslam endcap with ONLY either Elite series 99 or Elite series 101 and then only Ruthless Aggression series 3. I finally got Shelton and a Boogeyman. I’m debating going back for a Nash though considering how I’ve never seen him before.

JCFI do not know what universe you live in. For the rest of us, series 1 made it to stores i bought brock lesnar. Series 2-5 have showed up nowhere in western wisconsin. More than likely series 6 will be the same. Compound that will all these online orderes getting mass cancelled. This is the worst distributed line of all time. Same scenario here in Phoenix. Walmart cancelled my nash and I never saw him locally. |

Located Eric Bischoff yesterday. Last one left to grab is Shelton Benjamin and then I don't have to worry about this series again until Miz and MVP start hitting stores. I'm pretty happy though. The last two days I've grabbed JBL, Torrie Wilson, Eric Bischoff from Ruthless Aggression and The Undertaker, Harley Race and DDP from greatest hits. All figures I was starting to get worried I wouldn't see.

Found RA4 (and the Summerslam shipper) in TX. Interesting note: zero Summerslam Dolphs on an untouched shipper.

That's something they need to work on. Hard enough to build the figure, but when the whole set isn't even shipping together it's even more frustrating... Made it to one Walmart in Delaware tonight & nothing new, no shippers or anything. Which is okay, I got my Bischoff last week, anything else I find at this point is a bonus. They did have a pallet on the floor & I spotted the Ultimate Eddie Guerrero case..... which I don't want, so I'm good. |

Went to the smallest of the Walmarts around me here in Maine and actually found some. No shipper, but I was able to snag Austin and Undertaker.

Series 2 was in the WM display, we had it here in EC and I am pretty sure Menominee had it too. Series 3 also hit, but only in that side-kick that Walmarts got. If ound it at one of my two stores and got all 3 figs. Series 4 and 5 just started hitting in the last few weeks, so I am expecting to see the within the next week in our area. 5 walmarts in my area, none have gotten anything past series 1. So you are luckier than me. It’s not just you. I saw Series 1 once - Only Batista & Brock and it was months after someone initially found them. Never saw Series 2 in stores Never saw Series 3 in stores Have yet to see Series 4, 5, or 6 in stores. The Walmarts around me are the pits. |

Is the Walmart app in stock reliable for the RA line? So far it says not available in my area which is consistent with my store search.

Found my first shipper last night on the way home from work. It was still pretty full, but void of almost anything I wanted.
I did get Jey Uso, which was the only SummerSlam figure to be found in the entire store.

Barron’s cover article this weekend is about Walmart and their top retail stock pick. They talk about how great they leverage technology and their supply chain. Apparently the author never reads this message board and what a train wreck they are to fulfill RA exclusive figures!

As long as Mattel is making money, they’re not going to care. That’s not a knock on them, just why would they? The stock is getting out to stores, it’s just being distributed atrociously. Walmart makes Mattel money. Mattel isnt going to ruffle feathers or pull back exclusive lines just because the consumer is unhappy. |

I mean, probably not, because in the grand scheme of retail, niche segments of the top department are a drop in the bucket relative to an organization's overall success. |

Got Edge from Paul. Now I just need to find JBL and im set for RA until UE RVD. Got Edge shipped and delivered in two days from ordering. Don’t understand why a certain major un-named retailer can’t offer a similar degree of service in today’s world. Lol |

Same with Elite 94 Stephanie McMahon and Nash Carter. Maybe they will put them on clearance in 2 or 3 years. |
