Has anyone found elite 100 in stores yet? There were rumors they would be on the wrestlemania shippers but I haven't heard of them hitting stores yet. Any idea? Would be a nice wave to see on pegs.

I just started to see E99 over the weekend.....
So either two months from now - - - or not at all. Would be my guess.
New Elite sets are supposed to come out every two months. I wish that's the way it actually worked.

I see about every 3-4 sets thanks to all those stupid Elite Top Picks that never sell. They come in by 2-3 cases at a time in every retail store...Sit around so no other stock gets put out. Then finally they they clearance everything out and reset the planogram twice a year and if Im lucky Ill get to see something new.

Target is even worse than that at times |

I saw a Brock in the overalls at Walmart the other day. I don’t know what series that is but that is the latest series I have seen since the set with Farooq in it.

You'd figure mattel would be shipping these both to Walmart and target in pdqs or sidekick shippers.

Only place I've seen them other than online was at a toy convention last month. And they didn't have Andre.

its almost non-exsistent. this is why i love RSC so much. and target has also been really good with there exclusives and UE releases. but anywhere else including Amazon has been a complete joke. so far behind, and not worth the hassle searching in store. why i cringe when Walmart gets new exclusives rolling out like UE edddie/rey now. imagine the pain to get those.

I don't know why the hell stores stopped carrying full case assortments. This applies to Mattel and Hasbro.
Elite 95. Saw a couple John Cena's at Walmart last year. Bobby Lashley popped up at Target in January, then like 5 Shotzis were put on the pegs at Target last month. Last weekend saw my first Eddie Guerrero. Never saw the others from the wave.
This makes even less sense with BAF waves that slowly trickle out over months, with some never showing up at all.
I miss the days when you would see the whole wave at once. Maybe one or two figures were much harder to find, but you had certain expectations that were met when you checked the aisles. Who knows what to expect now, there's no rhyme or reason to anything.
They really need to get their act together. I don't like ordering from Ringside because it's damn expensive after markup and shipping. These things cost enough already at retail. But they should be clear about what's going on. Are these retail waves, or online only? Be up front about it. More than half the country misses out on entire waves.

I found a stand/end cap dedicated for Elite 100 as well at Target in Lynnwood, WA. No Andre chase unfortunately, but I picked up Rey Mysterio Jr. and The Rock
