Well today’s the day and still no shipper. I never had faith, but whatever. Went to one of my Walmarts and they had them on an end cap facing the back wall, so I’m assuming they all may not be put out in a shipper. |

Up until now, It's always been an endcap. |

OH GOD, my walmart is drowning in Jerichos and Kingstons. I wish I had a ton of burn-money that I could buy all of them and dump them in a donation box just so I don't have to look at them anymore. |

Jericho and Kingston are warming so hard at all 10 or so area Wallys that I am surprised that they haven't caught on fire themselves! Or burned the store down! |

Jericho and Kingston are warming so hard at all 10 or so area Wallys that I am surprised that they haven't caught on fire themselves! Or burned the store down!  They are so unloved. So friggin unloved. And yet, the walmart shipper was the first time I saw a new Elite in two months. What is even with this distribution. Going to walmart is dangerous for me, I've gotten deathly sick TWICE in the past couple years, and both times it was after a trip to walmart. If they are going to keep refusing to stock anything of value, I'm gonna stop risking trips there entirely. i'll order my groceries online if I have to or go somewhere else. It isn't worth the 911 calls. |

The supreme line would’ve survived if they would’ve ordered those like they order these mid exclusives.

If Walmart would ever clearance this stuff out…I’d pick up a lot of the AEW figs to fill out my crowd for my arena backdrop, BUT they just sit at pretty much full retail price! It’s crazy!! One of my Walmarts on top of all the kingstons and Jericho’s still has Adam page, Britt, Miro and tons of Santana and Ortiz just rotting away not marked down in price at all. |

Not overestimating this, my Walmart has about 40 of those Eddie Kingston's. Like 8 rows across on the bottom shelf, stocked all the way to the back of the shelf. Full retail price. Plenty of those Jericho's sitting around, too. |

Finally came across the Wrestlemania Shipper Today!
There were 5 Paul Bearer's but none of them were the chase unfortunately and that's all I'm looking for out of Elite 106
They had all of the Monday Night Wars series 1. I thought maybe when I saw them in person I would change my mind and buy them but nope. Not buying any of those mid figures. I'll save my criticisms of that series for another thread
They also had all of the Wrestlemania series. I almost bought the Rock and John Cena because I need those two to finish Nicholas but they were $24.79 and I can get them on Amazon right now for $22.97 so there was no point
They also stocked Elite 105 on the shelves which was exciting. Looks like they stocked two cases but the only figure I'm still looking for in that series, Carmelo Hayes, wasn't there. I'm having a hell of a time finding that figure
So I came away with nothing but it was still exciting to actually see a store with more than a couple figures in it.

I have now seen four shippers, three of which were completely full & untouched. After my experience yesterday, at two Walmarts, the distribution appears to be doing well. Saw 145 & 146 basic, the new AEW, with Ring of honor CM punk & Brody King, and last week, the new superstars with Doink.

I rarely see any Ultimates at Walmart and I'm not sure how I'm going to find Piper/Bret.... |

So, all over the place you always see aew exclusives on the shelf, more often than not.
Where's the disconnect between Mattel and Walmart. Is this fully on Walmart? Or is it really Mattel's fault?
But, you will always see that barbie exclusive on the shelf. 🧐🤔 I truly have no clue, at this point I will no longer hold Walmart accountable.
Yup, this is Mattel's fault until proven otherwise.
The sad part? Mattel can talk all they want, but at the end of the day, they are not holding Walmart accountable, so the blame fully goes to Mattel 100%
Why does a particular Walmart in bum *** out skirts of death valley get a whole ENTIRE endcap of RA ultimates, but my store in a decent sized area get not even a case on the shelf pegs?
Don't get me started on the Canadian liquidator who had to of made close to 40 grand on that pallet of flashback baf series.
My mind won't be changed until change happens.
This is Mattel's fault 💯

I think the RA ones were 2 each and that was it, you had to hope a place got multiple cases. Hopefully we start to see stores get more than one case of these, they usually have the tags out and nothing to show for it. I'm pretty sure Jazwares sends 10 per case for those AEW exclusives and stores end up either selling half and rotting or selling through one and ordering another that rots. It's amazing I haven't ever seen them on clearance either when they have their own item tags and everything. |

I must have seen at least a couple dozen Brocks while figure hunting, but only one RVD. |

I didn't really see any stores around me that had them to begin with, but it was usually that 2 and 2 assortment whenever I did actually spot them. |

No RVD. Not saying it's impossible that RVD sold out, but it's weird that the ratio was 6 to 0. |

I didn't really see any stores around me that had them to begin with, but it was usually that 2 and 2 assortment whenever I did actually spot them. Eddie & Rey were of no interest to me - but the stores where I saw them had 2 of each. I saw a store that had two Kurt Angles (I passed on that one too). I never saw Ultimate Andre or Ultimate Razor Ramon at ANY retail store.... Never saw Ultimate Brock or Ultimate RVD at any store (my brother found them for me). I'm fully expecting Piper/Bret to be the same ratio (2 or less) - - - and that doesn't bode well for finding these. One person gets there before me & they'll both be gone. This thread does raise a valid question - I still blame Walmart, but how come they don't seem to care about over-stocking these damn AEW exclusives? Why do they act like they'll go bankrupt if they order too many WWE Ultimates and skip over NUMEROUS WWE Elite series but have no qualms about stocking these Jerichos & Kingstons up to the ceiling? And why does Target do this so much better? |
