So…no shipper at my home Walmart…but there was a stabbing there this morning. There is more of a chance of me being involved in a violent crime at my lovely Walmart than there is of finding the figures I want. I’m glad they switched the Classified Retro Card Duke, Scarlett, and Recondo to fan channel exclusives instead of just Walmart exclusives. Dude, that's crazy! Where are you? |

Shipper hasn’t hit any of the Walmarts I looked at in Pittsburgh. Swear we just don’t get them or they are sent out to greensburg North Versailles had the shipper. That's Pittsburgh-ish. |

Nothing in Cranberry as of Friday and Gibsonia usually doesn't get shippers. I wouldn't rule out Gibsonia just yet. They got the RA shipper last year. |

I don’t even know where they would put them at my stores. Too many random pallets, hot wheel dump bins, and Disney Wish, and Easter crap everywhere.

I haven't been able to check my stores lately, one of them did get the RA shipper but my Walmarts have a habit of placing them away from the toys (One McFarlane DC display was near the shoes, the aforementioned RA shipper near the greeting cards, etc.)

Neither of mine have them yet, but we tend to not see them until a week or week and a half after they hit everywhere else. Hopefully I can find them in the next week or so.

There is more of a chance of me being involved in a violent crime at my lovely Walmart than there is of finding the figures I want. I’m glad they switched the Classified Retro Card Duke, Scarlett, and Recondo to fan channel exclusives instead of just Walmart exclusives. Ah im glad you mentioned that. I collect those as well but many walmarts never got the newer figures due to lady jaye clogging the shelves. The frustrating thing is that it is a self inicted wound by some stores that refused to clearance them out. The stores that put them on sale for half off got the new batch. Im glad hasbro stepped in to help those collectors. This is what mattel should do with certain exclusives as the poster above also pointed out that some people live in dead zones where their local walmarts get nothing new, not just wwe. These are, based on conversations w/ regional walmart employees, future closed stores. Stores that just dont get enough volume and are losing money. I believe it as those are the exact stores that also have less than 6 employees at front at best. 1 or 2 behind the returns desk, one security guy, one gal checking the self scanning checkout area, 1 in the recovery area(outsourcing returns), and one at the cigarette counter/fast checkout. In my dreams, waze (app used to detect traffic conditions, etc) can help detect which stores got new shipments in. If only haha |

Got the WM Rock/Cena and MNW1 Hogan/Austin/Hall.
Hogan's left thigh is stuck with extra glue and using hit water and trying to move it basically ruined the leg and it's all loose now so that's pretty great

I'm in a financial pickle right now so I'm not even bothering to go look, but hearing so many people finding it makes me sad. I don't get paid again until Thursday and even then it wouldn't even pay for two figures.
Buying figures in store isn't really a good option for me. Honestly, any form of figure purchase that I can't put on credit or installment plans isn't a good option for me. I don't make enough money, plus, with the ACP ending, I'm going to have to start paying for internet again.
Figures are just too expensive anymore. I'm hoping and praying that the wrestlemania preorders aren't very good because I'm gonna be paying off UE 21 for the next 2 months.

Apparently I bought the set on eBay half asleep last night. 😅 More than I would’ve liked to have paid, but at least I don’t have to keep going into my Walmarts anymore.

I hit Walmart after a movie last night. No shipper…but did pick up a blaster of Prizm basketball. Ended up pulling a Silver Wemby. I always end up trying to get a silver Prizm of the big rookies every year. Saved myself 275 bucks by pulling him from a pack. |

Ahh here's why I might just bail on this series..... He's so excited he's "Jumping up and down" to find them..... so he can sell them. Folks, we are ruining this hobby. This really grinds my gears. I spent all morning Saturday driving around looking for these and found nothing. This guy will be selling them for profit tonight. If these don't hit the regular pegs/plan-o-grams and these "shippers" are the only way we're getting this, I'm out. I have no desire to play this game. I still consider Legends 11 Scott Hall to be "the defining" Scott Hall, and several other Hogans are better than this..... so I'm not even sure why I NEED these... I most definitely DON'T need them at double/triple the price.  |

He posted multiple times trying to sell people that he was excited to find them then follow up saying they are for sale lol |

I’d offer him cost + shipping. And maybe $5 extra… maybe.

This & the eBay seller JWoodz posting them on top of a Michelob Ultra 30 pack via eBay is why scalpers will never get my money. I just imagine them vaping so hard after they drove to the Walmart to buy these in the hopes of flipping them. Let them sit on these. Don’t give in to these jokers. |
